nm_vpn_plugin_info_list_find_service_type ()

                                const char *name);

A VPN plugin provides one or several service-types, like org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.libreswan Certain plugins provide more then one service type, via aliases (org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.openswan). This function looks up a service-type (or an alias) based on a name.

Preferably, the name can be a full service-type/alias of an installed plugin. Otherwise, it can be the name of a VPN plugin (in which case, the primary, non-aliased service-type is returned). Otherwise, it can be one of several well known short-names (which is a hard-coded list of types in libnm). On success, this returns a full qualified service-type (or an alias). It doesn't say, that such an plugin is actually available, but it could be retrieved via nm_vpn_plugin_info_list_find_by_service().

Parameters

list

a possibly empty GSList of NMVpnPluginInfo instances.

[element-type NMVpnPluginInfo]

name

a name to lookup the service-type.

 

Returns

the resolved service-type or NULL on failure.
