Detailed Description
The module implements a parameter list data type, a container for the cpl_parameter type. It provides a convenient way to pass a set of parameters, as a whole, to a function.
It is used in the plugin interface (cf. Plugin Interface), for instance, to pass the parameters a recipe accepts from the plugin to the calling application and vice versa.
All functions expect a valid pointer to a parameter list as input, unless otherwise specified.
- Synopsis:
#include <cpl_parameterlist.h>
Typedef Documentation
The opaque parameter list data type.
Function Documentation
Append a parameter to a parameter list.
- Parameters:
-
self | A parameter list. |
parameter | The parameter to append. |
- Returns:
- The function returns
CPL_ERROR_NONE
on success or a CPL error code otherwise.
- Errors:
CPL_ERROR_NULL_INPUT | The parameter self is a NULL pointer. |
The parameter parameter is appended to the parameter list self.
Destroy a parameter list.
- Parameters:
-
self | The parameter list to destroy. |
- Returns:
- Nothing.
The function destroys the parameter list object self and all parameters it possibly contains. The individual parameters are destroyed using the parameter destructor (cf. Parameters). If self is NULL
, nothing is done and no error is set.
Dump the contents of a parameter list to the given stream.
- Parameters:
-
self | The parameter list. |
stream | The output stream to use. |
- Returns:
- Nothing.
The function dumps the debugging information for each parameter found in the parameter list self to the output stream stream. The debugging information for each individual parameter is dumped using cpl_parameter_dump(). If self is NULL
the function does nothing.
- See also:
- cpl_parameter_dump()
Find a parameter with the given name in a parameter list.
- Parameters:
-
self | A parameter list. |
name | The parameter name to search for. |
- Returns:
- The function returns a handle for the first parameter with the name name, or
NULL
if no such parameter was found. If an error occurs the function returns NULL
and sets an appropriate error code.
- Errors:
CPL_ERROR_NULL_INPUT | The parameter self or name is a NULL pointer. |
The function searches the parameter list self for the first occurrence of a parameter with the fully qualified name name. If no parameter with this name exists, the function returns NULL
.

- Parameters:
-
self | A parameter list. |
name | The parameter name to search for. |
- Returns:

NULL
if no such parameter was found. If an error occurs the function returns NULL
and sets an appropriate error code.
- Errors:
CPL_ERROR_NULL_INPUT | The parameter self or name is a NULL pointer. |

Find a parameter of the given type in a parameter list.
- Parameters:
-
self | A parameter list. |
type | The parameter type to search for. |

- The function returns a handle for the first parameter with the type type, or
NULL
if no such parameter was found. If an error occurs the function returns NULL
and sets an appropriate error code.
- Errors:
CPL_ERROR_NULL_INPUT | The parameter self is a NULL pointer. |
The function searches the parameter list self for the first occurrence of a parameter whose value is of the type type. If no parameter with this type exists, the function returns NULL
.
Find a parameter of the given type in a parameter list.
- Parameters:
-
self | A parameter list. |
type | The parameter type to search for. |

.
Get the first parameter in the given parameter list.
- Parameters:
-
- Returns:
- The function returns a handle for the first parameter in the list, or
NULL
if the list is empty. If an error occurs the function returns NULL
and sets an appropriate error code.
- Errors:
CPL_ERROR_NULL_INPUT | The parameter self is a NULL pointer. |
The function returns the first parameter in the parameter list self, if it exists. If there is no first parameter, i.e. if the list is empty, NULL
is returned. The function updates the internal search position cache.
Get the first parameter in the given parameter list.
- Parameters:
-
- Returns:
- The function returns a handle for the first parameter in the list, or
NULL
if the list is empty. If an error occurs the function returns NULL
and sets an appropriate error code.
- Errors:
CPL_ERROR_NULL_INPUT | The parameter self is a NULL pointer. |
The function returns the first parameter in the parameter list self, if it exists. If there is no first parameter, i.e. if the list is empty, NULL
is returned. The function updates the internal search position cache.
Get the last parameter in the given list.
- Parameters:
-
- Returns:
- The function returns a handle for the last parameter in the list. If an error occurs the function returns
NULL
and sets an appropriate error code.
- Errors:
CPL_ERROR_NULL_INPUT | The parameter self is a NULL pointer. |
CPL_ERROR_ILLEGAL_INPUT | The parameter self is an empty list. |
The function returns the last parameter stored in the parameter list self. The list self must not be empty.
Get the last parameter in the given list.
- Parameters:
-
- Returns:
- The function returns a handle for the last parameter in the list. If an error occurs the function returns
NULL

Get the next parameter in the given list.
- Parameters:
-
- Returns:
- The function returns a handle for the next parameter in the list, or
NULL
if there are no more parameters in the list. If an error occurs the function returns NULL
and sets an appropriate error code.
- Errors:
CPL_ERROR_NULL_INPUT | The parameter self is a NULL pointer. |
The function returns the next parameter in the parameter list self if it exists and NULL
otherwise. The function uses the last cached search position to determine the most recently accessed parameter. This means that the function only works as expected if the self has been initialised by a call to cpl_parameterlist_get_first(), and if no function updating the internal cache was called between two subsequent calls to this function.
Get the next parameter in the given list.
- Parameters:
-
- Returns:
- The function returns a handle for the next parameter in the list, or
NULL
if there are no more parameters in the list. If an error occurs the function returns NULL
and sets an appropriate error code.
- Errors:
CPL_ERROR_NULL_INPUT | The parameter self is a NULL pointer. |
The function returns the next parameter in the parameter list self if it exists and NULL
otherwise. The function uses the last cached search position to determine the most recently accessed parameter. This means that the function only works as expected if the self has been initialised by a call to cpl_parameterlist_get_first_const(), and if no function updating the internal cache was called between two subsequent calls to this function.
Get the current size of a parameter list.
- Parameters:
-
- Returns:
- The parameter list's current size, or 0 if the list is empty. If an error occurs the function returns 0 and sets an appropriate error code.
- Errors:
CPL_ERROR_NULL_INPUT | The parameter self is a NULL pointer. |
The function reports the current number of elements stored in the parameter list self.
Create a new parameter list.
- Returns:
- A pointer to the newly created parameter list.
The function creates a new parameter list object. The created object must be destroyed using the parameter list destructor cpl_parameterlist_delete().
