Appendix I. Detailed Implementation for the Case Study in Chapter 3
Group Plug-In
To implement a group plug-in, application programming interfaces (APIs) are required. Note that when DB2 called the Init function, it passed a callback function db2secLogMessage where the plug-in code can log debugging or diagnostic information to db2diag.log.
db2secGroupPluginInit
- Assign all the function addresses to the function pointers.
- Set
plugintype = DB2SEC_PLUGIN_TYPE_GROUP. - Set the version based on the version of the security plug-in API you are using. It is suggested that you use the latest version number (that is, the define
DB2SEC_API_VERSIONfrom the header filedb2secPlugin.h).
