I need to access Windows API NetShareEnum. It is working fine in the post
Win98 version but the Win98 function is returning me error number 87
(Invalid parameters)
Whats I am doing wrong ?
Following is my code
Thanks

Jean-Marc, <StructLayout( LayoutKind.Sequ ential)> _ Private Structure SHARE_INFO_50 <MarshalAs(Syst em.Runtime.Inte ropServices.Unm anagedType.LPWS tr)> _ Dim netname As String Dim type As Integer Dim flags As Int32 <MarshalAs(Syst em.Runtime.Inte ropServices.Unm anagedType.LPWS tr)> _ Dim remark As String <MarshalAs(Syst em.Runtime.Inte ropServices.Unm anagedType.LPWS tr)> _ Dim path As String <MarshalAs(Syst em.Runtime.Inte ropServices.Unm anagedType.LPWS tr)> _ Dim rw_password As String <MarshalAs(Syst em.Runtime.Inte ropServices.Unm anagedType.LPWS tr)> _ Dim ro_password As String End Structure
netname, rw_password and ro_password are fixed length strings with
sizes 13, 9 and 9 respectively, so you should use
UnmangedType.By ValTStr for them.
For the other string members, you can delete the MarshalAs attribute
(or change it to use UnmanagedType.L PStr).
type should be a Byte and flags a Short.
Private Declare Ansi Function NetShareEnum98 Lib "svrapi.dll " Alias "NetShareEnu m" ( _ ByRef ServerName As String, _ ByVal level As Integer, _ ByRef BufPtr As IntPtr, _ ByRef cBuffer As Integer, _ ByRef entriesread As Integer, _ ByRef totalentries As Integer _ ) As Integer
ServerName, cBuffer and BufPtr should be passed ByVal.
All Integers except the return type should be Short.
Dim bServer As String Dim level As Integer Dim bufptr As IntPtr Dim buffer As Integer Dim dwEntriesRead As Integer = 0 Dim dwTotalEntries As Integer = 0
bufptr = Marshal.AllocHG lobal(buffer)
Since buffer is uninitialized at this point and has the default value
of 0, you're allocating a zero length buffer.

Hello
I am using NetShareEnum to enumerate all the shared folders of a
server.
If there is password set on the server, I get system error code 5
(access denied) as the return value of NetShareEnum, as expected.
However, if I know the password required to access the shares on the
server, how do I specify that in my code?

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows.

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
