Function Documentation

◆ ngcbPipeClose()

void ngcbPipeClose ( ngcb_pipe_t * p )

Close the pipe and terminates the executed process.

◆ ngcbPipeError()

void ngcbPipeError	(	char *	erms,
		int	n,
		ngcb_pipe_t *	p )

Read the stderr output of the executed process up to a length of n-1 characters. The returned error message is then terminated with a null character.

◆ ngcbPipeIn()

int ngcbPipeIn	(	const char *	cmd,
		char *	msg,
		int	n )

Read up to n-1 characters from stdout of cmd, put them to msg and add a terminating NULL character. If an error occurs, stderr is read in the same way and copied to msg. In case of error the function returns (-1), otherwise zero is returned.

◆ ngcbPipeInit()

void ngcbPipeInit ( ngcb_pipe_t * p )

Initialize/reset pipe structure.

◆ ngcbPipeOpen()

int ngcbPipeOpen	(	const char *	cmd,
		ngcb_pipe_t *	p,
		char *	erms )

Execute command as a child process and create a pipe between caller and executed process.
