Returns a list of hotlink instance elements placed from the given hotlink node.

    GSErrCode ACAPI_Database (
        APIDb_GetHotlinkInstancesID,
        const API_Guid*          hotlinkNodeGuid,
        GS::Array<API_Guid>*     elementRefList
    );

 

Parameters

hotlinkNodeGuid

[in] the Guid of the hotlink node

elementRefList

[out] Guid list of the hotlink instances

 

Return Values

NoError

The function has completed with success.

APIERR_BADPARS

any of the parameters is nullptr

APIERR_BADID

no hotlink element found by the specified Guid

For other common API errors see the API Errors document.

 

Remarks

This function retrieves the API_HotlinkType hotlink instance elements of the specified hotlink node.

 

Example

Int32 allInstancesCounter = 0;

        if (ACAPI_Database (APIDb_GetHotlinkInstancesID, &nodeRefList[iNode], &elementRefList) == NoError) {
            for (UIndex iElem = 0; iElem < elementRefList.GetSize (); iElem++) {
                API_Element element;
