NAME
EvmEventValidate - Performs a data integrity check on an event. LIBRARY
EVM Support Library (libevm.so, libevm.a) SYNOPSIS
#include <evm/evm.h> EvmStatus_t EvmEventValidate( EvmEvent_t event); OPERANDS
The event to be validated. DESCRIPTION
The EvmEventValidate() routine performs a data integrity check on an event. This is intended to validate an event that has just been received over a connection or retrieved from storage. It should not be used on an event that has been modified by the caller. There will be times following an event's creation when it legitimately fails validation. RETURN VALUES
The operation was completed without error. One of the arguments to the function was invalid. A value in a structure member is invalid. An operation failed because an attempt to acquire heap memory failed. ERRORS
None FILES

EvmEventCreate(3)					     Library Functions Manual						 EvmEventCreate(3)

NAME
EvmEventCreate, EvmEventCreateVa, EvmEventDup, EvmEventDestroy - Creates and destroys events LIBRARY
EVM Support Library (libevm.so, libevm.a) SYNOPSIS
#include <evm/evm.h> EvmStatus_t EvmEventCreate( EvmEvent_t *event); EvmStatus_t EvmEventCreateVa( EvmEvent_t *event, [EvmItemId_t item_id, const EvmItemValue_t item_value,] ... EvmITEM_NONE); EvmStatus_t EvmEventDup( EvmEvent_t *dupev, EvmEvent_t event); EvmStatus_t EvmEventDestroy( EvmEvent_t event); OPERANDS
The event to be created, copied, or destroyed. The identifier for the Event Data Item to be set. See the EvmItemSet(3) reference page for possible values for this parameter, and the data contained by the data item. The value to be stored in the associated item indicated by item_id. The return location where the duplicate (new) event is stored. DESCRIPTION
The EvmEventCreate() routine creates an empty event. The newly created event is returned in the event reference argument. The EvmEventCreateVa() routine creates an event and adds the supplied items in a single call. The item list is terminated by an instance of the item_id parameter set to EvmITEM_NONE. The newly created event is returned in the event reference argument. The EvmEventDup() routine creates a copy of the supplied event and returns the new event in the dupev reference argument. The EvmEventDestroy() routine destroys a previously created event, freeing its memory. This function must be used if it is necessary to destroy an event, to ensure that all associated memory is freed. RESTRICTIONS
To avoid memory leakage, all structures that are supplied to the caller from API routines must be freed with the appropriate EVM API free routine. RETURN VALUES
The operation was completed without error. One of the arguments to the function was invalid. A value in a structure member is invalid. An operation failed because an attempt to acquire heap memory failed. ERRORS
None FILES
