NAME

       smiGetClass   smiGetFirstClass,   smiGetNextClass,  smiGetClassModule,  smiGetParentClass,
       smiIsClassScalar - SMI class information routines

SYNOPSIS

       #include <smi.h>

       SmiClass *smiGetClass(SmiModule *smiModulePtr, char *name);

       SmiClass *smiGetFirstClass(SmiModule *smiModulePtr);

       SmiClass *smiGetNextClass(SmiClass *smiClassPtr);

       SmiClass *smiGetParentClass(SmiClass *smiClassPtr);

       SmiModule *smiGetClassModule(SmiClass *smiClassPtr);

       int smiIsClassScalar(SmiClass *smiClassPtr);

       typedef struct SmiClass {
           SmiIdentifier       name;
           SmiDecl             decl;
           SmiStatus           status;
           char                *description;
           char                *reference;
       } SmiClass;

DESCRIPTION

       These functions retrieve information on a SMIng class definition (SMIng).

       smiGetClass(SmiModule *smiModulePtr,char *name) returns a pointer to struct SmiClass  that
       represents  the  class  with the given name in the given module(smiModulePtr ), or NULL if
       the class with the given name does not exist.

       smiGetFirstClass(SmiModule *smiModulePtr) and smiGetNextClass(SmiClass  *smiClassPtr)  are
       used  to  iterate  through  the classes of the module given by smiModulePtr. They return a
       pointer to struct SmiClass that represents a class or NULL if there are no classes left in
       the module, or error has occurred.

       smiGetClassModule(SmiClass  *smiClassPtr)  returns  a  pointer to struct SmiModule, of the
       module containing the given class.

       smiGetParentClass(SmiClass *smiClassPtr) returns a pointer to struct SmiClass pointing  to
       the parent of the given smiClassPtr, or NULL if the class is not derived.

       smiIsClassScalar(SmiClass  *smiClassPtr)  returns  int 1 if the class is scalar(its unique
       statement contains an empty list) or 0 otherwise. This method can be used  in  conjunction
       with   smiGetFirstUniqueAttribute()  to  determine  whether  the  class  is  meant  to  be
       instantiated separately (has unique statement with nonempty list), or if it is meant to be
       used as part of another class (has no unique statement).
