NAME
dat_registry_add_provider - declare the Provider with the Dynamic Registry SYNOPSIS
cc [ flag... ] file... -ldat [ library... ] #include <dat/udat.h> DAT_RETURN dat_registry_add_provider ( IN const DAT_PROVIDER *provider, IN const DAT_PROVIDER_INFO *provider_info ) PARAMETERS
provider Self-description of a Provider. provider_info Attributes of the Provider. DESCRIPTION
The Provider declares itself with the Dynamic Registry. Note that the caller can choose to register itself multiple times, for example once for each port. The choice of what to virtualize is up to the Provider. Each registration provides an Interface Adapter to DAT. Each Provider must have a unique name. The same IA Name cannot be added multiple times. An attempt to register the same IA Name again results in an error with the return value DAT_PROVIDER_ALREADY_REGISTERED. The contents of provider_info must be the same as those the Consumer uses in the call to dat_ia_open(3DAT) directly, or the ones provided indirectly defined by the header files with which the Consumer compiled. RETURN VALUES
DAT_SUCCESS The operation was successful. DAT_INSUFFICIENT_RESOURCES The maximum number of Providers was already registered. DAT_INVALID_PARAMETER Invalid parameter. DAT_PROVIDER_ALREADY_REGISTERED Invalid or nonunique name. ATTRIBUTES

NAME
dat_provider_fini - disassociate the Provider from a given IA name SYNOPSIS
cc [ flag... ] file... -ldat [ library... ] #include <dat/udat.h> void dat_provider_fini ( IN const DAT_PROVIDER_INFO *provider_info ) PARAMETERS
provider_info The information that was provided when dat_provider_init was called. DESCRIPTION
A destructor the Registry calls on a Provider before it disassociates the Provider from a given IA name. The Provider can use this method to undo any initialization it performed when dat_provider_init(3DAT) was called for the same IA name. The Provider's implementation of this method should call dat_registry_remove_provider(3DAT) to unregister its IA Name. If it does not, the Reg- istry might remove the entry itself. This method can be called for a given IA name at any time after all open instances of that IA are closed, and is certainly called before the Registry unloads the Provider library. However, it is not called more than once without an intervening call to dat_provider_init() for that IA name. RETURN VALUES
No values are returned. ATTRIBUTES
