.SH "NAME"
libcoopgamma_get_pid_file - Get the PID file of the coopgamma server
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.nf
#include <libcoopgamma.h>
char *libcoopgamma_get_pid_file(const char *restrict \fImethod\fP, const char *restrict \fIsite\fP);

.SH "DESCRIPTION"
Newcomers need not concern themselves with the
.BR libcoopgamma_get_pid_file ()
function.
.P
The
.BR libcoopgamma_get_pid_file ()
function consults
.BR coopgammad (1)
to get the pathname of the PID file for the
.BR coopgammad (1)
instance for the selected adjustment
.I method
and
.IR site .
If
.I method
or
.I site
is
.IR NULL ,
the it will selected automatically.
.P

.I SIGCHLD

user of this library's responsibility to ensure
this. The

.I SIGCHLD
itself.
.SH "RETURN VALUES"
Upon successful completion, the
.BR libcoopgamma_get_pid_file ()
function returns the pathname of the PID file.
Success does not mean that the server is necessarily
running at the moment. The user should free
the returned pointer. On error,
.I NULL
is returned and
.I errno
is set appropriately.
.SH "ERRORS"
The
.BR libcoopgamma_get_pid_file ()
