D_PSDEV_GETDEVTYPE (PostScript device plugins)

This page applies to Harlequin v13.1r0 and later; and to Harlequin MultiRIP but not Harlequin Core

D_PSDEV_GETDEVTYPE Selector

Parameter: D_PSDEV_GETDEVTYPE * PSDeviceTypeParam

Call type: Multiple‐call

This selector is called once for each of the number of device types as indicated by the reply to D_PSDEV_NUMDEVICETYPES and provides the RIP with DEVICETYPE details for the n th PSDEV device type.

For safety the size of the DEVICETYPE structure must be recorded here. This allows backwards compatible changes to the DEVICETYPE structure to be made, and the RIP can still use the pluginʹs version of them.

TEXT

    typedef struct getPSDeviceTypeParam { uint32 cbDeviceType ;
    uint32 iDevType ; DEVICETYPE * pDevType ;
    } GetPSDeviceTypeParam ;

cbDeviceType

The size of the DEVICETYPE structure which will be returned.

iDevType

The number of the DEVICETYPE that the plugin should return, starting from 0.

pDevType

The plugin must update this value with its iDevType-th DEVICETYPE structure. The RIP will take a copy of this structure and use this copy internally.
