NAME

SYNOPSIS

#include <dce/dce_cf.h>

void dce_cf_get_csrgy_filename(
        char **csrgy_filename,
        error_status_t *status);

PARAMETERS

Input

None.

Input/Output

csrgy_filename

The address of a string pointer. This pointer will be set by the function to point to a buffer that contains the pathname to the code set registry file.

Output

status

Returns the status code from this operation. The status code is a value that indicates whether the routine completed successfully and if not, why not.

Possible status codes and their meanings are as follows:

dce_cf_st_ok

Operation successfully completed.

dce_cf_e_file_open

File open error.

dce_cf_e_no_mem

No memory available.

DESCRIPTION

The dce_cf_get_csrgy_filename() routine is a DCE function that returns the pathname of a code set registry file that has been created on a given host with the csrc utility. DCE RPC routines for code set interoperability use this routine when they need to locate a host's code set registry file in order to map between unique code set identifiers and their operating system-specific local code set names, or to obtain supported code sets for a client or server. User-written code set interoperability routines can also use the routine.

The dce_cf_get_csrgy_filename() routine searches the DCE configuration file for the name of the local host's code set registry file, allocates a buffer for it (by a call to malloc()), copies the name into the buffer, and returns its address in the csrgy_filename input parameter.

CAUTIONS

The memory for a returned name string is allocated by malloc(), and must be freed by the caller of dce_cf_get_csrgy_filename().

The DCE 1.0 verion of this routine is limited to processing lines of text whose length is less than 1024 characters.

FILES

dcelocal/dce_cf.db

The machine's local DCE configuration file (where dcelocal is usually something like /opt/dcelocal).

RETURN VALUES

No value is returned.
