Function Documentation

void globus_rls_client_certificate (char * certfile, char * keyfile)

Set certificate used in authentication. Sets environment variables X509_USER_CERT, X509_USER_KEY, and clears X509_USER_PROXY.

Parameters:

certfile Name of X509 certificate file.
keyfile Name of X509 key file.

void globus_rls_client_proxy_certificate (char * proxy)

Set X509_USER_PROXY environment variable to specified file. Parameters:

proxy Name of X509 proxy certificate file. If NULL clears X509_USER_PROXY.

globus_result_t globus_rls_client_connect (char * url, globus_rls_handle_t ** h)

Open connection to RLS server. Parameters:

url URL of server to connect to. URL scheme should be RLS or RLSN, eg RLS://my.host. If the URL scheme is RLSN then no authentication is performed (the RLS server must be started with authentication disabled as well, this option is primarily intended for testing).
h If the connection is successful *h will be set to the connection handle. This handle is required by all other functions in the API.

Return values:

GLOBUS_SUCCESS Handle h now connected to RLS server identified by url.

globus_result_t globus_rls_client_close (globus_rls_handle_t * h)

Close connection to RLS server. Parameters:

h Connection handle to be closed, previously allocated by globus_rls_client_connect().

Return values:

GLOBUS_SUCCESS Connection closed, h is no longer valid.

int globus_rls_client_get_timeout ()

Get timeout for IO calls to RLS server. If 0 IO calls do not timeout. The default is 30 seconds.

Return values:

timeout Seconds to wait before timing out an IO operation.

void globus_rls_client_set_timeout (int seconds)

Set timeout for IO calls to RLS server. Parameters:

seconds Seconds to wait before timing out an IO operation. If 0 IO calls do not timeout. The default is 30 seconds.
