**************> QUESTION level 1 --> level 2 SPECIALIST <**************
Hi,
I cannot find examples for the use of ODM API. Could anyone show me
how to do (for example) 'lsattr -El mem0' or 'odmget -q"name=mem0"
CuAt'
with these routines?
Thanks in advance,
Ralf

RESPONSE:
Are you trying to view information in ODM about API?
Is ADSM and/or API currently running on the system?
And if so for what device, and optical library?
What type of information do you need about API from the ODM?
Or are you just trying to use or install API?
Can you be more specific about what you are trying to do?
Reply with response.

I want to retrieve information from ODM trought a C program, not
using the commands like lsattr or odmget.
What I like to do is to write a simple program that could tell me
the amount of memory/L2 cache in the system. These info are stored
in the ODM database (CuAt) since I can get them entering the
'odmget -q"name=mem0" CuAt' command.
But the odmget command is using an API (I think odm_get_list that
is referenced in odmi.h or somethings like that).
Using info I didn't find example for these routines. Could you help
me sending an example?
Or better could you send me the source of odmget command?
Thanks in advance.

RESPONSE:
The following are some of the ODM subroutine calls that can be found in
/lib/libodm.a, with their header files in /usr/include/odmi.h:
odm_add_obj Adds a new object to the object class
odm_change_obj Changes the contents of an object
odm_get_by_id Retrieves an object by specifying its ID
odm_get_first Retrieves the first object that matches criteria
odm_get_list Retrieves a list of objects that match criteria
odm_get_next Retrieves the next object that matches criteria
odm_get_obj Retrieves an object that matches criteria
odm_rm_by_id Removes an object by specifying its ID
odm_rm_obj Removes all objects that match the specified criteria
odm_run_method Invokes a method for the specified object
odm_close_class Closes an object class
odm_create_class Creates an empty object class
odm_lock Locks an object class
odm_mount_class Retrieves an object class description
odm_open_class Opens an object class
odm_rm_class Removes an object class
odm_set_path Sets the default path for object classes
odm_set_perms Sets default permissions for object class creation
odm_unlock Unlocks an object class or group of classes
odm_err_msg Retrieves a message string
odm_free_list Frees memory allocated for the odm_get_list subroutine
odm_initialize Initialzes an ODM session
odm_terminate Ends an ODM sesion
These routines are callable from the C programming language

ADDITIONAL RESPONSE:
The only example code that demonstrates any ODM calls would be
part of the source code developer files that would be part of the
"bos.adt.samples" fileset. In particular, the source files within
/usr/samples/cfg will includes code that manipulates ODM in reference
to device configuration.
The only other references to use of these ODM calls would be in
InfoExplorer on a per system call basis.
