NAME AssignPath -- Creates an assignment to a specified path (V36) SYNOPSIS success = AssignPath(name,path) D0 D1 D2 bool assignpath(strptr,strptr) FUNCTION Sets up a assignment that is expanded upon EACH reference to the name. This is implemented through a new device list type (DLT_ASSIGNPATH, or some such). The path (a string) would be attached to the node. when the name is referenced (Open("FOO:xyzzy"...), the string will be used to determine where to do the open. No permanent lock will be part of it. For example, you could AssignPath() c2: to df2:c, and references to c2: would go to df2:c, even if you change disks. The other major advantage is assigning things to unmounted volumes, which will be requested upon access (useful in startup sequences). INPUTS name - Name of device to be assigned (without trailing ':') path - Name of late assignment to be resolved at each reference RESULT success - Success/failure indicator of the operation SEE ALSO assignadd(), assignlock(), assignlate(), open()
