<h1 class="topictitle1">cwbUN_GetAdminValueEx</h1>
<div><p><strong>Purpose</strong></p>
<p>This API returns an indication of whether the current user on the specified iSeries™ server
is allowed or denied use of a specific administrable function. An <span class="uicontrol">Administrable
function</span> is any function whose use can be controlled through the
Application Administration subcomponent of iSeries Navigator.</p>
<div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:</span> iSeries Navigator
plug-ins should use the cwbUN_GetAdminValue API instead of cwbUN_GetAdminValueEx.</div>
<p>For example, the Application Administration subcomponent allows an administrator
to control whether a user can access several functions in iSeries Navigator.
One of these functions is 'Job Management'. The cwbUN_GetAdminValueEx API
can be used to programmatically determine if the current user can use the
Job Management function by specifying the name of the Administrable function
that corresponds to Job Management. See the CWBUNPLA.H header file for a list
of Administrable function names that are supported in iSeries Navigator.</p>
<p>This API provides the same function as cwbUN_GetAdminValue, except that
it is designed to accept a system object handle instead of a system name.</p>
<p><strong>Syntax</strong></p>
<pre>CWBAPI unsigned int WINAPI cwbUN_GetAdminValueEx(
cwbCO_SysHandle* pSysHandle,
char* adminFunction,
cwbUN_Usage&amp; usageValue);</pre>
<p><strong>Parameters</strong></p>
<dl><dt class="dlterm">cwbCO_SysHandle* pSysHandle</dt>
<dd>A pointer to a system object handle. The system name must be specified
in the system object prior to calling this API. The cwbUN_GetAdminValueEx
API's behavior is based on whether the system object has obtained a signon
to the iSeries server: <dl><dt class="dlterm">Not Signed On-&gt;</dt>
<dd>cwbUN_GetAdminValueEx will signon to the iSeries server. The latest Application
Administration settings for the user will be downloaded from the iSeries server
if they are not already cached on the client PC.</dd>
<dt class="dlterm">Signed On-&gt;</dt>
<dd>If the system object was signed on to the iSeries server specifying that the iSeries userID
and password should be validated (Validate Mode), then the cwbUN_GetAdminValueEx
API will be using a snapshot of Application Administration settings that were
accurate at the time the signon was completed. If the signon was done without
validating the userID and password, then it is possible that cwbUN_GetAdminValueEx
will use a copy of the Application Administration settings that may be as
much as 24 hours old.</dd>
</dl>
</dd>
<dt class="dlterm">char* adminFunction</dt>
<dd>A pointer to an ASCII string that contains the name of the Administrable
function. The string must be null terminated and has a maximum length of 30
bytes + 1 byte for the NULL terminator. See CWBUNPLA.H for a list of supported
input values.</dd>
<dt class="dlterm">cwbUN_Usage&amp; usageValue</dt>
<dd>This value is only valid if the return code of CWB_OK is returned. One
of two values will be returned: <dl><dt class="dlterm">cwbUN_granted</dt>
<dd>User is allowed use of the function.</dd>
<dt class="dlterm">cwbUN_denied</dt>
<dd>User is denied use of the function.</dd>
</dl>
</dd>
</dl>
<p><strong>Return Codes</strong></p>
<p>The following list shows common return values:</p>
<dl><dt class="dlterm">CWB_OK</dt>
<dd>The API was successful.</dd>
<dt class="dlterm">CWBSY_USER_CANCELLED</dt>
<dd>The user cancelled the user ID and password prompt presented by the API.</dd>
</dl>
<p><strong>Usage</strong></p>
<p>This API determines if the current iSeries user (as defined by the input
system object) is allowed to use the specified function. If no user is currently
signed on to the specified iSeries server, the API will sign the user on, possibly
displaying a user ID and password prompt.</p>
<p>This API can only be used to check Administrable functions that are in
the iSeries Navigator
or the Client Applications function category.</p>
