The information in this article applies to:
When writing backup software it is sometimes useful to get the hierarchy of the Exchange directory. This article describes how to programmatically get the Exchange hierarchy of the Exchange Directory.
The sample below uses a BackupListNode structure to hold the hierarchy.
This is what that structure looks like:
typedef struct _BackupListNode
{
struct _BackupListNode __RPC_FAR *pnodeNext;
struct _BackupListNode __RPC_FAR *pnodeChildren;
RPC_SZ szName;
} BackupListNode;
//Program Start
/*******************************************************************
// This code returns a BackupListNode structure that
// represents the Organizational Hierarchy of Exchange.
//******************************************************************
#define UNICODE
#define _UNICODE
#include <SADAPI.H> //this header is included in the Platform SDK
#include <TCHAR.h>
void main(void)
{
BackupListNode* pNode = NULL;
RPC_SC sc;
PRPCBINDINFO pBindInfo = new RPCBINDINFO;
TCHAR wszServer[256];
ZeroMemory(pBindInfo, sizeof(RPCBINDINFO));
// Replace "ExchangeServer" with the server name you
// want to get the hierarchy from
_tcscpy(wszServer, L"ExchangeServer");
sc = SAD_ScBind(pBindInfo, wszServer);
if (sc != ERROR_SUCCESS) return;
sc = SAD_ScGetBackupListNodeW(pBindInfo->wszServer, &pNode);
// pNode will contain your entire hierarchy as seen by
// the Server (wszServer)
SAD_FreeBackupListNode(pNode);
SAD_Unbind(pBindInfo);
delete pBindInfo;
}
