The mi_get_parameter_info() function

The mi_get_parameter_info() function populates a parameter-information descriptor with the current session parameters.

Syntax

mi_integer mi_get_parameter_info (parameter_info)
   MI_PARAMETER_INFO *parameter_info;
parameter_info
A pointer to a user-provided parameter-information descriptor to store the current session parameters.
Valid in client LIBMI application? Valid in user-defined routine?
Yes Yes

Usage

The mi_get_parameter_info() function returns current session parameters into the parameter-information descriptor (MI_PARAMETER_INFO structure) that parameter_info references. The parameter information structure controls whether callbacks are enabled and whether pointers are checked during the session.
Tip: You must allocate this parameter-information descriptor before you call mi_get_parameter_info().

The mi_get_parameter_info() function also initializes the DataBlade® API when it is the first DataBlade® API function in a client LIBMI application.

To set the session parameters, use the mi_get_parameter_info() function.

For more information about the parameter-information descriptor, see the Informix® DataBlade® API Programmer's Guide.
