#include <eim.h> int eimGetTargetFromIdentifier(EimHandle * eim, EimIdentifierInfo * idName, char * targetRegistryName, char * additionalInformation, unsigned int lengthOfListData, EimList * listData, EimRC * eimrc)Service Program Name: QSYS/QSYEIM
The eimGetTargetFromIdentifier() function gets the target identity or identities for the specified registry that is associated with the specified EIM identifier.
See EIM Mapping Lookup Algorithm for the steps involved in a mapping lookup operation.
The list returned contains only the information that the user has authority to access.
enum EimIdType { EIM_UNIQUE_NAME, EIM_ENTRY_UUID, EIM_NAME }; typedef struct EimIdentifierInfo { union { char * uniqueName; char * entryUUID; char * name; } id; enum EimIdType idtype; } EimIdentifierInfo;
idtype indicates which identifier name is provided. Use of the uniqueName provides the best performance. Specifying an idtype of EIM_NAME does not guarantee that a unique EIM identifier will be found. Therefore, use of EIM_NAME may result in an error.
The EimList structure contains information about the returned data. The API will return as much data as space has been provided. The data returned is a linked list of EimTargetIdentity structures. firstEntry is used to get to the first EimTargetIdentity structure in the linked list. Each EimTargetIdentity entry contains a user name returned by this lookup operation.
EimList structure:
typedef struct EimList { unsigned int bytesReturned; /* Number of bytes actually returned by the API. */ unsigned int bytesAvailable; /* Number of bytes of available data that could have been returned by the API. */ unsigned int entriesReturned; /* Number of entries actually returned by the API. */ unsigned int entriesAvailable; /* Number of entries available to be returned by the API. */ unsigned int firstEntry; /* Displacement to the first linked list entry. This byte offset is relative to the start of the EimList structure. */ } EimList;
EimTargetIdentity structure:
typedef struct EimTargetIdentity { unsigned int nextEntry; /* Displacement to next entry. This byte offset is relative to the start of this structure. */ EimListData userName; /* User name */ enum EimAssociationType type; /* Association type */ EimListData sourceGroupRegistry;/* Source group registry name */ EimListData targetGroupRegistry;/* Target group registry name */ EimSubList credentialInfo; /* EimCredentialInfo sublist */ } EimTargetIdentity;
The sourceGroupRegistry will not be returned by this API. The targetGroupRegistry will be returned if the target identity was found using a target association to a group registry.
This API will always return 0 for the numbers of entries in the credentialInfo sublist. If you need access to the credential information, use the Get EIM Target Identities and Credentials from the Identifier (eimGetTgtCredsFromIdentifier) API.
EimSubList structure:
typedef struct EimSubList { unsigned int listNum; /* Number of entries in the list */ unsigned int disp; /* Displacement to sublist. This byte offset is relative to the start of the parent structure; that is, the structure containing this structure. */ } EimSubList;
EimListData structure:
typedef struct EimListData { unsigned int length; /* Length of data */ unsigned int disp; /* Displacement to data. This byte offset is relative to the start of the parent structure; that is, the structure containing this structure. */ } EimListData;
The return value from the API. Following each return value is the list of possible values for the messageCatalogMessageID field in the eimrc parameter for that value.
