12
14 remctl_new() creates a new remctl client. The resulting remctl struct
15 is opaque from the perspective of the caller, but should be the first
16 argument to all subsequent calls into the remctl API. Normally, the
17 next call after remctl_new() would be remctl_open() to connect to a
18 remote server.
19
20 The resulting struct should be freed by calling remctl_close().
21
23 remctl_new() returns a pointer to an opaque remctl struct on success
24 and NULL on failure. If it returns NULL, errno will be set to an
25 appropriate error code (normally ENOMEM).
