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

.PP
\fBParameters\fP
.RS 4
\fIversion\fP upon initialization, PAPI checks the argument against the internal value of PAPI_VER_CURRENT when the library was compiled\&. This guards against portability problems when updating the PAPI shared libraries on your system\&.
.RE
.PP
\fBReturn values\fP
.RS 4
\fIPAPI_EINVAL\fP \fBpapi\&.h\fP is different from the version used to compile the PAPI library\&. 
.br
\fIPAPI_ENOMEM\fP Insufficient memory to complete the operation\&. 
.br
\fIPAPI_ECMP\fP This component does not support the underlying hardware\&. 
.br
\fIPAPI_ESYS\fP A system or C library call failed inside PAPI, see the errno variable\&.
.RE
.PP
PAPI_library_init() initializes the PAPI library\&. PAPI_is_initialized() check for initialization\&. It must be called before any low level PAPI functions can be used\&. If your application is making use of threads \fBPAPI_thread_init\fP must also be called prior to making any calls to the library other than PAPI_library_init() \&. 
.PP
\fBExamples:\fP
.RS 4

.PP
.nf
int retval;
retval = PAPI_library_init(PAPI_VER_CURRENT);
if (retval != PAPI_VER_CURRENT && retval > 0) {
    fprintf(stderr,"PAPI library version mismatch!\\en");
    exit(1); }
if (retval < 0)
    handle_error(retval);
retval = PAPI_is_initialized();
if (retval != PAPI_LOW_LEVEL_INITED)
    handle_error(retval)
