AG_CORE(3) Library Functions Manual AG_CORE(3) NAME AG_Core -- agar core library initialization SYNOPSIS #include <agar/core.h> DESCRIPTION The Agar-Core library implements the AG_Object(3) system and provides interfaces to common operating system services (filesystems, network APIs, threads, etc). Agar-GUI is built on top of AG_Core, but Agar- Core itself contains no GUI-related code and may be installed indepen- dently. For a complete listing of available subsystems and interfaces, see the "AGAR-CORE" section of AG_Intro(3). INITIALIZATION int AG_InitCore(const char *progname, Uint flags) void AG_AtExitFunc(void (*fn)(void)) void AG_Quit(void) void AG_Destroy(void) The AG_InitCore() function initializes the AG_Core library. progname is an optional identifier for the program. This name may be used to construct platform-specific directory paths. Unless the AG_CREATE_DATADIR flags option is set, the progname argument can be NULL. Available flags options include: AG_VERBOSE Allow errors/warnings on the standard error output. AG_CREATE_DATADIR Check that the application data directory exists, create it if necessary (or fail if it cannot be created). It contains the state of objects saved by AG_ObjectSave(3). The default is $HOME/.progname/ on Unix and platform-dependent elsewhere. AG_SOFT_TIMERS Don't use OS-provided timer mechanisms (such as BSD kqueue(2), Linux timerfd or select(2)). Timers will be handled either by explicitely updating a software-based timing wheel (see AG_ProcessTimeouts(3)), or some other mechanism. AG_POSIX_USERS If both AG_User(3) modules "getenv" and "posix" are available, prefer "posix". This is not the default because "posix" incurs potential startup overhead while initially accessing the password database (and $HOME is all Agar needs for its own purposes). The AG_AtExitFunc() registers a function that will be invoked automati- cally by AG_Destroy(). AG_Quit() terminates the application by releasing resources allocated by AG_Core and invoking exit(2). The AG_Destroy() function releases all resources allocated by the AG_Core library. AGAR VERSION INFORMATION void AG_GetVersion(AG_AgarVersion *ver) bool AG_VERSION_ATLEAST(int major, int minor, int patchlevel) The AG_GetVersion() function fills an AG_AgarVersion structure with version information: typedef struct ag_agar_version { int major; int minor; int patch; const char *release; } AG_AgarVersion; Agar does not need to have been previously initialized for AG_GetVersion() to work. The AG_VERSION_ATLEAST() macro evaluates to true if the current Agar version is equal to, or exceeds the given version number. EXAMPLES The following program initializes Agar-Core and prints the Agar version and release information: int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { AG_AgarVersion *ver; if (AG_InitCore("myProgram", 0) == -1) { AG_Verbose("AG_InitCore: %s\n", AG_GetError()); return (1); } AG_GetVersion(&ver); AG_Verbose("Hello Agar %d.%d.%d (\"%s\")\n", ver.major, ver.minor, ver.patch, ver.release); AG_Destroy() return (0); } SEE ALSO AG_Config(3), AG_DataSource(3), AG_Db(3), AG_DSO(3), AG_Error(3), AG_Event(3), AG_EventLoop(3), AG_Execute(3), AG_File(3), AG_Intro(3), AG_Limits(3), AG_Net(3), AG_Object(3), AG_String(3), AG_TextElement(3), AG_Threads(3), AG_Time(3), AG_Timer(3), AG_User(3), AG_Variable(3), AG_Version(3) HISTORY The AG_InitCore() function first appeared in Agar 1.0.
