NAME

       smiGetClass   smiGetFirstClass,   smiGetNextClass,   smiGetClassModule,
       smiGetParentClass, smiIsClassScalar - SMI class information routines


SYNOPSIS

       #include <smi.h>

       SmiClass *smiGetClass(SmiModule *smiModulePtr, char *name);

       SmiClass *smiGetFirstClass(SmiModule *smiModulePtr);

       SmiClass *smiGetNextClass(SmiClass *smiClassPtr);

       SmiClass *smiGetParentClass(SmiClass *smiClassPtr);

       SmiModule *smiGetClassModule(SmiClass *smiClassPtr);

       int smiIsClassScalar(SmiClass *smiClassPtr);

       typedef struct SmiClass {
           SmiIdentifier       name;
           SmiDecl             decl;
           SmiStatus           status;
           char                *description;
           char                *reference;
       } SmiClass;



DESCRIPTION

       These functions  retrieve  information  on  a  SMIng  class  definition
       (SMIng).

       smiGetClass(SmiModule  *smiModulePtr,char  *name)  returns a pointer to
       struct SmiClass that represents the class with the given  name  in  the
       given  module(smiModulePtr  ), or NULL if the class with the given name
       does not exist.

       smiGetFirstClass(SmiModule *smiModulePtr) and  smiGetNextClass(SmiClass
       *smiClassPtr)  are  used  to  iterate through the classes of the module
       given by smiModulePtr. They return a pointer to  struct  SmiClass  that
       represents  a class or NULL if there are no classes left in the module,
       or error has occurred.

       smiGetClassModule(SmiClass *smiClassPtr) returns a  pointer  to  struct
       SmiModule, of the module containing the given class.

       smiGetParentClass(SmiClass  *smiClassPtr)  returns  a pointer to struct
       SmiClass pointing to the parent of the given smiClassPtr,  or  NULL  if
       the class is not derived.

       smiIsClassScalar(SmiClass  *smiClassPtr)  returns int 1 if the class is
       scalar(its unique statement contains an empty  list)  or  0  otherwise.
       This  method  can  be  used  in  conjunction  with smiGetFirstUniqueAt-
       tribute() to determine whether the class is meant  to  be  instantiated
       separately (has unique statement with nonempty list), or if it is meant
       to be used as part of another class (has no unique statement).
