Returns the value of the corresponding SLP property name. The returned
string is owned by the library and MUST NOT be freed.
Parameters
name
The name of a net.slp property to get. See OpenSLP
Users Guide for a list of supported properties
Returns
A very thread unsafe character pointer to a string containing the property
value. If an error occurs, like the property name is not
found, NULL is returned so don't forget to check for NULL!
Status
OpenSLP 0.6.0
Fully implemented as specified by RFC 2614.
Notes
For some reason the SLP API writers decided to make SLPGetProperty() and
SLPSetProperty() calls impossible to implement in a thread safe manner.
For this reason OpenSLP only allows read only access to SLP properties.
Properties are read into static data structures when the process loads,
and never changed so at least SLPGetProperty() can be called from threaded
applications.
