ZCOM C I/F Library Routines

ZCOMLOG (3X)

NAME

zcomlog – Add a message to the ZCOM log file

SYNOPSIS

#include <zcom/zcomsys.h>

#include <zcom/zcomcall.h> /* if compiled with ANSI C (recommended) */

void zcomlog (error, msgno, narg [, desc, arg])

uint32 error;

int32 msgno;

uint8 narg;

uint32 desc;

uint32 arg;

DESCRIPTION

Routine zcomlog creates a log record and passes it to the ZCOM message

log system, where the logged m essages will be retrieved and processed by

the ZMLOG program. Before calling this routine, zcomlname(3X) should

be called to set up the logging program name for all subsequent log

records.

The log record created consists of t h e program name as specified in the

preceding zcomlname call, the message number msgno and the

associated arguments arg. This routine has a va riable number of

arguments: the call argument pair “desc, a rg ” repeats for the number of

times specified by narg.

The libraries libzcom_c.a and libpthread.a must be linked into the calling

program by giving the options “-lzcom_c -lpthread” to cc(1) or ld(1).
