NAME
UrlGetLocationA (SHLWAPI.@)
SYNOPSIS
LPCSTR UrlGetLocationA
(
LPCSTR pszUrl
)
DESCRIPTION
Get the location from a Url.
PARAMS
pszUrl [In] Url to get the location from.
RETURNS
A pointer to the start of the location in pszUrl, or NULL if there is no location.
NOTES
- MSDN erroneously states that "The location is the segment of the Url starting with a '?' or '#' character". Neither V4 nor V5 of shlwapi.dll stop at '?' and always return a NULL in this case.
- MSDN also erroneously states that "If a file Url has a query string, the returned string is the query string". In all tested cases, if the Url starts with "fi" then a NULL is returned. V5 gives the following results:
Result Url
------ ---
NULL file://aa/b/cd#hohoh
#hohoh http://aa/b/cd#hohoh
NULL fi://aa/b/cd#hohoh
#hohoh ff://aa/b/cd#hohoh
