NAME    [Toc]    [Back]

       rapi_getfd  -  Get  the  file  descriptor for the Resource
       ReSerVation Protocol (RSVP) daemon's socket

SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

       #include <rapi.h>

       int rapi_getfd(
               rapi_sid_t Sid );

LIBRARY    [Toc]    [Back]

       RAPI Library (librsvp.so, librsvp.a)

PARAMETERS    [Toc]    [Back]

       Specifies the session handle that was returned by  a  successful
 call to the rapi_session() routine.

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

       The rapi_getfd() routine obtains the file descriptor associated
 with the UNIX socket connected to the RSVP  daemon,
       rsvpd. An application typically calls this routine after a
       call to the rapi_session() routine has completed  successfully
  and  before  a  call to the rapi_release() routine.
       When a socket read event is signaled on this file descriptor,
  the application should call the rapi_dispatch() routine.


       A call to the rapi_getfd() routine for different RAPI sessions
 might return the same file descriptor.

RETURN VALUES    [Toc]    [Back]

       Upon   successful  completion,  the  rapi_getfd()  routine
       returns the file descriptor.  If  the  session  handle  is
       illegal or undefined, the routine returns a value of -1.
