NdisInitAnsiString

NdisInitAnsiString initializes a counted ANSI string.

VOID
  NdisInitAnsiString(
    IN OUT PANSI_STRING  DestinationString,
    IN PCSTR  SourceString
    );

Parameters

DestinationString
Pointer to a caller-allocated buffer in which this function should store the counted ANSI string.
SourceString
Pointer to a zero-terminated string with which to initialize the counted string.

Headers

Declared in Ndis.h. Include Ndis.h.

Comments

The DestinationString is initialized to point to the SourceString. The length and maximum length for the DestinationString are initialized to the length of the string at SourceString. If SourceString is NULL, the length is zero.

Callers of NdisInitAnsiString can be running at IRQL <= DISPATCH_LEVEL if the DestinationString buffer is allocated from nonpaged memory. Usually, callers are running at IRQL = PASSIVE_LEVEL during driver initialization.
