<title>Description</title>
|
|
|
|
<para><function>sd_hwdb_new()</function> creates a new hwdb object to access the binary hwdb
|
|
database. Upon initialization, the file containing the binary representation of the hardware database is
|
|
located and opened. The new object is returned in <parameter>hwdb</parameter>.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The <parameter>hwdb</parameter> object is reference counted. <function>sd_hwdb_ref()</function> and
|
|
<function>sd_hwdb_unref()</function> may be used to get a new reference or destroy an existing reference
|
|
to an object. The caller must dispose of the reference acquired with <function>sd_hwdb_new()</function>
|
|
by calling <function>sd_hwdb_unref()</function> when done with the object.</para>

<title>Return Value</title>

failure, it returns a negative errno-style error code.</para>

<para><function>sd_hwdb_ref()</function> always returns the argument.
