libvirt print the error on stderr by calling <a href="html/libvirt-virterror.html#virDefaultErrorFunc">virDefaultErrorFunc</a>.
For asynchronous error handing, set such a function doing nothing to avoid
the error being reported on stderr, and call virConnGetLastError or
virGetLastError when an API call returned an error value. It can be a good
idea to use <a href="html/libvirt-virterror.html#virResetLastError">virResetError</a> or <a href="html/libvirt-virterror.html#virConnResetLastError">virConnResetLastError</a>
once an error has been processed fully.</p><p>At the python level, there only a global reporting callback function at

relies on QEmu for the machine emulation like fully virtualized guests the

<h3>what is <span class="style1">libvirt?</span></h3>
<p>Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software available
under the <a href="http://www.opensource.org/licenses/lgpl-license.html">GNU
Lesser General Public License</a>. Virtualization of the Linux Operating
System means the ability to run multiple instances of Operating Systems
concurently on a single hardware system where the basic resources are driven
by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing long term stable C API
initially for the <a href="http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/Research/SRG/netos/xen/index.html">Xen
paravirtualization</a> but should be able to integrate other virtualization
mechanisms if needed.</p>

note that Daniel Berrange provides <a href="http://search.cpan.org/~danberr/Sys-Virt-0.1.0/">bindings for Perl</a>
too.</p><p>The Python binding should be complete and are mostly automatically
generated from the formal description of the API in xml. The bindings are
articulated around 2 classes <code>virConnect</code> and virDomain mapping to
the C types. Functions in the C API taking either type as argument then
becomes methods for the classes, their name is just stripped from the
virConnect or virDomain(Get) prefix and the first letter gets converted to
lower case, for example the C functions:</p><p><code>int <a href="html/libvirt-libvirt.html#virConnectNumOfDomains">virConnectNumOfDomains</a>
(virConnectPtr conn);</code></p><p><code>int <a href="html/libvirt-libvirt.html#virDomainSetMaxMemory">virDomainSetMaxMemory</a>

automaticallygenerated from the formal description of the API in xml. The

mapping tothe C types. Functions in the C API taking either type as argument
thenbecomes methods for the classes, their name is just stripped from
thevirConnect or virDomain(Get) prefix and the first letter gets converted
