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

NAME
       SLPReg - register an SLP advertisement

SYNOPSIS
       #include <slp.h>

       SLPError  SLPReg(SLPHandle  hSLP,  const char *pcSrvURL, const unsigned short usLifetime , const char *pcSrvType, const char *pcAttrs, SLP-
       Boolean fresh, SLPRegReport callback, void *pvCookie);

DESCRIPTION
       The SLPReg() function registers the  URL  in pcSrvURL  having  the  lifetime  usLifetime with   the  attribute	list  in   pcAttrs.    The
       pcAttrs list is	a comma-separated
	list  of   attribute  assignments in on-the-wire format (including  escaping  of  reserved  characters).   The	sLifetime  parameter  must
       be  nonzero  and less than or equal to  SLP_LIFETIME_MAXIMUM. If the fresh  flag is  SLP_TRUE, then the registration is	new, the SLP  pro-
       tocol  fresh  flag is set, and the registration replaces any existing registrations.

       The pcSrvType parameter is a service type name and can be included for service URLs that are not in the service:  scheme.  If the URL is in
       the service:  scheme, the pcSrvType parameter is ignored.  If the fresh flag is SLP_FALSE, then an existing registration is updated.  Rules
       for  new  and  updated  registrations, and the format for pcAttrs and pcScopeList, can be found in RFC 2608. Registrations and updates take
       place in the language locale of the hSLP handle.

       The API library is required to perform the operation in all scopes obtained through configuration.

PARAMETERS
       hSLP	       The language specific  SLPHandle on which to  register the advertisement.  hSLP cannot be NULL.

       pcSrvURL        The URL	to register.  The value of pcSrvURL cannot be NULL  or the  empty  string.

       usLifetime      An unsigned short giving the life time of the service advertisement, in seconds.  The value must  be  an  unsigned  integer
		       less than or equal to SLP_LIFETIME_MAXIMUM.

       pcSrvType       The service type.   If pURL is  a service:  URL,  then this parameter is ignored.  pcSrvType cannot be NULL.

       pcAttrs	       A   comma-separated   list  of  attribute   assignment expressions for the  attributes of the  advertisement. pcAttrs  can-
		       not  be NULL.  Use the empty  string,  "",
			to indicate no attributes.

       fresh	       An SLPBoolean that is SLP_TRUE if the registration is new or  SLP_FALSE if it is a reregistration.

       callback        A callback to report the operation completion  status. callback cannot be NULL.

       pvCookie        Memory passed to the callback code from the client.  pvCookie can be NULL.

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

EXAMPLES
       Example 1: An Initial Registration

       The following example shows an initial registration for the "service:video://bldg15" camera service for three hours:

       SLPError err;
       SLPHandle hSLP;
       SLPRegReport regreport;
       err = SLPReg(hSLP, "service:video://bldg15",
	    10800, "", "(location=B15-corridor),
	    (scan-rate=100)", SLP_TRUE,
	    regRpt, NULL);

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
       SLP_CONF_FILE	       When set, use this file for configuration.
