The BLOB structure, derived from Binary Large Object, contains information about a block of data.
Syntax
typedef struct _BLOB {
ULONG cbSize;
#if ...
BYTE *pBlobData;
#else
BYTE *pBlobData;
#endif
} BLOB, *LPBLOB;
Members
cbSize
Size of the block of data pointed to by pBlobData, in bytes.
pBlobData
Pointer to a block of data.
Remarks
The structure name BLOB comes from the acronym BLOB, which stands for Binary Large Object.
This structure does not describe the nature of the data pointed to by pBlobData.
Note Windows Sockets defines a similar
BLOB structure in Wtypes.h. Using both header files in the same source code file creates redefinition–compile time errors.
