To connect to the external user mapping repository, the federated
server calls the FSUMconnect function.
Syntax
SQL_API_RC SQL_API_FN FSUMconnect
(void** a_FSUMRepository,
const char* a_cfgFilePath)
Inputs
- const char* a_cfgFilePath
- The full path to the plug-in library. If the configuration file is placed
in the same directory as the plug-in library, the plug-in can use this path
information to locate the configuration file.
Outputs
- void** a_FSUMRepository
- The pointer to the connection descriptor is cast to void before it is
sent to federated server. In subsequent API function calls, the federated
server passes the pointer to the plug-in, and the plug-in must cast the pointer
back the real structure of the connection descriptor.
