62	Welcome to the <b>VirtualBox Main API documentation</b>. This documentation
63	describes the so-called <i>VirtualBox Main API</i> which comprises all public
64	COM interfaces and components provided by the VirtualBox server and by the
65	VirtualBox client library.
66
67	VirtualBox employs a client-server design, meaning that whenever any part of
68	VirtualBox is running -- be it the Qt GUI, the VBoxManage command-line
69	interface or any virtual machine --, a dedicated server process named
70	VBoxSVC runs in the background. This allows multiple processes working with
71	VirtualBox to cooperate without conflicts. These processes communicate to each
72	other using inter-process communication facilities provided by the COM
73	implementation of the host computer.
74
75	On Windows platforms, the VirtualBox Main API uses Microsoft COM, a native COM
76	implementation. On all other platforms, Mozilla XPCOM, an open-source COM
77	implementation, is used.
78
79	All the parts that a typical VirtualBox user interacts with (the Qt GUI
80	and the VBoxManage command-line interface) are technically
81	front-ends to the Main API and only use the interfaces that are documented
82	in this Main API documentation. This ensures that, with any given release
83	version of VirtualBox, all capabilities of the product that could be useful
84	to an external client program are always exposed by way of this API.
85
86	The VirtualBox Main API (also called the <i>VirtualBox COM library</i>)
87	contains two public component classes:
88	<tt>%VirtualBox.VirtualBox</tt> and <tt>%VirtualBox.Session</tt>, which
89	implement IVirtualBox and ISession interfaces respectively. These two classes
90	are of supreme importance and will be needed in order for any front-end
91	program to do anything useful. It is recommended to read the documentation of
92	the mentioned interfaces first.
93
94	The <tt>%VirtualBox.VirtualBox</tt> class is a singleton. This means that
95	there can be only one object of this class on the local machine at any given
96	time. This object is a parent of many other objects in the VirtualBox COM
97	library and lives in the VBoxSVC process. In fact, when you create an instance
98	of the <tt>VirtualBox.VirtualBox</tt>, the COM subsystem checks if the VBoxSVC
99	process is already running, starts it if not, and returns you a reference to
100	the <tt>VirtualBox</tt> object created in this process. When the last reference
101	to this object is released, the VBoxSVC process ends (with a 5 second delay to
102	protect from too frequent restarts).
103
104	The <tt>%VirtualBox.Session</tt> class is a regular component. You can create
105	as many <tt>Session</tt> objects as you need but all of them will live in a
106	process which issues the object instantiation call. <tt>Session</tt> objects
107	represent virtual machine sessions which are used to configure virtual
108	machines and control their execution.
109
110	The naming of methods and attributes is very clearly defined: they all start
111	with a lowercase letter (except if they start with an acronym), and are using
112	CamelCase style otherwise. This naming only applies to the IDL description,
113	and is modified by the various language bindings (some convert the first
114	character to upper case, some not). See the SDK reference for more details
115	about how to call a method or attribute from a specific programming language.

287	<desc>
288	This section describes all VirtualBox-specific COM result codes that may
289	be returned by methods of VirtualBox COM interfaces in addition to
290	standard COM result codes.
291
292	Note that along with the result code, every VirtualBox method returns
293	extended error information through the IVirtualBoxErrorInfo interface on
294	failure. This interface is a preferred way to present the error to the end
295	user because it contains a human readable description of the error. Raw
296	result codes, both standard and described in this section, are intended to
297	be used by programs to analyze the reason of a failure and select an
298	appropriate course of action without involving the end user (for example,
299	retry the operation later or make a different call).
300
301	The standard COM result codes that may originate from our methods include:
302
303	<table>
304	<tr><td>E_INVALIDARG</td>
305	<td>
306	Returned when the value of the method's argument is not within the range
307	of valid values. This should not be confused with situations when the
308	value is within the range but simply doesn't suit the current object
309	state and there is a possibility that it will be accepted later (in such
310	cases VirtualBox-specific codes are returned, for example,
311	<link to="VBOX_E_OBJECT_NOT_FOUND"/>).
312	</td>
313	</tr>
314	<tr><td>E_POINTER</td>
315	<td>
316	Returned if a memory pointer for the output argument is invalid (for
317	example, @c null). When pointers representing input arguments (such
318	as strings) are invalid, E_INVALIDARG is returned.
319	</td>
320	</tr>
321	<tr><td>E_ACCESSDENIED</td>
322	<td>
323	Returned when the called object is not ready. Since the lifetime of a
324	public COM object cannot be fully controlled by the implementation,
325	VirtualBox maintains the readiness state for all objects it creates and
326	returns this code in response to any method call on the object that was
327	deactivated by VirtualBox and is not functioning any more.
328	</td>
329	</tr>
330	<tr><td>E_OUTOFMEMORY</td>
331	<td>
332	Returned when a memory allocation operation fails.

569	Virtual machine execution state.
570
571	This enumeration represents possible values of the <link
572	to="IMachine::state"/> attribute.
573
574	Below is the basic virtual machine state diagram. It shows how the state
575	changes during virtual machine execution. The text in square braces shows
576	a method of the IConsole interface that performs the given state
577	transition.
578
579	<pre>
580	+---------[powerDown()] <- Stuck <--[failure]-+
581	V \|
582	+-> PoweredOff --+-->[powerUp()]--> Starting --+ \| +-----[resume()]-----+
583	\| \| \| \| V \|
584	\| Aborted -----+ +--> Running --[pause()]--> Paused
585	\| \| ^ \| ^ \|
586	\| Saved -----------[powerUp()]--> Restoring -+ \| \| \| \|
587	\| ^ \| \| \| \|
588	\| \| +-----------------------------------------+-\|-------------------+ +
589	\| \| \| \| \|
590	\| \| +-- Saving <--------[takeSnapshot()]<-------+---------------------+
591	\| \| \| \|
592	\| +-------- Saving <--------[saveState()]<----------+---------------------+
593	\| \| \|
594	+-------------- Stopping -------[powerDown()]<----------+---------------------+
595	</pre>
596
597	Note that states to the right from PoweredOff, Aborted and Saved in the
598	above diagram are called <i>online VM states</i>. These states
599	represent the virtual machine which is being executed in a dedicated
600	process (usually with a GUI window attached to it where you can see the
601	activity of the virtual machine and interact with it). There are two
602	special pseudo-states, FirstOnline and LastOnline, that can be used in
603	relational expressions to detect if the given machine state is online or
604	not:
605
606	<pre>
607	if (machine.GetState() >= MachineState_FirstOnline &&
608	machine.GetState() <= MachineState_LastOnline)
609	{
610	...the machine is being executed...
611	}
612	</pre>
613
614	When the virtual machine is in one of the online VM states (that is, being
615	executed), only a few machine settings can be modified. Methods working
616	with such settings contain an explicit note about that. An attempt to
617	change any other setting or perform a modifying operation during this time
618	will result in the @c VBOX_E_INVALID_VM_STATE error.
619
620	All online states except Running, Paused and Stuck are transitional: they
621	represent temporary conditions of the virtual machine that will last as
622	long as the operation that initiated such a condition.
623
624	The Stuck state is a special case. It means that execution of the machine
625	has reached the "Guru Meditation" condition. This condition indicates an
626	internal VMM (virtual machine manager) failure which may happen as a
627	result of either an unhandled low-level virtual hardware exception or one
628	of the recompiler exceptions (such as the <i>too-many-traps</i>
629	condition).
630
631	Note also that any online VM state may transit to the Aborted state. This
632	happens if the process that is executing the virtual machine terminates
633	unexpectedly (for example, crashes). Other than that, the Aborted state is
634	equivalent to PoweredOff.
635
636	There are also a few additional state diagrams that do not deal with
637	virtual machine execution and therefore are shown separately. The states
638	shown on these diagrams are called <i>offline VM states</i> (this includes
639	PoweredOff, Aborted and Saved too).
640
641	The first diagram shows what happens when a lengthy setup operation is
642	being executed (such as <link to="IMachine::attachDevice"/>).
643
644	<pre>
645	+----------------------------------(same state as before the call)------+
646	\| \|
647	+-> PoweredOff --+ \|
648	\| \| \|
649	\|-> Aborted -----+-->[lengthy VM configuration call] --> SettingUp -----+
650	\| \|
651	+-> Saved -------+
652	</pre>
653
654	The next two diagrams demonstrate the process of taking a snapshot of a
655	powered off virtual machine, restoring the state to that as of a snapshot
656	or deleting a snapshot, respectively.
657
658	<pre>
659	+----------------------------------(same state as before the call)------+
660	\| \|
661	+-> PoweredOff --+ \|
662	\| +-->[takeSnapshot()] -------------------> Saving ------+
663	+-> Aborted -----+
664
665	+-> PoweredOff --+
666	\| \|
667	\| Aborted -----+-->[restoreSnapshot() ]-------> RestoringSnapshot -+
668	\| \| [deleteSnapshot() ]-------> DeletingSnapshot --+
669	+-> Saved -------+ \|
670	\| \|
671	+---(Saved if restored from an online snapshot, PoweredOff otherwise)---+
672	</pre>
673
674	Note that the Saving state is present in both the offline state group and
675	online state group. Currently, the only way to determine what group is
676	assumed in a particular case is to remember the previous machine state: if
677	it was Running or Paused, then Saving is an online state, otherwise it is
678	an offline state. This inconsistency may be removed in one of the future
679	versions of VirtualBox by adding a new state.
680
681	<note internal="yes">
682	For whoever decides to touch this enum: In order to keep the
683	comparisons involving FirstOnline and LastOnline pseudo-states valid,
684	the numeric values of these states must be correspondingly updated if
685	needed: for any online VM state, the condition
686	<tt>FirstOnline <= state <= LastOnline</tt> must be
687	@c true. The same relates to transient states for which
688	the condition <tt>FirstOnline <= state <= LastOnline</tt> must be
689	@c true.

1260	>
1261	<desc>
1262	The IVirtualBoxErrorInfo interface represents extended error information.
1263
1264	Extended error information can be set by VirtualBox components after
1265	unsuccessful or partially successful method invocation. This information
1266	can be retrieved by the calling party as an IVirtualBoxErrorInfo object
1267	and then shown to the client in addition to the plain 32-bit result code.
1268
1269	In MS COM, this interface extends the IErrorInfo interface,
1270	in XPCOM, it extends the nsIException interface. In both cases,
1271	it provides a set of common attributes to retrieve error
1272	information.
1273
1274	Sometimes invocation of some component's method may involve methods of
1275	other components that may also fail (independently of this method's
1276	failure), or a series of non-fatal errors may precede a fatal error that
1277	causes method failure. In cases like that, it may be desirable to preserve
1278	information about all errors happened during method invocation and deliver
1279	it to the caller. The <link to="#next"/> attribute is intended
1280	specifically for this purpose and allows to represent a chain of errors
1281	through a single IVirtualBoxErrorInfo object set after method invocation.
1282
1283	<note>errors are stored to a chain in the reverse order, i.e. the
1284	initial error object you query right after method invocation is the last
1285	error set by the callee, the object it points to in the @a next attribute
1286	is the previous error and so on, up to the first error (which is the last
1287	in the chain).</note>

1292	Result code of the error.
1293	Usually, it will be the same as the result code returned
1294	by the method that provided this error information, but not
1295	always. For example, on Win32, CoCreateInstance() will most
1296	likely return E_NOINTERFACE upon unsuccessful component
1297	instantiation attempt, but not the value the component factory
1298	returned. Value is typed 'long', not 'result',
1299	to make interface usable from scripting languages.

1559	The IVirtualBox interface represents the main interface exposed by the
1560	product that provides virtual machine management.
1561
1562	An instance of IVirtualBox is required for the product to do anything
1563	useful. Even though the interface does not expose this, internally,
1564	IVirtualBox is implemented as a singleton and actually lives in the
1565	process of the VirtualBox server (VBoxSVC.exe). This makes sure that
1566	IVirtualBox can track the state of all virtual machines on a particular
1567	host, regardless of which frontend started them.

