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>,

9726	A guest session represents one impersonated user account on the guest, so
9727	every operation will use the same credentials specified when creating
9728	the session object via <link to="IGuest::createSession"/>.
9729
9730	There can be a maximum of 32 sessions at once per VM. Each session keeps
9731	track of its started guest processes, opened guest files or guest directories.
9732	To work on guest files or directories a guest session offers methods to open
9733	or create such objects (see <link to="IGuestSession::fileOpen"/> or
9734	<link to="IGuestSession::directoryOpen"/> for example).
9735
9736	When done with either of these objects, including the guest session itself,
9737	use the appropriate close() method to let the object do its cleanup work.
9738
9739	Every guest session has its own environment variable block which gets
9740	automatically applied when starting a new guest process via

11545	Creates a new guest session for controlling the guest.

11550	sessions, that is, sessions without specifying a valid
11551	user account on the guest are not allowed due to security reasons.
11552
11553	There can be a maximum of 32 sessions at once per VM. Each session keeps
11554	track of its started guest processes, opened guest files or guest directories.
11555	To work on guest files or directories a guest session offers methods to open
11556	or create such objects (see <link to="IGuestSession::fileOpen"/> or
11557	<link to="IGuestSession::directoryOpen"/> for example).
11558
11559	When done with either of these objects, including the guest session itself,
11560	use the appropriate close() method to let the object do its cleanup work.
11561
11562	Every guest session has its own environment variable block which gets
11563	automatically applied when starting a new guest process via
11564	<link to="IGuestSession::processCreate"/> or <link to="IGuestSession::processCreateEx"/>.
11565	To override (or unset) certain environment variables already set by the
11566	guest session, one can specify a per-process environment block when using
11567	one of the both above mentioned process creation calls.
11568
11569	Closing a session via <link to="IGuestSession::close" /> will try to close

11673	>
11674	<desc>
11675	The IProgress interface is used to track and control
11676	asynchronous tasks within VirtualBox.
11677
11678	An instance of this is returned every time VirtualBox starts
11679	an asynchronous task (in other words, a separate thread) which
11680	continues to run after a method call returns. For example,
11681	<link to="IConsole::saveState" />, which saves the state of
11682	a running virtual machine, can take a long time to complete.
11683	To be able to display a progress bar, a user interface such as
11684	the VirtualBox graphical user interface can use the IProgress
11685	object returned by that method.
11686
11687	Note that IProgress is a "read-only" interface in the sense
11688	that only the VirtualBox internals behind the Main API can
11689	create and manipulate progress objects, whereas client code
11690	can only use the IProgress object to monitor a task's
11691	progress and, if <link to="#cancelable" /> is @c true,
11692	cancel the task by calling <link to="#cancel" />.
11693
11694	A task represented by IProgress consists of either one or
11695	several sub-operations that run sequentially, one by one (see
11696	<link to="#operation" /> and <link to="#operationCount" />).
11697	Every operation is identified by a number (starting from 0)
11698	and has a separate description.
11699
11700	You can find the individual percentage of completion of the current
11701	operation in <link to="#operationPercent" /> and the
11702	percentage of completion of the task as a whole
11703	in <link to="#percent" />.
11704
11705	Similarly, you can wait for the completion of a particular
11706	operation via <link to="#waitForOperationCompletion" /> or
11707	for the completion of the whole task via
11708	<link to="#waitForCompletion" />.

11917	name="ISnapshot" extends="$unknown"
11918	uuid="0472823b-c6e7-472a-8e9f-d732e86b8463"
11919	wsmap="managed"
11920	>
11921	<desc>
11922	The ISnapshot interface represents a snapshot of the virtual
11923	machine.
11924
11925	Together with the differencing media that are created
11926	when a snapshot is taken, a machine can be brought back to
11927	the exact state it was in when the snapshot was taken.
11928
11929	The ISnapshot interface has no methods, only attributes; snapshots
11930	are controlled through methods of the <link to="IConsole" /> interface
11931	which also manage the media associated with the snapshot.
11932	The following operations exist:
11933
11934	<ul>
11935	<li><link to="IConsole::takeSnapshot"/> creates a new snapshot
11936	by creating new, empty differencing images for the machine's
11937	media and saving the VM settings and (if the VM is running)
11938	the current VM state in the snapshot.
