Hi Mohammad,


All `ios_cur`, `ios_search` and `ios_search_by_id` functions will return `NULL`
when the entry does not exist.
I don't think that's a failure or error. Everything in the library worked
as expected and not found the requested item.
Oh, of course.
We have to return PK_IOS_INVALID in that case, and set status to PK_OK.

Do you mean we have to return `NULL`?
Or ...
Hm yes,  return NULL and set pk_errno to PK_OK.
Your code was right, sorry for the noise :)


I see that you found a common agreement. I agree that these functions cannot trigger an error. Non-existence of an IOS is a perfectly normal behaviour.

Regards
Ege