1763

1765	e.g. if that client wants to pre-create the machine directory to create
1766	virtual hard disks in that directory together with the new machine
1767	settings file. In that case, the file name should be stripped from the
1768	full settings file path returned by this function to obtain the

1771
1772	See <link to="IMachine::name"/> and <link to="#createMachine"/> for more

1774
1775	@a groupName defines which additional subdirectory levels should be
1776	included. It must be either a valid group name or @c null or empty
1777	string which designates that the machine will not be related to a

1808	<method name="createMachine">
1809	<desc>
1810	Creates a new virtual machine by creating a machine settings file at
1811	the given location.
1812
1813	VirtualBox machine settings files use a custom XML dialect. Starting
1814	with VirtualBox 4.0, a ".vbox" extension is recommended, but not enforced,
1815	and machine files can be created at arbitrary locations.
1816
1817	However, it is recommended that machines are created in the default
1818	machine folder (e.g. "/home/user/VirtualBox VMs/name/name.vbox"; see
1819	<link to="ISystemProperties::defaultMachineFolder" />). If you specify
1820	@c null or empty string (which is recommended) for the @a settingsFile
1821	argument, <link to="#composeMachineFilename" /> is called automatically
1822	to have such a recommended name composed based on the machine name
1823	given in the @a name argument and the primary group.
1824
1825	If the resulting settings file already exists, this method will fail,
1826	unless the forceOverwrite flag is set.
1827
1828	The new machine is created unregistered, with the initial configuration
1829	set according to the specified guest OS type. A typical sequence of
1830	actions to create a new virtual machine is as follows:
1831
1832	<ol>
1833	<li>
1834	Call this method to have a new machine created. The returned machine
1835	object will be "mutable" allowing to change any machine property.

1838	<li>
1839	Configure the machine using the appropriate attributes and methods.
1840	</li>
1841
1842	<li>
1843	Call <link to="IMachine::saveSettings" /> to write the settings
1844	to the machine's XML settings file. The configuration of the newly
1845	created machine will not be saved to disk until this method is
1846	called.
1847	</li>
1848
1849	<li>
1850	Call <link to="#registerMachine" /> to add the machine to the list
1851	of machines known to VirtualBox.
1852	</li>

1855	The specified guest OS type identifier must match an ID of one of known
1856	guest OS types listed in the <link to="IVirtualBox::guestOSTypes"/>
1857	array.

2025	do it, and before you are able to attach the created medium to
2026	virtual machines, you must call one of the following methods to
2027	allocate a format-specific storage unit at the specified location:
2028	<ul>
2029	<li><link to="IMedium::createBaseStorage"/></li>
2030	<li><link to="IMedium::createDiffStorage"/></li>
2031	</ul>
2032
2033	Some medium attributes, such as <link to="IMedium::id"/>, may
2034	remain uninitialized until the medium storage unit is successfully
2035	created by one of the above methods.
2036
2037	After the storage unit is successfully created, it will be
2038	accessible through the <link to="#openMedium"/> method and can
2039	be found in the <link to="#hardDisks"/> array.
2040
2041	The list of all storage formats supported by this VirtualBox
2042	installation can be obtained using
2043	<link to="ISystemProperties::mediumFormats"/>. If the @a format
2044	attribute is empty or @c null then the default storage format
2045	specified by <link to="ISystemProperties::defaultHardDiskFormat"/> will
2046	be used for creating a storage unit of the medium.
2047
2048	Note that the format of the location string is storage format specific.
2049	See <link to="IMedium::location"/> and IMedium for more details.

2073
2074	<method name="openMedium">
2075	<desc>
2076	Finds existing media or opens a medium from an existing storage location.
2077
2078	Once a medium has been opened, it can be passed to other VirtualBox
2079	methods, in particular to <link to="IMachine::attachDevice" />.
2080
2081	Depending on the given device type, the file at the storage location
2082	must be in one of the media formats understood by VirtualBox:
2083
2084	<ul>
2085	<li>With a "HardDisk" device type, the file must be a hard disk image
2086	in one of the formats supported by VirtualBox (see
2087	<link to="ISystemProperties::mediumFormats" />).
2088	After this method succeeds, if the medium is a base medium, it
2089	will be added to the <link to="#hardDisks"/> array attribute. </li>
2090	<li>With a "DVD" device type, the file must be an ISO 9960 CD/DVD image.
2091	After this method succeeds, the medium will be added to the
2092	<link to="#DVDImages"/> array attribute.</li>
2093	<li>With a "Floppy" device type, the file must be an RAW floppy image.
2094	After this method succeeds, the medium will be added to the
2095	<link to="#floppyImages"/> array attribute.</li>
2096	</ul>
2097
2098	After having been opened, the medium can be re-found by this method
2099	and can be attached to virtual machines. See <link to="IMedium" /> for
2100	more details.
2101
2102	The UUID of the newly opened medium will either be retrieved from the
2103	storage location, if the format supports it (e.g. for hard disk images),
2104	or a new UUID will be randomly generated (e.g. for ISO and RAW files).
2105	If for some reason you need to change the medium's UUID, use
2106	<link to="IMedium::setIds" />.
2107
2108	If a differencing hard disk medium is to be opened by this method, the
2109	operation will succeed only if its parent medium and all ancestors,
2110	if any, are already known to this VirtualBox installation (for example,
2111	were opened by this method before).
2112
2113	This method attempts to guess the storage format of the specified medium
2114	by reading medium data at the specified location.
2115
2116	If @a accessMode is ReadWrite (which it should be for hard disks and floppies),
2117	the image is opened for read/write access and must have according permissions,
2118	as VirtualBox may actually write status information into the disk's metadata
2119	sections.
2120
2121	Note that write access is required for all typical hard disk usage in VirtualBox,
2122	since VirtualBox may need to write metadata such as a UUID into the image.
2123	The only exception is opening a source image temporarily for copying and
2124	cloning (see <link to="IMedium::cloneTo" /> when the image will be closed
2125	again soon.
2126
2127	The format of the location string is storage format specific. See

2628	<desc>
2629	Represents a platform-independent appliance in OVF format. An instance of this is returned
2630	by <link to="IVirtualBox::createAppliance" />, which can then be used to import and export
2631	virtual machines within an appliance with VirtualBox.
2632
2633	The OVF standard suggests two different physical file formats:
2634
2635	<ol>
2636	<li>If the appliance is distributed as a set of files, there must be at least one XML descriptor
2637	file that conforms to the OVF standard and carries an <tt>.ovf</tt> file extension. If
2638	this descriptor file references other files such as disk images, as OVF appliances typically
2639	do, those additional files must be in the same directory as the descriptor file.</li>
2640
2641	<li>If the appliance is distributed as a single file, it must be in TAR format and have the
2642	<tt>.ova</tt> file extension. This TAR file must then contain at least the OVF descriptor
2643	files and optionally other files.
2644
2645	At this time, VirtualBox does not not yet support the packed (TAR) variant; support will
2646	be added with a later version.</li>
2647	</ol>
2648
2649	<b>Importing</b> an OVF appliance into VirtualBox as instances of
2650	<link to="IMachine" /> involves the following sequence of API calls:
2651
2652	<ol>
2653	<li>Call <link to="IVirtualBox::createAppliance" />. This will create an empty IAppliance object.
2654	</li>
2655
2656	<li>On the new object, call <link to="#read" /> with the full path of the OVF file you
2657	would like to import. So long as this file is syntactically valid, this will succeed
2658	and fill the appliance object with the parsed data from the OVF file.
2659	</li>
2660
2661	<li>Next, call <link to="#interpret" />, which analyzes the OVF data and sets up the
2662	contents of the IAppliance attributes accordingly. These can be inspected by a
2663	VirtualBox front-end such as the GUI, and the suggestions can be displayed to the
2664	user. In particular, the <link to="#virtualSystemDescriptions" /> array contains
2665	instances of <link to="IVirtualSystemDescription" /> which represent the virtual
2666	systems (machines) in the OVF, which in turn describe the virtual hardware prescribed
2667	by the OVF (network and hardware adapters, virtual disk images, memory size and so on).
2668	The GUI can then give the user the option to confirm and/or change these suggestions.
2669	</li>
2670
2671	<li>If desired, call <link to="IVirtualSystemDescription::setFinalValues" /> for each
2672	virtual system (machine) to override the suggestions made by the <link to="#interpret" /> routine.
2673	</li>
2674
2675	<li>Finally, call <link to="#importMachines" /> to create virtual machines in
2676	VirtualBox as instances of <link to="IMachine" /> that match the information in the
2677	virtual system descriptions. After this call succeeded, the UUIDs of the machines created
2678	can be found in the <link to="#machines" /> array attribute.
2679	</li>
2680	</ol>
2681
2682	<b>Exporting</b> VirtualBox machines into an OVF appliance involves the following steps:
2683
2684	<ol>
2685	<li>As with importing, first call <link to="IVirtualBox::createAppliance" /> to create
2686	an empty IAppliance object.
2687	</li>
2688
2689	<li>For each machine you would like to export, call <link to="IMachine::exportTo" />
2690	with the IAppliance object you just created. Each such call creates one instance of
2691	<link to="IVirtualSystemDescription" /> inside the appliance.
2692	</li>
2693
2694	<li>If desired, call <link to="IVirtualSystemDescription::setFinalValues" /> for each
2695	virtual system (machine) to override the suggestions made by the <link to="IMachine::exportTo"/> routine.
2696	</li>
2697
2698	<li>Finally, call <link to="#write" /> with a path specification to have the OVF
2699	file written.</li>
2700	</ol>
2701
2702	</desc>
2703
2704	<attribute name="path" type="wstring" readonly="yes">
2705	<desc>Path to the main file of the OVF appliance, which is either the <tt>.ovf</tt> or

2965	<li>
2966	"OS": the guest operating system type. There must be exactly one such array item on import. The

2971	<li>
2972	"Name": the name to give to the new virtual machine. There can be at most one such array item;
2973	if none is present on import, then an automatic name will be created from the operating system

2991	<li>
2992	"Memory": the amount of guest RAM, in bytes. There can be at most one such array item; if none

2994	type.
2995	</li>
2996	<li>
2997	"HardDiskControllerIDE": an IDE hard disk controller. There can be at most two such items.
2998	An optional value in @a OVFValues[] and @a aVBoxValues[] can be "PIIX3" or "PIIX4" to specify
2999	the type of IDE controller; this corresponds to the ResourceSubType element which VirtualBox
3000	writes into the OVF.
3001	The matching item in the @a aRefs[] array will contain an integer that items of the "Harddisk"
3002	type can use to specify which hard disk controller a virtual disk should be connected to.
3003	Note that in OVF, an IDE controller has two channels, corresponding to "master" and "slave"
3004	in traditional terminology, whereas the IDE storage controller that VirtualBox supports in
3005	its virtual machines supports four channels (primary master, primary slave, secondary master,
3006	secondary slave) and thus maps to two IDE controllers in the OVF sense.
3007	</li>
3008	<li>
3009	"HardDiskControllerSATA": an SATA hard disk controller. There can be at most one such item. This
3010	has no value in @a OVFValues[] or @a aVBoxValues[].
3011	The matching item in the @a aRefs[] array will be used as with IDE controllers (see above).
3012	</li>
3013	<li>
3014	"HardDiskControllerSCSI": a SCSI hard disk controller. There can be at most one such item.
3015	The items in @a OVFValues[] and @a aVBoxValues[] will either be "LsiLogic", "BusLogic" or
3016	"LsiLogicSas". (Note that in OVF, the LsiLogicSas controller is treated as a SCSI controller
3017	whereas VirtualBox considers it a class of storage controllers of its own; see
3018	<link to="StorageControllerType" />).
3019	The matching item in the @a aRefs[] array will be used as with IDE controllers (see above).
3020	</li>
3021	<li>
3022	"HardDiskImage": a virtual hard disk, most probably as a reference to an image file. There can be an
3023	arbitrary number of these items, one for each virtual disk image that accompanies the OVF.
3024
3025	The array item in @a OVFValues[] will contain the file specification from the OVF file (without
3026	a path since the image file should be in the same location as the OVF file itself), whereas the
3027	item in @a aVBoxValues[] will contain a qualified path specification to where VirtualBox uses the
3028	hard disk image. This means that on import the image will be copied and converted from the
3029	"ovf" location to the "vbox" location; on export, this will be handled the other way round.
3030
3031	The matching item in the @a aExtraConfigValues[] array must contain a string of the following
3032	format: "controller=<index>;channel=<c>"
3033	In this string, <index> must be an integer specifying the hard disk controller to connect
3034	the image to. That number must be the index of an array item with one of the hard disk controller
3035	types (HardDiskControllerSCSI, HardDiskControllerSATA, HardDiskControllerIDE).
3036	In addition, <c> must specify the channel to use on that controller. For IDE controllers,
3037	this can be 0 or 1 for master or slave, respectively. For compatibility with VirtualBox versions
3038	before 3.2, the values 2 and 3 (for secondary master and secondary slave) are also supported, but
3039	no longer exported. For SATA and SCSI controllers, the channel can range from 0-29.
3040	</li>
3041	<li>
3042	"CDROM": a virtual CD-ROM drive. The matching item in @a aExtraConfigValue[] contains the same
3043	attachment information as with "HardDiskImage" items.
3044	</li>
3045	<li>
3046	"CDROM": a virtual floppy drive. The matching item in @a aExtraConfigValue[] contains the same
3047	attachment information as with "HardDiskImage" items.
3048	</li>
3049	<li>
3050	"NetworkAdapter": a network adapter. The array item in @a aVBoxValues[] will specify the hardware
3051	for the network adapter, whereas the array item in @a aExtraConfigValues[] will have a string
3052	of the "type=<X>" format, where <X> must be either "NAT" or "Bridged".
3053	</li>
3054	<li>
3055	"USBController": a USB controller. There can be at most one such item. If and only if such an
3056	item ispresent, USB support will be enabled for the new virtual machine.
3057	</li>
3058	<li>
3059	"SoundCard": a sound card. There can be at most one such item. If and only if such an item is
3060	present, sound support will be enabled for the new virtual machine. Note that the virtual
3061	machine in VirtualBox will always be presented with the standard VirtualBox soundcard, which
3062	may be different from the virtual soundcard expected by the appliance.

