SERVICE_ADDRESS structure

The SERVICE_ADDRESS structure contains address information for a service. The structure can accommodate many types of interprocess communications (IPC) mechanisms and their address forms, including remote procedure calls (RPC), named pipes, and sockets.

Syntax

typedef struct _SERVICE_ADDRESS {
  DWORD dwAddressType;
  DWORD dwAddressFlags;
  DWORD dwAddressLength;
  DWORD dwPrincipalLength;
  BYTE  *lpAddress;
  BYTE  *lpPrincipal;
} SERVICE_ADDRESS;

Members

dwAddressType

Type: DWORD

The address family to which the socket address pointed to by lpAddress member belongs.

dwAddressFlags

Type: DWORD

A set of bit flags that specify properties of the address. The following bit flags are defined.

Value	Meaning
SERVICE_ADDRESS_FLAG_RPC_CN	If this bit flag is set, the service supports connection-oriented RPC over this transport protocol.
SERVICE_ADDRESS_FLAG_RPC_DG	If this bit flag is set, the service supports datagram-oriented RPC over this transport protocol.
SERVICE_ADDRESS_FLAG_RPC_NB	If this bit flag is set, the service supports NetBIOS RPC over this transport protocol.

 

dwAddressLength

Type: DWORD

The size, in bytes, of the address.

dwPrincipalLength

Type: DWORD

Reserved for future use. Must be zero.

lpAddress

Type: BYTE*
