SetUnnamedArg

The SetUnnamedArg method sets an unnamed argument for the current extension command.

bool
  ExtExtension::SetUnnamedArg(
    IN ULONG  Index,
    IN OPTIONAL PCSTR  StrArg,
    IN ULONG64  NumArg,
    IN bool  OnlyIfUnset = false
    ) throw(...)

Parameters

Index
Specifies the index of the argument. Index should be between zero and the number of unnamed arguments, as specified in the command-line description used in EXT_COMMAND, minus one (unnamed arguments - 1).
StrArg
A string that specifies the value of the unnamed argument.

If the argument is of type string, a pointer to the first non-space character is saved as the argument. In this case, StrArg must not be NULL.

If the argument is of type expression, StrArg is evaluated using the default expression evaluator and the value returned by the default expression evaluator becomes the value of the argument. In this case, StrArg can be NULL and NumArg should be used instead.

If the argument is of type Boolean, StrArg is ignored and can be NULL.

NumArg
Specifies the value of an unnamed expression argument. NumArg is only used if the argument is of type expression and StrArg is NULL.
OnlyIfUnset
Specifies what happens if the argument is already set. If OnlyIfUnset is true and the argument has already been set, the argument will not be changed. If OnlyIfUnset is false and the argument has already been set, the argument will be changed.

Return Value

SetUnnamedArg returns true if the argument was changed; false otherwise.
