confdb_dispatch - Dispatches callbacks from the CONFDB service
SYNOPSIS
#include <corosync/confdb.h>
int confdb_dispatch(confdb_handle_t handle, confdb_dispatch_t *dis‐
patch_types);
DESCRIPTION
The confdb_dispatch function is used to dispatch configuration changes.
Each application may have several connections to the CONFDB API. Each
application uses the handle argument to uniquely identify the connec‐
tion.
The dispatch_types argument is used to identify the type of dispatch to
execute. The possible types are defined by the structure:
typedef enum {
CONFDB_DISPATCH_ONE,
CONFDB_DISPATCH_ALL,
CONFDB_DISPATCH_BLOCKING
} confdb_dispatch_t;
The dispatch values have the following meanings:
CONFDB_DISPATCH_ONE
Dispatch at least one callback, blocking until the callback is
dispatched.
CONFDB_DISPATCH_ALL
Dispatch all waiting callbacks without blocking to wait for any
callbacks.
CONFDB_DISPATCH_BLOCKING
Dispatch all callbacks blocking indefinitely. This is used in a
threaded program where a thread is created, and then confdb_dis‐
patch() is called immediately from the created thread to execute
callbacks.
RETURN VALUE
This call returns the CONFDB_OK value if successful, otherwise an error
is returned.
ERRORS
The errors are undocumented.
