smi_event(3)						SMI Management Information Library					      smi_event(3)

NAME
smiGetEvent, smiGetFirstEvent, smiGetNextEvent - SMI identity information routines SYNOPSIS
#include <smi.h> smiGetEvent(SmiClass *smiClassPtr,char*"name); smiGetFirstEvent(SmiClass *smiClassPtr); smiGetNextEvent(SmiEvent *smiEventPtr); typedef struct SmiEvent { SmiIdentifier name; SmiDecl decl; SmiStatus status; char *description; char *reference; } SmiEvent; DESCRIPTION
These functions retrieve information on a SMIng event definition (SMIng). smiGetEvent(SmiClass *smiClassPtr, char *name) returns a pointer to struct SmiEvent for the event with the given name in the given class(smiClassPtr), or NULL if the event with the given name does not exist smiGetFirstEvent(SmiClass *smiClassPtr) and smiGetNextEvent(SmiEvent *smiEventPtr) are used to iterate through the events of the class given by smiClassPtr. They return a pointer to struct SmiEvent that represents an event or NULL if there are no events left in the class, or error has occurred. FILES
