Grouping LLCS FTAM Functions

ft_bgroup()

#include %</opt/ftam/include/map.h>

#include %</opt/ftam/include/mapftam.h>

Return_code

ft_bgroup (connection_id, threshold, return_event_name,

input_dcb, inout_dcb)

Connection_id connection_id;

Uint32 threshold;

Local_event_name return_event_name;

char *input_dcb;

struct Ft_bgroup_out_dcb **inout_dcb;

Issue an asynchronous ft_bgroup() to start a set of grouped functions.

• You cannot nest an ft_bgroup() function within another ft_bgroup()

function (i.e., you cannot invoke ft_bgroup() within another set of

grouped functions).

• During ft_connect(), you must negotiate the FT_FU_GROUPING

functional_units to use ft_bgroup().

Ft_bgroup_out_dcb

struct Ft_bgroup_out_dcb {

Uint32 size;

struct Api_rc result;

};
