CS_RETCODE srv_regwatch(spp, proc_namep, namelen, 
                    options, infop)

CS_INT                options;
CS_INT              *infop;

namelen: The length of the procedure name. If the procedure name is null terminated, namelen can be CS_NULLTERM.

**Table 3-103: Values for options (srv_regwatch)**
Value	Description
SRV_NOTIFY_ONCE	After the first notification, the client thread is removed from the notification list for the procedure.

Table 3-104 describes the possible values returned in *infop if srv_regwatch returns CS_FAIL:

**Table 3-104: Values for infop (srv_regwatch)**
Value	Description
SRV_I_PNOTKNOWN	The procedure is not known to the Open Server application. The thread was not added to the notification list.
SRV_I_PINVOPT	An invalid options value was specified. The thread was not added to the notification list.
SRV_I_PNOTCLIENT	A non-client thread was specified. The thread was not added to the notification list.
SRV_I_PNOTIFYEXISTS	The thread is al&ready on the notification list for the specified procedure.

**Table 3-105: Return values (srv_regwatch)**

srv_regwatch adds a thread to the list of threads to notify when the specified procedure executes.
The options flag specifies whether the thread is notified every time the procedure executes or just once—the next time the procedure executes.
Use srv_regnowatch to cancel a notification request.
