Description

Functions

glibtop_get_proc_args ()

char *
glibtop_get_proc_args (glibtop_proc_args *buf,
                       pid_t pid,
                       unsigned  max_len);

Get process command line arguments.

Parameters

buf	Struct with `size` of returned string.
pid	Process id
max_len	Maximum length of string to return (use zero to get all arguments).

Returns

pid 's command line arguments separated by null bytes; the length of this string is returned in the buf size field. You are required to free the string when done.

glibtop_get_proc_argv ()

char **
glibtop_get_proc_argv (glibtop_proc_args *buf,
                       pid_t pid,
                       unsigned  max_len);

Get process command line arguments.

Parameters

buf	Struct with `size` of combined returned arguments.
pid	Process id
max_len	Maximum length of all arguments combined (use zero to get all arguments).

Returns

A NULL-terminated array of strings with all arguments of process pid (up to max_len characters). Remember to g_strfreev the returned array to avoid a memory leak.

Types and Values

struct glibtop_proc_args

struct glibtop_proc_args {
	guint64 flags;
	guint64 size;			/* GLIBTOP_PROC_ARGS_SIZE */
};
