The Set_CPIC_Side_Information call (function name xcmssi) adds or replaces a side information entry in memory. A CPI-C side information entry associates a set of conversation characteristics with a symbolic definition name. This call overrides entries having the same symbolic destination name.

Syntax

  
CM_ENTRY Set_CPIC_Side_Information(   
  unsigned char FAR *key_lock,             
  SIDE_INFO FAR *side_info_entry,          
  CM_INT32 FAR *side_info_entry_length,    
  CM_INT32 FAR *return_code                
);

Parameters

key_lock
Supplied parameter. This parameter is ignored.

side_info_entry
Supplied parameter. Specifies the contents of a side information entry. The following table describes the side_info_entry structure, which defines the format of the side information entry.

Offset	Description	Type	Length
0	sym_dest_name	unsigned char	8 bytes
8	partner_LU_name	unsigned char	17 bytes
25	reserved	unsigned char	3 bytes
28	TP_name_type	signed long int	32 bits
32	TP_name	unsigned char	64 bytes
96	mode_name	unsigned char	8 bytes
104	conversation_ security_type	signed long int	32 bits
108	security_user_ID	unsigned char	8 bytes
116	security_password	unsigned char	8 bytes

The allowed characters for sym_dest_name are the uppercase letters (A through Z) and the numerals from 0 through 9.

Set_CPIC_Side_Information is the only CPI-C call that lets you specify an SNA service transaction program (TP) as the partner program. The SNA convention for naming a service TP is up to four characters. The first character is a hexadecimal byte between 0x00 and 0x3F. The remaining characters are translated from ASCII to EBCDIC.

For the allowed characters for the other fields, see the description of the corresponding Set_ call. For example, for the mode_name field, see the description of the Set_Mode_Name call.

Each field in the structure must be left-aligned. Pad fields on the right with spaces as necessary.

side_info_entry_length
Supplied parameter. Specifies the length of side_info_entry. It is always 124.

return_code
The code returned from this call. The valid return codes are listed later in this topic.

Return Codes

CM_OK
Primary return code; the call executed successfully.

CM_PROGRAM_PARAMETER_CHECK
Primary return code; one of the following occurred:

A value specified in the side_info_entry structure is invalid.
The left character of the side_info_entry contains a space.

CM_PRODUCT_SPECIFIC_ERROR
Primary return code; a product-specific error occurred and has been logged in the products error log.

State Changes

The conversation can be in any state.

There is no state change.

Remarks

Invalid string parameters in the side information (for example, specifying a nonexistent partner logical unit (LU)) are not detected until Allocate is issued. The error is returned on a call following Allocate.
