.SH "Detailed Description"
.PP

\fBC Interface:\fP
.RS 4
#include <\fBpapi\&.h\fP> 
.br
 int \fBPAPI_query_event(int EventCode)\fP;
.RE
.PP
\fBPAPI_query_event()\fP asks the PAPI library if the PAPI Preset event can be counted on this architecture\&. If the event CAN be counted, the function returns PAPI_OK\&. If the event CANNOT be counted, the function returns an error code\&. This function also can be used to check the syntax of native and user events\&.
.PP
\fBParameters:\fP
.RS 4
\fIEventCode\fP -- a defined event such as PAPI_TOT_INS\&.
.RE
.PP
\fBReturn values:\fP
.RS 4
\fIPAPI_EINVAL\fP One or more of the arguments is invalid\&. 
.br
\fIPAPI_ENOEVNT\fP The PAPI preset is not available on the underlying hardware\&.
