X-Hacker.org- NetLib for Clipper, Version 6.0 - <u>it is not necessary to use n_attach() with this version of netlib </u>
[<<Previous Entry] [^^Up^^] [Next Entry>>] [Menu] [About The Guide]
It is not necessary to use N_ATTACH() with this version of NetLib
because the process of attaching to a server is now done when N_LOGIN()
is called. Though superseded, N_ATTACH() has been retained in the
library to maintain compatibility with earlier versions of NetLib.
Future versions may not retain N_ATTACH(), so please take this
opportunity to cease using N_ATTACH() in your code.
Syntax
N_ATTACH( <cServer> )
Parameters
<cServer>
Server name.
Returns
Server connection number. If the attempt is unsuccessful, the function
will return zero.
Description
This function enables you to attach to a server, if necessary.
Note NetWare permits a station to be attached to up to eight
servers simultaneously. If the station is already attached to eight
servers, it will be necessary to detach from one before attaching to a
new server.
If the attempt succeeds, the specified server becomes the currently
selected server. If it is unsuccessful, the current server remains
unchanged.
Attempting to attach to a server that is already attached has no affect
except to return the server's connection number.
