.SH NAME
PAPI_create_eventset \- Create a new empty PAPI EventSet\&.  

.SH SYNOPSIS
.br
.PP
.SH "Detailed Description"
.PP 

.PP
\fBC Interface:\fP
.RS 4
#include <\fBpapi\&.h\fP> 
.br
PAPI_create_eventset( int * EventSet );
.RE
.PP
\fBPAPI_create_eventset\fP creates a new EventSet pointed to by EventSet, which must be initialized to PAPI_NULL before calling this routine\&. The user may then add hardware events to the event set by calling \fBPAPI_add_event\fP or similar routines\&.
.PP
\fBNote\fP
.RS 4
PAPI-C uses a late binding model to bind EventSets to components\&. When an EventSet is first created it is not bound to a component\&. This will cause some API calls that modify EventSet options to fail\&. An EventSet can be bound to a component explicitly by calling \fBPAPI_assign_eventset_component\fP or implicitly by calling \fBPAPI_add_event\fP or similar routines\&.
.RE
.PP
\fBParameters\fP
.RS 4
\fI*EventSet\fP Address of an integer location to store the new EventSet handle\&.
.RE
.PP
\fBExceptions\fP
.RS 4
\fIPAPI_EINVAL\fP The argument handle has not been initialized to PAPI_NULL or the argument is a NULL pointer\&.
.br
\fIPAPI_ENOMEM\fP Insufficient memory to complete the operation\&.
