| My comment: |
|
This function is provided only for compatibility with 16-bit Windows-based applications. Applications should store initialization information in the registry.
Calls to profile functions might be mapped to the registry instead of to the initialization files. When the operation has been mapped, the GetPrivateProfileSectionNames function retrieves information from the registry, not from the initialization file; the change in the storage location has no effect on the function"s behavior. |
