NAME dce_attr_sch_cursor_init - Initialize and allocate a cursor used with the dce_attr_sch_scan call SYNOPSIS #include <dce/dce_attr_base.h> void dce_rgy_attr_cursor_init( dce_attr_sch_handle_t h, unsigned32 *cur_num_entries, dce_attr_cursor_t *cursor, error_status_t *status ); PARAMETERS Input h An opaque handle bound to a schema object. Use dce_attr_sch_bind() to acquire the handle. Output cur_num_entries A pointer to an unsigned 32-bit integer that specifies the total number of entries contained in the schema at the time of this call. cursor A pointer to a dce_attr_cursor_t that is initialized to the first entry in the the schema. 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_init() call initializes and allocates a cursor used with the dce_attr_sch_scan call. This call makes remote calls to initialize the cursor. To limit the number of remote calls, use the dce_attr_sch_cursor_alloc() call to allocate cursor, but not initialize it. If the cursor input to dce_attr_sch_scan has not been initialized, dce_attr_sch_scan call will initialize it; if it has been initialized, dce_attr_sch_scan advances it. Unlike the dce_attr_sch_cursor_alloc() call, the dce_attr_sch_cursor_init() call supplies the total number of entries found in the schema as an output parameter. Permissions Required None.
