Synopsis

#include <dce/dce_attr_sch.h>

void dce_rgy_attr_cursor_alloc(

dce_attr_cursor_t *cursor,

error_status_t *status);

Parameters

Output

cursor
A pointer to a dce_attr_cursor_t.

status
A pointer to the completion status. On successful completion, the call returns error_status_ok. Otherwise, it returns an error.

Description
The dce_attr_sch_cursor_alloc( ) call allocates resources to a cursor used with the dce_attr_sch_scan call. This routine, which is a local operation, does not initialize cursor.

The dce_attr_sch_cursor_init( ) routine, which makes a remote call, allocates and initializes the cursor. In addition, dce_attr_sch_cursor_init( ) returns the total number of entries found in the schema as an output parameter; dce_attr_sch_cursor_alloc( ) does not.

Permissions Required
The dce_attr_sch_cursor_alloc( ) call requires appropriate permissions on the schema object. These permissions are managed by the target server.

Files

/usr/include/dce/dce_attr_base.idl
The idl file from which dce/dce_attr_base.h was derived.
