Macros
#define GLOBUS_COMMON_MODULE (&globus_i_common_module)
Globus Common Module Descriptor.
#define GLOBUS_TILDE_EXPAND
Expand ~.
#define GLOBUS_TILDE_USER_EXPAND
Expand ~user.
#define GLOBUS_TRUE 1
True value for globus_bool_t.
#define GLOBUS_FALSE 0
False value for globus_bool_t.
#define GLOBUS_SUCCESS 0
Generic success result
Most Globus API functions return this value to indicate success, or some error constant or globus_result_t to indicate an error. "
#define GLOBUS_FAILURE -1
Generic failure result
Some Globus API functions without good error handling return this value to indicate some undetermined error occurred. "
Typedefs
typedef size_t globus_size_t
Standard size of memory object
The globus_size_t is the size of a memory object. It is identical to size_t in all cases and doesn't need to be used ever. "
typedef socklen_t globus_socklen_t
Size of a socket length parameter.
typedef unsigned char globus_byte_t
Unsigned byte datatype
This is used for byte-addressable arrays of arbitrary data which is not subject to sign extension. "
typedef int globus_bool_t
Boolean type.
typedef uint32_t globus_result_t
Functions
globus_result_t globus_eval_path (const char *pathstring, char **bufp)
int globus_tilde_expand (unsigned long options, globus_bool_t url_form, char *inpath, char **outpath)
Expand ~ and/or ~user in path strings.

Typedef Documentation
typedef int globus_bool_t
Boolean type. Set values to either the constant GLOBUS_TRUE and GLOBUS_FALSE
typedef uint32_t globus_result_t
Weak pointer to a Globus Error object, or the special value GLOBUS_SUCCESStypedef socklen_t globus_socklen_t
Size of a socket length parameter. The globus_socklen_t type is part of the POSIX socket interface and is also available in winsock2.h. In older UNIX implementations, this was variously a size_t or an int.
Function Documentation
globus_result_t globus_eval_path (const char *pathstring, char **bufp)
Parameters:
-
pathstring A string containing any number of variable path references using the syntax ${PATH-NAME} Supported path elements are
- •
- prefix
- •
- exec_prefix
- •
- sbindir
- •
- bindir
- •
- libdir
- •
- libexecdir
- •
- includedir
- •
- datarootdir
- •
- datadir
- •
- mandir
- •
- sysconfdir
- •
- sharedstatedir
- •
- localstatedir
- •
- perlmoduledir These strings are based on the parameters passed to this package configure script, but modified so that if GLOBUS_LOCATION is set in the environment, it is used instead of the configured path.
bufp Pointer to be set to a newly allocated string that has recursively resolved all substitution paths.
int globus_tilde_expand (unsigned longoptions, globus_bool_turl_form, char *inpath, char **outpath)
Expand ~ and/or ~user in path strings. Expand the leading ~ (or ~user) characters from inpath to the home directory path of the current user (or user specified in ~user); the result is stored in a newly allocated buffer *outpath (which will need to be freed by a call to globus_free.) The string following the ~/or ~user/ is copied verbatim to the output string.
Parameters:
-
options The expansion is conditioned by the options as defined in globus_tilde_expand.h:
- •
- GLOBUS_TILDE_EXPAND: expand ~
- •
- GLOBUS_TILDE_USER_EXPAND: expand ~user Otherwise, the corresponding form is not expanded (just copied int the output path)
url_form True if the inpath follows an URL format (/~) Used when expanding an url (for : <scheme>://host[:port][/path] were /path can be of the form /~[user][/...]. Otherwise, the form ~[user][/...] is expected.
inpath Input string to expand.
outpath Output string; Need to be freed when not used anymore.
