modelId

A numeric modelID that uniquely identifies the model of interest in the EDMdatabase.
The modelID is returned from the functions: sdaiCreateModel , sdaiCreateModelBN , sdaiOpenModelBN , edmiGetModel , edmiGetModelBN , sdaiGetInstanceModel

attrId

A numeric attributeID that uniquely identifies an attribute definition instance in the EDMdatabase.
The attributeID is returned from the sdaiGetAttrDefinition and sdaiGetAttrDefinitionBN functions.

attrStringValue

Specify the searched attribute value if the attribute type is of string is used to specify the hash table key for hash tables of sdaiSTRING data type.

attrIntegerValueSpecify

the searched attribute value if the attribute type is of integer typeis used to specify the hash table key for hash tables of SdaiString, SdaiInstance, and EdmPackedDate data types.

maxBufferSize

Specifies the size (in number of bytes) of the buffer used for receiving matching elements. The number of elements may never exceed the number that fits into a buffer with the size specified in this argument.

*index

In: The index of the aggregate element to start reading from. The index of the first element in the actual aggregate will always be indexed zero, regardless of the aggregate type. Hence the legal index range is: 0<= index < number of elements in the aggregate.
Out: The index of the "last returned matching element". This argument enables the caller to search for elements in an incremental way by specifying this returned "index value plus one" as the input to the next edmiGetHashedAttrInstances function and so on.

*numberOfHits

In: Specifies the maximum number of matching instances to return. If this number is greater than the limitation specified by the <maxBufferSize> argument, then the maximum number of hits will be calculated from the <maxBufferSize> argument.
Out: The number of found matching instances.

*resultBuffer

Address of a buffer in the calling application that will receive the instanceID of each returned matching instance. This buffer is mapped to a SdaiInstance array when the instanceID of each returned matching instance is stored. The <maxBufferSize> argument should prevent the function to write past buffer.