11939
11940	The differencing images will then receive all data written to
11941	the machine's media, while their parent (base) images
11942	remain unmodified after the snapshot has been taken (see
11943	<link to="IMedium" /> for details about differencing images).
11944	This simplifies restoring a machine to the state of a snapshot:
11945	only the differencing images need to be deleted.
11946
11947	The current machine state is not changed by taking a snapshot
11948	except that <link to="IMachine::currentSnapshot" /> is set to
11949	the newly created snapshot, which is also added to the machine's
11950	snapshots tree.
11951	</li>
11952
11953	<li><link to="IConsole::restoreSnapshot"/> resets a machine to
11954	the state of a previous snapshot by deleting the differencing
11955	image of each of the machine's media and setting the machine's
11956	settings and state to the state that was saved in the snapshot (if any).
11957
11958	This destroys the machine's current state. After calling this,
11959	<link to="IMachine::currentSnapshot" /> points to the snapshot
11960	that was restored.
11961	</li>
11962
11963	<li><link to="IConsole::deleteSnapshot"/> deletes a snapshot
11964	without affecting the current machine state.
11965
11966	This does not change the current machine state, but instead frees the
11967	resources allocated when the snapshot was taken: the settings and machine
11968	state file are deleted (if any), and the snapshot's differencing image for
11969	each of the machine's media gets merged with its parent image.
11970
11971	Neither the current machine state nor other snapshots are affected
11972	by this operation, except that parent media will be modified
11973	to contain the disk data associated with the snapshot being deleted.
11974
11975	When deleting the current snapshot, the <link to="IMachine::currentSnapshot" />
11976	attribute is set to the current snapshot's parent or @c null if it
11977	has no parent. Otherwise the attribute is unchanged.
11978	</li>
11979	</ul>
11980
11981	Each snapshot contains a copy of virtual machine's settings (hardware
11982	configuration etc.). This copy is contained in an immutable (read-only)
11983	instance of <link to="IMachine" /> which is available from the snapshot's
11984	<link to="#machine" /> attribute. When restoring the snapshot, these
11985	settings are copied back to the original machine.
11986
11987	In addition, if the machine was running when the
11988	snapshot was taken (<link to="IMachine::state"/> is <link to="MachineState_Running"/>),
11989	the current VM state is saved in the snapshot (similarly to what happens
11990	when a VM's state is saved). The snapshot is then said to be <i>online</i>
11991	because when restoring it, the VM will be running.
11992
11993	If the machine was in <link to="MachineState_Saved">saved</link> saved,
11994	the snapshot receives a copy of the execution state file
11995	(<link to="IMachine::stateFilePath"/>).
11996
11997	Otherwise, if the machine was not running (<link to="MachineState_PoweredOff"/>
11998	or <link to="MachineState_Aborted"/>), the snapshot is <i>offline</i>;
11999	it then contains a so-called "zero execution state", representing a
12000	machine that is powered off.

12249	The IMediumAttachment interface links storage media to virtual machines.
12250	For each medium (<link to="IMedium"/>) which has been attached to a
12251	storage controller (<link to="IStorageController"/>) of a machine
12252	(<link to="IMachine"/>) via the <link to="IMachine::attachDevice" />
12253	method, one instance of IMediumAttachment is added to the machine's
12254	<link to="IMachine::mediumAttachments"/> array attribute.
12255
12256	Each medium attachment specifies the storage controller as well as a
12257	port and device number and the IMedium instance representing a virtual
12258	hard disk or floppy or DVD image.
12259
12260	For removable media (DVDs or floppies), there are two additional
12261	options. For one, the IMedium instance can be @c null to represent
12262	an empty drive with no media inserted (see <link to="IMachine::mountMedium" />);
12263	secondly, the medium can be one of the pseudo-media for host drives
12264	listed in <link to="IHost::DVDDrives"/> or <link to="IHost::floppyDrives"/>.
12265
12266	<h3>Attaching Hard Disks</h3>
12267
12268	Hard disks are attached to virtual machines using the
12269	<link to="IMachine::attachDevice"/> method and detached using the
12270	<link to="IMachine::detachDevice"/> method. Depending on a medium's
12271	type (see <link to="IMedium::type" />), hard disks are attached either
12272	<i>directly</i> or <i>indirectly</i>.
