OTCfgIsSameEntityRef 3
Compares two entity references.
Boolean OTCfgIsSameEntityRef (const CfgEntityRef* entityRef1,
const CfgEntityRef* entityRef2,
Boolean ignoreArea);
entityRef1
On input, a pointer to a value of type CfgEntityRef (page 99) for
one of the entity references that is to be compared.
entityRef2 On input, a pointer to a value of type CfgEntityRef (page 99) for
the second entity reference that is to be compared.
ignoreArea On input, a Boolean value. If ignoreArea is kCfgIgnoreArea,
OTCfgIsSameEntityRef ignores the area ID when comparing
entityRef1 and entityRef2. If ignoreArea is kCfgDontIgnoreArea,
OTCfgIsSameEntityRef does not ignore the area ID when
comparing entityRef1 and entityRef2.
function result TRUE if the entity references represent the same entity; FALSE if
the entity references represent different entities.
DISCUSSION
The OTCfgIsSameEntityRef function determines whether two entity references
represent the same area. For a discussion of the circumstances in which calling
OTCfgIsSameEntityRef is particularly useful, see “Areas and Sets” (page 48).
OTCfgCreateEntity 3
Creates an entity in an area.
OSStatus OTCfgCreateEntity (CfgDatabaseRef dbRef,
CfgAreaID areaID,
CfgEntityInfo* entityInfo,
CfgEntityRef* entityRef);
