The SetDocFileProps method can be used in multi-threading situations to avoid conflicts between multiple applications or multiple threads requesting simultaneous access the Converter products. The CDIntf library uses the registry to interact with the printer drivers. This can cause conflicts when multiple applications use CDIntf to access the printer drivers.
System.Int32 SetDocFileProps(System.String szDocTitle, System.Int32 lOptions, System.String szFileDir, System.String szFileName)
int SetDocFileProps(HANDLE hPrinter, LPCSTR szDocTitle, long lOptions, LPCSTR szFileDir, LPCSTR szFileName)
szDocTitle
The document title as it appears in the print spooler when printing any document, this should be the same as the parameter szLockName used for Lock and Unlock.
lOptions
Output file name options equivalent to the function FileNameOptionsEx.
szFileDir
Destination directory, equivalent to the DefaultDirectory function call.
szFileName
Output file name, equivalent to the function DefaultFileName.
hPrinter
Handle to printer returned by any of the DriverInit function calls.
The return value is 0 if the function is successful or a Windows specific error code if the function fails.
This method replaces the properties DefaultDirectory, DefaultFileName and FileNameOptionsEx in the cases where print job locking is needed. The documentation for these three functions contains a complete description of the lOptions, szFileDir and szFileName parameters.
This method needs to be placed after the Lock Method. Otherwise, it won' t work properly.
