SLPFindScopes(3SLP)				    Service Location Protocol Library Functions 			       SLPFindScopes(3SLP)

NAME

       SLPFindScopes - return list of configured and discovered scopes

SYNOPSIS

       cc [ flag... ] file... -lslp [ library... ]
       #include <slp.h>

       SLPError SLPFindScopes(SLPHandle hSLP, char** ppcScopes);

DESCRIPTION

       The  SLPFindScopes()  function sets the ppcScopes parameter  to	a pointer to a comma-separated list including  all available scope  names.
       The list of  scopes comes from  a variety of  sources: the configuration file, the net.slp.useScopes property and  the  net.slp.DAAddresses
       property,    DHCP,    or   through  the	 DA discovery  process.  If  there is  any  order  to the  scopes,  preferred  scopes  are  listed
       before less  desirable  scopes.	There  is  always  at  least one  string in the  array, the  default  scope,  DEFAULT.

       If no error occurs, SLPFindScopes() returns SLP_OK, otherwise, it returns the appropriate error code.

PARAMETERS

       hSLP	    The SLPHandle on which to search for scopes.  hSLP cannot be NULL.

       ppcScopes    A  pointer to  a char  pointer  into  which  the  buffer pointer is placed upon return. The buffer is  null-terminated.    The
		    memory should be freed by calling SLPFree(). See SLPFree(3SLP)

ERRORS

       This function or its callback may return any SLP error code. See the ERRORS section in slp_api(3SLP).

EXAMPLES

       Example 1 Finding Configured or Discovered Scopes

       Use the following example to find configured or discovered scopes:

	 SLPHandle hSLP;
	 char *ppcScopes;
	 SLPError err;

	 error = SLPFindScopes(hSLP, & ppcScopes);

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

       SLP_CONF_FILE	When set, use this file for configuration.
