# I\_RpcGetBuffer(3w)

## NAME

**I\_RpcGetBuffer** (RPCRT4.@)

## SYNOPSIS

RPC\_STATUS I\_RpcGetBuffer\
  (\
   PRPC\_MESSAGE *pMsg*\
  )

## DESCRIPTION

Allocates a buffer for use by I\_RpcSend or I\_RpcSendReceive and binds to the server interface.

## PARAMS

## RETURNS

**Success:** **RPC\_S\_OK**.

**Failure:** **RPC\_S\_INVALID\_BINDING** if *pMsg-\>Handle* is invalid. **RPC\_S\_SERVER\_UNAVAILABLE** if unable to connect to server. **ERROR\_OUTOFMEMORY** if buffer allocation failed.
