tt_spec_write(library call)											       tt_spec_write(library call)

NAME

       tt_spec_write -- write the spec and any associated properties to the ToolTalk database

SYNOPSIS

       #include <Tt/tt_c.h>
       Tt_status tt_spec_write(
       const char *objid);

DESCRIPTION

       The tt_spec_write function writes the spec and any associated properties to the ToolTalk database.  The type must be set before the spec is
       written for the first time.

       The objid argument is the identifier of the object involved in this operation.

RETURN VALUE

       Upon successful completion, the tt_spec_write function returns the status of the operation as one of the following Tt_status values:

       TT_OK	 The operation completed successfully.

       TT_ERR_DBAVAIL
		 The ToolTalk service could not access the ToolTalk database needed for this operation.

       TT_ERR_DBEXIST
		 The ToolTalk service could not access the specified ToolTalk database in the expected place.

       TT_ERR_NOMP
		 The ttsession(1) process is not running and the ToolTalk service cannot restart it.

       TT_ERR_OBJID
		 The objid passed to the ToolTalk service does not reference an existing object spec.

       TT_ERR_OTYPE
		 The specified object type is not the name of an installed object type.

APPLICATION USAGE

       It is not necessary to perform a write operation after a destroy operation.

       Several changes can be batched between write calls; for example, the application can create an object spec, set some properties,  and  then
       write all the changes at once with one write call.

NAME

       tt_spec_prop_set -- replace property values

SYNOPSIS

       #include <Tt/tt_c.h>
       Tt_status tt_spec_prop_set(
       const char *objid,
       const char *propname,
       const char *value);

DESCRIPTION

       The tt_spec_prop_set function replaces any values currently stored under this property of the object spec with a new value.

       The  objid  argument  is  the identifier of the object involved in this operation.  The propname argument is the name of the property which
       stores the values.  The value argument is the value to be placed in the property value list.  If value is NULL,	the  property  is  removed
       entirely.

RETURN VALUE

       Upon successful completion, the tt_spec_prop_set function returns the status of the operation as one of the following Tt_status values:

       TT_OK	 The operation completed successfully.

       TT_ERR_DBAVAIL
		 The ToolTalk service could not access the ToolTalk database needed for this operation.

       TT_ERR_DBEXIST
		 The ToolTalk service could not access the specified ToolTalk database in the expected place.

       TT_ERR_NOMP
		 The ttsession(1) process is not running and the ToolTalk service cannot restart it.

       TT_ERR_OBJID
		 The objid passed to the ToolTalk service does not reference an existing object spec.

       TT_ERR_PROPLEN
		 The specified property value is too long.  (The maximum size is implementation specific, but is at least 2048.)

       TT_ERR_PROPNAME
		 The specified property name is syntactically invalid.
