Sm_PolicyApi_GetGroup()

Sm_PolicyApi_GetGroup()

Gets the contents of the group object identified by pszGroupOid. The results of this function are returned in a structure referenced by ppStructGroup.

The pszDomainOid parameter is required by a rule or response group. An agent group does not require a domain OID because it is not a domain-based object.

Free the memory allocated for this structure by calling Sm_PolicyApi_FreeMemoryEx().

Type

Group function, global scope (agents) or domain scope (responses, rules).

Syntax

int SM_EXTERN Sm_PolicyApi_GetGroup (
   void*                   pSessionHandle,
   Sm_PolicyApi_Groups_t   dwGroup,
   const char*             pszGroupOid,
   const char*             pszDomainOid,
   Sm_PolicyApi_Group_t**  ppStructGroup
);

Parameter	I/O	Description
pSessionHandle	I	A pointer to an internal Policy Management API data structure. The structure holds information about the administrator session and the client session.
dwGroup	I	The type of group to be retrieved.
pszGroupOid	I	A null-terminated string containing the object identifier of the group object being retrieved.
pszDomainOid	I	A null-terminated string containing the object identifier of an existing domain. Required parameter for rule or response groups.
ppStructGroup	O	The address of a pointer to a group structure.

Returns

Sm_PolicyApi_Success. The get was successful.
Sm_PolicyApi_Failure. The get was not successful.
Sm_PolicyApi_InvalidHandle. There was no valid initialization prior to this call.
Sm_PolicyApi_NoSession. There is no valid administrator session.
Sm_PolicyApi_NoPrivilege. The administrator does not have the privilege to get the contents of a group.
Sm_PolicyApi_InvalidOid:
- The group OID was not found.
- The domain OID was not found (for a domain-based group).
Sm_PolicyApi_BadGroup. The dwGroup parameter is not the rule, response, or agent type.