3953	<desc>
3954	The IMachine interface represents a virtual machine, or guest, created
3955	in VirtualBox.
3956
3957	This interface is used in two contexts. First of all, a collection of
3958	objects implementing this interface is stored in the
3959	<link to="IVirtualBox::machines"/> attribute which lists all the virtual
3960	machines that are currently registered with this VirtualBox
3961	installation. Also, once a session has been opened for the given virtual
3962	machine (e.g. the virtual machine is running), the machine object
3963	associated with the open session can be queried from the session object;
3964	see <link to="ISession"/> for details.
3965
3966	The main role of this interface is to expose the settings of the virtual
3967	machine and provide methods to change various aspects of the virtual
3968	machine's configuration. For machine objects stored in the
3969	<link to="IVirtualBox::machines"/> collection, all attributes are
3970	read-only unless explicitly stated otherwise in individual attribute
3971	and method descriptions.
3972
3973	In order to change a machine setting, a session for this machine must be
3974	opened using one of the <link to="IMachine::lockMachine" /> or
3975	<link to="IMachine::launchVMProcess"/> methods. After the
3976	machine has been successfully locked for a session, a mutable machine object
3977	needs to be queried from the session object and then the desired settings
3978	changes can be applied to the returned object using IMachine attributes and
3979	methods. See the <link to="ISession"/> interface description for more
3980	information about sessions.
3981
3982	Note that IMachine does not provide methods to control virtual machine
3983	execution (such as start the machine, or power it down) -- these methods
3984	are grouped in a separate interface called <link to="IConsole" />.

3992
3993	<attribute name="accessible" type="boolean" readonly="yes">
3994	<desc>
3995	Whether this virtual machine is currently accessible or not.
3996
3997	A machine is always deemed accessible unless it is registered <i>and</i>
3998	its settings file cannot be read or parsed (either because the file itself
3999	is unavailable or has invalid XML contents).
4000
4001	Every time this property is read, the accessibility state of
4002	this machine is re-evaluated. If the returned value is @c false,
4003	the <link to="#accessError"/> property may be used to get the
4004	detailed error information describing the reason of
4005	inaccessibility, including XML error messages.
4006
4007	When the machine is inaccessible, only the following properties
4008	can be used on it:
4009	<ul>
4010	<li><link to="#parent"/></li>
4011	<li><link to="#id"/></li>
4012	<li><link to="#settingsFilePath"/></li>
4013	<li><link to="#accessible"/></li>
4014	<li><link to="#accessError"/></li>
4015	</ul>
4016
4017	An attempt to access any other property or method will return
4018	an error.
4019
4020	The only possible action you can perform on an inaccessible
4021	machine is to unregister it using the
4022	<link to="IMachine::unregister"/> call (or, to check
4023	for the accessibility state once more by querying this
4024	property).
4025
4026	<note>
4027	In the current implementation, once this property returns
4028	@c true, the machine will never become inaccessible
4029	later, even if its settings file cannot be successfully
4030	read/written any more (at least, until the VirtualBox
4031	server is restarted). This limitation may be removed in

4051	Name of the virtual machine.
4052
4053	Besides being used for human-readable identification purposes
4054	everywhere in VirtualBox, the virtual machine name is also used
4055	as a name of the machine's settings file and as a name of the
4056	subdirectory this settings file resides in. Thus, every time you
4057	change the value of this property, the settings file will be
4058	renamed once you call <link to="#saveSettings"/> to confirm the
4059	change. The containing subdirectory will be also renamed, but
4060	only if it has exactly the same name as the settings file
4061	itself prior to changing this property (for backward compatibility
4062	with previous API releases). The above implies the following
4063	limitations:
4064	<ul>
4065	<li>The machine name cannot be empty.</li>
4066	<li>The machine name can contain only characters that are valid
4067	file name characters according to the rules of the file
4068	system used to store VirtualBox configuration.</li>
4069	<li>You cannot have two or more machines with the same name
4070	if they use the same subdirectory for storing the machine
4071	settings files.</li>
4072	<li>You cannot change the name of the machine if it is running,
4073	or if any file in the directory containing the settings file
4074	is being used by another running machine or by any other
4075	process in the host operating system at a time when
4076	<link to="#saveSettings"/> is called.
4077	</li>
4078	</ul>
4079	If any of the above limitations are hit, <link to="#saveSettings"/>
4080	will return an appropriate error message explaining the exact
4081	reason and the changes you made to this machine will not be saved.
4082
4083	Starting with VirtualBox 4.0, a ".vbox" extension of the settings

4677	<method name="lockMachine">
4678	<desc>
4679	Locks the machine for the given session to enable the caller
4680	to make changes to the machine or start the VM or control
4681	VM execution.
4682
4683	There are two ways to lock a machine for such uses:
4684
4685	<ul>
4686	<li>If you want to make changes to the machine settings,
4687	you must obtain an exclusive write lock on the machine
4688	by setting @a lockType to @c Write.
4689
4690	This will only succeed if no other process has locked
4691	the machine to prevent conflicting changes. Only after
4692	an exclusive write lock has been obtained using this method, one
4693	can change all VM settings or execute the VM in the process
4694	space of the session object. (Note that the latter is only of
4695	interest if you actually want to write a new front-end for
4696	virtual machines; but this API gets called internally by
4697	the existing front-ends such as VBoxHeadless and the VirtualBox
4698	GUI to acquire a write lock on the machine that they are running.)
4699
4700	On success, write-locking the machine for a session creates
4701	a second copy of the IMachine object. It is this second object
4702	upon which changes can be made; in VirtualBox terminology, the
4703	second copy is "mutable". It is only this second, mutable machine
4704	object upon which you can call methods that change the
4705	machine state. After having called this method, you can
4706	obtain this second, mutable machine object using the
4707	<link to="ISession::machine" /> attribute.
4708	</li>
4709	<li>If you only want to check the machine state or control
4710	machine execution without actually changing machine
4711	settings (e.g. to get access to VM statistics or take
4712	a snapshot or save the machine state), then set the
4713	@a lockType argument to @c Shared.
4714
4715	If no other session has obtained a lock, you will obtain an
4716	exclusive write lock as described above. However, if another
4717	session has already obtained such a lock, then a link to that
4718	existing session will be established which allows you
4719	to control that existing session.
4720
4721	To find out which type of lock was obtained, you can
4722	inspect <link to="ISession::type" />, which will have been
4723	set to either @c WriteLock or @c Shared.
4724	</li>
4725	</ul>
4726
4727	In either case, you can get access to the <link to="IConsole" />
4728	object which controls VM execution.
4729
4730	Also in all of the above cases, one must always call
4731	<link to="ISession::unlockMachine" /> to release the lock on the machine, or
4732	the machine's state will eventually be set to "Aborted".
4733
4734	To change settings on a machine, the following sequence is typically
4735	performed:
4736
4737	<ol>
4738	<li>Call this method to obtain an exclusive write lock for the current session.</li>
4739
4740	<li>Obtain a mutable IMachine object from <link to="ISession::machine" />.</li>
4741
4742	<li>Change the settings of the machine by invoking IMachine methods.</li>
4743
4744	<li>Call <link to="IMachine::saveSettings" />.</li>
4745
4746	<li>Release the write lock by calling <link to="ISession::unlockMachine"/>.</li>

4775
4776	<method name="launchVMProcess">
4777	<desc>
4778	Spawns a new process that will execute the virtual machine and obtains a shared
4779	lock on the machine for the calling session.
4780
4781	If launching the VM succeeds, the new VM process will create its own session
4782	and write-lock the machine for it, preventing conflicting changes from other
4783	processes. If the machine is already locked (because it is already running or
4784	because another session has a write lock), launching the VM process will therefore
4785	fail. Reversely, future attempts to obtain a write lock will also fail while the
4786	machine is running.
4787
4788	The caller's session object remains separate from the session opened by the new
4789	VM process. It receives its own <link to="IConsole" /> object which can be used
4790	to control machine execution, but it cannot be used to change all VM settings
4791	which would be available after a <link to="#lockMachine" /> call.
4792
4793	The caller must eventually release the session's shared lock by calling
4794	<link to="ISession::unlockMachine" /> on the local session object once this call
4795	has returned. However, the session's state (see <link to="ISession::state" />)
4796	will not return to "Unlocked" until the remote session has also unlocked
4797	the machine (i.e. the machine has stopped running).
4798
4799	Launching a VM process can take some time (a new VM is started in a new process,
4800	for which memory and other resources need to be set up). Because of this,
4801	an <link to="IProgress" /> object is returned to allow the caller to wait
4802	for this asynchronous operation to be completed. Until then, the caller's
4803	session object remains in the "Unlocked" state, and its <link to="ISession::machine" />
4804	and <link to="ISession::console" /> attributes cannot be accessed.
4805	It is recommended to use <link to="IProgress::waitForCompletion" /> or
4806	similar calls to wait for completion. Completion is signalled when the VM
4807	is powered on. If launching the VM fails, error messages can be queried
4808	via the progress object, if available.
4809
4810	The progress object will have at least 2 sub-operations. The first
4811	operation covers the period up to the new VM process calls powerUp.
4812	The subsequent operations mirror the <link to="IConsole::powerUp"/>
4813	progress object. Because <link to="IConsole::powerUp"/> may require
4814	some extra sub-operations, the <link to="IProgress::operationCount"/>
4815	may change at the completion of operation.
4816
4817	For details on the teleportation progress operation, see
4818	<link to="IConsole::powerUp"/>.
4819
4820	The @a environment argument is a string containing definitions of
4821	environment variables in the following format:
4822	<pre>
4823	NAME[=VALUE]\n
4824	NAME[=VALUE]\n
4825	...
4826	</pre>
4827	where <tt>\\n</tt> is the new line character. These environment
4828	variables will be appended to the environment of the VirtualBox server
4829	process. If an environment variable exists both in the server process
4830	and in this list, the value from this list takes precedence over the
4831	server's variable. If the value of the environment variable is
4832	omitted, this variable will be removed from the resulting environment.
4833	If the environment string is @c null or empty, the server environment
4834	is inherited by the started process as is.

5051	<method name="attachDeviceWithoutMedium">
5052	<desc>
5053	Attaches a device and optionally mounts a medium to the given storage
5054	controller (<link to="IStorageController" />, identified by @a name),
5055	at the indicated port and device.
5056
5057	This method is intended for managing storage devices in general while a
5058	machine is powered off. It can be used to attach and detach fixed
5059	and removable media. The following kind of media can be attached
5060	to a machine:
5061	<ul>
5062	<li>
5063	For fixed and removable media, you can pass in a medium that was
5064	previously opened using <link to="IVirtualBox::openMedium" />.
5065	</li>
5066
5067	<li>Only for storage devices supporting removable media (such as
5068	DVDs and floppies) with an empty drive or one of the medium objects listed
5069	in the <link to="IHost::DVDDrives" /> and <link to="IHost::floppyDrives"/>
5070	arrays to indicate a host drive.
5071	For removable devices, you can also use <link to="IMachine::mountMedium"/>
5072	to change the media while the machine is running.
5073	</li>
5074	</ul>
5075
5076	In a VM's default configuration of virtual machines, the secondary
5077	master of the IDE controller is used for a CD/DVD drive.
5078	<link to="IMediumAttachment"/> will appear in the machine's list of medium
5079	attachments (see <link to="IMachine::mediumAttachments"/>).
5080
5081	See <link to="IMedium"/> and <link to="IMediumAttachment"/> for more
5082	information about attaching media.
5083
5084	The specified device slot must not have a device attached to it,
5085	or this method will fail.
5086	<note>
5087	You cannot attach a device to a newly created machine until
5088	this machine's settings are saved to disk using
5089	<link to="#saveSettings"/>.
5090	</note>
5091	<note>
5092	If the medium is being attached indirectly, a new differencing medium
5093	will implicitly be created for it and attached instead. If the
5094	changes made to the machine settings (including this indirect
5095	attachment) are later cancelled using <link to="#discardSettings"/>,
5096	this implicitly created differencing medium will implicitly
5097	be deleted.

