Currently virt-v2v has few custom C-based functions for libvirt operations, which are limited in what they do, and there is a lot of duplicated code. Instead, switch to ocaml-libvirt for all the libvirt interaction currently done by the Libvirt_utils module. This has few advantages: - each input & output module now opens a libvirt connection only once, only when needed - no need to pass URIs and passwords around, if not needed - a wider range of libvirt APIs can now be used, with no need to create bindings manually The hierarchy of input_libvirt* classes is changed to take a Lazy object with the libvirt connection, accessing it through a "proctected" method: this way, the connection is opened only at the first access. Also, the Libvirt_utils module now is just helpers around the Libvirt module, to centralize error handling, and few common operations.
This directory contains miscellaneous manual pages which don't fit elsewhere. Most libguestfs documentation is in manual pages. The source for those manual pages are POD files (*.pod), and they are normally located next to the source files they relate to (eg. guestfish documentation is in fish/guestfish.pod). All manual pages are available online at http://libguestfs.org/ The main API documentation is: http://libguestfs.org/guestfs.3.html
