SccBackgroundGet Function

This function retrieves from source control each of the specified files with no user interaction.

SCCRTN SccBackgroundGet(
   LPVOID  pContext,
   LONG    nFiles,
   LPCSTR* lpFileNames,
   LONG    dwFlags,
   LONG    dwBackgroundOperationID
);

Parameters

  • pContext
    [in] The source control plug-in context pointer.

  • nFiles
    [in] Number of files specified in the lpFileNames array.

  • lpFileNames
    [in, out] Array of names of files to be retrieved.

    Note

    The names must be fully qualified local filenames.

  • dwFlags
    [in] Command flags (SCC_GET_ALL, SCC_GET_RECURSIVE).

  • dwBackgroundOperationID
    [in] A unique value associated with this operation.

Return Value

The source control plug-in implementation of this function is expected to return one of the following values:

Value

Description

SCC_OK

Operation completed successfully.

SCC_E_BACKGROUNDGETINPROGRESS

A background retrieval is already in progress (the source control plug-in should return this only if it does not support simultaneous batch operations).

SCC_I_OPERATIONCANCELED

Operation was canceled before being completed.

Remarks

This function is always called on a thread different from the one that loaded the source control plug-in. This function is not expected to return until it is done; however, it can be called multiple times with multiple lists of files, all at the same time.

The use of the dwFlags argument is the same as the SccGet Function.
