Detailed Description

Function Documentation

   int BRLAPI_STDCALL brlapi__pause (brlapi_handle_t * handle, int timeout_ms)
   int BRLAPI_STDCALL brlapi__sync (brlapi_handle_t * handle)
   int BRLAPI_STDCALL brlapi_pause (int timeout_ms)
       Waits until an event is received from the BrlAPI server

       Parameters
           timeout_ms specifies an optional timeout which can be zero for polling, or -1 for
           infinite wait

       Returns
           0 on timeout, -1 on error, or on interruption by a signal or a parameter change
           notification, in which case brlapi_errno will be BRLAPI_ERROR_LIBCERR and errno will
           be EINTR.

   int BRLAPI_STDCALL brlapi_sync (void)
       Synchronize against any pending exception, and returns it. This allows to synchronously
       catch exception raised by brlapi_write calls. This works by temporarily replacing the
       current exception handler by its own handler.

       Returns
           0 if no exception was pending, -1 if an exception was caught.
