Function Documentation

int rpmdbAppendIterator ( rpmdbMatchIterator  mi,
const int *  hdrNums,
int  nHdrNums 
)

Append items to set of package instances to iterate.

Parameters:
mirpm database iterator
hdrNumsarray of package instances
nHdrNumsnumber of elements in array
Returns:
0 on success, 1 on failure (bad args)
int rpmdbCheckSignals ( void  )

Check for and exit on termination signals.

int rpmdbCheckTerminate ( int  terminate)

Check rpmdb signal handler for trapped signal and/or requested exit, clean up any open iterators and databases on termination condition.

On non-zero exit any open references to rpmdb are invalid and cannot be accessed anymore, calling process should terminate immediately.

Parameters:
terminate0 to only check for signals, 1 to terminate anyway
Returns:
0 to continue, 1 if termination cleanup was done.

Parameters:
dbrpm database
namerpm package name
Returns:
number of instances

int rpmdbIndexIteratorNext ( rpmdbIndexIterator  ii,
const void **  key,
size_t *  keylen 
)

Get the next key - Warning! Keys are not zero terminated! Binary tags may even contain zero bytes.

Parameters:
