Everything_GetResultPath

The Everything_GetResultPath function retrieves the path part of the visible result.


Syntax

LPCTSTR Everything_GetResultPath(
int index
);

Parameters

index

Zero based index of the visible result.


Return Value

The function returns a pointer to a null terminated string of TCHARs.

If the function fails the return value is NULL. To get extended error information, call Everything_GetLastError.


Error codeMeaning
EVERYTHING_ERROR_INVALIDCALLCall Everything_Query before calling Everything_GetResultPath.
EVERYTHING_ERROR_INVALIDINDEXindex must be greater than or equal to 0 and less than the visible number of results.

Remarks

The ANSI / Unicode version of this function must match the ANSI / Unicode version of the call to Everything_Query.

The function is faster than Everything_GetResultFullPathName as no memory copying occurs.

The function returns a pointer to an internal structure that is only valid until the next call to Everything_Query or Everything_Reset.

You can only call this function for a visible result. To determine if a result is visible use the Everything_GetNumFileResults function.


Example

// set the search text to abc AND 123
Everything_SetSearch("abc 123");

// execute the query
Everything_Query(TRUE);

// Get the path part of the first visible result.
LPCTSTR lpPath = Everything_GetResultPath(0);
