yp-client C Header Files

The C++ API classes allow use of the yp-client API, but only from C++ programs. Languages like C and Python can't use them directly. The functions described in the c-api-* files give programming languages that can access libraries using C functions access to the yp-client API.

Warning

Do not attempt to mix the C and C++ API functions.

A description of the yp-client .h header files follows. These files can be found in /usr/include/yumapro/mgr and /usr/include/yumapro/ycli directories.