12273
12274	When a hard disk is being attached directly, it is associated with the
12275	virtual machine and used for hard disk operations when the machine is
12276	running. When a hard disk is being attached indirectly, a new differencing
12277	hard disk linked to it is implicitly created and this differencing hard
12278	disk is associated with the machine and used for hard disk operations.
12279	This also means that if <link to="IMachine::attachDevice"/> performs
12280	a direct attachment then the same hard disk will be returned in response
12281	to the subsequent <link to="IMachine::getMedium"/> call; however if
12282	an indirect attachment is performed then
12283	<link to="IMachine::getMedium"/> will return the implicitly created
12284	differencing hard disk, not the original one passed to <link
12285	to="IMachine::attachDevice"/>. In detail:
12286
12287	<ul>
12288	<li><b>Normal base</b> hard disks that do not have children (i.e.
12289	differencing hard disks linked to them) and that are not already
12290	attached to virtual machines in snapshots are attached <b>directly</b>.
12291	Otherwise, they are attached <b>indirectly</b> because having
12292	dependent children or being part of the snapshot makes it impossible
12293	to modify hard disk contents without breaking the integrity of the
12294	dependent party. The <link to="IMedium::readOnly"/> attribute allows to
12295	quickly determine the kind of the attachment for the given hard
12296	disk. Note that if a normal base hard disk is to be indirectly
12297	attached to a virtual machine with snapshots then a special
12298	procedure called <i>smart attachment</i> is performed (see below).</li>
12299	<li><b>Normal differencing</b> hard disks are like normal base hard disks:
12300	they are attached <b>directly</b> if they do not have children and are
12301	not attached to virtual machines in snapshots, and <b>indirectly</b>
12302	otherwise. Note that the smart attachment procedure is never performed
12303	for differencing hard disks.</li>
12304	<li><b>Immutable</b> hard disks are always attached <b>indirectly</b> because
12305	they are designed to be non-writable. If an immutable hard disk is
12306	attached to a virtual machine with snapshots then a special
12307	procedure called smart attachment is performed (see below).</li>
12308	<li><b>Writethrough</b> hard disks are always attached <b>directly</b>,
12309	also as designed. This also means that writethrough hard disks cannot
12310	have other hard disks linked to them at all.</li>
12311	<li><b>Shareable</b> hard disks are always attached <b>directly</b>,
12312	also as designed. This also means that shareable hard disks cannot
12313	have other hard disks linked to them at all. They behave almost
12314	like writethrough hard disks, except that shareable hard disks can
12315	be attached to several virtual machines which are running, allowing
12316	concurrent accesses. You need special cluster software running in
12317	the virtual machines to make use of such disks.</li>
12318	</ul>
12319
12320	Note that the same hard disk, regardless of its type, may be attached to
12321	more than one virtual machine at a time. In this case, the machine that is
12322	started first gains exclusive access to the hard disk and attempts to
12323	start other machines having this hard disk attached will fail until the
12324	first machine is powered down.
12325
12326	Detaching hard disks is performed in a <i>deferred</i> fashion. This means
12327	that the given hard disk remains associated with the given machine after a
12328	successful <link to="IMachine::detachDevice"/> call until
12329	<link to="IMachine::saveSettings"/> is called to save all changes to
12330	machine settings to disk. This deferring is necessary to guarantee that
12331	the hard disk configuration may be restored at any time by a call to
12332	<link to="IMachine::discardSettings"/> before the settings
12333	are saved (committed).
12334
12335	Note that if <link to="IMachine::discardSettings"/> is called after
12336	indirectly attaching some hard disks to the machine but before a call to
12337	<link to="IMachine::saveSettings"/> is made, it will implicitly delete
12338	all differencing hard disks implicitly created by
12339	<link to="IMachine::attachDevice"/> for these indirect attachments.
12340	Such implicitly created hard disks will also be immediately deleted when
12341	detached explicitly using the <link to="IMachine::detachDevice"/>
12342	call if it is made before <link to="IMachine::saveSettings"/>. This
12343	implicit deletion is safe because newly created differencing hard
12344	disks do not contain any user data.
