proc_content2str,
proc_str2content — convert a
string to and from a core_content_t
Process Control Library (libproc, -lproc)
#include
<libproc.h>
int
proc_content2str(core_content_t
content, char *buf, size_t
size);
int
proc_str2content(const char
*str, core_content_t *cp);
The
proc_content2str()
function converts the contents of a process (whether active or a core file)
from content into a string and writes up to
size characters, including the null-terminator, into
buf.
A content string will be a series of one or more tokens concatenated together with the + or - characters, indicating that the subsequent token should be added or subtracted from the previous ones. The full list of tokens and constants is available in the core_content_t portion of the TYPES section in libproc(3LIB).
The
proc_str2content()
function takes the character string str and based on
the format described in the previous paragraph, converts it back into a
core_content_t which is placed into
cp.
Upon successful completion, the
proc_content2str() function will return the number
of characters written into buf, excluding the
terminating null character.
Upon successful completion, the
proc_str2content() function will return
0. Otherwise,
-1 will be
returned to indicate an unknown string.
