NAME¶

MIME_GetExtensionA (SHLWAPI.330)

SYNOPSIS¶

BOOL MIME_GetExtensionA
(
LPCSTR lpszType,
LPSTR lpExt,
INT iLen
)

DESCRIPTION¶

Get the file extension for a given Mime type.

PARAMS¶

lpszType [In] Mime type to get the file extension for. lpExt [Out] Destination for the resulting extension. iLen [In] Length of lpExt in characters.

RETURNS¶

Success: TRUE. lpExt contains the file extension. Failure: FALSE, if any parameter is invalid or the extension cannot be retrieved. If iLen > 0, lpExt is set to an empty string.

NOTES¶

- The extension returned in lpExt always has a leading '.' character, even if the registry Mime database entry does not. - iLen must be long enough for the file extension for this function to succeed.

IMPLEMENTATION¶

Exported by ordinal only. Use GetProcAddress(3w) to obtain a pointer to the function. Implemented in "dlls/shlwapi/reg.c". Debug channel "shell".