6078	<link to="IVirtualBox::registerMachine"/> and optionally do additional
6079	cleanup before the machine is unregistered.
6080
6081	This method does not delete any files. It only changes the machine configuration and
6082	the list of registered machines in the VirtualBox object. To delete the files which
6083	belonged to the machine, including the XML file of the machine itself, call
6084	<link to="#deleteConfig"/>, optionally with the array of IMedium objects which was returned
6085	from this method.
6086
6087	How thoroughly this method cleans up the machine configuration before unregistering
6088	the machine depends on the @a cleanupMode argument.
6089
6090	<ul>
6091	<li>With "UnregisterOnly", the machine will only be unregistered, but no additional
6092	cleanup will be performed. The call will fail if the machine is in "Saved" state
6093	or has any snapshots or any media attached (see <link to="IMediumAttachment" />).
6094	It is the responsibility of the caller to delete all such configuration in this mode.
6095	In this mode, the API behaves like the former @c IVirtualBox::unregisterMachine() API
6096	which it replaces.</li>
6097	<li>With "DetachAllReturnNone", the call will succeed even if the machine is in "Saved"
6098	state or if it has snapshots or media attached. All media attached to the current machine
6099	state or in snapshots will be detached. No medium objects will be returned;
6100	all of the machine's media will remain open.</li>
6101	<li>With "DetachAllReturnHardDisksOnly", the call will behave like with "DetachAllReturnNone",
6102	except that all the hard disk medium objects which were detached from the machine will
6103	be returned as an array. This allows for quickly passing them to the <link to="#deleteConfig" />
6104	API for closing and deletion.</li>
6105	<li>With "Full", the call will behave like with "DetachAllReturnHardDisksOnly", except
6106	that all media will be returned in the array, including removable media like DVDs and
6107	floppies. This might be useful if the user wants to inspect in detail which media were
6108	attached to the machine. Be careful when passing the media array to <link to="#deleteConfig" />
6109	in that case because users will typically want to preserve ISO and RAW image files.</li>
6110	</ul>
6111
6112	A typical implementation will use "DetachAllReturnHardDisksOnly" and then pass the
6113	resulting IMedium array to <link to="#deleteConfig"/>. This way, the machine is completely
6114	deleted with all its saved states and hard disk images, but images for removable
6115	drives (such as ISO and RAW files) will remain on disk.
6116
6117	This API does not verify whether the media files returned in the array are still
6118	attached to other machines (i.e. shared between several machines). If such a shared
6119	image is passed to <link to="#deleteConfig" /> however, closing the image will fail there
6120	and the image will be silently skipped.
6121
6122	This API may, however, move media from this machine's media registry to other media
6123	registries (see <link to="IMedium" /> for details on media registries). For machines
6124	created with VirtualBox 4.0 or later, if media from this machine's media registry
6125	are also attached to another machine (shared attachments), each such medium will be
6126	moved to another machine's registry. This is because without this machine's media
6127	registry, the other machine cannot find its media any more and would become inaccessible.
6128
6129	This API implicitly calls <link to="#saveSettings"/> to save all current machine settings
6130	before unregistering it. It may also silently call <link to="#saveSettings"/> on other machines
6131	if media are moved to other machines' media registries.
6132
6133	After successful method invocation, the <link to="IMachineRegisteredEvent"/> event
6134	is fired.
6135
6136	The call will fail if the machine is currently locked (see <link to="ISession" />).
6137
6138	<note>
6139	If the given machine is inaccessible (see <link to="#accessible"/>), it
6140	will be unregistered and fully uninitialized right afterwards. As a result,
6141	the returned machine object will be unusable and an attempt to call
6142	<b>any</b> method will return the "Object not ready" error.

6160	Deletes the files associated with this machine from disk. If medium objects are passed
6161	in with the @a aMedia argument, they are closed and, if closing was successful, their
6162	storage files are deleted as well. For convenience, this array of media files can be
6163	the same as the one returned from a previous <link to="#unregister" /> call.
6164
6165	This method must only be called on machines which are either write-locked (i.e. on instances
6166	returned by <link to="ISession::machine"/>) or on unregistered machines (i.e. not yet
6167	registered machines created by <link to="IVirtualBox::createMachine"/> or opened by
6168	<link to="IVirtualBox::openMachine"/>, or after having called <link to="#unregister"/>).
6169
6170	The following files will be deleted by this method:
6171	<ul>
6172	<li>If <link to="#unregister" /> had been previously called with a @a cleanupMode
6173	argument other than "UnregisterOnly", this will delete all saved state files that
6174	the machine had in use; possibly one if the machine was in "Saved" state and one
6175	for each online snapshot that the machine had.</li>
6176	<li>On each medium object passed in the @a aMedia array, this will call
6177	<link to="IMedium::close" />. If that succeeds, this will attempt to delete the
6178	medium's storage on disk. Since the <link to="IMedium::close"/> call will fail if the medium is still
6179	in use, e.g. because it is still attached to a second machine; in that case the
6180	storage will not be deleted.</li>
6181	<li>Finally, the machine's own XML file will be deleted.</li>
6182	</ul>
6183
6184	Since deleting large disk image files can be a time-consuming I/O operation, this
6185	method operates asynchronously and returns an IProgress object to allow the caller
6186	to monitor the progress. There will be one sub-operation for each file that is
6187	being deleted (saved state or medium storage file).
6188

6190	<link to="#settingsModified"/> will return @c true after this

7561
7562	The execution state and settings of the associated machine stored in
7563	the snapshot will be deleted. The contents of all differencing media of
7564	this snapshot will be merged with the contents of their dependent child
7565	media to keep the medium chain valid (in other words, all changes
7566	represented by media being deleted will be propagated to their child
7567	medium). After that, this snapshot's differencing medium will be
7568	deleted. The parent of this snapshot will become a new parent for all
7569	its child snapshots.
7570
7571	If the deleted snapshot is the current one, its parent snapshot will
7572	become a new current snapshot. The current machine state is not directly
7573	affected in this case, except that currently attached differencing
7574	media based on media of the deleted snapshot will be also merged as
7575	described above.
7576
7577	If the deleted snapshot is the first or current snapshot, then the
7578	respective IMachine attributes will be adjusted. Deleting the current
7579	snapshot will also implicitly call <link to="IMachine::saveSettings"/>
7580	to make all current machine settings permanent.
7581
7582	Deleting a snapshot has the following preconditions:
7583
7584	<ul>
7585	<li>Child media of all normal media of the deleted snapshot
7586	must be accessible (see <link to="IMedium::state"/>) for this
7587	operation to succeed. If only one running VM refers to all images
7588	which participates in merging the operation can be performed while
7589	the VM is running. Otherwise all virtual machines whose media are
7590	directly or indirectly based on the media of deleted snapshot must
7591	be powered off. In any case, online snapshot deleting usually is
7592	slower than the same operation without any running VM.</li>
7593
7594	<li>You cannot delete the snapshot if a medium attached to it has
7595	more than one child medium (differencing images) because otherwise
7596	merging would be impossible. This might be the case if there is
7597	more than one child snapshot or differencing images were created
7598	for other reason (e.g. implicitly because of multiple machine
7599	attachments).</li>
7600	</ul>
7601
7602	The virtual machine's <link to="IMachine::state">state</link> is
7603	changed to "DeletingSnapshot", "DeletingSnapshotOnline" or
7604	"DeletingSnapshotPaused" while this operation is in progress.
7605
7606	<note>
7607	Merging medium contents can be very time and disk space
7608	consuming, if these media are big in size and have many
7609	children. However, if the snapshot being deleted is the last
7610	(head) snapshot on the branch, the operation will be rather
7611	quick.

8529	Identifier of the default medium format used by VirtualBox.
8530
8531	The medium format set by this attribute is used by VirtualBox
8532	when the medium format was not specified explicitly. One example is
8533	<link to="IVirtualBox::createHardDisk"/> with the empty
8534	format argument. A more complex example is implicit creation of
8535	differencing media when taking a snapshot of a virtual machine:
8536	this operation will try to use a format of the parent medium first
8537	and if this format does not support differencing media the default
8538	format specified by this argument will be used.
8539
8540	The list of supported medium formats may be obtained by the
8541	<link to="#mediumFormats"/> call. Note that the default medium

8620
8621	The initial value of this property is <tt>"VBoxAuth"</tt>,

9732	There can be a maximum of 32 sessions at once per VM. Each session keeps
9733	track of its started guest processes, opened guest files or guest directories.
9734	To work on guest files or directories a guest session offers methods to open
9735	or create such objects (see <link to="IGuestSession::fileOpen"/> or
9736	<link to="IGuestSession::directoryOpen"/> for example).

11552	sessions, that is, sessions without specifying a valid
11553	user account on the guest are not allowed due to security reasons.
11554
11555	There can be a maximum of 32 sessions at once per VM. Each session keeps
11556	track of its started guest processes, opened guest files or guest directories.
11557	To work on guest files or directories a guest session offers methods to open
11558	or create such objects (see <link to="IGuestSession::fileOpen"/> or
11559	<link to="IGuestSession::directoryOpen"/> for example).
11560
11561	When done with either of these objects, including the guest session itself,
11562	use the appropriate close() method to let the object do its cleanup work.
11563
11564	Every guest session has its own environment variable block which gets
11565	automatically applied when starting a new guest process via
11566	<link to="IGuestSession::processCreate"/> or <link to="IGuestSession::processCreateEx"/>.
11567	To override (or unset) certain environment variables already set by the
11568	guest session, one can specify a per-process environment block when using
11569	one of the both above mentioned process creation calls.
11570
11571	Closing a session via <link to="IGuestSession::close" /> will try to close

11675	>
11676	<desc>
11677	The IProgress interface is used to track and control
11678	asynchronous tasks within VirtualBox.
11679
11680	An instance of this is returned every time VirtualBox starts
11681	an asynchronous task (in other words, a separate thread) which
11682	continues to run after a method call returns. For example,
11683	<link to="IConsole::saveState" />, which saves the state of
11684	a running virtual machine, can take a long time to complete.
11685	To be able to display a progress bar, a user interface such as
11686	the VirtualBox graphical user interface can use the IProgress
11687	object returned by that method.
11688
11689	Note that IProgress is a "read-only" interface in the sense
11690	that only the VirtualBox internals behind the Main API can
11691	create and manipulate progress objects, whereas client code
11692	can only use the IProgress object to monitor a task's
11693	progress and, if <link to="#cancelable" /> is @c true,
11694	cancel the task by calling <link to="#cancel" />.
11695
11696	A task represented by IProgress consists of either one or
11697	several sub-operations that run sequentially, one by one (see
11698	<link to="#operation" /> and <link to="#operationCount" />).
11699	Every operation is identified by a number (starting from 0)
11700	and has a separate description.
11701
11702	You can find the individual percentage of completion of the current
11703	operation in <link to="#operationPercent" /> and the
11704	percentage of completion of the task as a whole
11705	in <link to="#percent" />.
11706
11707	Similarly, you can wait for the completion of a particular
11708	operation via <link to="#waitForOperationCompletion" /> or
11709	for the completion of the whole task via
11710	<link to="#waitForCompletion" />.

