NAME

       capng_print_caps_numeric - print numeric values for capabilities set

SYNOPSIS

       #include <cap-ng.h>

       char *capng_print_caps_numeric(capng_print_t where, capng_select_t set);

DESCRIPTION

       capng_print_caps_numeric  will  create  a  numeric  representation  of  the  internal  capabilities.  The
       representation  can  be  sent  to  either  stdout  or  a  buffer   by   passing   CAPNG_PRINT_STDOUT   or
       CAPNG_PRINT_BUFFER  respectively  for  the where parameter. If the option was for a buffer, this function
       will malloc a buffer that the caller must free.

       The  set  parameter  controls  what  is  included  in  the  representation.   The   legal   options   are
       CAPNG_SELECT_CAPS  for  the  traditional  capabilities,  CAPNG_SELECT_BOUNDS  for  the  bounding  set, or
       CAPNG_SELECT_BOTH if clearing both is desired.

RETURN VALUE

       If CAPNG_PRINT_BUFFER was selected for where, this will be the  text  buffer  and  NULL  on  failure.  If
       CAPNG_PRINT_STDOUT was selected then this value will be NULL no matter what.
