rpc_ns_profile_elt_inq_next(3rpc)
Returns one element at a time from a profile
Used by client, server, or management applications.
Synopsis
#include <dce/rpc.h>
void rpc_ns_profile_elt_inq_next(
rpc_ns_handle_t inquiry_context,
rpc_if_id_t *if_id,
unsigned_char_t **member_name,
unsigned32 *priority,
unsigned_char_t **annotation,
unsigned32 *status);
Parameters
Input
inquiry_context
Specifies a name service handle. This handle is returned from the rpc_ns_profile_elt_inq_begin( ) routine.
Output
if_id
Returns the interface identifier of the profile element.
member_name
Returns a pointer to the profile element's member name. The name is a global name.
The syntax of the returned name is specified by the member_name_syntax parameter in rpc_ns_profile_elt_inq_begin( ).
Specify NULL to prevent the routine from returning this parameter. In this case the application does not call rpc_string_free( ).
priority
Returns the profile element priority.
annotation
Returns the annotation string for the profile element. If there is no annotation string in the profile element, the string 0 is returned.
Specify NULL to prevent the routine from returning this parameter. In this case the application does not need to call the rpc_string_free( ) routine.
status
Returns the status code from this routine. This status code indicates whether the routine completed successfully or, if not, why not.
Description
The rpc_ns_profile_elt_inq_next( ) routine returns one element from the profile specified by the profile_name parameter in the
rpc_ns_profile_elt_inq_begin(~) routine.
The selection criteria for the element returned are based on the inquiry_type parameter in the rpc_ns_profile_elt_inq_begin( ) routine. The rpc_ns_profile_elt_inq_next( ) routine returns all the components (interface identifier, member name, priority, annotation string) of a profile element.
An application can view all the selected profile entries by repeatedly calling the rpc_ns_profile_elt_inq_next( ) routine. When all the elements have been viewed, this routine returns an rpc_s_no_more_elements status code. The returned elements are unordered.
On each call to this routine that returns a profile element, the DCE RPC runtime allocates memory for the returned member_name (which points to a global name) and annotation strings. The application is responsible for calling the rpc_string_free( ) routine for each returned member_name and annotation string.
After viewing the profile's elements, the application must call the rpc_ns_profile_elt_inq_done( ) routine to delete the inquiry context.
Permissions Required
You need read permission to the CDS object entry (the target profile entry).

No value is returned.
