pmWhichContext - identify the current PMAPI context
#include <pcp/pmapi.h>
int pmWhichContext(void);

An application using the Performance Metrics Application Programming Interface
(PMAPI) may manipulate several concurrent contexts, each associated with a
source of performance metrics, e.g.
pmcd(1) on some host, or an archive
log of performance metrics as created by
pmlogger(1).
pmWhichContext returns a handle for the current PMAPI context, that may
be used in the associated PMAPI routines that require a handle to identify a
PMAPI context.
- PM_ERR_NOCONTEXT
- no current context

pmDestroyContext(3),
pmDupContext(3),
pmNewContext(3) and
