[Windows platform only; not supported by the Community Edition]

Initialize enumeration of all available output devices. After this method has been called, you can retrieve each single device name with the method VpeGetDevEntry().

int VpeDevEnum(

VpeHandle hDoc

)

VpeHandle hDoc

Document Handle

Returns:

the number of printing devices installed in the system

Remarks:

Do not call VpeDevEnum() in a loop like "for x = 0 to VpeDevEnum(hDoc) - 1", because each time VPE will check for all available devices, which is time-consuming. Rather assign the value of VpeDevEnum() to a variable.

Example:

see VpeGetDevEntry()
