SHARE_INFO_2 structure
Contains information about the shared resource, including name of the resource, type and permissions, and the number of current connections. For more information about controlling access to securable objects, see Access Control, Privileges, and Securable Objects.
Syntax
typedef struct _SHARE_INFO_2 { LPWSTR shi2_netname; DWORD shi2_type; LPWSTR shi2_remark; DWORD shi2_permissions; DWORD shi2_max_uses; DWORD shi2_current_uses; LPWSTR shi2_path; LPWSTR shi2_passwd; } SHARE_INFO_2, *PSHARE_INFO_2, *LPSHARE_INFO_2;
Members
- shi2_netname
-
Pointer to a Unicode string specifying the share name of a resource. Calls to the NetShareSetInfo function ignore this member.
- shi2_type
-
A combination of values that specify the type of the shared resource. Calls to the NetShareSetInfo function ignore this member.
One of the following values may be specified. You can isolate these values by using the STYPE_MASK value.
Value Meaning - STYPE_DISKTREE
Disk drive.
- STYPE_PRINTQ
Print queue.
- STYPE_DEVICE
Communication device.
- STYPE_IPC
Interprocess communication (IPC).
In addition, one or both of the following values may be specified.
Value Meaning - STYPE_SPECIAL
Special share reserved for interprocess communication (IPC$) or remote administration of the server (ADMIN$). Can also refer to administrative shares such as C$, D$, E$, and so forth. For more information, see Network Share Functions.
- STYPE_TEMPORARY
A temporary share.
- shi2_remark
-
Pointer to a Unicode string that contains an optional comment about the shared resource.
- shi2_permissions
-
Specifies a DWORD value that indicates the shared resource's permissions for servers running with share-level security. A server running user-level security ignores this member. This member can be one or more of the following values. Calls to the NetShareSetInfo function ignore this member.
Note that Windows does not support share-level security.
- shi2_max_uses
-
Specifies a DWORD value that indicates the maximum number of concurrent connections that the shared resource can accommodate. The number of connections is unlimited if the value specified in this member is –1.
- shi2_current_uses
-
Specifies a DWORD value that indicates the number of current connections to the resource. Calls to the NetShareSetInfo function ignore this member.
- shi2_path
-
Pointer to a Unicode string specifying the local path for the shared resource. For disks, shi2_path is the path being shared. For print queues, shi2_path is the name of the print queue being shared. Calls to the NetShareSetInfo function ignore this member.
- shi2_passwd
-
Pointer to a Unicode string that specifies the share's password when the server is running with share-level security. If the server is running with user-level security, this member is ignored. The shi2_passwd member can be no longer than SHPWLEN+1 bytes (including a terminating null character). Calls to the NetShareSetInfo function ignore this member. Note that Windows does not support share-level security.
