picl_set_propval(3PICL) 				      PICL Library Functions					   picl_set_propval(3PICL)

NAME

       picl_set_propval, picl_set_propval_by_name - set the value of a property to the specified value

SYNOPSIS

       cc [ flag... ] file... -lpicl [ library... ]
       #include <picl.h>

       int picl_set_propval(picl_prophdl_t proph, void *valbuf,
	    size_t nbytes);

       int picl_set_propval_by_name(picl_nodehdl_t nodeh,
	    const char *pname, void *valbuf, size_t nbytes);

DESCRIPTION

       The  picl_set_propval()	function sets the value of the property specified by the handle proph to the value contained in the buffer valbuf.
       The argument nbytes specifies the size of the buffer valbuf.

       The picl_set_propval_by_name() function sets the value of the property named pname of the node specified by the handle nodeh to	the  value
       contained in the buffer valbuf. The argument nbytes specifies the size of the buffer valbuf.

RETURN VALUES

       Upon successful completion, 0 is returned. On failure, a non-negative integer is returned to indicate an error.

       PICL_PERMDENIED is returned if the client does not have sufficient permission to access the property.

       PICL_STALEHANDLE is returned if the handle is no longer valid. This occurs if the PICL tree was refreshed or reinitialized.

       PICL_INVALIDHANDLE is returned if the specified handle never existed.  This error may be returned for a previously valid handle if the dae-
       mon was brought down and restarted. When this occurs a client must revalidate any saved handles.

ERRORS

       PICL_NOTINITIALIZED    Session not initialized

       PICL_NORESPONSE	      Daemon not responding

       PICL_PERMDENIED	      Insufficient permission

       PICL_NOTWRITABLE       Property is read-only

       PICL_VALUETOOBIG       Value too big

       PICL_NOTPROP	      Not a property

       PICL_NOTNODE	      Not a node

       PICL_INVALIDHANDLE     Invalid handle specified

       PICL_STALEHANDLE       Stale handle specified

       PICL_FAILURE	      General system failure

NAME

       ptree_get_propval, ptree_get_propval_by_name - get the value of a property

SYNOPSIS

       cc [ flag... ] file... -lpicltree [ library... ]
       #include <picltree.h>

       int ptree_get_propval(picl_prophdl_t proph, void *valbuf, size_t nbytes);

       int ptree_get_propval_by_name(picl_nodehdl_t nodeh, void *name, void *valbuf, size_t nbytes);

DESCRIPTION

       The  ptree_get_propval()  function  gets the value of the property specified by the handle proph and copies it into the buffer specified by
       valbuf.	The size of the buffer valbuf is specifed in nbytes.

       The ptree_get_propval_by_name() function gets the value of the property, whose name is specified by name, from the node specified by handle
       nodeh.  The value is copied into the buffer specified by valbuf. The size of the buffer is specified by nbytes.

       For volatile properties, the read access function provided by the plug-in publishing the property is invoked.

RETURN VALUES

       Upon successful completion, 0 is returned. On failure, a non-negative integer is returned to indicate an error.

       PICL_STALEHANDLE is returned if the handle is no longer valid. This occurs if the PICL tree was refreshed or reinitialized.

       PICL_INVALIDHANDLE is returned if the specified handle never existed.

ERRORS

       PICL_VALUETOOBIG        Value too big

       PICL_NOTPROP	       Not a property

       PICL_NOTNODE	       Not a node

       PICL_INVALIDHANDLE      Invalid handle

       PICL_STALEHANDLE        Stale handle

       PICL_PROPNOTFOUND       Property not found

       PICL_FAILURE	       General system failure
