int results_per_fetch,

hc_query_result_set_t **rsetp);

Description

This function retrieves OIDs and optionally name-value records matching a query. If the
selects

list is NULL, only OIDs are retrieved. If selects is not NULL, name-value records are

also retrieved and should each be freed using

“hc_nvr_free” on page 66

. In both cases the result

set should be freed using

“hc_qrs_free” on page 99

.

Note –

When a query is incorrect and elicits an error from the server, the error is often reported

after

“hc_qrs_free” on page 99

and not from hc_query_ez. Your application should be

prepared to receive and report an error from either place.
