auparse_feed - feed data into parser

#include <auparse.h>

int auparse_feed(auparse_state_t *au, const char *data, size_t data_len);

The audit parse state
a buffer of data to feed into the parser, it is data_len bytes long. The data is copied in the parser, upon return the caller may free or reuse the data buffer.
number of bytes in data

auparse_feed supplies new data for the parser to consume. auparse_init() must have been called with a source type of AUSOURCE_FEED and a NULL pointer.

The parser consumes as much data as it can invoking a user supplied callback specified with auparse_add_callback with a cb_event_type of AUPARSE_CB_EVENT_READY each time the parser recognizes a complete event in the data stream. Data not fully parsed will persist and be prepended to the next feed data. After all data has been feed to the parser auparse_flush_feed should be called to signal the end of input data and flush any pending parse data through the parsing system.

auparse_callback(auparse_state_t *au, auparse_cb_event_t cb_event_type,

fprintf(stderr, "could not open '%s', %s\n", filename, strerror(errno));
return 1;
}
while ((len = fread(buf, 1, sizeof(buf), fp))) {
auparse_feed(au, buf, len);
}
auparse_flush_feed(au); }

Returns -1 if an error occurs; otherwise, 0 for success.
