Typedef Documentation

Handle for a initialized context.

Security credentials.

It is up to the caller to allocate and free this pointers. DMLite will keep a copy internaly. Non used values MUST be NULL.

Handle for the plugin manager.

Security context.

Used to handle user and group information.

Function Documentation

unsigned dmlite_api_version ( void  )

Gets the API version.

int dmlite_context_free ( dmlite_context context)

Destroys the context.

Parameters
contextThe context to free.
Returns
0 on success, error code otherwise.
dmlite_context* dmlite_context_new ( dmlite_manager manager)

Returns a usable context from the loaded libraries.

Parameters
managerThe plugin manager.
Returns
NULL on failure. The error code can be checked with dmlite_manager_error.
Note
A context is NOT thread safe.
int dmlite_errno ( dmlite_context context)

Returns the error code from the last failure.

Parameters
contextThe context that was used in the failed function.
Returns
The error code.
const char* dmlite_error ( dmlite_context context)

Error string from the last failed function.

Parameters
contextThe context that was used in the failed function.
Returns
A string with the error description. Do NOT free it.
int dmlite_errtype ( dmlite_context context)

Returns the type of the last error.

Parameters
contextThe context that was used in the failed function.
Returns
The error type.
const dmlite_security_context* dmlite_get_security_context ( dmlite_context context)

Returns the security context. There is no need to free.

Parameters
contextThe DM context.
Returns
The security context.
int dmlite_manager_errno ( dmlite_manager manager)

Returns the last error code.

Parameters
managerThe plugin manager used in the failing function.
Returns
The last error code, WITHOUT the error type byte.
const char* dmlite_manager_error ( dmlite_manager manager)

Returns the string that describes the last error.

Parameters
managerThe plugin manager used in the failing function.
Returns
A pointer to the error string. Do NOT free it.
int dmlite_manager_errtype ( dmlite_manager manager)

Returns the type of the last error.

Parameters
managerThe plugin manager used in the failing function.
Returns
