 assoc_handle

    OpenVMS usage:association_id
    type:         longword (unsigned)
    access:       write only
    mechanism:    by 32-bit or 64-bit reference (Alpha and Integrity
                  servers)
    The 32-bit or 64-bit address (on Alpha and Integrity server
    systems) into which $ICC_OPEN_ASSOC writes the handle assigned
    to the opened association.

 assoc_name

    OpenVMS usage:char_string
    type:         character-coded text string
    access:       read only
    mechanism:    by 32-bit or 64-bit descriptor (Alpha and Integrity
                  servers)
    An ASCII character string of up to 31 characters in length
    specifying the name of the application opening the association.
    Null (0 length), and empty or blank association names are not
    allowed. If this argument is omitted (that is, a zero is passed
    in by value), it signifies that the user wants to open the
    default association. This argument is case sensitive.

 logical_name

    OpenVMS usage:logical name
    type:         character-coded text string
    access:       read only
    mechanism:    by 32-bit or 64-bit descriptor (Alpha and Integrity
                  servers)
    A logical name in a clusterwide logical name table used to
    maintain the simple association registry. The logical name
    represents the name of the service provided by the application.
    Logical names are case sensitive.

 logical_table

    OpenVMS usage:logical name table
    type:         character-coded text string
    access:       read only
    mechanism:    by 32-bit or 64-bit descriptor (Alpha and Integrity
                  servers)
    The table containing the logical name logical_name. Logical
    name tables are converted to uppercase. Unless your application
    requires an application-specific logical name table,
    this argument should be either the default ICC Registry
    search list (ICC$REGISTRY), or the default registry table
    (ICC$REGISTRY_TABLE).

 conn_event_rtn

    OpenVMS usage:user_routine
    type:         procedure_entry_mask
    access:       call without stack unwinding
    mechanism:    by 32-bit or 64-bit linkage reference (Alpha and
                  Integrity servers)
    The address of the AST routine to be called for incoming connect
    events. This routine will be called in the mode of the caller.
    (No mechanism is provided for the routine to be called at a
    different mode).

    You must have a conn_event_rtn to operate as a server.

 disc_event_rtn

    OpenVMS usage:user_routine
    type:         procedure_entry_mask
    access:       call without stack unwinding
    mechanism:    by 32-bit or 64-bit linkage reference (Alpha and
                  Integrity servers)
    The address of the AST routine to be called for incoming
    disconnect events. This routine will be called in the mode of the
    caller. (No mechanism is provided for the routine to be called at
    a different mode). The arguments, conn_event_rtn, and disc_event_
    rtn, may reference the same routine.

 recv_rtn

    OpenVMS usage:user_routine
    type:         procedure_entry_mask
    access:       call without stack unwinding
    mechanism:    by 32-bit or 64-bit linkage reference (Alpha and
                  Integrity servers)
    The address of the AST routine to be called for incoming new data
    events.

    If the user provides this routine, it indicates that the
    user will supply a buffer of the size required (specified in
    an argument to the recv_rtn at each call) each time one is
    requested. If the user supplies this routine, receive calls
    should only be issued after receive events arrive and sufficient
    buffer space has been allocated to handle the incoming data.

    This routine will be called in the mode of the caller. (No
    mechanism is provided for the routine to be called at a different
    mode).

 maxflowbufcnt

    OpenVMS usage:longword_unsigned
    type:         longword (unsigned)
    access:       read only
    mechanism:    by value
    The maximum number of pending inbound messages (per connection)
    that ICC will allow the user before initiating flow control. A
    message is pending if it is being held within ICC but no receive
    call(s) are outstanding from the user.

    Default = 5 (Pass 0 to get the default)

 prot

    OpenVMS usage:longword_unsigned
    type:         longword (unsigned)
    access:       read only
    mechanism:    by value
    This argument is ignored for non-server applications.

    The default protection scheme for this association is as follows:

    0 - access for everyone (default)
    1 - stops WORLD access
    2 - stops both WORLD and GROUP access

    Advanced access control is provided by ICC Security objects. For
    information about ICC system management and security, see the HP
    OpenVMS System Manager's Manual.
