- DESCRIPTION:
-
- This program illustrates the use of the SMS APIs to examine either
- a site container, a jobs container, or a package container. The
- only difference in code between them is the setting of filters.
-
- For the specified container, this program will set a standard set of
- filters for that container type, and then begin enumeration of that
- container and all the folders within it.
-
- After the preliminary work of soliciting from the user the datasource
- information and making a connection to that datasource, the program
- then solicits the container type to enumerate and sets appropriate
- filters (see below). A loop is then entered which retrieves and
- stores the handles of all folders in that container. The container
- is then closed. Closing a container as soon as possible has a space
- advantage in that an open parent causes a folder's reference count to
- be incremented. The folder will not be closed until this count reaches
- zero. If the container is left open then no folders at all will be
- removed from memory.
-
- We then loop through the list of folders and display them one at a time,
- after which the program either terminates or restarts (using the same
- datasource), according to the user's request.
-
- Displaying folders.
- This is accomplished in the DisplayFolder() function.
-
- API USAGE:
- The following APIs are used in this program:
-
- SmsAPIVer
-
- SmsDataSourceConnect
- SmsDataSourceDisconnect
-
- SmsOpenContainer
- SmsSetFilter
- SmsPopulate
- SmsGetFolderCount
- SmsCloseContainer
-
- SmsCreateFilter
- SmsGetToken
- SmsGetTokenCount
- SmsAddToken
- SmsCloseFilter
-
- SmsGetFolderID
- SmsGetFolderType
- SmsGetNextFolder
- SmsGetScalarCount
- SmsGetNextScalar
- SmsCloseFolder
-

- 1. Site hierarchy
- -----------------
- This program will display the site/domain/machine/MIF group
- tree for the associated datasource according to certain filter
- conditions.
- o site filter: select either root site or specific site.
- o architecture filter: select machines of architecture Personal Computer.
- o machine filter: only machines with SystemRole=Server.
- o group filter: select the identification group.
- o greoup filter: select the netcard group.
-
- 2. Jobs
- -------
- The user can select from the following types of jobs: workstation
- install, server share, remove package, system. Selections are
- ORed together, thus it is possible to select both workstation
- install and remove package jobs. It is also possible to select
- none of the above in which case the system defaults to selecting
- all of them.
- This might sound illogical, quite the contrary. A filter is a
- restriction, if there are no restrictions then none are disallowed.
-
- 3. Packages
- -----------
- This uses the package filter to allow selection of any or all of the
- following types of packages:
- o Workstation
- o Server
- o Inventory
-
-
- The program will enumerate all folders in the specified container,
- for each folder it will display all scalars and then enumerate
- all sub-folders.