11921	wsmap="managed"
11922	>
11923	<desc>
11924	The ISnapshot interface represents a snapshot of the virtual
11925	machine.
11926
11927	Together with the differencing media that are created
11928	when a snapshot is taken, a machine can be brought back to
11929	the exact state it was in when the snapshot was taken.
11930
11931	The ISnapshot interface has no methods, only attributes; snapshots
11932	are controlled through methods of the <link to="IConsole" /> interface
11933	which also manage the media associated with the snapshot.
11934	The following operations exist:
11935
11936	<ul>
11937	<li><link to="IConsole::takeSnapshot"/> creates a new snapshot
11938	by creating new, empty differencing images for the machine's
11939	media and saving the VM settings and (if the VM is running)
11940	the current VM state in the snapshot.
11941
11942	The differencing images will then receive all data written to
11943	the machine's media, while their parent (base) images
11944	remain unmodified after the snapshot has been taken (see
11945	<link to="IMedium" /> for details about differencing images).
11946	This simplifies restoring a machine to the state of a snapshot:
11947	only the differencing images need to be deleted.
11948
11949	The current machine state is not changed by taking a snapshot
11950	except that <link to="IMachine::currentSnapshot" /> is set to
11951	the newly created snapshot, which is also added to the machine's
11952	snapshots tree.
11953	</li>
11954
11955	<li><link to="IConsole::restoreSnapshot"/> resets a machine to
11956	the state of a previous snapshot by deleting the differencing
11957	image of each of the machine's media and setting the machine's
11958	settings and state to the state that was saved in the snapshot (if any).
11959
11960	This destroys the machine's current state. After calling this,
11961	<link to="IMachine::currentSnapshot" /> points to the snapshot
11962	that was restored.
11963	</li>
11964
11965	<li><link to="IConsole::deleteSnapshot"/> deletes a snapshot
11966	without affecting the current machine state.
11967
11968	This does not change the current machine state, but instead frees the
11969	resources allocated when the snapshot was taken: the settings and machine
11970	state file are deleted (if any), and the snapshot's differencing image for
11971	each of the machine's media gets merged with its parent image.
11972
11973	Neither the current machine state nor other snapshots are affected
11974	by this operation, except that parent media will be modified
11975	to contain the disk data associated with the snapshot being deleted.
11976
11977	When deleting the current snapshot, the <link to="IMachine::currentSnapshot" />
11978	attribute is set to the current snapshot's parent or @c null if it
11979	has no parent. Otherwise the attribute is unchanged.
11980	</li>
11981	</ul>
11982
11983	Each snapshot contains a copy of virtual machine's settings (hardware
11984	configuration etc.). This copy is contained in an immutable (read-only)
11985	instance of <link to="IMachine" /> which is available from the snapshot's
11986	<link to="#machine" /> attribute. When restoring the snapshot, these
11987	settings are copied back to the original machine.
11988
11989	In addition, if the machine was running when the
11990	snapshot was taken (<link to="IMachine::state"/> is <link to="MachineState_Running"/>),
11991	the current VM state is saved in the snapshot (similarly to what happens
11992	when a VM's state is saved). The snapshot is then said to be <i>online</i>
11993	because when restoring it, the VM will be running.
11994
11995	If the machine was in <link to="MachineState_Saved">saved</link> saved,
11996	the snapshot receives a copy of the execution state file
11997	(<link to="IMachine::stateFilePath"/>).
11998
11999	Otherwise, if the machine was not running (<link to="MachineState_PoweredOff"/>
12000	or <link to="MachineState_Aborted"/>), the snapshot is <i>offline</i>;
12001	it then contains a so-called "zero execution state", representing a
12002	machine that is powered off.

12251	The IMediumAttachment interface links storage media to virtual machines.
12252	For each medium (<link to="IMedium"/>) which has been attached to a
12253	storage controller (<link to="IStorageController"/>) of a machine
12254	(<link to="IMachine"/>) via the <link to="IMachine::attachDevice" />
12255	method, one instance of IMediumAttachment is added to the machine's
12256	<link to="IMachine::mediumAttachments"/> array attribute.
12257
12258	Each medium attachment specifies the storage controller as well as a
12259	port and device number and the IMedium instance representing a virtual
12260	hard disk or floppy or DVD image.
12261
12262	For removable media (DVDs or floppies), there are two additional
12263	options. For one, the IMedium instance can be @c null to represent
12264	an empty drive with no media inserted (see <link to="IMachine::mountMedium" />);
12265	secondly, the medium can be one of the pseudo-media for host drives
12266	listed in <link to="IHost::DVDDrives"/> or <link to="IHost::floppyDrives"/>.
12267
12268	<h3>Attaching Hard Disks</h3>
12269
12270	Hard disks are attached to virtual machines using the
12271	<link to="IMachine::attachDevice"/> method and detached using the
12272	<link to="IMachine::detachDevice"/> method. Depending on a medium's
12273	type (see <link to="IMedium::type" />), hard disks are attached either
12274	<i>directly</i> or <i>indirectly</i>.
12275
12276	When a hard disk is being attached directly, it is associated with the
12277	virtual machine and used for hard disk operations when the machine is
12278	running. When a hard disk is being attached indirectly, a new differencing
12279	hard disk linked to it is implicitly created and this differencing hard
12280	disk is associated with the machine and used for hard disk operations.
12281	This also means that if <link to="IMachine::attachDevice"/> performs
12282	a direct attachment then the same hard disk will be returned in response
12283	to the subsequent <link to="IMachine::getMedium"/> call; however if
12284	an indirect attachment is performed then
12285	<link to="IMachine::getMedium"/> will return the implicitly created
12286	differencing hard disk, not the original one passed to <link
12287	to="IMachine::attachDevice"/>. In detail:
12288
12289	<ul>
12290	<li><b>Normal base</b> hard disks that do not have children (i.e.
12291	differencing hard disks linked to them) and that are not already
12292	attached to virtual machines in snapshots are attached <b>directly</b>.
12293	Otherwise, they are attached <b>indirectly</b> because having
12294	dependent children or being part of the snapshot makes it impossible
12295	to modify hard disk contents without breaking the integrity of the
12296	dependent party. The <link to="IMedium::readOnly"/> attribute allows to
12297	quickly determine the kind of the attachment for the given hard
12298	disk. Note that if a normal base hard disk is to be indirectly
12299	attached to a virtual machine with snapshots then a special
12300	procedure called <i>smart attachment</i> is performed (see below).</li>
12301	<li><b>Normal differencing</b> hard disks are like normal base hard disks:
12302	they are attached <b>directly</b> if they do not have children and are
12303	not attached to virtual machines in snapshots, and <b>indirectly</b>
12304	otherwise. Note that the smart attachment procedure is never performed
12305	for differencing hard disks.</li>
12306	<li><b>Immutable</b> hard disks are always attached <b>indirectly</b> because
12307	they are designed to be non-writable. If an immutable hard disk is
12308	attached to a virtual machine with snapshots then a special
12309	procedure called smart attachment is performed (see below).</li>
12310	<li><b>Writethrough</b> hard disks are always attached <b>directly</b>,
12311	also as designed. This also means that writethrough hard disks cannot
12312	have other hard disks linked to them at all.</li>
12313	<li><b>Shareable</b> hard disks are always attached <b>directly</b>,
12314	also as designed. This also means that shareable hard disks cannot
12315	have other hard disks linked to them at all. They behave almost
12316	like writethrough hard disks, except that shareable hard disks can
12317	be attached to several virtual machines which are running, allowing
12318	concurrent accesses. You need special cluster software running in
12319	the virtual machines to make use of such disks.</li>
12320	</ul>
12321
12322	Note that the same hard disk, regardless of its type, may be attached to
12323	more than one virtual machine at a time. In this case, the machine that is
12324	started first gains exclusive access to the hard disk and attempts to
12325	start other machines having this hard disk attached will fail until the
12326	first machine is powered down.
12327
12328	Detaching hard disks is performed in a <i>deferred</i> fashion. This means
12329	that the given hard disk remains associated with the given machine after a
12330	successful <link to="IMachine::detachDevice"/> call until
12331	<link to="IMachine::saveSettings"/> is called to save all changes to
12332	machine settings to disk. This deferring is necessary to guarantee that
12333	the hard disk configuration may be restored at any time by a call to
12334	<link to="IMachine::discardSettings"/> before the settings
12335	are saved (committed).
12336
12337	Note that if <link to="IMachine::discardSettings"/> is called after
12338	indirectly attaching some hard disks to the machine but before a call to
12339	<link to="IMachine::saveSettings"/> is made, it will implicitly delete
12340	all differencing hard disks implicitly created by
12341	<link to="IMachine::attachDevice"/> for these indirect attachments.
12342	Such implicitly created hard disks will also be immediately deleted when
12343	detached explicitly using the <link to="IMachine::detachDevice"/>
12344	call if it is made before <link to="IMachine::saveSettings"/>. This
12345	implicit deletion is safe because newly created differencing hard
12346	disks do not contain any user data.
12347
12348	However, keep in mind that detaching differencing hard disks that were
12349	implicitly created by <link to="IMachine::attachDevice"/>
12350	before the last <link to="IMachine::saveSettings"/> call will
12351	<b>not</b> implicitly delete them as they may already contain some data
12352	(for example, as a result of virtual machine execution). If these hard
12353	disks are no more necessary, the caller can always delete them explicitly
12354	using <link to="IMedium::deleteStorage"/> after they are actually de-associated
12355	from this machine by the <link to="IMachine::saveSettings"/> call.
12356
12357	<h3>Smart Attachment</h3>
12358
12359	When normal base or immutable hard disks are indirectly attached to a
12360	virtual machine then some additional steps are performed to make sure the
12361	virtual machine will have the most recent "view" of the hard disk being
12362	attached. These steps include walking through the machine's snapshots
12363	starting from the current one and going through ancestors up to the first
12364	snapshot. Hard disks attached to the virtual machine in all
12365	of the encountered snapshots are checked whether they are descendants of
12366	the given normal base or immutable hard disk. The first found child (which
12367	is the differencing hard disk) will be used instead of the normal base or
12368	immutable hard disk as a parent for creating a new differencing hard disk
12369	that will be actually attached to the machine. And only if no descendants
12370	are found or if the virtual machine does not have any snapshots then the
12371	normal base or immutable hard disk will be used itself as a parent for
12372	this differencing hard disk.
12373
12374	It is easier to explain what smart attachment does using the
12375	following example:
12376	<pre>
12377	BEFORE attaching B.vdi: AFTER attaching B.vdi:
12378
12379	Snapshot 1 (B.vdi) Snapshot 1 (B.vdi)
12380	Snapshot 2 (D1->B.vdi) Snapshot 2 (D1->B.vdi)
12381	Snapshot 3 (D2->D1.vdi) Snapshot 3 (D2->D1.vdi)
12382	Snapshot 4 (none) Snapshot 4 (none)
12383	CurState (none) CurState (D3->D2.vdi)
12384
12385	NOT
12386	...
12387	CurState (D3->B.vdi)
12388	</pre>
12389	The first column is the virtual machine configuration before the base hard
12390	disk <tt>B.vdi</tt> is attached, the second column shows the machine after
12391	this hard disk is attached. Constructs like <tt>D1->B.vdi</tt> and similar
12392	mean that the hard disk that is actually attached to the machine is a
12393	differencing hard disk, <tt>D1.vdi</tt>, which is linked to (based on)
12394	another hard disk, <tt>B.vdi</tt>.
12395
12396	As we can see from the example, the hard disk <tt>B.vdi</tt> was detached
12397	from the machine before taking Snapshot 4. Later, after Snapshot 4 was
12398	taken, the user decides to attach <tt>B.vdi</tt> again. <tt>B.vdi</tt> has
12399	dependent child hard disks (<tt>D1.vdi</tt>, <tt>D2.vdi</tt>), therefore
12400	it cannot be attached directly and needs an indirect attachment (i.e.
12401	implicit creation of a new differencing hard disk). Due to the smart
12402	attachment procedure, the new differencing hard disk
12403	(<tt>D3.vdi</tt>) will be based on <tt>D2.vdi</tt>, not on
12404	<tt>B.vdi</tt> itself, since <tt>D2.vdi</tt> is the most recent view of
12405	<tt>B.vdi</tt> existing for this snapshot branch of the given virtual
12406	machine.
12407
12408	Note that if there is more than one descendant hard disk of the given base
12409	hard disk found in a snapshot, and there is an exact device, channel and
12410	bus match, then this exact match will be used. Otherwise, the youngest
12411	descendant will be picked up.
12412
12413	There is one more important aspect of the smart attachment procedure which
12414	is not related to snapshots at all. Before walking through the snapshots
12415	as described above, the backup copy of the current list of hard disk
12416	attachment is searched for descendants. This backup copy is created when
12417	the hard disk configuration is changed for the first time after the last
12418	<link to="IMachine::saveSettings"/> call and used by
12419	<link to="IMachine::discardSettings"/> to undo the recent hard disk
12420	changes. When such a descendant is found in this backup copy, it will be
12421	simply re-attached back, without creating a new differencing hard disk for
12422	it. This optimization is necessary to make it possible to re-attach the
12423	base or immutable hard disk to a different bus, channel or device slot
12424	without losing the contents of the differencing hard disk actually
12425	attached to the machine in place of it.

