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 com‐
piled.
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.
