 NAME

   rpc_ns_group_mbr_inq_next - Returns one member name at a time from
                               a group

   Used by client, server, or management applications.

 SYNOPSIS

   #include <dce/rpc.h>

   void rpc_ns_group_mbr_inq_next( rpc_ns_handle_t inquiry_context,
                                   unsigned_char_t **member_name,
                                   unsigned32 *status );

 PARAMETERS

   Input

   inquiry_context
       Specifies a name service handle.  This handle is returned from the
       rpc_ns_group_mbr_inq_begin() routine.

   Output

   member_name
       Returns a pointer to a (global) RPC group member name.
       The syntax of the returned name is specified by the
       member_name_syntax parameter in rpc_ns_group_mbr_inq_begin().
       Specify NULL to prevent the routine from returning this parameter.
       In this case, the application does not call rpc_string_free().

   status
       Returns the status code from this routine.  This status code
       indicates whether the routine completed successfully or, if not,
       why not.  The possible status codes and their meanings are as
       follows:

       rpc_s_ok       Success.

       rpc_s_class_version_mismatch
                      RPC class version mismatch.

       rpc_s_entry_not_found
                      Name service entry not found.

       rpc_s_invalid_ns_handle
                      Invalid name service handle.

       rpc_s_name_service_unavailable
                      Name service unavailable.

       rpc_s_no_more_members
                      No more members.

       rpc_s_no_ns_permission
                      No permission for name service operation.

       rpc_s_not_rpc_entry
                      Not an RPC entry.

 DESCRIPTION

   The rpc_ns_group_mbr_inq_next() routine returns one member of
   the RPC group specified by the group_name parameter in the
   rpc_ns_group_mbr_inq_begin() routine.

   An application can view all the members of an RPC group by calling the
   rpc_ns_group_mbr_inq_next() routine repeatedly.  When all the group
   members have been viewed, this routine returns an rpc_s_no_more_members
   status.  The returned group members are unordered.

   On each call to this routine that returns a member name (as a global
   name), the RPC runtime allocates memory for the returned member_name.
   The application calls rpc_string_free() for each returned member_name
   string.

   After viewing the RPC group's members, the application must call the
   rpc_ns_group_mbr_inq_done() routine to delete the inquiry context.

   Permissions Required

   You need read permission to the CDS object entry (the target group
   entry).

 RETURN VALUES

   No value is returned.
