picl_find_node(3PICL)					      PICL Library Functions					     picl_find_node(3PICL)

NAME

       picl_find_node - find node with given property and value

SYNOPSIS

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

       int picl_find_node(picl_nodehdl_trooth, char *pname,
	    picl_prop_type_t ptype, void *pval, size_t valsize,
	    picl_nodehdl_t *retnodeh);

DESCRIPTION

       The  picl_find_node() function visits the nodes in the subtree under the node specified by rooth. The handle of the node that has the prop-
       erty whose name, type, and value matches the name, type, and value specified in pname, ptype, and pval respectively,  is  returned  in  the
       location given by retnodeh. The valsize argument specifies the size of the value in pval. The first valsize number of bytes of the property
       value is compared with pval.

RETURN VALUES

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

       The value PICL_NODENOTFOUND is returned if no node that matches the property criteria can be found.

ERRORS

       PICL_FAILURE	     General system failure

       PICL_INVALIDHANDLE    Invalid handle

       PICL_NODENOTFOUND     Node not found

       PICL_NOTNODE	     Not a node

       PICL_STALEHANDLE      Stale handle

picl_get_propinfo(3PICL)				      PICL Library Functions					  picl_get_propinfo(3PICL)

NAME

       picl_get_propinfo - get the information about a property

SYNOPSIS

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

       int picl_get_propinfo(picl_prophdl_t proph,
	    picl_propinfo_t *pinfo);

DESCRIPTION

       The  picl_get_propinfo()  function gets the information about the property specified by handle proph and copies it into the location speci-
       fied by pinfo.  The property information includes the property type, access mode, size, and the	name  of  the  property  as  described	on
       libpicl(3PICL) manual page.

       The maximum size of a property value is specified by PICL_PROPSIZE_MAX.	It is currently set to 512KB.

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       PICL_STALEHANDLE is returned if the handle is no longer valid.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.  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_NOTPROP	      Not a property

       PICL_INVALIDHANDLE     Invalid handle specified

       PICL_STALEHANDLE       Stale handle specifie

       PICL_FAILURE	      General system failure
