NAMECMCICLientFT.associatorNames() - Enumerate ObjectPaths associated with
an Instance
SYNOPSIS
#include <cmci.h>
CMPIEnumeration*
CMCIClientFT.associatorNames(CMCIClient*cl,
CMPIObjectPath*op,
constchar*assocClass,
constchar*resultClass,
constchar*role,
constchar*resultRole,
CMPIStatus*rc);
DESCRIPTION
Enumerate ObjectPath references associated with the Instance defined by
op reference.
Arguments are the client object pointer cl, an ObjectPath object
pointer op with the reference that contains namespace and classname
components, assocClass, where if it's not NULL is an association class
name that is used to filter the returned set of ObjectPath objects by
eliminating objects that aren't associated to the source object by an
instance of this class or one of its subclasses, resultClass, where if
it's not NULL is a valid class name that is used to filter the returned
set of Objects by eliminating objects that aren't an Instance of this
Class or one of its subclasses, role, where if it's not NULL is a valid
property name that is used to filter the returned set of ObjectPath
objects by eliminating objects that aren't associated to the source
object by an association where the source object plays the specified
role, i.e. the name of the property in the association class that
refers to the source object has to match the value of this parameter,
resultRole, where if it's not NULL is a valid property name that is
used to filter the returned set of ObjectPath objects by eliminating
objects that aren't associated to the source object by an association
where the returned object plays the specified role, i.e. the name of
the property in the association class that refers to the returned
object has to match the value of this parameter, rc which returns the
operation status (suppressed when NULL).
The flags argument is a bit mask that can contains the following flags
- CMPI_FLAG_IncludeQualifiers and CMPI_FLAG_IncludeClassOrigin.
RETURN VALUE
When successful the CMCIClientFT.associatorNames() function returns a
pointer to a CMPIEnumeration object that contains the ObjectPath
objects found for the class that match the association criteria and
sets a successful operation status code in rc. When unsuccessful it
returns a NULL pointer and sets the operation status error code and
corresponding error string in rc.
