.TH "CAPNG_SAVE_STATE" "3" "June 2009" "Red Hat" "Libcap-ng API"
.SH NAME
capng_save_state \- get the internal library state
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.B #include <cap-ng.h>
.sp
void *capng_save_state(void);

.SH "DESCRIPTION"

capng_save_state is a function that returns a pointer to the internal state of the libcap-ng library. It should be considered opaque and not for alteration directly. This function should be used when you suspect a third party library may use libcap-ng also and want to make sure it doesn't alter something important. This function is not available in the python bindings.

.SH "RETURN VALUE"

This returns NULL on failure and a non-NULL pointer otherwise.
