.SH "NAME"
sd_event_set_name, sd_event_get_name \- Set human\-readable names for event sources
.SH "SYNOPSIS"

.BI "int sd_event_set_name(sd_event_source\ *" "source" ", const\ char\ *" "name" ");"

.BI "int sd_event_get_name(sd_event_source\ *" "source" ", const\ char\ **" "name" ");"
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
\fBsd_event_set_name()\fR
can be used to set an arbitrary name for the event source
\fIsource\fR\&. This name will be used in error messages generated by
\fBsd-event\fR(3)
for this source\&. Specified
\fIname\fR
must point to a
\fBNUL\fR\-terminated string or be
\fBNULL\fR\&. In the latter case, the name will be unset\&. The string is copied internally, so the
\fIname\fR
argument is not referenced after the function returns\&.
.PP
\fBsd_event_set_name()\fR
can be used to query the current name assigned to source
\fIsource\fR\&. It returns a pointer to the current name (possibly
\fBNULL\fR) in
\fIname\fR\&.
.SH "RETURN VALUE"
.PP
On success,
\fBsd_event_set_name()\fR
and
\fBsd_event_get_name()\fR
return a non\-negative integer\&. On failure, they return a negative errno\-style error code\&.
.SH "ERRORS"
.PP
Returned errors may indicate the following problems:
.PP
\fB\-EINVAL\fR
.RS 4
\fIsource\fR
is not a valid pointer to an
sd_event_source
structure or the
\fIname\fR
argument for
\fBsd_event_get_name()\fR
is
\fBNULL\fR\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-ENOMEM\fR
.RS 4
Not enough memory to copy the name\&.
.RE
.SH "NOTES"
.PP
Functions described here are available as a shared library, which can be compiled and linked to with the
\fBlibsystemd\fR\ \&\fBpkg-config\fR(1)
file\&.
