Callbacks

Some FSVIEW calls do not directly return information to the calling program but make repeated calls back to a user-defined call. This is because fsviewc only processes items in blocks of ten.

For example, FSV-C-get-files-users uses the FSV-C-add-to-user-list callback to return a list of logged-on users for a specific file. Because fsviewc processes blocks of ten, repeated calls must be made in order to handle enough blocks of ten to code the total number of logged-on users being returned.

The following example shows an FSV-C-add-to-user-list callback. The entry point in this program allows fsviewc to execute the main body of the program. Without the entry point, the program would just set the number of users to 1 and exit:
