L_LTFIL_API L_SSIZE_T L_GetIgnoreFilters(pszFilters, uSize);

L_TCHAR * pszFilters;	/* character string to be updated with filters */
L_SIZE_T uSize;	/* size in bytes of pszFilters */

Retrieves the current ignored filters list that LEADTOOLS should never load, even if present.

Parameter	Description
pszFilters	Pointer to a character string to be updated with the current ignored filters list.
uSize	The size in bytes of the buffer pointed to by pszFilters.

Returns

>=0	The size in bytes of the ignored filters list.

Comments

In case the current ignored filters list should be changed, call this function before calling the L_IgnoreFilters function.

To retrieve the ignored filters list, the user should do the following:

1.	Call the function passing pszFilters as NULL and uSize as 0 to retrieve the size required for the filters list as returned value.
2.	Allocate a buffer of size (Returned Value * sizeof(L_TCHAR)).
3.	Call the function passing the allocated buffer to the pszFilters and the returned value to uSize to retrieve the filters list.
