This password is associated with a user that is defined in a
validation list (*VLDL) or the password for a user profile on the
AS/400 system.
IBM HTTP Server for AS/400 does not allow access to the
PASSWORD variable if authorization is configured which uses
AS/400 user profiles and passwords for authentication.
To prevent an application from obtaining anAS/400 user profile
password, HTTPD_extract() is sensitive to the type of protect setups
that are currently configured. If a protection setup is configured
with a password file of %%SYSTEM%% (protection requiring
AS/400 user profile password), HTTP_extract() for PASSWORD
returns HTTP_PARAMETER_ERROR and sets the value parameter
to *CONFLICT. Otherwise, HTTP_extract() returns the appropriate
value.
HTTPD_reverse_translate()
Translates a file system path to a URL. Validin all steps.
The name of the file system object and the buffer containing the URL are
in the default CCSID of the job.
void
HTTPD_reverse_translate(
unsigned char *handle, /* i; handle (NULL right now) */
unsigned char *name, /* i; name of the file system object */
unsigned long *name_length, /* i; length of the name */
unsigned char *value, /* o; buffer which contains the URL */
unsigned long *value_length, /* i/o; size of buffer/length of URL */
long *return_code); /* o; return code */
HTTPD_translate()
Translates a URL to a file system path. Valid in all steps.
The CCSID for QUERY_STRING depends upon the step and the CGI
mode. For all steps except Service, these parameters are in the default
CCSID of the job. For the Service step, the CGI mode determines the
CCSID. For the %%MIXED%% CGI mode, these fields are in EBCIDIC
CCSID 37. For all other CGI modes, these fields are in the default CCSID
of the job.
void
HTTPD_translate(
unsigned char *handle, /* i; handle (NULL right now) */
unsigned char *name, /* i; name of the URL */
unsigned long *name_length, /* i; length of the name */
unsigned char *url_value, /* o; buffer containing translated URL */
unsigned long *url_value_length, /* i/o; buffer size/length of translated URL */
unsigned char *path_trans, /* o; buffer containing PATH_TRANSLATED */
unsigned long *path_trans_length,/* i/o; size of buffer/length of PATH_TRANSLATED */
unsigned char *query_string, /* o; buffer containing QUERY_STRING */
unsigned long *query_string_length,/* i/o; size of buffer/length of QUERY_STRING */
long *return_code); /* o; return code */
HTTPD_set()
Sets the value of a variable associated with this request. The valid variables
you can use for the name parameter are the same as those are used by the
CGI program.
Note that you can also create variables with this function. If any variables
you create are prefixed by ″HTTP_″, they are sent as headers in the
response, without the ″HTTP_″prefix. For example, if you want to see a
Location header, use HTTPD_set() with the variable name
HTTP_LOCATION.
