The eimListRegistriesAliases() function returns a list of all the aliases defined for a particular registry.


Authorities and Locks

EIM Data
Access to EIM data is controlled by EIM access groups. LDAP administrators also have access to EIM data. The access groups whose members have authority to the EIM data for this API follow:

The list returned contains only the information that the user has authority to access.


Parameters

eim  (Input)
The EIM handle returned by a previous call to eimCreateHandle(). A valid connection is required for this function.

registryName  (Input)
The name of the registry for which to list aliases.

lengthOfListData  (Input)
The number of bytes provided by the caller for the listData parameter. The minimum size required is 20 bytes.

listData  (Output)
A pointer to the data to be returned.

The EimList structure contains information about the returned data. The API will return as much data as space has been provided. The data returned is a linked list of EimRegistryAlias structures. firstEntry is used to get to the first EimRegistryAlias structure in the linked list.

EimList structure:

        typedef struct EimList
        {
            unsigned int bytesReturned;     /* Number of bytes actually returned
                                             by the API                       */
            unsigned int bytesAvailable;    /* Number of bytes of available data
                                             that could have been returned by
                                             the API                          */
            unsigned int entriesReturned;   /* Number of entries actually
                                             returned by the API              */
            unsigned int entriesAvailable;  /* Number of entries available to be
                                             returned by the API              */
            unsigned int firstEntry;        /* Displacement to the first linked
                                             list entry. This byte offset is
                                             relative to the start of the
                                             EimList structure.               */
        } EimList;

EimRegistryAlias structure:

        typedef struct EimRegistryAlias
        {
            unsigned int nextEntry;         /* Displacement to next entry.  This
                                             byte offset is relative to the
                                             start of this structure          */
            EimListData type;               /* Alias type                     */
            EimListData value;              /* Alias value                    */
        } EimRegistryAlias;

EimListData structure:

        typedef struct EimListData
        {
            unsigned int length;            /* Length of data                 */
            unsigned int disp;              /* Displacement to data.  This byte
                                             offset is relative to the start of
                                             the parent structure; that is, the
                                             structure containing this
                                             structure.                       */
        } EimListData;


eimrc  (Input/Output)
The structure in which to return error code information. If the return value is not 0, eimrc is set with additional information. This parameter may be NULL. For the format of the structure, see EimRC--EIM Return Code Parameter.

Return Value

The return value from the API. Following each return value is the list of possible values for the messageCatalogMessageID field in the eimrc parameter for that value.
