NAME

   rpc_ns_profile_elt_inq_next - 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.  The possible status codes and their meanings are as
       follows:

       rpc_s_ok       Success.

       rpc_s_class_version_mismatch
                      RPC class version mismatch.

       rpc_s_entry_not_found
                      Name service entry not found.

       rpc_s_incomplete_name
                      Incomplete name.

       rpc_s_invalid_ns_handle
                      Invalid name service handle.

       rpc_s_name_service_unavailable
                      Name service unavailable.

       rpc_s_no_more_elements
                      No more elements.

       rpc_s_no_ns_permission
                      No permission for name service operation.

       rpc_s_not_rpc_entry
                      Not an RPC entry.

 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).

 RETURN VALUES

   No value is returned.
