SymSrvIsStore Function

Determines whether the specified path is a symbol store.

BOOL WINAPI SymSrvIsStore(
  __in_opt      HANDLE hProcess,
  __in          PCTSTR path
);

Parameters

hProcess

A handle to a process. This handle must have been previously passed to the SymInitialize function.

path

The path.

Return Value

If the path specifies a symbol store, the function returns TRUE. Otherwise, it returns FALSE.

Remarks

This function is correct except in the rare circumstance that the path is a downstream symbol store that has never been accessed using a version of SymSrv.dll that is at least as recent as the one being called.

All DbgHelp functions, such as this one, are single threaded. Therefore, calls from more than one thread to this function will likely result in unexpected behavior or memory corruption. To avoid this, you must synchronize all concurrent calls from more than one thread to this function.

To call the Unicode version of this function, define DBGHELP_TRANSLATE_TCHAR.

Requirements

Redistributable	Requires DbgHelp.dll 6.3 or later.
Header	Declared in DbgHelp.h.
Library	Use Dbghelp.lib.
DLL	Requires Dbghelp.dll.