12488	<desc>
12489	The IMedium interface represents virtual storage for a machine's
12490	hard disks, CD/DVD or floppy drives. It will typically represent
12491	a disk image on the host, for example a VDI or VMDK file representing
12492	a virtual hard disk, or an ISO or RAW file representing virtual
12493	removable media, but can also point to a network location (e.g.
12494	for iSCSI targets).
12495
12496	Instances of IMedium are connected to virtual machines by way of medium
12497	attachments, which link the storage medium to a particular device slot
12498	of a storage controller of the virtual machine.
12499	In the VirtualBox API, virtual storage is therefore always represented
12500	by the following chain of object links:
12501
12502	<ul>
12503	<li><link to="IMachine::storageControllers"/> contains an array of
12504	storage controllers (IDE, SATA, SCSI, SAS or a floppy controller;
12505	these are instances of <link to="IStorageController"/>).</li>
12506	<li><link to="IMachine::mediumAttachments"/> contains an array of
12507	medium attachments (instances of <link to="IMediumAttachment"/>
12508	created by <link to="IMachine::attachDevice" />),
12509	each containing a storage controller from the above array, a
12510	port/device specification, and an instance of IMedium representing
12511	the medium storage (image file).
12512
12513	For removable media, the storage medium is optional; a medium
12514	attachment with no medium represents a CD/DVD or floppy drive
12515	with no medium inserted. By contrast, hard disk attachments
12516	will always have an IMedium object attached.</li>
12517	<li>Each IMedium in turn points to a storage unit (such as a file
12518	on the host computer or a network resource) that holds actual
12519	data. This location is represented by the <link to="#location"/>
12520	attribute.</li>
12521	</ul>
12522
12523	Existing media are opened using <link to="IVirtualBox::openMedium"/>;
12524	new hard disk media can be created with the VirtualBox API using the
12525	<link to="IVirtualBox::createHardDisk"/> method. Differencing hard
12526	disks (see below) are usually implicitly created by VirtualBox as
12527	needed, but may also be created explicitly using <link to="#createDiffStorage"/>.
12528	VirtualBox cannot create CD/DVD or floppy images (ISO and RAW files); these
12529	should be created with external tools and then opened from within VirtualBox.
12530
12531	Only for CD/DVDs and floppies, an IMedium instance can also represent a host
12532	drive. In that case the <link to="#id" /> attribute contains the UUID of
12533	one of the drives in <link to="IHost::DVDDrives" /> or <link to="IHost::floppyDrives" />.
12534
12535	<h3>Media registries</h3>
12536
12537	When a medium has been opened or created using one of the aforementioned
12538	APIs, it becomes "known" to VirtualBox. Known media can be attached
12539	to virtual machines and re-found through <link to="IVirtualBox::openMedium"/>.
12540	They also appear in the global
12541	<link to="IVirtualBox::hardDisks" />,
12542	<link to="IVirtualBox::DVDImages" /> and
12543	<link to="IVirtualBox::floppyImages" /> arrays.
12544
12545	Prior to VirtualBox 4.0, opening a medium added it to a global media registry
12546	in the VirtualBox.xml file, which was shared between all machines and made
12547	transporting machines and their media from one host to another difficult.
12548
12549	Starting with VirtualBox 4.0, media are only added to a registry when they are
12550	<i>attached</i> to a machine using <link to="IMachine::attachDevice" />. For
12551	backwards compatibility, which registry a medium is added to depends on which
12552	VirtualBox version created a machine:
12553
12554	<ul>
12555	<li>If the medium has first been attached to a machine which was created by
12556	VirtualBox 4.0 or later, it is added to that machine's media registry in
12557	the machine XML settings file. This way all information about a machine's
12558	media attachments is contained in a single file and can be transported
12559	easily.</li>
12560	<li>For older media attachments (i.e. if the medium was first attached to a
12561	machine which was created with a VirtualBox version before 4.0), media
12562	continue to be registered in the global VirtualBox settings file, for
12563	backwards compatibility.</li>
12564	</ul>
12565
12566	See <link to="IVirtualBox::openMedium" /> for more information.
12567
12568	Media are removed from media registries by the <link to="IMedium::close"/>,
12569	<link to="#deleteStorage"/> and <link to="#mergeTo"/> methods.
12570
12571	<h3>Accessibility checks</h3>
12572
12573	VirtualBox defers media accessibility checks until the <link to="#refreshState" />
12574	method is called explicitly on a medium. This is done to make the VirtualBox object
12575	ready for serving requests as fast as possible and let the end-user
12576	application decide if it needs to check media accessibility right away or not.
12577
12578	As a result, when VirtualBox starts up (e.g. the VirtualBox
12579	object gets created for the first time), all known media are in the
12580	"Inaccessible" state, but the value of the <link to="#lastAccessError"/>
12581	attribute is an empty string because no actual accessibility check has
12582	been made yet.
12583
12584	After calling <link to="#refreshState" />, a medium is considered
12585	<i>accessible</i> if its storage unit can be read. In that case, the
12586	<link to="#state"/> attribute has a value of "Created". If the storage
12587	unit cannot be read (for example, because it is located on a disconnected
12588	network resource, or was accidentally deleted outside VirtualBox),
12589	the medium is considered <i>inaccessible</i>, which is indicated by the
12590	"Inaccessible" state. The exact reason why the medium is inaccessible can be
12591	obtained by reading the <link to="#lastAccessError"/> attribute.
12592
12593	<h3>Medium types</h3>
12594
12595	There are five types of medium behavior which are stored in the
12596	<link to="#type"/> attribute (see <link to="MediumType" />) and
12597	which define the medium's behavior with attachments and snapshots.
12598
12599	All media can be also divided in two groups: <i>base</i> media and
12600	<i>differencing</i> media. A base medium contains all sectors of the
12601	medium data in its own storage and therefore can be used independently.
12602	In contrast, a differencing medium is a "delta" to some other medium and
12603	contains only those sectors which differ from that other medium, which is
12604	then called a <i>parent</i>. The differencing medium is said to be
12605	<i>linked to</i> that parent. The parent may be itself a differencing
12606	medium, thus forming a chain of linked media. The last element in that
12607	chain must always be a base medium. Note that several differencing
12608	media may be linked to the same parent medium.
12609
12610	Differencing media can be distinguished from base media by querying the
12611	<link to="#parent"/> attribute: base media do not have parents they would
12612	depend on, so the value of this attribute is always @c null for them.
12613	Using this attribute, it is possible to walk up the medium tree (from the
12614	child medium to its parent). It is also possible to walk down the tree
12615	using the <link to="#children"/> attribute.
12616
12617	Note that the type of all differencing media is "normal"; all other
12618	values are meaningless for them. Base media may be of any type.
12619
12620	<h3>Automatic composition of the file name part</h3>
12621
12622	Another extension to the <link to="IMedium::location"/> attribute is that
12623	there is a possibility to cause VirtualBox to compose a unique value for
12624	the file name part of the location using the UUID of the hard disk. This
12625	applies only to hard disks in <link to="MediumState_NotCreated"/> state,
12626	e.g. before the storage unit is created, and works as follows. You set the
12627	value of the <link to="IMedium::location"/> attribute to a location
12628	specification which only contains the path specification but not the file
12629	name part and ends with either a forward slash or a backslash character.
12630	In response, VirtualBox will generate a new UUID for the hard disk and

12637	is the default extension for the storage format of this hard disk. After

13005
13006	The refresh, if performed, may take a long time (several seconds or even

13061	<method name="lockRead">
13062	<desc>
13063	Locks this medium for reading.
13064
13065	A read lock is shared: many clients can simultaneously lock the
13066	same medium for reading unless it is already locked for writing (see
13067	<link to="#lockWrite"/>) in which case an error is returned.
13068
13069	When the medium is locked for reading, it cannot be modified
13070	from within VirtualBox. This means that any method that changes
13071	the properties of this medium or contents of the storage unit
13072	will return an error (unless explicitly stated otherwise). That
13073	includes an attempt to start a virtual machine that wants to
13074	write to the the medium.
13075
13076	When the virtual machine is started up, it locks for reading all
13077	media it uses in read-only mode. If some medium cannot be locked
13078	for reading, the startup procedure will fail.
13079	A medium is typically locked for reading while it is used by a running
13080	virtual machine but has a depending differencing image that receives
13081	the actual write operations. This way one base medium can have
13082	multiple child differencing images which can be written to
13083	simultaneously. Read-only media such as DVD and floppy images are
13084	also locked for reading only (so they can be in use by multiple
13085	machines simultaneously).
13086
13087	A medium is also locked for reading when it is the source of a
13088	write operation such as <link to="#cloneTo"/> or <link to="#mergeTo"/>.
13089
13090	The medium locked for reading must be unlocked using the <link
13091	to="#unlockRead"/> method. Calls to <link to="#lockRead"/>
13092	can be nested and must be followed by the same number of paired
13093	<link to="#unlockRead"/> calls.
13094
13095	This method sets the medium state (see <link to="#state"/>) to
13096	"LockedRead" on success. The medium's previous state must be
13097	one of "Created", "Inaccessible" or "LockedRead".
13098
13099	Locking an inaccessible medium is not an error; this method performs
13100	a logical lock that prevents modifications of this medium through
13101	the VirtualBox API, not a physical file-system lock of the underlying
13102	storage unit.

13141	<method name="lockWrite">
13142	<desc>
13143	Locks this medium for writing.
13144
13145	A write lock, as opposed to <link to="#lockRead"/>, is
13146	exclusive: there may be only one client holding a write lock,
13147	and there may be no read locks while the write lock is held.
13148	As a result, read-locking fails if a write lock is held, and
13149	write-locking fails if either a read or another write lock is held.
13150
13151	When a medium is locked for writing, it cannot be modified
13152	from within VirtualBox, and it is not guaranteed that the values
13153	of its properties are up-to-date. Any method that changes the
13154	properties of this medium or contents of the storage unit will
13155	return an error (unless explicitly stated otherwise).
13156
13157	When a virtual machine is started up, it locks for writing all
13158	media it uses to write data to. If any medium could not be locked
13159	for writing, the startup procedure will fail. If a medium has
13160	differencing images, then while the machine is running, only
13161	the last ("leaf") differencing image is locked for writing,
13162	whereas its parents are locked for reading only.
13163
13164	A medium is also locked for writing when it is the target of a
13165	write operation such as <link to="#cloneTo"/> or <link to="#mergeTo"/>.
13166
13167	The medium locked for writing must be unlocked using the <link

13169
13170	This method sets the medium state (see <link to="#state"/>) to
13171	"LockedWrite" on success. The medium's previous state must be

13490	<desc>
13491	Starts merging the contents of this medium and all intermediate
13492	differencing media in the chain to the given target medium.
13493
13494	The target medium must be either a descendant of this medium or
13495	its ancestor (otherwise this method will immediately return a failure).
13496	It follows that there are two logical directions of the merge operation:
13497	from ancestor to descendant (<i>forward merge</i>) and from descendant to
13498	ancestor (<i>backward merge</i>). Let us consider the following medium
13499	chain:
13500
13501	<pre>Base <- Diff_1 <- Diff_2</pre>
13502
13503	Here, calling this method on the <tt>Base</tt> medium object with
13504	<tt>Diff_2</tt> as an argument will be a forward merge; calling it on
13505	<tt>Diff_2</tt> with <tt>Base</tt> as an argument will be a backward
13506	merge. Note that in both cases the contents of the resulting medium
13507	will be the same, the only difference is the medium object that takes
13508	the result of the merge operation. In case of the forward merge in the
13509	above example, the result will be written to <tt>Diff_2</tt>; in case of
13510	the backward merge, the result will be written to <tt>Base</tt>. In
13511	other words, the result of the operation is always stored in the target
13512	medium.
13513
13514	Upon successful operation completion, the storage units of all media in
13515	the chain between this (source) medium and the target medium, including
13516	the source medium itself, will be automatically deleted and the
13517	relevant medium objects (including this medium) will become
13518	uninitialized. This means that any attempt to call any of
13519	their methods or attributes will fail with the
13520	<tt>"Object not ready" (E_ACCESSDENIED)</tt> error. Applied to the above
13521	example, the forward merge of <tt>Base</tt> to <tt>Diff_2</tt> will
13522	delete and uninitialize both <tt>Base</tt> and <tt>Diff_1</tt> media.
13523	Note that <tt>Diff_2</tt> in this case will become a base medium
13524	itself since it will no longer be based on any other medium.
13525
13526	Considering the above, all of the following conditions must be met in
13527	order for the merge operation to succeed:
13528	<ul>
13529	<li>
13530	Neither this (source) medium nor any intermediate
13531	differencing medium in the chain between it and the target
13532	medium is attached to any virtual machine.
13533	</li>
13534	<li>
13535	Neither the source medium nor the target medium is an
13536	<link to="MediumType_Immutable"/> medium.
13537	</li>
13538	<li>
13539	The part of the medium tree from the source medium to the
13540	target medium is a linear chain, i.e. all medium in this
13541	chain have exactly one child which is the next medium in this
13542	chain. The only exception from this rule is the target medium in
13543	the forward merge operation; it is allowed to have any number of
13544	child media because the merge operation will not change its
13545	logical contents (as it is seen by the guest OS or by children).
13546	</li>
13547	<li>
13548	None of the involved media are in
13549	<link to="MediumState_LockedRead"/> or
13550	<link to="MediumState_LockedWrite"/> state.
13551	</li>
13552	</ul>
13553
13554	<note>
13555	This (source) medium and all intermediates will be placed to <link
13556	to="MediumState_Deleting"/> state and the target medium will be

