lb_unregister

lb_unregister(3ncs) lb_unregister(3ncs)

Name
lb_unregister - remove an entry from the Location Broker database

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

void lb_$unregister(entry, status)
lb_$entry_t *entry;
status_$t *status;

Arguments
entry The entry being removed from the Location Broker database.

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

Description
The routine removes from the Location Broker database the entry that matches entry. The value of entry should be identical to that
returned by the routine when the database entry was created. However, does not compare all of the fields in entry, the annotation field,
and the port number in the saddr field.

This routine removes the entry from the LLB database on the local host (the host that issues the routine). If the flags field of entry is
equal to 0, it removes the entry from the GLB database. If the flags field is equal to lb_$server_flag_local, it deletes only the LLB
entry.

Examples
The following statement unregisters the entry specified by which was obtained from a previous routine:
lb_$unregister (&BankEntry, &status);

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

lb_$database_invalid
The format of the Location Broker database is out of date. The database may have been created by an old version of the
Location Broker; in this case, delete the out-of-date database and reregister any entries that it contained. The LLB
or GLB that was accessed may be running out-of-date software; in this case, update all Location Brokers to the current
software version.

lb_$database_busy The Location Broker database is currently in use in an incompatible manner.

lb_$not_registered The Location Broker does not have any entries that match the criteria specified in the unregister routine. The
requested object, type, interface, or combination thereof is not registered in the specified database.

lb_$update_failed The Location Broker was unable to register or unregister the entry.

lb_$cant_access The Location Broker cannot access the database. Among the possible reasons:

1. The database does not exist.

2. The database exists, but the Location Broker cannot access it.

lb_$server_unavailable
The Location Broker Client Agent cannot reach the requested GLB or LLB. A communications failure occurred or the bro-
ker was not running.
