Error Messages and Status Codes
Action: Do not declare a pointer to data type <kw>(handle_t), except as a parameter.
0x13283068 NIDL_HANFIRSTPRM
Severity: Varies Component: idl
Text: A handle_t as other than the first parameter requires a [transmit_as]
Explanation: Data type <kw>(handle_t) is only meaningful when used as the data type
of the first parameter in an operation. A bound handle is used to deliver the call to the
correct server of the interface. A bound <kw>(handle_t) parameter itself is not
transmittable. When the <kw>(handle_t) type is used in other than the first parameter, it
must have a <kw>([transmit_as]) clause to convert it to a transmittable type.
Action: Use data type <kw>(handle_t) only as the data type of the first parameter in an
operation, unless the defined data type has a <kw>([transmit_as]) clause.
0x13283069 NIDL_HANPIPEBASE
Severity: Varies Component: idl
Text: The base type of a pipe cannot be handle_t
Explanation: Data type <kw>(handle_t) is only meaningful when used as the data type
of the first parameter in an operation. It is used to establish a binding to a server of the
interface.
Action: Do not declare pipes whose base type is <kw>(handle_t).
0x1328306a NIDL_HANPRMIN
Severity: Varies Component: idl
Text: A handle_t binding parameter must be an [in] parameter
Explanation: A parameter of type <kw>(handle_t) as the first parameter in an operation
establishes a binding to a server of the interface. It must be an <kw>([in]) parameter
only.
Action: Remove the <kw>([out]) attribute from the <kw>(handle_t) parameter.
0x1328306b NIDL_HANSTRFLD
Severity: Varies Component: idl
Text: Structure fields cannot be of type handle_t
Explanation: Data type <kw>(handle_t) is only meaningful when used as the data type
of the first parameter in an operation. It is used to establish a binding to a server of the
interface.
Action: Do not declare structure fields of data type <kw>(handle_t).
