SA_WILDCARD

SA ADMIN function to find a file using a wildcard specification.

Declaration

NINT SA_WILDCARD(pTEXT infilnam, NINT mode, pTEXT outfilnam, NINT outfillen)

Description

• infilnam is the wildcard filename
• opcode is one of the following:

  FindFileByName opcode	Explanation
  ctFILWCDfind	start new search
  ctFILWCDfindnext	find next file
  ctFILWCDfindclose	terminate current search

• outfilnam is the buffer to hold the found filename
• poutfillen points to the output buffer size

Note: The wildcard logic finds all files matching the wildcard specification--there is no check that the file is a c-tree data or index file. The wildcard logic also finds memory files whose names match the specified filename.

Return

See c-tree Plus Error Codes for a complete listing of valid c-tree Plus error values.

Example SA ADMIN API pseudocode

#define MAX_SIZE 1024 /* 1K buffer size */

pText pFilelist;

int ListLength = MAX_SIZE

pFileList = (pText) malloc (sizeOf(pText) * MAX_SIZE);

memset(pFileList, 0, MAX_SIZE);

SA_LOGON(“ADMIN”, “ADMIN”, NULL, “FAIRCOMS”);

...

if ((rc = SA_WILDCARD(“jrnl*.dat”, ctFILWDfindfirst, pFilelist, ListLength)) !=0 ) {

	ctrt_printf(“SA_WILDCARD encountered the following error code(%n):\n”, rc);

}
