3.20.9.4 IWindowsDriverUpdate::DriverModel (Opnum 56)

  • Article

The IWindowsDriverUpdate::DriverModel (opnum 56) method retrieves the language-invariant model name of the device for which this driver is intended.

 HRESULT DriverModel(
   [out, retval] BSTR* retval
 );

retval: A string containing the language-invariant model name of the device for which this driver is intended.

Return Values: The method MUST return information in an HRESULT data structure. The severity bit in the structure identifies the following conditions:

  • If the severity bit is set to 0, the method completed successfully.

  • If the severity bit is set to 1, the method failed and encountered a fatal error.

Exceptions Thrown: No exceptions are thrown beyond those thrown by the underlying RPC protocol [MS-RPCE].

This method SHOULD return the string returned by a call to the DriverModel method on the IWindowsDriverUpdateEntry instance referred to by the DefaultWindowsDriverUpdateEntry ADM element.
