CONFDB_OBJECT_CREACorosync Cluster Engine Programmer's CONFDB_OBJECT_CREATE(3)NAMEconfdb_object_create - Create a new object in the Configuration Data‐
base
SYNOPSIS
#include <corosync/confdb.h>
confdb_error_t confdb_object_create(confdb_handle_t handle, unsigned
int parent_object_handle, void *object_name , int object_name_len ,
unsignedint *object_handle );
DESCRIPTION
The confdb_object_create function create a new object in the configura‐
tion database. Objects may contain other sub-objects or keys with val‐
ues. On success the handle of the new object is returned in
object_handle. This value should be used to refer to the object in
future, eg when retrieving sub-keys or if the object is destroyed.
parent_object_handle is the handle of the object that is the parent of
the new object. This can be OBJECT_PARENT_HANDLE if the new object is
to be a child of the top-level object. Object names are not required
to be unique in the database. If you call confdb_object_create twice
with the same parameters you will create two different objects with the
same name but distinct object handles. You can iterate through simi‐
larly name objects using the confdb_object_find call.
RETURN VALUE
This call returns the CONFDB_OK value if successful, otherwise an error
is returned.
ERRORS
The errors are undocumented.
