Directory and Security Server Only

Used only with app_info_13.

struct app_res_list_10 {
    unsigned char  LSFAR * LSPTR   ar110_alias;
    unsigned char                  ar110_pad_1[6 ];
    unsigned char                  ar110_device[DEVLEN + 1];
};

LAN Server and OS/2 Warp Server Only

Used only with app_info_3.

struct app_res_list {
    unsigned char       arl_alias[ALIAS_LEN + 1];
    unsigned char       arl_pad_1;
    unsigned char       arl_device[DEVLEN + 1];
};

where:

• arl_alias specifies the alias for the resource required by the application. The alias must exist. Alias name may be just the alias name by itself if the alias is defined in the resource domain of the application definition. Or you may use the global name or extended alias name. The global name needs the cell name, resource domain name and the alias name along with the necessary directory names. The extended name uses only the alias with @ and the resource name. If the cell name is different than the local cell, then use another @ and the cell name.

• arl_pad_1 word-aligns the data structure component.

• arl_device indicates the device assigned to the resource specified by arl_alias when the application starts. If arl_alias specifies a file alias, arl_device must be a drive letter followed by a colon (:). Valid drive letters for OS/2 applications are D-Z. Valid drive letters for DOS applications are A-X. If arl_alias specifies a print alias, valid values for arl_device are LPT1-LPT9. If arl_alias specifies a serial device alias, valid values for arl_device are LPT1-LPT9 and COM1-COM16.

  Note: Additionally, each app_res_list structure must have a unique value for its arl_device field. For example, if arl_alias specifies a file alias, the drive letter specified in the arl_device field must be different from appx_app_drive, appx_wrkdir_drive, and any other arl_device fields for file aliases.
