C/CLI-API changes on existing features

Developers may need to change their code

  • Renamed clixon_txt2file() to clixon_text2file()

  • Changed parameters of example clispec function compare_dbs()

    • New parameters are: db1, db2, format

  • Add fromroot parameter to cli_show_common()

    • cli_show_common(...xpath...) --> cli_show_common(...xpath,0...)

  • Low-level message functions added descr argument for better logging

    • In this way, message debugs in level 2 are more descriptive
    • The descr argument can be set to NULL for backward-compability, see the following translations:
      • clicon_rpc(s, ...) --> clicon_rpc(s, NULL, ...)
      • clicon_rpc1(s, ...) --> clicon_rpc1(s, NULL, ...)
      • clicon_msg_send(s, ...) --> clicon_msg_send(s, NULL, ...)
      • clicon_msg_send1(s, ...) --> clicon_msg_send1(s, NULL, ...)
      • clicon_msg_rcv(s, ...) --> clicon_msg_rcv(s, NULL, ...)
      • clicon_msg_rcv1(s, ...) --> `clicon_msg_rcv1(s, NULL, ...)
      • clicon_msg_notify_xml(h, s, ...) --> clicon_msg_notify_xml(h, s, NULL, ...)
      • send_msg_reply(s, ...) --> send_msg_reply(s, NULL, ...)
      • clixon_client_lock(s, ...) --> clixon_client_lock(s, NULL, ...)
      • clixon_client_hello(s, ...) --> clixon_client_hello(s, NULL, ...)
