NAME

       CMCIClientFT.references() - Enumerate association instances for a class instance

SYNOPSIS

       #include <cmci.h>

       CMPIEnumeration*
       CMCIClientFT.references(CMCIClient*cl,
                      CMPIObjectPath*op,
                      constchar*resultClass,
                      constchar*role,
                      CMPIFlagsflags,
                      char**properties,
                      CMPIStatus*rc);

DESCRIPTION

       Enumerate association instances that refer to the Instance defined by the op reference.

       Arguments  are  the  client  object  pointer  cl, an ObjectPath object pointer op with the
       reference that contains namespace and classname components, resultClass, where if it's not
       NULL  is  a  valid  class  name  that  is  used  to  filter the returned set of Objects by
       eliminating objects that aren't an Instance of this Class or one of its subclasses,  role,
       where if it's not NULL is a valid property name that is used to filter the returned set of
       instance objects by eliminating objects that aren't associated to the source object by  an
       association  where  the  source  object  plays  the  specified  role, i.e. the name of the
       property in the association class that refers to the source object has to match the  value
       of  this  parameter,  flags  that  affect  the  content  of  the  returned  class instance
       structures, a properties array, and rc which returns the operation status (suppressed when
       NULL).

       The   flags   argument   is   a   bit  mask  that  can  contains  the  following  flags  -
       CMPI_FLAG_IncludeQualifiers and CMPI_FLAG_IncludeClassOrigin.

RETURN VALUE

       When  successful  the  CMCIClientFT.references()  function  returns   a   pointer   to   a
       CMPIEnumeration  object  that  contains  the class association instance objects found that
       match the association criteria, and sets a successful operation status code in  rc.   When
       unsuccessful  it  returns  a  NULL  pointer  and  sets the operation status error code and
       corresponding error string in rc.
