The SetAbortProc function sets the application-defined abort function that allows a print job to be canceled during spooling.
Syntax
int SetAbortProc(
[in] HDC hdc,
[in] ABORTPROC proc
);
Parameters
[in] hdc
Handle to the device context for the print job.
[in] proc
Pointer to the application-defined abort function. For more information about the callback function, see the AbortProc callback function.
Return value
If the function succeeds, the return value is greater than zero.
If the function fails, the return value is SP_ERROR.
Remarks
Note This is a blocking or synchronous function and might not return immediately. How quickly this function returns depends on run-time factors such as network status, print server configuration, and printer driver implementation—factors that are difficult to predict when writing an application. Calling this function from a thread that manages interaction with the user interface could make the application appear to be unresponsive.
Examples
For an example, see How to Collect Print Job Information from the User.
