KPLOT_ATTACH_DATAS(3)	     Library Functions Manual	   KPLOT_ATTACH_DATAS(3)

NAME
     kplot_attach_datas -- assign multi-plot data to plotting context

LIBRARY
     libkplot

SYNOPSIS
     #include <cairo.h>
     #include <kplot.h>

     int
     kplot_attach_datas(const struct kplot *p, size_t sz, struct kdata **d,
	 const enum kplottype *t, const struct kdatacfg *const *cfg,
	 enum kplotstype st);

DESCRIPTION
     The  kplot_attach_datas  function	assigns a "multi-data" source set d to a
     plotting context p, reference-counting the data  sources  in  the	process.
     See  kplot_attach_data(3) for a more general description of attaching data.
     Multi-data source sets consist of a baseline and one or  more  pair  lines,
     for  example,  a  curve  and  its error bars.  The most common usage is for
     graphing mean (the baseline) and standard deviation above and  below  (pair
     lines)  via  kdata_mean_alloc(3)  and  kdata_stddev_alloc(3).  The order in
     which you arrange the array parameters d, t, and cfg: the first is for  the
     baseline, subsequent are for pair lines as defined by st.	The cfg argument
     can be NULL (as can individual array entries); all other parameters and in-
     dexes must not be NULL.  The plot types are as follows:

     KPLOTS_YERRORLINE
	     Draw a baseline (or points) using the first element in d.	The next
	     element  is  used	to draw error lines (or points) above (adding to
	     the y-position) and below (subtracting) the  baseline.   Subsequent
	     lines  are  ignored.  Data sources are matched by bucket index, not
	     x-axis value, which is ignored for all pair data sources.

     KPLOTS_YERRORBAR
	     Draw a baseline (or points) using the first element in d.	The next
	     element is used to draw error lines (or point) above (adding to the
	     y-position) and below (subtracting) the baseline.	A  bar	is  then
	     drawn between these points using the line configuration of this el-
	     ement.   Subsequent lines are ignored.  Data sources are matched by
	     bucket index, not x-axis value, which is ignored for all pair  data
	     sources.

RETURN VALUES
     kplot_attach_datas returns 0 if allocation of internal structures fails due
     to  memory  exhaustion,  or not enough data sources have been provided.  In
     this case, all allocations and references will be dropped.