14380
14381	There are two modes of working with the video buffer of the virtual
14382	machine. The <i>indirect</i> mode implies that the IFramebuffer
14383	implementation allocates a memory buffer for the requested display mode
14384	and provides it to the virtual machine. In <i>direct</i> mode, the
14385	IFramebuffer implementation uses the memory buffer allocated and owned
14386	by the virtual machine. This buffer represents the video memory of the
14387	emulated video adapter (so called <i>guest VRAM</i>). The direct mode is
14388	usually faster because the implementation gets a raw pointer to the
14389	guest VRAM buffer which it can directly use for visualizing the contents
14390	of the virtual display, as opposed to the indirect mode where the
14391	contents of guest VRAM are copied to the memory buffer provided by
14392	the implementation every time a display update occurs.
14393
14394	It is important to note that the direct mode is really fast only when
14395	the implementation uses the given guest VRAM buffer directly, for
14396	example, by blitting it to the window representing the virtual machine's
14397	display, which saves at least one copy operation comparing to the
14398	indirect mode. However, using the guest VRAM buffer directly is not
14399	always possible: the format and the color depth of this buffer may be
14400	not supported by the target window, or it may be unknown (opaque) as in
14401	case of text or non-linear multi-plane VGA video modes. In this case,
14402	the indirect mode (that is always available) should be used as a
14403	fallback: when the guest VRAM contents are copied to the
14404	implementation-provided memory buffer, color and format conversion is
14405	done automatically by the underlying code.
14406
14407	The @a pixelFormat parameter defines whether the direct mode is
14408	available or not. If @a pixelFormat is <link
14409	to="FramebufferPixelFormat_Opaque"/> then direct access to the guest
14410	VRAM buffer is not available -- the @a VRAM, @a bitsPerPixel and
14411	@a bytesPerLine parameters must be ignored and the implementation must use
14412	the indirect mode (where it provides its own buffer in one of the
14413	supported formats). In all other cases, @a pixelFormat together with
14414	@a bitsPerPixel and @a bytesPerLine define the format of the video memory
14415	buffer pointed to by the @a VRAM parameter and the implementation is
14416	free to choose which mode to use. To indicate that this frame buffer uses
14417	the direct mode, the implementation of the <link to="#usesGuestVRAM"/>
14418	attribute must return @c true and <link to="#address"/> must
14419	return exactly the same address that is passed in the @a VRAM parameter
14420	of this method; otherwise it is assumed that the indirect strategy is
14421	chosen.
14422
14423	The @a width and @a height parameters represent the size of the
14424	requested display mode in both modes. In case of indirect mode, the
14425	provided memory buffer should be big enough to store data of the given
14426	display mode. In case of direct mode, it is guaranteed that the given
14427	@a VRAM buffer contains enough space to represent the display mode of the
14428	given size. Note that this frame buffer's <link to="#width"/> and <link
14429	to="#height"/> attributes must return exactly the same values as
14430	passed to this method after the resize is completed (see below).
14431
14432	The @a finished output parameter determines if the implementation has
14433	finished resizing the frame buffer or not. If, for some reason, the
14434	resize cannot be finished immediately during this call, @a finished
14435	must be set to @c false, and the implementation must call
14436	<link to="IDisplay::resizeCompleted"/> after it has returned from
14437	this method as soon as possible. If @a finished is @c false, the
14438	machine will not call any frame buffer methods until
14439	<link to="IDisplay::resizeCompleted"/> is called.
14440
14441	Note that if the direct mode is chosen, the <link to="#bitsPerPixel"/>,
14442	<link to="#bytesPerLine"/> and <link to="#pixelFormat"/> attributes of
14443	this frame buffer must return exactly the same values as specified in the
14444	parameters of this method, after the resize is completed. If the
14445	indirect mode is chosen, these attributes must return values describing
14446	the format of the implementation's own memory buffer <link
14447	to="#address"/> points to. Note also that the <link to="#bitsPerPixel"/>
14448	value must always correlate with <link to="#pixelFormat"/>. Note that
14449	the <link to="#pixelFormat"/> attribute must never return <link
14450	to="FramebufferPixelFormat_Opaque"/> regardless of the selected mode.
14451
14452	<note>
14453	This method is called by the IDisplay object under the

15293	In host pipe mode, the #path attribute specifies the path to the pipe on

15298
15299	In host device mode, the #path attribute specifies the name of the

15301
15302	There is also a third communication mode: the disconnected mode. In this

16130	<desc>
16131	The IUSBDeviceFilter interface represents an USB device filter used
16132	to perform actions on a group of USB devices.
16133
16134	This type of filters is used by running virtual machines to
16135	automatically capture selected USB devices once they are physically
16136	attached to the host computer.
16137
16138	A USB device is matched to the given device filter if and only if all
16139	attributes of the device match the corresponding attributes of the
16140	filter (that is, attributes are joined together using the logical AND
16141	operation). On the other hand, all together, filters in the list of
16142	filters carry the semantics of the logical OR operation. So if it is
16143	desirable to create a match like "this vendor id OR this product id",
16144	one needs to create two filters and specify "any match" (see below)
16145	for unused attributes.
16146
16147	All filter attributes used for matching are strings. Each string
16148	is an expression representing a set of values of the corresponding
16149	device attribute, that will match the given filter. Currently, the
16150	following filtering expressions are supported:
16151
16152	<ul>
16153	<li><i>Interval filters</i>. Used to specify valid intervals for
16154	integer device attributes (Vendor ID, Product ID and Revision).
16155	The format of the string is:
16156
16157	<tt>int:((m)\|([m]-[n]))(,(m)\|([m]-[n]))*</tt>
16158
16159	where <tt>m</tt> and <tt>n</tt> are integer numbers, either in octal
16160	(starting from <tt>0</tt>), hexadecimal (starting from <tt>0x</tt>)
16161	or decimal (otherwise) form, so that <tt>m < n</tt>. If <tt>m</tt>
16162	is omitted before a dash (<tt>-</tt>), the minimum possible integer
16163	is assumed; if <tt>n</tt> is omitted after a dash, the maximum
16164	possible integer is assumed.
16165	</li>
16166	<li><i>Boolean filters</i>. Used to specify acceptable values for
16167	boolean device attributes. The format of the string is:
16168
16169	<tt>true\|false\|yes\|no\|0\|1</tt>
16170
16171	</li>
16172	<li><i>Exact match</i>. Used to specify a single value for the given
16173	device attribute. Any string that doesn't start with <tt>int:</tt>
16174	represents the exact match. String device attributes are compared to
16175	this string including case of symbols. Integer attributes are first
16176	converted to a string (see individual filter attributes) and then
16177	compared ignoring case.
16178
16179	</li>
16180	<li><i>Any match</i>. Any value of the corresponding device attribute
16181	will match the given filter. An empty or @c null string is
16182	used to construct this type of filtering expressions.
16183
16184	</li>
16185	</ul>
16186
16187	<note>
16188	On the Windows host platform, interval filters are not currently
16189	available. Also all string filter attributes
16190	(<link to="#manufacturer"/>, <link to="#product"/>,
16191	<link to="#serialNumber"/>) are ignored, so they behave as
16192	<i>any match</i> no matter what string expression is specified.

16302	of the USB device physically attached to the host computer regarding
16303	its state on the host computer and availability to guest computers
16304	(all currently running virtual machines).
16305
16306	Once a supported USB device is attached to the host, global USB
16307	filters (<link to="IHost::USBDeviceFilters"/>) are activated. They can
16308	either ignore the device, or put it to USBDeviceState_Held state, or do
16309	nothing. Unless the device is ignored by global filters, filters of all
16310	currently running guests (<link to="IUSBController::deviceFilters"/>) are
16311	activated that can put it to USBDeviceState_Captured state.
16312
16313	If the device was ignored by global filters, or didn't match
16314	any filters at all (including guest ones), it is handled by the host
16315	in a normal way. In this case, the device state is determined by
16316	the host and can be one of USBDeviceState_Unavailable, USBDeviceState_Busy
16317	or USBDeviceState_Available, depending on the current device usage.
16318
16319	Besides auto-capturing based on filters, the device can be manually
16320	captured by guests (<link to="IConsole::attachUSBDevice"/>) if its
16321	state is USBDeviceState_Busy, USBDeviceState_Available or
16322	USBDeviceState_Held.
16323
16324	<note>
16325	Due to differences in USB stack implementations in Linux and Win32,
16326	states USBDeviceState_Busy and USBDeviceState_Unavailable are applicable
16327	only to the Linux version of the product. This also means that (<link

16329	device state is USBDeviceState_Held.

16653	<interface
16654	name="ISharedFolder" extends="$unknown"

16656	wsmap="struct"
16657	>
16658	<desc>
16659	The ISharedFolder interface represents a folder in the host computer's
16660	file system accessible from the guest OS running inside a virtual
16661	machine using an associated logical name.
16662
16663	There are three types of shared folders:
16664	<ul>
16665	<li><i>Global</i> (<link to="IVirtualBox::sharedFolders"/>), shared
16666	folders available to all virtual machines.</li>
16667	<li><i>Permanent</i> (<link to="IMachine::sharedFolders"/>),
16668	VM-specific shared folders available to the given virtual machine at
16669	startup.</li>
16670	<li><i>Transient</i> (<link to="IConsole::sharedFolders"/>),
16671	VM-specific shared folders created in the session context (for
16672	example, when the virtual machine is running) and automatically
16673	discarded when the session is closed (the VM is powered off).</li>
16674	</ul>
16675
16676	Logical names of shared folders must be unique within the given scope
16677	(global, permanent or transient). However, they do not need to be unique
16678	across scopes. In this case, the definition of the shared folder in a
16679	more specific scope takes precedence over definitions in all other
16680	scopes. The order of precedence is (more specific to more general):
16681	<ol>
16682	<li>Transient definitions</li>
16683	<li>Permanent definitions</li>
16684	<li>Global definitions</li>
16685	</ol>
16686
16687	For example, if MyMachine has a shared folder named
16688	<tt>C_DRIVE</tt> (that points to <tt>C:\\</tt>), then creating a
16689	transient shared folder named <tt>C_DRIVE</tt> (that points
16690	to <tt>C:\\\\WINDOWS</tt>) will change the definition
16691	of <tt>C_DRIVE</tt> in the guest OS so
16692	that <tt>\\\\VBOXSVR\\C_DRIVE</tt> will give access
16693	to <tt>C:\\WINDOWS</tt> instead of <tt>C:\\</tt> on the host
16694	PC. Removing the transient shared folder <tt>C_DRIVE</tt> will restore
16695	the previous (permanent) definition of <tt>C_DRIVE</tt> that points
16696	to <tt>C:\\</tt> if it still exists.
16697
16698	Note that permanent and transient shared folders of different machines
16699	are in different name spaces, so they don't overlap and don't need to
16700	have unique logical names.
16701
16702	<note>
16703	Global shared folders are not implemented in the current version of the
16704	product.

