FTM_READ_ATTRIB_REQ_

This procedure allows you to read the file attributes of the previously selected file.

status return value

INT

indicates the outcome of the call. For a list of possible ZAPS-VAL-STATUS-xxx

values, see Table B-1 on page B-2.

cepi input

INT:value

is the connection endpoint identifier (CEPI) used to identify the specific

association. Use the CEPI value returned from the FTM_INITIALIZE_REQ_

procedure for this association. For additional information on using the cepi

parameter, see the OSI/FTAM Programming Guide.

cepi is a required parameter.

attrib-names input

INT .EXT:ref:(ZFTM-DDL-ATTR-NAMES)

specifies the names of the file attributes to be read.

attrib-names is a required parameter.

tag input

INT(32):value

is for use in nowait mode only. Specify a unique value to identify this instance of

the procedure call. When the operation is complete, the MFM_AWAITIOX_

procedure returns the tag value, allowing your application to match the completion

with the correct instance of the procedure call. For details on the use of the tag

parameter, see the OSI/FTAM Programming Guide.

tag is an optional parameter.

Considerations

•

Before calling this procedure, you must have negotiated the limited-file-

management functional unit and the appropriate attribute groups on the

FTM_INITIALIZE_REQ_ call.

status := FTM_READ_ATTRIB_REQ_ ( cepi ! I

, attrib-names ! I
