QB_IPCC_CONNECT(3)         libqb Programmer's Manual        QB_IPCC_CONNECT(3)

NAME
       qb_ipcc_connect - Create a connection to an IPC service.


SYNOPSIS
       #include <qb/qbipcc.h>

       qb_ipcc_connection_t * qb_ipcc_connect(
           const char   *name,
           size_t        max_msg_size
       );

PARAMS
       name         name of the service.

       max_msg_size biggest msg size.

DESCRIPTION
RETURN VALUE
       NULL (error: see errno) or a connection object.

NOTE
       It is recommended to do a one time check on the max_msg_size value
       using qb_ipcc_verify_dgram_max_msg_size BEFORE calling the connect
       function when IPC_SOCKET is in use. Some distributions while allow
       large message buffers to be set on the socket, but not actually honor
       them because of kernel state values. The
       qb_ipcc_verify_dgram_max_msg_size function both sets the socket buffer
       size and verifies it by doing a send/recv.
