Structure virConf

struct _virConf {
The content of this structure is not made public by the API.
} virConf;

Typedef virConfPtr

virConf * virConfPtr;

a pointer to a parsed configuration file

Enum virConfType

enum virConfType {
    VIR_CONF_NONE = 0 /* undefined */
    VIR_CONF_LONG = 1 /* a long int */
    VIR_CONF_STRING = 2 /* a string */
    VIR_CONF_LIST = 3 /*  a list */
};

Structure virConfValue

struct _virConfValue {
    virConfType	type	: the virConfType
    virConfValuePtr	next	: next element if in a list
    long	l	: long integer
    char *	str	: pointer to 0 terminated string
    virConfValuePtr	list	: list of a list
} virConfValue;

Typedef virConfValuePtr

virConfValue * virConfValuePtr;

virConfFree ()

int	virConfFree			(virConfPtr conf)

Frees all data associated to the handle

virConfGetValue ()

virConfValuePtr	virConfGetValue		(virConfPtr conf, 
					 const char * setting)

Lookup the value associated to this entry in the configuration file

virConfReadFile ()

virConfPtr	virConfReadFile		(const char * filename)

Reads a configuration file.

virConfReadMem ()

virConfPtr	virConfReadMem		(const char * memory, 
					 int len)

Reads a configuration file loaded in memory. The string can be zero terminated in which case @len can be 0

virConfWriteFile ()

int	virConfWriteFile		(const char * filename, 
					 virConfPtr conf)

Writes a configuration file back to a file.

virConfWriteMem ()

int	virConfWriteMem			(char * memory, 
					 int * len, 
					 virConfPtr conf)

Writes a configuration file back to a memory area. @len is an IN/OUT parameter, it indicates the size available in bytes, and on output the size required for the configuration file (even if the call fails due to insufficient space).
