 NAME
   show profile - Shows the elements of a profile

 SYNOPSIS

   rpccp show profile profile-entry-name {-d | -a annotation |
                      -i if-id  [-v versions] -m member}
                      [-r [integer]] [-s syntax] [-u]

 OPTIONS

   -d        Selects the default profile element. With the -d option,
             the -a, -i, and -m options are ignored.

             Note that the -a option works with the -d option, but do
             not use them together.

   -a        Declares a single annotation field (optional).  The -a
             option selects only elements containing the specified
             annotation.  The option is case sensitive.

             The -a option works alone or in combination with the -i
             or -m options or both; only elements containing all the
             specified values are displayed.

             Note that the shell supports quotation marks around the
             annotation field of profile elements, allowing you to
             include internal spaces in an annotation; the control
             program does not.  To specify or refer to annotations
             from within the control program, limit each annotation
             to an unbroken alphanumeric string; for example,
             CalendarGroup.  To refer to annotations from the system
             prompt, do not incorporate quotation marks into any
             annotation.

   -i        Selects a specified interface identifier (optional).
             Only elements containing that interface identifier are
             shown.  The interface identifier value has the following
             form:

                 interface-uuid,major-version.minor-version

             The UUID is a hexadecimal string and the version numbers
             are decimal strings, for example:

                  -i ec1eeb60-5943-11c9-a309-08002b102989,1.1

             Leading zeros in version numbers are ignored.

             The -i option works alone or in combination with the -a
             or -m options or both; only elements containing all the
             specified values are displayed.  When the -d option is
             specified, the -i option is ignored.

   -m        Declares a single member name (optional).  Only elements
             containing that member name are shown.

             The -m option works alone or in combination with the -a
             or -i options or both; only elements containing all the
             specified values are displayed.  When the -d option is
             specified, the -m option is ignored.

   -r        Indicates that the show profile operation recurses.  If
             the member of any element of a profile is also a profile,
             its elements are shown.  By default, the -r option causes
             the show profile operation to recurse until all nested
             profiles are expanded; for example, -r shows the elements
             of the specified profile and of all nested profiles.

             You can limit recursion to one or more levels by specifying
             a decimal integer as part of the -r option. For example,
             -r 1 shows the elements of the specified profile and, for
             element members that are profiles, the command also shows
             their elements; then recursion stops.

             Without the -r option, only the profile elements in the
             specified entry are shown.

   -s        Indicates the name syntax of the entry name (optional).
             The only value for this option is the dce name syntax,
             which is the default name syntax.  Until an alternative
             name syntax becomes available, specifying the -s option
             is unnecessary.

   -u        Updates the local CDS cache copy of name service data
             (optional).  Name service data is cached locally on each
             machine in a cell.  If an rpccp inquiry can be satisfied
             by data in the local CDS cache, this cached data is
             returned.  Locally cached copies of name service data
             might not include a recent CDS update, however.  If the
             required data is not available in the local CDS cache,
             rpccp goes to a CDS server(s) to retrieve the required
             data.  rpccp then updates the local CDS cache.  Using the
             -u option bypasses the local cache, allowing rpccp to go
             directly to a CDS server for the inquiry.  rpccp then
             updates the local CDS cache.

   -v        Indicates how a specified interface version is used
             (optional).  If it is used without the -i option, the
             -v option is ignored.  The possible combinations of
             versions for the -v option and their actions are
             described in the following table.

                 ________________________________________________
                 Versions     Action
                 ________________________________________________
                 all          The interface version is ignored.

                 exact        Both the major and minor versions
                              must match the specified versions.

                 compatible   The major version must match the
                              specified version, and the minor
                              version must be greater than or
                              equal to the specified version.

                 major_only   The major version must match the
                              specified version; the minor ver-
                              sion is ignored.

                 upto         The major version must be less than
                              or equal to that specified.  If the
                              major versions are equal, the minor
                              version must be less than or equal
                              to that specified.
                 ________________________________________________

             If the -v option is absent, the command shows compatible
             version numbers.

 ARGUMENTS

   profile-entry-name
             Indicates the name of the target profile.  For an entry
             in the local cell, you can omit the cell name and specify
             only the cell-relative name.

 DESCRIPTION
   The show profile command shows the elements of a profile in the name
   service database.  The entry name of the profile is required.

   By default, all elements in the profile are shown.  You can select
   a subset of the elements by specifying the -a, -i, or -m options.
   The -r option enables you to show nested profiles.

   Privilege Required

   You need read permission to the CDS object entry (the target profile
   entry).  If you use the -r option, you also need read permission to
   any nested profiles.

 NOTE
   This command is replaced at Revision 1.1 by the dcecp command and
   may not be provided in future releases of DCE.

 EXAMPLES
   The following command operates from the system prompt to show the
   cell profile /.:/cell-profile in the local cell:

        $ rpccp show profile  /.:/cell-profile

   The initial DCL command sets up a logical name MOLLY_O_PROFILE,
   which represents the user profile /.:/LandS/anthro/molly_o_profile.
   The control program commands start the control program and show the
   user profile associated with the MOLLY_O_PROFILE logical name, as
   follows:

        $ define MOLLY_O_PROFILE "/.:/LandS/anthro/molly_o_profile"
        $ rpccp
        rpccp> show profile MOLLY_O_PROFILE
