FltSetInformationFile sets information for a given file.
Opaque instance pointer for the caller. This parameter is required and cannot be NULL.
File object pointer for the file. This parameter is required and cannot be NULL.
Pointer to a caller-allocated buffer that contains information to be set for the file. The FileInformationClass parameter specifies the type of information. This parameter is required and cannot be NULL.
Size, in bytes, of the FileInformation buffer.
Specifies the type of information to be set for the file. The following values are defined.
| Value | Meaning |

| FileValidDataLengthInformation | Set FILE_VALID_DATA_LENGTH_INFORMATION for the file. |
FltSetInformationFile returns STATUS_SUCCESS or an appropriate NTSTATUS value.
A minifilter driver calls FltSetInformationFile to set information for a given file. The file must currently be open.
A file rename operation imposes the following restriction on the parameter values passed to FltSetInformationFile: As noted in the reference entry for FILE_RENAME_INFORMATION, a file or directory can only be renamed within a volume. In other words, a rename operation cannot cause a file or directory to be moved to a different volume. Unlike ZwSetInformationFile, FltSetInformationFile does not validate the contents of the FILE_RENAME_INFORMATION structure. Thus the caller of FltSetInformationFile is responsible for ensuring that the new name for the file or directory is on the same volume as the old name.
Minifilter drivers must use FltSetInformationFile , not ZwSetInformationFile, to rename a file.
