DESCRIPTION

The scf_iter_create() function creates a new iterator associated with
handle. The scf_iter_destroy() function destroys an iteration.

The scf_iter_reset() function releases any resources involved with an
active iteration and returns the iterator to its initial state.

The scf_iter_handle_scopes(), scf_iter_scope_services(),
scf_iter_service_instances(), scf_iter_instance_snapshots(),
scf_iter_service_pgs(), scf_iter_instance_pgs(),
scf_iter_snaplevel_pgs(), scf_iter_pg_properties(), and
scf_iter_property_values() functions set up a new iteration of all
the children parent of a particular type. The
scf_iter_property_values() function will iterate over values in the
order in which they were specified with scf_entry_add_value(3SCF).

The scf_iter_service_pgs_typed(), scf_iter_instance_pgs_typed(), and
scf_iter_snaplevel_pgs_typed() functions iterate over the child
property groups of parent, but restrict them to a particular property
group type.

The scf_iter_instance_pgs_composed() function sets up a new iteration
of the composed view of instance's children at the time snapshot was
taken. If snapshot is NULL, the current properties are used. The
composed view of an instance's properties is the union of the
properties of the instance and its ancestors. Properties of the
instance take precedence over properties of the service with the same
name, including property group name. Property groups retrieved with
this iterator might not have instance as their parent and properties
retrieved from such property groups might not have the indicated
property group as their parent. If instance and its parent have
property groups with the same name but different types, the
properties in the property group of the parent are excluded. The
scf_iter_instance_pgs_typed_composed() function behaves as
scf_iter_instance_pgs_composed(), except the property groups of the
type pgtype are returned.

The scf_iter_next_scope(), scf_iter_next_service(),
scf_iter_next_instance(), scf_iter_next_snapshot(),
scf_iter_next_pg(), scf_iter_next_property(), and
scf_iter_next_value() functions retrieve the next element of the
iteration.

RETURN VALUES

Upon successful completion, scf_iter_create() returns a pointer to a
new iterator. Otherwise, it returns NULL.

Upon successful completion, scf_iter_handle() returns the handle
associated with iter. Otherwise it returns NULL.

Upon successful completion, scf_iter_handle_scopes(),
scf_iter_scope_services(), scf_iter_service_instances(),
scf_iter_instance_snapshots(), scf_iter_service_pgs(),
scf_iter_instance_pgs(), scf_iter_snaplevel_pgs(),
scf_iter_pg_properties(), scf_iter_property_values(),
scf_iter_service_pgs_typed(), scf_iter_instance_pgs_composed(),
scf_iter_instance_pgs_typed(),
scf_iter_instance_pgs_typed_composed(), and
scf_iter_snaplevel_pgs_typed() return 0. Otherwise, they return -1.

Upon successful completion, scf_iter_next_scope(),
scf_iter_next_service(), scf_iter_next_instance(),
scf_iter_next_snapshot(), scf_iter_next_pg(),
scf_iter_next_property(), and scf_iter_next_value() return 1. If the
iterator is complete, they return 0. Otherwise, they return -1.

ERRORS

The scf_iter_create() function will fail if:

SCF_ERROR_INVALID_ARGUMENT
The handle argument is NULL.

SCF_ERROR_NO_MEMORY
There is no memory available.

SCF_ERROR_NO_RESOURCES
The server does not have adequate
resources for a new iteration.

The scf_iter_handle() function will fail if:

SCF_ERROR_HANDLE_DESTROYED
The handle associated with iter has
been destroyed.

The scf_iter_next_value() function will fail if:

SCF_ERROR_PERMISSION_DENIED

The value could not be read due to access restrictions.

scf_iter_snaplevel_pgs_typed() functions will fail if:

SCF_ERROR_DELETED

The parent has been deleted.

SCF_ERROR_NOT_SET

The parent is not set.

SCF_ERROR_NOT_BOUND

The handle is not bound.

SCF_ERROR_CONNECTION_BROKEN

The connection to the repository was lost.

SCF_ERROR_HANDLE_MISMATCH

The iter and parent arguments are not derived from the same
handle.

The scf_iter_service_pgs_typed(), scf_iter_instance_pgs_typed(),
scf_iter_instance_pgs_typed_composed(), and
scf_iter_snaplevel_pgs_typed() functions will fail if:

SCF_ERROR_INVALID_ARGUMENT

property group type.

The scf_iter_next_service(), scf_iter_next_instance(),
scf_iter_next_snapshot(), scf_iter_next_pg(),
scf_iter_next_property(), and scf_iter_next_value() functions will
fail if:

scf_iter_next_instance(), scf_iter_next_snapshot(),
scf_iter_next_pg(),scf_iter_next_property(), and
scf_iter_next_value() functions will fail if:

SCF_ERROR_NOT_SET

The iterator is not set.

SCF_ERROR_INVALID_ARGUMENT

The requested object type does not match the type the iterator is
walking.

SCF_ERROR_NOT_BOUND

The handle is not bound.

SCF_ERROR_HANDLE_MISMATCH

The iter and parent arguments are not derived from the same

EXAMPLES

Example 1: Iterate over all instances under a service.

scf_iter_t *iter = scf_iter_create(handle);

if (iter == NULL || scf_iter_service_instances(iter, parent) == -1) {
/* failure */
}
while ((r = scf_iter_next_instance(iter, child)) > 0) {
/* process child */
}
if (r < 0) {
/* failure */
}
scf_iter_destroy(iter);

Example 2: Connect to the repository, walk all services and instances

and print their FMRIs.

scf_handle_t *handle = scf_handle_create(SCF_VERSION);
scf_scope_t *scope = scf_scope_create(handle);
scf_service_t *svc = scf_service_create(handle);
scf_instance_t *inst = scf_instance_create(handle);
scf_iter_t *svc_iter = scf_iter_create(handle);
scf_iter_t *inst_iter = scf_iter_create(handle);

size_t sz = scf_limit(SCF_LIMIT_MAX_FMRI_LENGTH) + 1;
char *fmri = malloc(sz + 1);

int r;

if (handle == NULL || scope == NULL || svc == NULL ||
inst == NULL || svc_iter == NULL || inst_iter == NULL ||
fmri == NULL) {
/* failure */
}
if (scf_handle_bind(handle) == -1 ||
