    SYNOPSIS
         #include "drmaa.h"

         const char *drmaa_strerror(
              int drmaa_errno
         );

         int drmaa_get_contact(
              char *contact,
              size_t contact_len,
              char *error_diagnosis,
              size_t error_diag_len
         );

         int drmaa_version(
              unsigned int *major,
              unsigned int *minor,
              char *error_diagnosis,
              size_t error_diag_len
         );

         int drmaa_get_DRM_system(
              char *drm_system,
              size_t drm_system_len,
              char *error_diagnosis,
              size_t error_diag_len
         );

         int drmaa_get_DRMAA_implementation(
              char *drm_impl,
              size_t drm_impl_len,
              char *error_diagnosis,
              size_t error_diag_len
         );

    DESCRIPTION
         The drmaa_strerror() function returns a message text associ-
         ated  with  the DRMAA error number, drmaa_errno. For invalid
         DRMAA error codes `NULL' is returned.

      drmaa_get_contact()
         The drmaa_get_contact() returns an opaque string  containing
         contact  information related to the current DRMAA session to
         be used with the drmaa_init(3)  function.   In  the  current
         implemention,   however,  the  drmaa_get_contact()  function
         returns an empty string, and the contact  parameter  has  no
         effect on the drmaa_init(3) function.

         The drmaa_get_contact()  function  returns  the  same  value
         before and after drmaa_init(3) is called.

      drmaa_version()
         The  drmaa_version()  function  returns  into  the  integers
         pointed  to  by major and minor, the major and minor version
         numbers of the DRMAA library.  For  a  DRMAA  1.0  compliant
         implementation  `1'  and  `0'  will be returned in major and
         minor, respectively.

      drmaa_get_DRM_system()
         The drmaa_get_DRM_system() function returns into  drm_system
         up  to drm_system_len characters of a string containing Grid
         Engine product and version information.

         The drmaa_get_DRM_system() function returns the  same  value
         before and after drmaa_init(3) is called.

      drmaa_get_DRMAA_implementation()
         The drmaa_get_DRMAA_implementation() function  returns  into
         drm_system  up to drm_system_len characters of a string con-
         taining the Grid Engine DRMAA implementation version  infor-
         mation.      In     the    current    implementation,    the
         drmaa_get_DRMAA_implementation() function returns  the  same
         result as the drmaa_get_DRM_system() function.

         The drmaa_get_DRMAA_implementation()  function  returns  the
         same value before and after drmaa_init(3) is called.

    ENVIRONMENTAL VARIABLES
         SGE_ROOT       Specifies the location  of  the  Grid  Engine
                        standard configuration files.

         SGE_CELL       If set, specifies  the  default  Grid  Engine
                        cell  to  be  used.  To address a Grid Engine
                        cell Grid Engine uses (in the order  of  pre-
                        cedence):

                             The name of the cell  specified  in  the
                             environment  variable SGE_CELL, if it is
                             set.

                             The  name  of  the  default  cell,  i.e.
                             default.

         SGE_DEBUG_LEVEL
                        If  set,  specifies  that  debug  information
                        should  be written to stderr. In addition the
                        level of detail in which debug information is
                        generated is defined.

         SGE_QMASTER_PORT
                        If set,  specifies  the  tcp  port  on  which
                        sge_qmaster(8) is expected to listen for com-
                        munication requests.  Most installations will
                        use  a  services  map entry instead to define
                        that port.

    RETURN VALUES
         Upon     successful     completion,     drmaa_get_contact(),
         drmaa_version(),     and    drmaa_get_DRM_system()    return
         DRMAA_ERRNO_SUCCESS. Other values indicate an error.  Up  to
         error_diag_len  characters of error related diagnosis infor-
         mation is then provided in the buffer error_diagnosis.

    ERRORS
         The          drmaa_get_contact(),           drmaa_version(),
         drmaa_get_DRM_system(), and drmaa_get_DRMAA_implementation()
         will fail if:

      DRMAA_ERRNO_INTERNAL_ERROR
         Unexpected  or  internal  DRMAA  error,  like  system   call
         failure, etc.

      DRMAA_ERRNO_DRM_COMMUNICATION_FAILURE
         Could not contact DRM system for this request.

      DRMAA_ERRNO_AUTH_FAILURE
         The specified request is not processed successfully  due  to
         authorization failure.

      DRMAA_ERRNO_INVALID_ARGUMENT
         The input value for an argument is invalid.

      DRMAA_ERRNO_NO_MEMORY
         Failed allocating memory.

         The drmaa_get_contact() and drmaa_get_DRM_system() will fail
         if:

      DRMAA_ERRNO_NO_ACTIVE_SESSION
         Failed because there is no active session.
