EvmEventFormat(3)					     Library Functions Manual						 EvmEventFormat(3)

NAME

       EvmEventFormat(), EvmEventFormatFromTemplate(), EvmVarFormat() - format events for display

SYNOPSIS

   Library
       EVM Support Library

   Parameters
       buffer	     A	pointer  to  a	character string to receive the formatted event data.  The stored string is null-terminated, even if trun-
		     cated, unless the length operand is zero(0).

       length	     The maximum length (number of characters) of the output string.  If the formatted event is longer than length, the output	is
		     truncated.

       event	     The event to be formatted.

       show_template The primary template for formatting the output.

       var_name      The name of a variable data item of the event whose value is to be formatted.

       translate     A	Boolean  value	indicating  whether  I18N  (internationalization) translation is to be attempted on the variable data item
		     (var_name).  If the translate operand is translation is attempted.  In addition, the following conditions must be met:

		      o   The variable is of type string and includes an I18N (internationalization) message identifier

		      o   The event contains I18N (internationalization) catalog information.

DESCRIPTION

       Information contained in an event must be formatted into a readable format.  The software which posts the  event  (event  poster)  supplies
       formatting information through the event's format data item.  The routines described here explain the event formatting capabilities.

       The  routine  combines the supplied event's format data item with any data items or variables specified in the event's format item that are
       available in the event.	returns a formatted version of the event in buffer.

       If the event contains I18N message catalog information, and the catalog is available in the user's locale, the format string  is  retrieved
       from the message catalog if possible.  If no translation is possible, the format string from the event is used.

       If the event does not contain format information, produces a generic display of the event's name and any variables.

       The  routine  also formats the supplied event.  uses the supplied show_template string as its primary formatting template.  Literal charac-
       ters in show_template are transferred to the buffer unchanged.

       Any token of the form or is replaced by the value of the corresponding data item from the supplied event, if it is present.   item_name	is
       the  name  of  the item stored in the event.  If width is supplied, the value occupies a minimum of width character positions.  width is an
       integer number specifying the size of the value stored in item_name.  The item_name is the name of a standard event data item.  The special
       string is replaced by the results of applying to the event.

       Refer to evmshow(1) and EvmEvent(5) for more information about formatting events for display.

       retrieves a variable called var_name from the supplied event, and returns a formatted version of its value in buffer.

       If translate is I18N translation is applied as appropriate.

   Notes
       Floating point values are formatted using the format specifier.

RETURN VALUE

       One of the arguments to the function is invalid.

       A value in a structure member is invalid.
