|
|
.SH NAME
|
||
|
|
genders_getattr \- get attributes from a genders file
|
||
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
||
|
|
.B #include <genders.h>
|
||
|
|
.sp
|
||
|
|
.BI "int genders_getattr(genders_t handle, char *attrs[], char *vals[], int len, const char *node);"
|
||
|
|
.br
|
||
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
|
\fBgenders_getattr()\fR gets the attributes and values for the node
|
||
|
|
pointed to by \fInode\fR. If \fInode\fR is NULL, attributes and
|
||
|
|
values are retrieved for the current node. The attributes are stored
|
||
|
|
in the attribute list pointed to by \fIattrs\fR and the attribute
|
||
|
|
values are stored in \fIvals\fR. If attribute values are not desired,
|
||
|
|
\fIvals\fR can be set to NULL. \fIlen\fR should indicate the number
|
||
|
|
of elements that can be stored in both the attribute list and
|
||
|
|
attribute values list.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To avoid passing in a list that is not large enough to store all the
|
||
|
|
attributes and attribute values,
|
||
|
|
.BR genders_getmaxattrs (3)
|
||
|
|
should be used to determine the minimum number of elements \fIattrs\fR
|
||
|
|
and \fIvals\fR should be able to store.
|
||
|
|
.BR genders_attrlist_create (3)
|
||
|
|
and
|
||
|
|
.BR genders_vallist_create (3)
|
||
|
|
could be used to create lists that are guaranteed to be large enough
|
||
|
|
to store all attributes and attribute values.
|
||
|
|
.br
|
||
|
|
.SH RETURN VALUES
|
||
|
|
On success, the number of attributes stored in \fIattrs\fR is
|
||
|
|
returned. On error, -1 is returned, and an error code is returned in
|
||
|
|
\fIhandle\fR. The error code can be retrieved via
|
||
|
|
.BR genders_errnum (3)
|
||
|
|
, and a description of the error code can be retrieved via
|
||
|
|
.BR genders_strerror (3).
|
||
|
|
Error codes are defined in genders.h.
|
||
|
|

|
|
.SH ERRORS

||
|
|
.TP
|
||
|
|
.B GENDERS_ERR_NULLHANDLE
|
||
|
|
The \fIhandle\fR parameter is NULL. The genders handle must be
|
||
|
|
created with

|
|
.BR genders_handle_create (3).
|
||
|
|
.TP
|
||
|
|
.B GENDERS_ERR_NOTLOADED

|
.BR genders_load_data (3)

|
||
|
|
.TP
|
||
|
|
.B GENDERS_ERR_OVERFLOW
|
||
|
|
The list pointed to by \fIattrs\fR or \fIvals\fR is not large enough
|
||
|
|
to store all the attributes or attribute values.
|
||
|
|
.TP
|
||
|
|
.B GENDERS_ERR_PARAMETERS

|
||
|
|
.TP
|
||
|
|
.B GENDERS_ERR_NOTFOUND
|
||
|
|
The node pointed to by \fInode\fR cannot be found in the genders file
|
||
|
|
or if \fInode\fR=NULL, the machine genders is running on is not listed
|
||
|
|
in the genders database.
|
||
|
|
.TP
|
||
|
|
.B GENDERS_ERR_MAGIC
|
||
|
|
\fIhandle\fR has an incorrect magic number. \fIhandle\fR does not
