Jump to: navigation, search

This call returns the current settings of the palette registers, overscan (border) colour, blink/background intensity switch, colour registers, underline location, or target VioSetMode display configuration.

Syntax

VioGetState (RequestBlock, VioHandle)

Parameters

RequestBlock (PVOID) - input/output 
Address of the video state structures consisting of six different structures depending on the request type: 
Type        Definition
0      Get palette registers
1      Get overscan (border) color
2      Get blink/background intensity switch
3      Get color registers
4      Reserved
5      Get the scan line for underlining
6      Get target VioSetMode display configuration.
7      Reserved
The six structures, depending on request type, are:
VIOPALSTATE
Applies to EGA, VGA, or IBM Personal System/2 Display Adapter.
length (USHORT) - input : Length of structure, including length.
38 Maximum valid value.
type (USHORT) - input : Request type 0 for palette registers.
palette (USHORT) - input: First palette register in the palette register sequence; must be specified in the range 0 through 15. The palette registers are returned in sequential order. The number returned is based upon length.
color (USHORT*(length-6)/2) - output:Color value for each palette register. The maximum number of entries in the color value array is 16.
VIOOVERSCAN
Applies to CGA, VGA, or IBM Personal System/2 Display Adapter.
length (USHORT) - input : Length of structure, including length. Only valid value.
type (USHORT) - input : Request type 1 for overscan (border) color.
color (USHORT) - input : Color value.
VIOINTENSITY
Applies to CGA, EGA, MCGA, VGA, or IBM Personal System/2 Display Adapter.
length (USHORT) - input: Length of structure, including length. Only valid value.
type (USHORT) - input: Request type 2 for blink/background intensity switch.
switch (USHORT) - output: Switch set as:
0 Blinking foreground colors enabled.
1 High intensity background colors enabled.
VIOCOLORREG
Applies to VGA, or IBM Personal System/2 Display Adapter.
length (USHORT) - input : Length of structure, including length. 
12     Length in bytes.
type (USHORT) - input : Request type 3 for color registers.
first color (USHORT) - input : First color register to get in the color register sequence; must be specified in the range 0 through 255. The color registers are returned in sequential order.
number color (USHORT) - input : Number of color registers to get; must be specified in the range 1 through 256.
datarea (PCH) - input : Far address of a data area where the color registers are returned. The size of the data area must be three bytes times the number of color registers to get. The format of each entry returned is as follows: 
Byte 1  Red value
Byte 2  Green value
Byte 3  Blue value
VIOSETULINELOC
Applies to EGA, VGA, or IBM Personal System/2 Display Adapter.
length (USHORT) - input : Length of structure, including length. Length in bytes.
type (USHORT) - input : Request type 5 to get the scan line for underlining. Underlining is enabled only when the foreground color is 1 or 9.
scanline (USHORT) - output : The value returned is in the range 0 through 31 and is the scan line minus 1. A value of 32 means underlining is disabled.
VIOSETTARGET
length (USHORT) - input : Length of structure, including length. Length in bytes.
type (USHORT) - input : Request type 6 to get display configuration selected to be the target of the next VioSetMode.
select (USHORT) - output:Configuration:
0 Default selection algorithm. See VioSetMode.
1 Primary
2 Secondary
VioHandle (HVIO) - input 
Reserved word of 0s.

Return Code

rc (USHORT) - return
Return code descriptions are:
  • 0 NO_ERROR
  • 355 ERROR_VIO_MODE
  • 421 ERROR_VIO_INVALID_PARMS
  • 436 ERROR_VIO_INVALID_HANDLE
  • 438 ERROR_VIO_INVALID_LENGTH
  • 465 ERROR_VIO_DETACHED
  • 494 ERROR_VIO_EXTENDED_SG

Remarks

Family API Considerations

Request type = 6, Get Target VioSetMode Display Configuration, and request type = 5, Get Underline Location, are not supported in the family API.
