Description

-----------

This module provided access to the Solaris Extended Accounting (exacct)

subsystem, which is part of the Solaris resource management infrastructure.

An example of how this module might be used is to dump the contents of an

exacct data file:

use Sun::Solaris::Exacct qw(:EXACCT_ALL);

die("Usage is dumpexacct <exacct file>\n") unless (@ARGV == 1);

my $ef = ea_new_file($ARGV[0], &O_RDONLY) || die(ea_error_str());

printf("Creator: %s\n", $ef->creator());

printf("Hostname: %s\n\n", $ef->hostname());

while (my $obj = $ef->get()) {

ea_dump_object($obj);

}

if (ea_error() != EXR_OK && ea_error() != EXR_EOF) {

printf("\nERROR: %s\n", ea_error_str());

exit(1);

}

exit(0);
