Description

This section contains a few helper functions that are used in the infinoted implementation and are exposed to the plugin interface for convenience of plugin developers.

Functions

infinoted_util_create_dirname ()

gboolean
infinoted_util_create_dirname (const gchar *path,
                               GError **error);

Creates directories leading to the given path. Does not create a directory for the last component of the path, assuming that it is a filename that you are going to write into that directory later.

Parameters

path

The filename to create a path to.

  

error

Location to store error information, if any.

  

Returns

TRUE on success, or FALSE on error in which case error is set.

infinoted_util_set_errno_error ()

void
infinoted_util_set_errno_error (GError **error,
                                int save_errno,
                                const char *prefix);

Sets error to save_errno with domain ERRNO_ERROR. If prefix is non-NULL, prefix is prefixed to error 's message, obtained by strerror().

Parameters

error

A pointer to a GError pointer, or NULL.

  

save_errno

An errno variable.

  

prefix

A prefix string, or NULL.

  

infinoted_util_daemon_set_global_pid_file_proc ()

void
infinoted_util_daemon_set_global_pid_file_proc
                               (void);

When attempting to read or write the PID file use the global file.

infinoted_util_daemon_set_local_pid_file_proc ()

void
infinoted_util_daemon_set_local_pid_file_proc
                               (void);

When attempting to read or write the PID file use the local file which is in the owner's home directory.

infinoted_util_daemon_pid_file_kill ()

int
infinoted_util_daemon_pid_file_kill (int sig);

This is a thin wrapper for daemon_pid_file_kill() which uses daemon_pid_file_kill_wait() if available with a timeout of 5 seconds.

Parameters

sig

The signal to send to the daemon process.

  

Returns

0 if the signal was sent or nonzero otherwise.
