Profile Search Result Reference

A search result consists of a list of profiles matching certain search criteria. When your application calls the CMNewProfileSearch function (page 3-133) or the CMProfileIdentifierFolderSearch function (page 3-139) to search in the ColorSyncTM Profiles folder for profiles that meet certain criteria, the ColorSync Manager returns a reference to an internal private data structure containing the search result. Your application passes the search result reference to these ColorSync functions:

• CMUpdateProfileSearch (page 3-135) updates a search result list.
• CMDisposeProfileSearch (page 3-136) disposes of a search result list.
• CMSearchGetIndProfile (page 3-137) opens a reference to a profile at a specific position in a search result list.
• CMSearchGetIndProfileFileSpec (page 3-138) obtains the file specification for a profile in a search result list.

The ColorSync Manager defines an abstract private data structure of type CMPrivateProfileSearchResult for the search result reference.

struct CMPrivateProfileSearchResult *CMProfileSearchRef;
