Howto use Libgami

Libgami supports both synchronous and asynchronous usage. The following sample program will demonstrate either one. It will not cover every aspect of Libgami, e.g. action responses returning non-booleans and manager events are not shown here, but it should give you a general idea about Libgami usage and provide you with a starting point.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <gami.h>

void
gami_ping_cb (GamiResponse *response, gpointer data)
{
	GMainLoop *loop = data;

	if (gami_response_success (response))
		printf ("PONG!\n");
	else
		printf ("Failed to ping server.\n");
	
	g_main_loop_quit (loop);
}

int
main (int argc, char *argv [])
{
	GMainLoop    *loop;
	GamiManager  *manager;
	GamiResponse *response;

	gami_init (&argc, &argv);

	loop = g_main_loop_new (NULL, FALSE);

	manager = gami_manager_new ("localhost", "5038");
	g_assert (manager != NULL);

	response = gami_manager_login (manager, "foo", "bar",
	                               NULL, GAMI_EVENT_MASK_NONE,
	                               NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL);
	
	g_assert (gami_response_success (response));
	gami_response_unref (response);

	response = gami_manager_ping (manager, NULL,
	                              gami_ping_cb, (gpointer) loop, NULL);

	g_assert (gami_response_success (response));
	gami_response_unref (response);

	g_main_loop_run (loop);
	
	response = gami_manager_logoff (manager, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL);
	gami_response_unref (response);

	return 0;
}
