QueryDirAliasPath()



This function returns the path of a directory alias. The function is a 
limited subset of  NetGetInfo(NETALIAS)  which should be used instead.   



Syntax 



parse value QueryDirAliasPath(dcName, aliasName) with MyRc aliasPath




  



Parameters 



The parameters specified are: 



dcName            The computer name of the domain controller, which 
                  contains the alias definitions 



aliasName         The directory alias name 



aliasPath         The directory path returned if MyRc return code is 0. 
  



Note 



The function works only on directory alias definitions and the server name 
specified must be the domain controller computer name.   



Example   



/* Retrieve the directory path for a alias. */

dcName   = '\\ILIDC'
aliasName = 'BOOKS'

/* Get access to LSRXUT.DLL functions */
call RxFuncAdd 'LoadLsRxutFuncs', 'LSRXUT', 'LoadLsRxutFuncs'
call LoadLsRxutFuncs

parse value QueryDirAliasPath(dcName, aliasName) with MyRc aliasPath
if MyRc = 0 then do
 say 'Alias' aliasName 'has the path'
 say aliasPath
end
else do
 say 'QueryDirAliasPath(dcName, aliasName) returned errorcode' MyRc
end

call DropLsRxutFuncs
call RxFuncDrop 'LoadLsRxutFuncs'

exit 0




  



Example Output   



Alias  BOOKS  has the path
D:\APPS\BOOKS