12345
12346	However, keep in mind that detaching differencing hard disks that were
12347	implicitly created by <link to="IMachine::attachDevice"/>
12348	before the last <link to="IMachine::saveSettings"/> call will
12349	<b>not</b> implicitly delete them as they may already contain some data
12350	(for example, as a result of virtual machine execution). If these hard
12351	disks are no more necessary, the caller can always delete them explicitly
12352	using <link to="IMedium::deleteStorage"/> after they are actually de-associated
12353	from this machine by the <link to="IMachine::saveSettings"/> call.
12354
12355	<h3>Smart Attachment</h3>
12356
12357	When normal base or immutable hard disks are indirectly attached to a
12358	virtual machine then some additional steps are performed to make sure the
12359	virtual machine will have the most recent "view" of the hard disk being
12360	attached. These steps include walking through the machine's snapshots
12361	starting from the current one and going through ancestors up to the first
12362	snapshot. Hard disks attached to the virtual machine in all
12363	of the encountered snapshots are checked whether they are descendants of
12364	the given normal base or immutable hard disk. The first found child (which
12365	is the differencing hard disk) will be used instead of the normal base or
12366	immutable hard disk as a parent for creating a new differencing hard disk
12367	that will be actually attached to the machine. And only if no descendants
12368	are found or if the virtual machine does not have any snapshots then the
12369	normal base or immutable hard disk will be used itself as a parent for
12370	this differencing hard disk.
12371
12372	It is easier to explain what smart attachment does using the
12373	following example:
12374	<pre>
12375	BEFORE attaching B.vdi: AFTER attaching B.vdi:
12376
12377	Snapshot 1 (B.vdi) Snapshot 1 (B.vdi)
12378	Snapshot 2 (D1->B.vdi) Snapshot 2 (D1->B.vdi)
12379	Snapshot 3 (D2->D1.vdi) Snapshot 3 (D2->D1.vdi)
12380	Snapshot 4 (none) Snapshot 4 (none)
12381	CurState (none) CurState (D3->D2.vdi)
12382
12383	NOT
12384	...
12385	CurState (D3->B.vdi)
12386	</pre>
12387	The first column is the virtual machine configuration before the base hard
12388	disk <tt>B.vdi</tt> is attached, the second column shows the machine after
12389	this hard disk is attached. Constructs like <tt>D1->B.vdi</tt> and similar
12390	mean that the hard disk that is actually attached to the machine is a
12391	differencing hard disk, <tt>D1.vdi</tt>, which is linked to (based on)
12392	another hard disk, <tt>B.vdi</tt>.
12393
12394	As we can see from the example, the hard disk <tt>B.vdi</tt> was detached
12395	from the machine before taking Snapshot 4. Later, after Snapshot 4 was
12396	taken, the user decides to attach <tt>B.vdi</tt> again. <tt>B.vdi</tt> has
12397	dependent child hard disks (<tt>D1.vdi</tt>, <tt>D2.vdi</tt>), therefore
12398	it cannot be attached directly and needs an indirect attachment (i.e.
12399	implicit creation of a new differencing hard disk). Due to the smart
12400	attachment procedure, the new differencing hard disk
12401	(<tt>D3.vdi</tt>) will be based on <tt>D2.vdi</tt>, not on
12402	<tt>B.vdi</tt> itself, since <tt>D2.vdi</tt> is the most recent view of
12403	<tt>B.vdi</tt> existing for this snapshot branch of the given virtual
12404	machine.
12405
12406	Note that if there is more than one descendant hard disk of the given base
12407	hard disk found in a snapshot, and there is an exact device, channel and
12408	bus match, then this exact match will be used. Otherwise, the youngest
12409	descendant will be picked up.
12410
12411	There is one more important aspect of the smart attachment procedure which
12412	is not related to snapshots at all. Before walking through the snapshots
12413	as described above, the backup copy of the current list of hard disk
12414	attachment is searched for descendants. This backup copy is created when
12415	the hard disk configuration is changed for the first time after the last
12416	<link to="IMachine::saveSettings"/> call and used by
12417	<link to="IMachine::discardSettings"/> to undo the recent hard disk
12418	changes. When such a descendant is found in this backup copy, it will be
12419	simply re-attached back, without creating a new differencing hard disk for
12420	it. This optimization is necessary to make it possible to re-attach the
12421	base or immutable hard disk to a different bus, channel or device slot
12422	without losing the contents of the differencing hard disk actually
12423	attached to the machine in place of it.

