Macros
#define	GLOBUS_TRUE   1
	True value for globus_bool_t.
#define	GLOBUS_FALSE   0
	False value for globus_bool_t.
#define	GLOBUS_NULL   NULL
	NULL value. More...
#define	GLOBUS_SUCCESS   0
	Generic success resultMost Globus API functions return this value to indicate success, or some error constant or globus_result_t to indicate an error.
#define	GLOBUS_FAILURE   -1
	Generic failure resultSome Globus API functions without good error handling return this value to indicate some undetermined error occurred.

Typedefs
typedef size_t	globus_size_t
	Standard size of memory objectThe globus_size_t is the size of a memory object. It is identical to size_t in all cases and doesn't need to be used ever.
typedef socklen_t	globus_socklen_t
	Size of a socket length parameter. More...
typedef unsigned char	globus_byte_t
	Unsigned byte datatypeThis is used for byte-addressable arrays of arbitrary data which is not subject to sign extension.
typedef int	globus_bool_t
	Boolean type. More...
typedef uint32_t	globus_result_t

Detailed Description

Common Primitive Types.

Defines the macros and typedefs common to all globus_common components.

Macro Definition Documentation

GLOBUS_NULL

#define GLOBUS_NULL   NULL

NULL value.

From back long ago before NULL was standardized? No reason to use this on any modern system.
