Information Catalog Manager Programming Guide and Reference

Issuing an Information Catalog Manager API call

The standard structure for all the Information Catalog Manager API calls is:

rc = FLGxxx (parameter,
             parameter,
             parameter,
             .
             .
             &ExtCode);

These parameters are typically assigned values or addresses in the code preceding the API call.

rc is the variable for the reason code returned by the API call; a reason code of zero (0) means that the API call completed without errors or warnings. &ExtCode is the address for the extended code sometimes returned by the API call.
