NAME

       pmEventFlagsStr, pmEventFlagsStr_r - convert an event record flags value into a string

C SYNOPSIS

       #include <pcp/pmapi.h>

       const char *pmEventFlagsStr(int flags);
       char *pmEventFlagsStr_r(int flags, char *buf, int buflen);

       cc ... -lpcp

DESCRIPTION

       For  use  in  error  and  diagnostic  messages, pmEventFlagsStr returns a `human readable'
       version of the value flags, assuming this to be the er_flags field of a  pmEventRecord  or
       pmEventHighResRecord.  The pmEventFlagsStr_r function does the same, but stores the result
       in a user-supplied buffer buf of length buflen, which should have room  for  at  least  64
       bytes.

       The  string  value  result  from pmEventFlagsStr is held in a single static buffer, so the
       returned value is only valid until the next call to pmEventFlagsStr.

NOTES

       pmEventFlagsStr returns a pointer to a static buffer and hence is not thread-safe.  Multi-
       threaded applications should use pmEventFlagsStr_r instead.
