Function Documentation

   globus_result_t globus_xio_attr_init (globus_xio_attr_t *attr)
       Intialize a globus xio attribute.

       Parameters:
           attr upon return from this function this out parameter will be initialized. Once the
           user is finished with the attribute they should make sure they destroy it in order to
           free resources associated with it.

       References globus_xio_attr_init().

   globus_result_t globus_xio_attr_cntl (globus_xio_attr_tattr, globus_xio_driver_tdriver,
       intcmd, ...)
       Manipulate the values associated in the attr. This function provides a means to access the
       attr structure. What exactly this function does is determined by the value in the
       parameter cmd and the value of the patameter driver. When the driver parameter is NULL it
       indicates that this function applies to general globus xio values. If it is not NULL it
       indicates that the function will effect driver specific values. Each driver is resonsible
       for defining its own enumeration of values for cmd and the var args associated with that
       command.

       Parameters:
           attr the attribute structure to be manipulated.
           driver This parameter indicates which driver the user would like to perform the
           requested operation. If this parameter is NULL this request will be scoped to general
           attribure functions.
           cmd an enum that determines what specific operation the user is requesting. Each
           driver will determine the value for this enumeration.

       References globus_xio_attr_cntl().

   globus_result_t globus_xio_attr_copy (globus_xio_attr_t *dst, globus_xio_attr_tsrc)

       References globus_xio_attr_copy().

   globus_result_t globus_xio_attr_destroy (globus_xio_attr_tattr)
       Clean up resources associated with an attribute.

       Parameters:
           attr Upon completion of this function all resources associated with this structure
           will returned to the system and the attr will no longer be valid.

       then be used to accept connections.

       Parameters:
           server An out parameter. Once the function successfully returns this will point to a
           valid server object.

           it will be parsed as the path

       the following are examples of valid formats:

          <path to file>
          host-name ':' <service or port>
          'file:' <path to file>
          <scheme> '://' [ '/' [ <path to resource> ]  ]
          <scheme> '://' location [ '/' [ <path to resource> ] ]
            location:
                [ auth-part ] host-part
            auth-part:
                <user> [ ':' <password> ] '@'
            host-part:
                [ '<' <subject> '>' ] host-name [ ':' <port or service> ]
            host-name:
                <hostname> | <dotted quad> | '[' <ipv6 address> ']'

       Except for use as the above delimeters, the following special characters MUST be encoded
       with the %HH format where H == hex char.

          '/' and '@' in location except subject
          '<' and '>' in location
          ':' everywhere except ipv6 address and subject
          '%' everywhere (can be encoded with %HH or %%)

       Close a handle

       This functions servers as a destoy for the handle. As soon as the operations completes
       (the callback is called). The handle is destroyed.

       Parameters:
           handle the handle to be closed.
           attr how to close attribute
           cb The function to be called when the close operation completes.
           user_arg A user pointer that will be threaded through to the callback.

       Initializes a handle based on the scheme given.

       Parameters:
           out_h An uninitialized handle that will be initialized in the function to correspond
           to the scheme given. This handle should be used for any I/O operations.
           scheme A string containing the protocol which the handle should be initialized to. The
           string can either be a protocol by itself, for example, 'http', or a complete scheme
           such as 'http://www.example.com'.
           attr Attribute to be used for setting parameter string. It is initialized by the
           function. Can be NULL if attributes are not being used.
           param_string A string containing attributes to be set for the drivers associated with
           the scheme. This should be in the form
           'protocol1:option1=value1;option2=value2,protocol2:option1=value1;
                  option2=value2' Can be NULL if attributes are not being used.
