Miscellaneous Registry Routines

The registry API includes a few miscellaneous routines, as follows:

· sec_rgy_login_get_info( )

Returns login information for the specified account.

· sec_rgy_login_get_effective( )

Applies local overrides (if such data is available) to registry account information and returns information about which account information fields have been overridden

· sec_rgy_wait_until_consistent( )

Blocks until all previous database updates have been propagated to all sites. This is useful for applications that first bind and write to an update site, and then bind to an arbitrary query site and depend upon up-to-date information.

Note: The sec_rgy_wait_until_consistent( ) routine is not available in DCE Release 1.0 Version 1.0.2.

· sec_rgy_cursor_reset( )

Resets the database cursor to return the first suitable entry
