(* Types used to describe the API. *)

type style = ret * args * optargs
    (* The [style] is a tuple which describes the return value and
     * arguments of a function.
     *
     * [ret] is the return value, one of the [R*] values below.
     *
     * The second element is the list of required arguments, a list of
     * [argt]s from the list below, eg. [Bool], [String] etc.  Each has
     * a name so that for example [Int "foo"] corresponds in the C
     * bindings to an [int foo] parameter.
     *
     * The third element is the list of optional arguments.  These are
     * mapped to optional arguments in the language binding, eg. in
     * Perl to:
     *   $g->fn (required1, required2, opt1 => val, opt2 => val);
     * As the name suggests these are optional, and the function can
     * tell which optional parameters were supplied by the caller.
     *)

and ret =
    (* "RErr" as a return value means an int used as a simple error
     * indication, ie. 0 or -1.
     *)
  | RErr

    (* "RInt" as a return value means an int which is -1 for error
     * or any value >= 0 on success.  Only use this for smallish
     * positive ints (0 <= i < 2^30).
     *)
  | RInt of string

    (* "RInt64" is the same as RInt, but is guaranteed to be able
     * to return a full 64 bit value, _except_ that -1 means error
     * (so -1 cannot be a valid, non-error return value).
     *)
  | RInt64 of string

    (* "RBool" is a bool return value which can be true/false or
     * -1 for error.
     *)
  | RBool of string

    (* "RConstString" is a string that refers to a constant value.
     * The return value must NOT be NULL (since NULL indicates
     * an error).
     *
     * Try to avoid using this.  In particular you cannot use this
     * for values returned from the daemon, because there is no
     * thread-safe way to return them in the C API.
     *)
  | RConstString of string

    (* "RConstOptString" is an even more broken version of
     * "RConstString".  The returned string may be NULL and there
     * is no way to return an error indication.  Avoid using this!
     *)
  | RConstOptString of string

    (* "RString" is a returned string.  It must NOT be NULL, since
     * a NULL return indicates an error.  The caller frees this.
     *)
  | RString of string

    (* "RStringList" is a list of strings.  No string in the list
     * can be NULL.  The caller frees the strings and the array.
     *)
  | RStringList of string

    (* "RStruct" is a function which returns a single named structure
     * or an error indication (in C, a struct, and in other languages
     * with varying representations, but usually very efficient).  See
     * after the function list below for the structures.
     *)
  | RStruct of string * string		(* name of retval, name of struct *)

    (* "RStructList" is a function which returns either a list/array
     * of structures (could be zero-length), or an error indication.
     *)
  | RStructList of string * string	(* name of retval, name of struct *)

    (* Key-value pairs of untyped strings.  Turns into a hashtable or
     * dictionary in languages which support it.  DON'T use this as a
     * general "bucket" for results.  Prefer a stronger typed return
     * value if one is available, or write a custom struct.  Don't use
     * this if the list could potentially be very long, since it is
     * inefficient.  Keys should be unique.  NULLs are not permitted.
     *)
  | RHashtable of string

    (* "RBufferOut" is handled almost exactly like RString, but
     * it allows the string to contain arbitrary 8 bit data including
     * ASCII NUL.  In the C API this causes an implicit extra parameter
     * to be added of type <size_t *size_r>.  The extra parameter
     * returns the actual size of the return buffer in bytes.
     *
     * Other programming languages support strings with arbitrary 8 bit
     * data.
     *
     * At the RPC layer we have to use the opaque<> type instead of
     * string<>.  Returned data is still limited to the max message
     * size (ie. ~ 2 MB).

     * from the user.
     *)
