DESCRIPTION¶
These functions return information about the server.
Many of the functions return pointers to strings or other types of information which, in most cases, you must not free. These are denoted as "read-only" in the sections below.
- Ns_InfoAddress()
- Return the server IP address of the server. The IP address is defined in the server configuration file. The IP address is returned as a string pointer which you must treat as read-only. If you want to alter the string, you must use ns_strdup to copy the string to another location in memory and modify that instead.
- Ns_InfoBootTime()
- Return the time that the server was started as an int. Treat the result as time_t.
- Ns_InfoBuildDate()
- Return the date and time that this server was compiled as a string pointer. Treat the result as read-only.
- Ns_InfoConfigFile()
- Return the absolute path name of the configuration file in use as a string pointer. Treat the result as read-only.
- Ns_InfoErrorLog()
- Return the name of the error log as a string pointer. Treat the result as read-only. The name may be just a name, a relative path or an absolute path depending on how it is defined in the server configuration file.
- Ns_InfoHomePath()
- Return the absolute directory path where AOLserver is installed as a string pointer. Treat the result as read-only.
- Ns_InfoHostname()
- Return the hostname of the host that AOLserver is running on as a string pointer. The gethostname(2) function is used. If gethostname(2) fails to return a hostname, "localhost" is used instead. Treat the result as read-only.
- Ns_InfoLabel()
- Return the source code label for AOLserver as a string pointer. Statically defined in the source code. If no label was used, "unlabeled" is returned. You can use these functions to provide the source code label when you report problems with the server. Treat the result as read-only.
- Ns_InfoNameOfExecutable()
- Return the name of the running executable as a string pointer. Treat the result as read-only.
- Ns_InfoPid()
- Return the pid of the running AOLserver executable as an int.
- Ns_InfoPlatform()
- Return the platform name as a string pointer, e.g. "linux". Treat the result as read-only.
- Ns_InfoServerName()
- Return the AOLserver name string, e.g. "AOLserver". Statically defined in the source code. Treat the result as read-only.
- Ns_InfoServerVersion()
- Return the AOLserver version string, e.g. "3.5.2". Statically defined in the source code. Treat the result as read-only.
- Ns_InfoServersStarted()
- Return TRUE if the server has started, i.e., if initialization and module loading is complete. This is a compatibility function that calls Ns_InfoStarted.
- Ns_InfoShutdownPending()
- Return TRUE if there is there a shutdown pending, i.e. if an INTR signal has been received or if ns_shutdown has been called.
- Ns_InfoStarted()
- Return TRUE if the server has started, i.e., if initialization and module loading is complete.
- Ns_InfoTag()
- Return the CVS tag of this build of AOLserver. Statically defined in the source code. The value may be meaningless. Treat the result as read-only.
- Ns_InfoUptime()
- Return how long, in seconds, AOLserver has been running.
- Ns_PageRoot(server)
- Return the path name of the AOLserver pages directory for a particular server as a string pointer. The server argument is not used. Treat the result as read-only.
