sec_cred_get_extended_attrs(3sec)

Returns extended attributes from a privilege handle

Synopsis

#include <dce/sec_cred.h>

void sec_cred_get_extended_attrs(
sec_cred_pa_handle_t callers_pas,
sec_cred_attr_cursor_t *
cursor
sec_attr_t *attr
error_status_t *status);

Parameters

Input

callers_pas
A handle of type sec_cred_pa_handle_t to the caller's privilege attributes. This handle is supplied as output of either the sec_cred_get_initiator(~) call or sec_cred_get_delegate( ) call.

Input/Output

cursor
A cursor of type sec_cred_attr_cursor_t that has been initialized by the sec_cred_initialize_attr_cursor( ) routine. As input cursor must be initialized. As output, cursor is positioned at the first attribute after the returned attribute.

Output

attr
A pointer to a value of sec_attr_t that contains extended registry attributes.

status
A pointer to the completion status. On successful completion, status is assigned error_status_ok.

Description
The sec_cred_get_extended_attrs( ) routine extracts extended registry initialized from the privilege attribute handle identified by callers_pas.

Before you execute call, you must execute:

· A sec_cred_get_initiator( ) or sec_cred_get_delegate( ) call to obtain a sec_cred_pa_handle_t for the callers_pas parameter.

· A sec_cred_initialize_attr_cursor( ) to initialize a sec_attr_t.

To obtain all the extended registry attributes in the privilege attribute handle, repeat sec_cred_get_extended_attrs( ) calls until the status message no_more_entries_available is returned.
