tep_find_common_field, tep_find_field, tep_find_any_field - Search for a field in an event.
#include <event-parse.h> struct tep_format_field *tep_find_common_field(struct tep_event *event, const char *name); struct tep_format_field *tep_find_field(struct tep_event_ormat *event, const char *name); struct tep_format_field *tep_find_any_field(struct tep_event *event, const char *name);
These functions search for a field with given name in an event. The field returned can be used to find the field content from within a data record.
The tep_find_common_field() function searches for a common field with name in the event.
The tep_find_field() function searches for an event specific field with name in the event.
The tep_find_any_field() function searches for any field with name in the event.
The tep_find_common_field(), tep_find_field() and _tep_find_any_field() functions return a pointer to the found field, or NULL in case there is no field with the requested name.
