srv_props

Description

Define and retrieve Open Server properties.

Syntax

CS_RETCODE srv_props(cp, cmd, property, bufp, buflen,
                 outlenp)

CS_CONTEXT       *cp;
CS_INT           cmd;
CS_INT           property;
CS_VOID          *bufp;
CS_INT           buflen;
CS_INT           *outlenp;

Parameters

scp: A pointer to a CS_CONTEXT structure previously allocated using cs_ctx_alloc.

cmd

The action to take. Table 3-81 summarizes the legal values for cmd:

**Table 3-81: Values for cmd (srv_props)**
Value	Meaning
CS_SET	The Open Server application is setting the property. In this case, bufp should contain the value the property is to be set to, and buflen should specify the size, in bytes, of that value.
CS_GET	The Open Server application is retrieving the property. In this case, bufp should point to the buffer where the property value is placed, and buflen should be the size, in bytes, of the buffer.
CS_CLEAR	The Open Server application is resetting the property to its default value. In this case, bufp, buflen, and outlenp are ignored.

property: The property being set, retrieved or cleared. See below for a list of this argument’s legal values.

bufp: A pointer to the Open Server application data buffer where property value information is placed (CS_SET) or property value information is retrieved (CS_GET).

buflen: The length, in bytes, of the buffer.

outlenp: A pointer to a CS_INT variable, which Open Server will set to the size, in bytes, of the property value retrieved. This argument is only used when cmd is CS_GET, and is optional.

Returns

**Table 3-82: Return values (srv_props)**
Returns	To indicate
CS_SUCCEED	The routine completed successfully.
CS_FAIL	The routine failed.

  (CS_INT *)0));

Usage

srv_props is called to define and retrieve server-wide configuration parameters and properties.

srv_version must be called before srv_props can be called.
All properties to be set by srv_props (except SRV_S_TRACEFLAG, SRV_S_LOGFILE, and SRV_S_TRUNCATELOG) must be set before srv_init is called.
After srv_init is called, setting the SRV_S_LOGFILE property with bufp set to an empty string ("") and buflen set to zero will close the log file.

All server properties that have a default and are settable can be reset back to the default value by calling srv_props with cmd set to CS_CLEAR.

All server properties can be retrieved at any time by calling srv_props with cmd set to CS_GET. If the Open Server application has not defined a value for a property, the default value is returned.

For a description of properties, see the Properties topic page.

When a property is being retrieved, if buflen indicates that the user buffer is not big enough to hold the property value, Open Server will place the number of bytes required in *outlenp, and the user buffer will not be modified.

The default stacksize (default value for SRV_S_STACKSIZE) depends on the platform used.

For native-threaded versions of Open Server, the default stacksize of underlying threads is used. This value can be changed by setting the stacksize with the SRV_S_STACKSIZE property.

Note that when setting the stacksize, stack overflow errors may occur if the specified stacksize is too small.
