rpc_inq_binding(3ncs)													     rpc_inq_binding(3ncs)

Name
       rpc_inq_binding - return the socket address represented by an RPC handle (client or server)

Syntax
       #include <idl/c/rpc.h>

       void rpc_$inq_binding(handle, sockaddr, slength, status)
       handle_t handle;
       socket_$addr_t *sockaddr;
       unsigned long *slength;
       status_$t *status;

Arguments
       handle		   An RPC handle.

       sockaddr 	   The socket address represented by handle.

       slength		   The length, in bytes, of sockaddr.

       status		   The completion status.  If the completion status returned in is equal to status_$ok , then the routine that supplied it
			   was successful.

Description
       The routine enables a client to determine the socket address, and therefore the server, identified by an RPC handle.  It is useful  when  a
       client uses an unbound handle in a remote procedure call and wishes to determine the particular server that responded to the call.

Examples
       The Location Broker administrative tool, uses the following statement to determine the GLB that last responded to a lookup request:
       rpc_$inq_binding(lb_$handle, &global_broker_addr,
			   &global_broker_addr_len, &status);

Diagnostics
       This section lists status codes for errors returned by this routine in

       rpc_$not_in_call    An internal error.

       rpc_$proto_error    An internal protocol error.

       rpc_$unbound_handle The handle is not bound and does not represent a particular host address.  Returned by

rpc_sockaddr_to_name(3ncs)												rpc_sockaddr_to_name(3ncs)

Name
       rpc_sockaddr_to_name - convert a socket address to a host name and port number (client or server)

Syntax
       #include <idl/c/rpc.h>

       void rpc_$sockaddr_to_name(sockaddr, slength, name, nlength,				    port, status)
       socket_$addr_t *sockaddr;
       unsigned long slength;
       unsigned char name;
       unsigned long *nlength;
       unsigned long *port;
       status_$t *status;

Arguments
       sockaddr 	   A socket address.

       slength		   The length, in bytes, of sockaddr.

       name		   A string that contains the host name and the address family.  The format is family:host [port] where family is ip.

       nlength		   On  input,  nlength	is  the length of the name buffer.  On output, nlength is the number of characters returned in the
			   name parameter.

       port		   The socket port number.

       status		   The completion status.  If the completion status returned in is equal to status_$ok , then the routine that supplied it
			   was successful.

Description
       The routine provides the address family, the host name, and the port number identified by the specified socket address.

Diagnostics
       This section lists status codes for errors returned by this routine in

       rpc_$not_in_call    An internal error.

       rpc_$proto_error    An internal protocol error.	This routine has been superseded by the routine.