12486	<desc>
12487	The IMedium interface represents virtual storage for a machine's
12488	hard disks, CD/DVD or floppy drives. It will typically represent
12489	a disk image on the host, for example a VDI or VMDK file representing
12490	a virtual hard disk, or an ISO or RAW file representing virtual
12491	removable media, but can also point to a network location (e.g.
12492	for iSCSI targets).
12493
12494	Instances of IMedium are connected to virtual machines by way of medium
12495	attachments, which link the storage medium to a particular device slot
12496	of a storage controller of the virtual machine.
12497	In the VirtualBox API, virtual storage is therefore always represented
12498	by the following chain of object links:
12499
12500	<ul>
12501	<li><link to="IMachine::storageControllers"/> contains an array of
12502	storage controllers (IDE, SATA, SCSI, SAS or a floppy controller;
12503	these are instances of <link to="IStorageController"/>).</li>
12504	<li><link to="IMachine::mediumAttachments"/> contains an array of
12505	medium attachments (instances of <link to="IMediumAttachment"/>
12506	created by <link to="IMachine::attachDevice" />),
12507	each containing a storage controller from the above array, a
12508	port/device specification, and an instance of IMedium representing
12509	the medium storage (image file).
12510
12511	For removable media, the storage medium is optional; a medium
12512	attachment with no medium represents a CD/DVD or floppy drive
12513	with no medium inserted. By contrast, hard disk attachments
12514	will always have an IMedium object attached.</li>
12515	<li>Each IMedium in turn points to a storage unit (such as a file
12516	on the host computer or a network resource) that holds actual
12517	data. This location is represented by the <link to="#location"/>
12518	attribute.</li>
12519	</ul>
12520
12521	Existing media are opened using <link to="IVirtualBox::openMedium"/>;
12522	new hard disk media can be created with the VirtualBox API using the
12523	<link to="IVirtualBox::createHardDisk"/> method. Differencing hard
12524	disks (see below) are usually implicitly created by VirtualBox as
12525	needed, but may also be created explicitly using <link to="#createDiffStorage"/>.
12526	VirtualBox cannot create CD/DVD or floppy images (ISO and RAW files); these
12527	should be created with external tools and then opened from within VirtualBox.
12528
12529	Only for CD/DVDs and floppies, an IMedium instance can also represent a host
12530	drive. In that case the <link to="#id" /> attribute contains the UUID of
12531	one of the drives in <link to="IHost::DVDDrives" /> or <link to="IHost::floppyDrives" />.
12532
12533	<h3>Media registries</h3>
12534
12535	When a medium has been opened or created using one of the aforementioned
12536	APIs, it becomes "known" to VirtualBox. Known media can be attached
12537	to virtual machines and re-found through <link to="IVirtualBox::openMedium"/>.
12538	They also appear in the global
12539	<link to="IVirtualBox::hardDisks" />,
12540	<link to="IVirtualBox::DVDImages" /> and
12541	<link to="IVirtualBox::floppyImages" /> arrays.
12542
12543	Prior to VirtualBox 4.0, opening a medium added it to a global media registry
12544	in the VirtualBox.xml file, which was shared between all machines and made
12545	transporting machines and their media from one host to another difficult.
12546
12547	Starting with VirtualBox 4.0, media are only added to a registry when they are
12548	<i>attached</i> to a machine using <link to="IMachine::attachDevice" />. For
12549	backwards compatibility, which registry a medium is added to depends on which
12550	VirtualBox version created a machine:
12551
12552	<ul>
12553	<li>If the medium has first been attached to a machine which was created by
12554	VirtualBox 4.0 or later, it is added to that machine's media registry in
12555	the machine XML settings file. This way all information about a machine's
12556	media attachments is contained in a single file and can be transported
12557	easily.</li>
12558	<li>For older media attachments (i.e. if the medium was first attached to a
12559	machine which was created with a VirtualBox version before 4.0), media
12560	continue to be registered in the global VirtualBox settings file, for
12561	backwards compatibility.</li>
12562	</ul>
12563
12564	See <link to="IVirtualBox::openMedium" /> for more information.
12565
12566	Media are removed from media registries by the <link to="IMedium::close"/>,
12567	<link to="#deleteStorage"/> and <link to="#mergeTo"/> methods.
