Informix DataBlade API Programmer's Manual DataBlade API Function Descriptions

The mi_funcarg_get_routine_id() returns the routine identifier for the expensive UDR of a cost or selectivity function.

mi_integer mi_funcarg_get_routine_id(funcarg_ptr)

MI_FUNCARG *funcarg_ptr;

funcarg_ptr

is a pointer to the MI_FUNCARG structure that describes the expensive UDR.

Valid in Client LIBMI Application?	Valid in User-Defined Routine?
No	Yes

The mi_funcarg_get_routine_id() function returns the routine identifier from the MI_FUNCARG structure that funcarg_ptr references. The MI_FUNCARG structure describes an argument of an expensive UDR to its cost or selectivity function.

Tip: The DataBlade API provides the mi_funcid data type to hold routine identifiers. The mi_funcid data type has the same structure as the mi_integer data type. However, this DataBlade API function still assumes that routine identifiers are of type mi_integer.

Use the mi_funcarg_get_routine_id() function in a cost or selectivity function to obtain the routine identifier for the expensive UDR.

See the descriptions of the following functions: mi_funcarg_get_argtype(), mi_funcarg_get_colno(), mi_funcarg_get_constant(), mi_funcarg_get_datalen(), mi_funcarg_get_datatype(), mi_funcarg_get_distrib(), mi_funcarg_get_routine_name(), mi_funcarg_get_tabid(), and mi_funcarg_isnull().