17260	>
17261	<desc>
17262	The ISession interface represents a client process and allows for locking
17263	virtual machines (represented by IMachine objects) to prevent conflicting
17264	changes to the machine.
17265
17266	Any caller wishing to manipulate a virtual machine needs to create a session
17267	object first, which lives in its own process space. Such session objects are
17268	then associated with <link to="IMachine" /> objects living in the VirtualBox
17269	server process to coordinate such changes.
17270
17271	There are two typical scenarios in which sessions are used:
17272
17273	<ul>
17274	<li>To alter machine settings or control a running virtual machine, one
17275	needs to lock a machine for a given session (client process) by calling
17276	<link to="IMachine::lockMachine"/>.
17277
17278	Whereas multiple sessions may control a running virtual machine, only
17279	one process can obtain a write lock on the machine to prevent conflicting
17280	changes. A write lock is also needed if a process wants to actually run a
17281	virtual machine in its own context, such as the VirtualBox GUI or
17282	VBoxHeadless front-ends. They must also lock a machine for their own
17283	sessions before they are allowed to power up the virtual machine.
17284
17285	As a result, no machine settings can be altered while another process is
17286	already using it, either because that process is modifying machine settings
17287	or because the machine is running.
17288	</li>
17289	<li>
17290	To start a VM using one of the existing VirtualBox front-ends (e.g. the
17291	VirtualBox GUI or VBoxHeadless), one would use
17292	<link to="IMachine::launchVMProcess"/>, which also takes a session object
17293	as its first parameter. This session then identifies the caller and lets the
17294	caller control the started machine (for example, pause machine execution or
17295	power it down) as well as be notified about machine execution state changes.
17296	</li>
17297	</ul>
17298
17299	How sessions objects are created in a client process depends on whether you use
17300	the Main API via COM or via the webservice:
17301
17302	<ul>
17303	<li>When using the COM API directly, an object of the Session class from the
17304	VirtualBox type library needs to be created. In regular COM C++ client code,
17305	this can be done by calling <tt>createLocalObject()</tt>, a standard COM API.
17306	This object will then act as a local session object in further calls to open
17307	a session.
17308	</li>
17309
17310	<li>In the webservice, the session manager (IWebsessionManager) instead creates
17311	a session object automatically whenever <link to="IWebsessionManager::logon" />
17312	is called. A managed object reference to that session object can be retrieved by
17313	calling <link to="IWebsessionManager::getSessionObject" />.
17314	</li>
17315	</ul>

17342	Calling this method is required every time a machine has been locked
17343	for a particular session using the <link to="IMachine::launchVMProcess" />
17344	or <link to="IMachine::lockMachine" /> calls. Otherwise the state of
17345	the machine will be set to <link to="MachineState_Aborted" /> on the
17346	server, and changes made to the machine settings will be lost.
17347
17348	Generally, it is recommended to unlock all machines explicitly
17349	before terminating the application (regardless of the reason for
17350	the termination).
17351
17352	<note>
17353	Do not expect the session state (<link to="ISession::state" />
17354	to return to "Unlocked" immediately after you invoke this method,
17355	particularly if you have started a new VM process. The session
17356	state will automatically return to "Unlocked" once the VM is no

17732	<desc>
17733	The IPerformanceCollector interface represents a service that collects
17734	and stores performance metrics data.
17735
17736	Performance metrics are associated with objects of interfaces like IHost
17737	and IMachine. Each object has a distinct set of performance metrics. The
17738	set can be obtained with <link to="IPerformanceCollector::getMetrics"/>.
17739
17740	Metric data is collected at the specified intervals and is retained
17741	internally. The interval and the number of retained samples can be set
17742	with <link to="IPerformanceCollector::setupMetrics" />. Both metric data
17743	and collection settings are not persistent, they are discarded as soon as
17744	VBoxSVC process terminates. Moreover, metric settings and data associated
17745	with a particular VM only exist while VM is running. They disappear as
17746	soon as VM shuts down. It is not possible to set up metrics for machines
17747	that are powered off. One needs to start VM first, then set up metric
17748	collection parameters.
17749
17750	Metrics are organized hierarchically, with each level separated by a
17751	slash (/) character. Generally, the scheme for metric names is like this:
17752
17753	<tt>Category/Metric[/SubMetric][:aggregation]</tt>
17754
17755	"Category/Metric" together form the base metric name. A base metric is
17756	the smallest unit for which a sampling interval and the number of
17757	retained samples can be set. Only base metrics can be enabled and
17758	disabled. All sub-metrics are collected when their base metric is
17759	collected. Collected values for any set of sub-metrics can be queried
17760	with <link to="IPerformanceCollector::queryMetricsData" />.
17761
17762	For example "CPU/Load/User:avg" metric name stands for the "CPU"
17763	category, "Load" metric, "User" submetric, "average" aggregate. An
17764	aggregate function is computed over all retained data. Valid aggregate
17765	functions are:
17766
17767	<ul>
17768	<li>avg -- average</li>
17769	<li>min -- minimum</li>
17770	<li>max -- maximum</li>
17771	</ul>
17772
17773	When setting up metric parameters, querying metric data, enabling or
17774	disabling metrics wildcards can be used in metric names to specify a
17775	subset of metrics. For example, to select all CPU-related metrics
17776	use <tt>CPU/</tt>, all averages can be queried using <tt>:avg</tt> and
17777	so on. To query metric values without aggregates <tt>*:</tt> can be used.
17778
17779	The valid names for base metrics are:
17780
17781	<ul>
17782	<li>CPU/Load</li>
17783	<li>CPU/MHz</li>
17784	<li>RAM/Usage</li>
17785	<li>RAM/VMM</li>
17786	</ul>
17787
17788	The general sequence for collecting and retrieving the metrics is:
17789	<ul>
17790	<li>
17791	Obtain an instance of IPerformanceCollector with
17792	<link to="IVirtualBox::performanceCollector" />
17793	</li>
17794	<li>
17795	Allocate and populate an array with references to objects the metrics
17796	will be collected for. Use references to IHost and IMachine objects.
17797	</li>
17798	<li>
17799	Allocate and populate an array with base metric names the data will
17800	be collected for.
17801	</li>
17802	<li>
17803	Call <link to="IPerformanceCollector::setupMetrics" />. From now on
17804	the metric data will be collected and stored.
17805	</li>
17806	<li>
17807	Wait for the data to get collected.
17808	</li>
17809	<li>
17810	Allocate and populate an array with references to objects the metric
17811	values will be queried for. You can re-use the object array used for
17812	setting base metrics.
17813	</li>
17814	<li>
17815	Allocate and populate an array with metric names the data will be
17816	collected for. Note that metric names differ from base metric names.
17817	</li>
17818	<li>
17819	Call <link to="IPerformanceCollector::queryMetricsData" />. The data
17820	that have been collected so far are returned. Note that the values
17821	are still retained internally and data collection continues.

19247	Abstract parent interface for VirtualBox events. Actual events will typically implement
19248	a more specific interface which derives from this (see below).
19249
19250	<b>Introduction to VirtualBox events</b>
19251
19252	Generally speaking, an event (represented by this interface) signals that something
19253	happened, while an event listener (see <link to="IEventListener" />) represents an
19254	entity that is interested in certain events. In order for this to work with
19255	unidirectional protocols (i.e. web services), the concepts of passive and active
19256	listener are used.
19257
19258	Event consumers can register themselves as listeners, providing an array of
19259	events they are interested in (see <link to="IEventSource::registerListener" />).
19260	When an event triggers, the listener is notified about the event. The exact
19261	mechanism of the notification depends on whether the listener was registered as
19262	an active or passive listener:
19263
19264	<ul>
19265	<li>An active listener is very similar to a callback: it is a function invoked
19266	by the API. As opposed to the callbacks that were used in the API before
19267	VirtualBox 4.0 however, events are now objects with an interface hierarchy.
19268	</li>
19269
19270	<li>Passive listeners are somewhat trickier to implement, but do not require
19271	a client function to be callable, which is not an option with scripting
19272	languages or web service clients. Internally the <link to="IEventSource" />
19273	implementation maintains an event queue for each passive listener, and
19274	newly arrived events are put in this queue. When the listener calls
19275	<link to="IEventSource::getEvent"/>, first element from its internal event
19276	queue is returned. When the client completes processing of an event,
19277	the <link to="IEventSource::eventProcessed" /> function must be called,
19278	acknowledging that the event was processed. It supports implementing
19279	waitable events. On passive listener unregistration, all events from its
19280	queue are auto-acknowledged.
19281	</li>
19282	</ul>
19283
19284	Waitable events are useful in situations where the event generator wants to track
19285	delivery or a party wants to wait until all listeners have completed the event. A
19286	typical example would be a vetoable event (see <link to="IVetoEvent" />) where a
19287	listeners might veto a certain action, and thus the event producer has to make
19288	sure that all listeners have processed the event and not vetoed before taking
19289	the action.
19290
19291	A given event may have both passive and active listeners at the same time.
19292
19293	<b>Using events</b>
19294
19295	Any VirtualBox object capable of producing externally visible events provides an
19296	@c eventSource read-only attribute, which is of the type <link to="IEventSource" />.
19297	This event source object is notified by VirtualBox once something has happened, so
19298	consumers may register event listeners with this event source. To register a listener,
19299	an object implementing the <link to="IEventListener" /> interface must be provided.
19300	For active listeners, such an object is typically created by the consumer, while for
19301	passive listeners <link to="IEventSource::createListener" /> should be used. Please
19302	note that a listener created with <link to="IEventSource::createListener"/> must not be used as an active listener.
19303
19304	Once created, the listener must be registered to listen for the desired events
19305	(see <link to="IEventSource::registerListener" />), providing an array of
19306	<link to="VBoxEventType" /> enums. Those elements can either be the individual
19307	event IDs or wildcards matching multiple event IDs.
19308
19309	After registration, the callback's <link to="IEventListener::handleEvent" /> method is
19310	called automatically when the event is triggered, while passive listeners have to call
19311	<link to="IEventSource::getEvent" /> and <link to="IEventSource::eventProcessed" /> in
19312	an event processing loop.
19313
19314	The IEvent interface is an abstract parent interface for all such VirtualBox events
19315	coming in. As a result, the standard use pattern inside <link to="IEventListener::handleEvent" />
19316	or the event processing loop is to check the <link to="#type" /> attribute of the event and
19317	then cast to the appropriate specific interface using @c QueryInterface().

19336	as no additional overhead associated with waitability imposed.
19337	Waitable events are needed when one need to be able to wait for particular event processed,

19615
19616	The @a shape buffer contains a 1-bpp (bits per pixel) AND mask
19617	followed by a 32-bpp XOR (color) mask.
19618
19619	For pointers without alpha channel the XOR mask pixels are 32
19620	bit values: (lsb)BGR0(msb). For pointers with alpha channel
19621	the XOR mask consists of (lsb)BGRA(msb) 32 bit values.
19622
19623	An AND mask is used for pointers with alpha channel, so if the
19624	callback does not support alpha, the pointer could be
19625	displayed as a normal color pointer.
19626
19627	The AND mask is a 1-bpp bitmap with byte aligned scanlines. The
19628	size of the AND mask therefore is <tt>cbAnd = (width + 7) / 8 *
19629	height</tt>. The padding bits at the end of each scanline are
19630	undefined.
19631
19632	The XOR mask follows the AND mask on the next 4-byte aligned
19633	offset: <tt>uint8_t *pXor = pAnd + (cbAnd + 3) & ~3</tt>.
19634	Bytes in the gap between the AND and the XOR mask are undefined.
19635	The XOR mask scanlines have no gap between them and the size of
19636	the XOR mask is: <tt>cXor = width * 4 * height</tt>.

20342	<desc>
20343	Notification when an error happens during the virtual
20344	machine execution.
20345
20346	There are three kinds of runtime errors:
20347	<ul>
20348	<li><i>fatal</i></li>
20349	<li><i>non-fatal with retry</i></li>
20350	<li><i>non-fatal warnings</i></li>
20351	</ul>
20352
20353	<b>Fatal</b> errors are indicated by the @a fatal parameter set
20354	to @c true. In case of fatal errors, the virtual machine
20355	execution is always paused before calling this notification, and
20356	the notification handler is supposed either to immediately save
20357	the virtual machine state using <link to="IConsole::saveState"/>
20358	or power it off using <link to="IConsole::powerDown"/>.
20359	Resuming the execution can lead to unpredictable results.
20360
20361	<b>Non-fatal</b> errors and warnings are indicated by the
20362	@a fatal parameter set to @c false. If the virtual machine
20363	is in the Paused state by the time the error notification is
20364	received, it means that the user can <i>try to resume</i> the machine
20365	execution after attempting to solve the problem that caused the
20366	error. In this case, the notification handler is supposed
20367	to show an appropriate message to the user (depending on the
20368	value of the @a id parameter) that offers several actions such
20369	as <i>Retry</i>, <i>Save</i> or <i>Power Off</i>. If the user
20370	wants to retry, the notification handler should continue
20371	the machine execution using the <link to="IConsole::resume"/>
20372	call. If the machine execution is not Paused during this
20373	notification, then it means this notification is a <i>warning</i>
20374	(for example, about a fatal condition that can happen very soon);
20375	no immediate action is required from the user, the machine
20376	continues its normal execution.
20377
20378	Note that in either case the notification handler
20379	<b>must not</b> perform any action directly on a thread
20380	where this notification is called. Everything it is allowed to
20381	do is to post a message to another thread that will then talk
20382	to the user and take the corresponding action.
20383
20384	Currently, the following error identifiers are known:
20385	<ul>
20386	<li><tt>"HostMemoryLow"</tt></li>
20387	<li><tt>"HostAudioNotResponding"</tt></li>
