To begin an enumeration, this argument + is set to zero. To continue an enumeration (thereby getting + successive addresses from the host entry structure), the value should + be set to the function's last returned value. The enumeration is + complete when a value of zero is returned. +``hostEnt`` + A pointer to a :ref:`PRHostEnt` structure obtained from + :ref:`PR_GetHostByName` or :ref:`PR_GetHostByAddr`. +``port`` + The port number to be assigned as part of the :ref:`PRNetAddr` + structure. This parameter is not checked for validity. +``address`` + On input, a pointer to a :ref:`PRNetAddr` structure. On output, this + structure is filled in by the runtime if the result of the call is + greater than 0. + + +Returns +~~~~~~~ + +The function returns one of the following values: + +- If successful, the function returns the value you should specify in + the ``enumIndex`` parameter for the next call of the enumerator. If + the function returns 0, the enumeration is ended. +- If unsuccessful, the function returns -1. You can retrieve the reason + for the failure by calling :ref:`PR_GetError`. + + +Description +----------- + +:ref:`PR_EnumerateHostEnt` is a stateless enumerator. The principle input, +the :ref:`PRHostEnt` structure, is not modified. |
