NAME
     dat_registry_add_provider - declare the  Provider  with  the
     Dynamic Registry

SYNOPSIS
     cc [ flag... ] file... -ldat [ library... ]
     #include 

     DAT_RETURN
         dat_registry_add_provider (
         IN    const DAT_PROVIDER          *provider,
         IN    const DAT_PROVIDER_INFO     *provider_info
         )


PARAMETERS
     provider         Self-description of a Provider.


     provider_info    Attributes of the Provider.


DESCRIPTION
     The Provider declares itself with the Dynamic Registry. Note
     that  the  caller  can  choose  to  register itself multiple
     times, for example once for each port. The choice of what to
     virtualize is up to the Provider. Each registration provides
     an Interface Adapter to  DAT.  Each  Provider  must  have  a
     unique name.


     The same IA Name cannot be added multiple times. An  attempt
     to  register the same IA Name again results in an error with
     the return value DAT_PROVIDER_ALREADY_REGISTERED.


     The contents of provider_info must be the same as those  the
     Consumer  uses in the call to dat_ia_open(3DAT) directly, or
     the ones provided indirectly defined  by  the  header  files
     with which the Consumer compiled.

RETURN VALUES
     DAT_SUCCESS

         The operation was successful.


     DAT_INSUFFICIENT_RESOURCES

         The maximum number of Providers was already registered.
