Return an index descriptor by name.

Prototype

 
    MCO_RET mco_dict_index_name(	/*IN*/ mco_metadict_header_t * metadict, 
                     /*IN*/ unsigned short dict_no,
                    /*IN*/ unsigned short struct_no,
                    /*IN*/ const char * name, 
                    /*OUT*/ mco_dict_index_info_t * index_info );

Arguments

metadict	The address of an initialized mco_metadict_header_t structure
dict_no	The number of the dictionary (must be between 0 and `mco_metadict_count().` - 1)
struct_no	The structure/class number (must be between 0 to `mco_dict_struct_count()` - 1)
name	The index name as defined in the schema
index_info	The address of an `mco_dict_index_info_t` variable to receive the index descriptor

Description

This function returns an index descriptor by name.

Return Codes

MCO_S_OK	The index descriptor was successfully returned
MCO_E_UDA_DICT_NOTFOUND	The dictionary is not registered
MCO_E_UDA_STRUCT_NOTFOUND	Invalid `struct_no`
MCO_E_UDA_STRUCT_NOT_CLASS	The struct_no does not correspond to a class
MCO_E_UDA_INDEX_NOTFOUND	invalid DDL name

Example

 
    Application snippet:
        
     
    const char * dbname = "SimpleDb";
     
    int main(int argc, char* argv[])
    {
        MCO_RET rc;
        unsigned int dict_no = 0;
        unsigned int struct_no = 0;
        unsigned int count;
        mco_metadict_header_t *header;
        const char * index_name = "MyIndex";
        mco_dict_index_info_t index_info;
        ...
         
        header = (mco_metadict_header_t *) malloc(size);
        mco_metadict_init(header, size); /* initialize the metadict */
        ...
        rc = mco_dict_index_name(header, dict_no, struct_no, index_name, &index_info);
        
        printf("Index %d : %s\n", index_info.index_no, index_name);
        ...
    }
