RpcNsMgmtBindingUnexport

The RpcNsMgmtBindingUnexport function removes multiple binding handles and objects from an entry in the name-service database.

#include <rpc.h>
RPC_STATUS RPC_ENTRY RpcNsMgmtBindingUnexport( 
  unsigned long  EntryNameSyntax,   
  unsigned char *  EntryName,   
  RPC_IF_ID *  IfId,            
  unsigned long  VersOption,    
  UUID_VECTOR *  ObjectUuidVec  
);

Parameters

EntryNameSyntax

Specifies an integer value that indicates the syntax of the next argument, EntryName.

To use the syntax specified in the registry value HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Rpc\NameService\
DefaultSyntax, provide a value of RPC_C_NS_SYNTAX_DEFAULT.

EntryName

Points to the name of the entry from which to remove binding handles and object UUIDs.

IfId

Points to an interface identification. A null argument value indicates not to unexport any binding handles (only object UUIDs are to be unexported).

VersOption

Specifies how the RpcNsMgmtBindingUnexport routine uses the VersMajor and VersMinor fields of the IfId argument.

The following table describes valid values for the VersOption argument:

VersOption values Description

RPC_C_VERS_ALL Unexports all bindings for the interface UUID in IfId, regardless of the version numbers. For this value, specify 0 for both the major and minor versions in IfId.

RPC_C_VERS_IF_ID Unexports the bindings for the compatible interface UUID in IfId with the same major version and with a minor version greater than or equal to the minor version in IfId.

RPC_C_VERS_EXACT Unexports the bindings for the interface UUID in IfId with the same major and minor versions as in IfId.

RPC_C_VERS_MAJOR_ONLY Unexports the bindings for the interface UUID in IfId with the same major version as in IfId (ignores the minor version). For this value, specify 0 for the minor version in IfId.

RPC_C_VERS_UPTO Unexports the bindings that offer a version of the specified interface UUID less than or equal to the specified major and minor version. (For example, if the IfId contained V2.0 and the name-service database entry contained binding handles with the versions V1.3, V2.0, and V2.1, the RpcNsMgmtBindingUnexport routine unexports the binding handles with V1.3 and V2.0.)

ObjectUuidVec

Points to a vector of object UUIDs that the server no longer wants to offer. The application constructs this vector. A null argument value indicates there are no object UUIDs to unexport (only binding handles are to be unexported).

VersOption values	Description
RPC_C_VERS_ALL	Unexports all bindings for the interface UUID in IfId, regardless of the version numbers. For this value, specify 0 for both the major and minor versions in IfId.
RPC_C_VERS_IF_ID	Unexports the bindings for the compatible interface UUID in IfId with the same major version and with a minor version greater than or equal to the minor version in IfId.
RPC_C_VERS_EXACT	Unexports the bindings for the interface UUID in IfId with the same major and minor versions as in IfId.
RPC_C_VERS_MAJOR_ONLY	Unexports the bindings for the interface UUID in IfId with the same major version as in IfId (ignores the minor version). For this value, specify 0 for the minor version in IfId.
RPC_C_VERS_UPTO	Unexports the bindings that offer a version of the specified interface UUID less than or equal to the specified major and minor version. (For example, if the IfId contained V2.0 and the name-service database entry contained binding handles with the versions V1.3, V2.0, and V2.1, the RpcNsMgmtBindingUnexport routine unexports the binding handles with V1.3 and V2.0.)

Return Values

Value	Meaning
RPC_S_OK	Success
RPC_S_INVALID_VERS_OPTION	Invalid version option
RPC_S_NOTHING_TO_UNEXPORT	Nothing to unexport
RPC_S_INVALID_NAME_SYNTAX	Invalid name syntax
RPC_S_UNSUPPORTED_NAME_SYNTAX	Unsupported name syntax
RPC_S_INCOMPLETE_NAME	Incomplete name
RPC_S_ENTRY_NOT_FOUND	Name-service entry not found
RPC_S_NAME_SERVICE_UNAVAILABLE	Name service unavailable
RPC_S_INTERFACE_NOT_FOUND	Interface not found
RPC_S_NOT_ALL_OBJS_UNEXPORTED	Not all objects unexported

Remarks

The RpcNsMgmtBindingUnexport routine allows a management application to remove one of the following from a name-service database entry:

All the binding handles for a specified interface UUID, qualified by the interface version numbers (major and minor)
One or more object UUIDs of resources
Both binding handles and object UUIDs of resources

A management application can unexport interfaces and objects in a single call to RpcNsMgmtBindingUnexport, or it can unexport them separately.

If RpcNsMgmtBindingUnexport does not find any binding handles for the specified interface, the routine returns an RPC_S_INTERFACE_NOT_FOUND status code and does not unexport the object UUIDs, if any were specified.

If one or more binding handles for the specified interface are found and unexported without error, RpcNsMgmtBindingUnexport unexports the specified object UUIDs, if any.

If any of the specified object UUIDs were not found, RpcNsMgmtBindingUnexport returns the RPC_S_NOT_ALL_OBJS_UNEXPORTED status code.

In addition to calling RpcNsMgmtBindingUnexport, a management application should also call the RpcMgmtEpUnregister routine to unregister the servers that have registered with the endpoint-map database.

Note Name-service databases are designed to be relatively stable. In replicated name services, frequent use of the RpcNsBindingExport and RpcNsBindingUnexport routines causes the name service to repeatedly remove and replace the same entry and can cause performance problems.
