11 int cpg_join(cpg_handle_t handle, struct cpg_name *group);
12
14 The cpg_join function is used to join one group. When a group is
15 joined, using the cpg_mcast_joined(3) function will multicast to the
16 groups joined in the argument handle. The process will also get noti‐
17 fications of other processes joining and leaving the group. Messages
18 that are sent to any of the groups joined to the parameter handle will
19 be delivered by cpg_dispatch(3).
20
21 This function may be only be called once for each handle. When a group
22 has been joined the process will start to receive callbacks relating to
23 messages send from members of the group or notifications of process
24 joining/leaving the group.
25
26 Note that more than one process can join a CPG group and each will
27 receive its own copy of any messages sent using cpg_mcast_joined() and
28 its own confchg callback.
29
30 The argument group is used to specify the group to join.
31
32
33 The groups argument is of the type struct cpg_name which is defined by
34 the structure:
35
36
37 struct cpg_name {
38 int length;
39 char value[128];
40 };
41
43 This call returns the CPG_OK value if successful, CPG_ERR_INVALID_PARAM
44 if the handle is already joined to a group.
45
47 Not all errors are documented.
