ccvs_command
Name
ccvs_command — Executes a protocol-specific command.
Synopsis
string ccvs_command(session, command, argument);
string session: ID of
session to use
string command: Command to
execute
string argument: Argument to
pass to command
Returns
'OK' on success; on error, 'invalid request', 'syntax
error', 'uninitialized', or 'unknown'
Description
Various protocols implement their own commands, which may
or may not be shared by other protocols. Since it would
be unrealistic to attempt to provide API functions for
all possible commands in all possible protocols,
ccvs_command() allows you to execute arbitrary
protocol-specific commands in a general way.
If appropriate, any additional results of the command can
be fetched by using ccvs_textvalue() .
Set command to the name of the
command you want to execute, and argument to any additional information
required by the command. If the command takes no
arguments, pass in a false value.
Consult your protocol documentation for available
commands and their arguments.
Version
PHP 4 since 4.0.2
Example
Example 86. Execute an
arbitrary protocol-specific command
echo "Executing a protocol-specific command:\n";
/* Note: your protocol is unlikely to support this command. Check your docs. */
$ret = ccvs_command($session, 'feedgoats', 'rolledoats');
echo "Returned: '$ret'; Return type: " . gettype($ret) . "\n";
echo "Textvalue: " . ccvs_textvalue($session) . "\n\n";