12568
12569	<h3>Accessibility checks</h3>
12570
12571	VirtualBox defers media accessibility checks until the <link to="#refreshState" />
12572	method is called explicitly on a medium. This is done to make the VirtualBox object
12573	ready for serving requests as fast as possible and let the end-user
12574	application decide if it needs to check media accessibility right away or not.
12575
12576	As a result, when VirtualBox starts up (e.g. the VirtualBox
12577	object gets created for the first time), all known media are in the
12578	"Inaccessible" state, but the value of the <link to="#lastAccessError"/>
12579	attribute is an empty string because no actual accessibility check has
12580	been made yet.
12581
12582	After calling <link to="#refreshState" />, a medium is considered
12583	<i>accessible</i> if its storage unit can be read. In that case, the
12584	<link to="#state"/> attribute has a value of "Created". If the storage
12585	unit cannot be read (for example, because it is located on a disconnected
12586	network resource, or was accidentally deleted outside VirtualBox),
12587	the medium is considered <i>inaccessible</i>, which is indicated by the
12588	"Inaccessible" state. The exact reason why the medium is inaccessible can be
12589	obtained by reading the <link to="#lastAccessError"/> attribute.
12590
12591	<h3>Medium types</h3>
12592
12593	There are five types of medium behavior which are stored in the
12594	<link to="#type"/> attribute (see <link to="MediumType" />) and
12595	which define the medium's behavior with attachments and snapshots.
12596
12597	All media can be also divided in two groups: <i>base</i> media and
12598	<i>differencing</i> media. A base medium contains all sectors of the
12599	medium data in its own storage and therefore can be used independently.
12600	In contrast, a differencing medium is a "delta" to some other medium and
12601	contains only those sectors which differ from that other medium, which is
12602	then called a <i>parent</i>. The differencing medium is said to be
12603	<i>linked to</i> that parent. The parent may be itself a differencing
12604	medium, thus forming a chain of linked media. The last element in that
12605	chain must always be a base medium. Note that several differencing
12606	media may be linked to the same parent medium.
12607
12608	Differencing media can be distinguished from base media by querying the
12609	<link to="#parent"/> attribute: base media do not have parents they would
12610	depend on, so the value of this attribute is always @c null for them.
12611	Using this attribute, it is possible to walk up the medium tree (from the
12612	child medium to its parent). It is also possible to walk down the tree
12613	using the <link to="#children"/> attribute.
12614
12615	Note that the type of all differencing media is "normal"; all other
12616	values are meaningless for them. Base media may be of any type.
12617
12618	<h3>Automatic composition of the file name part</h3>
12619
12620	Another extension to the <link to="IMedium::location"/> attribute is that
12621	there is a possibility to cause VirtualBox to compose a unique value for
12622	the file name part of the location using the UUID of the hard disk. This
12623	applies only to hard disks in <link to="MediumState_NotCreated"/> state,
12624	e.g. before the storage unit is created, and works as follows. You set the
12625	value of the <link to="IMedium::location"/> attribute to a location
12626	specification which only contains the path specification but not the file
12627	name part and ends with either a forward slash or a backslash character.
12628	In response, VirtualBox will generate a new UUID for the hard disk and
12629	compose the file name using the following pattern:
12630	<pre>
12631	<path>/{<uuid>}.<ext>

13003
13004	The refresh, if performed, may take a long time (several seconds or even

13060	<desc>
13061	Locks this medium for reading.
13062
13063	A read lock is shared: many clients can simultaneously lock the
13064	same medium for reading unless it is already locked for writing (see
13065	<link to="#lockWrite"/>) in which case an error is returned.
13066
13067	When the medium is locked for reading, it cannot be modified
13068	from within VirtualBox. This means that any method that changes
13069	the properties of this medium or contents of the storage unit
13070	will return an error (unless explicitly stated otherwise). That
13071	includes an attempt to start a virtual machine that wants to
13072	write to the the medium.
13073
13074	When the virtual machine is started up, it locks for reading all
13075	media it uses in read-only mode. If some medium cannot be locked
13076	for reading, the startup procedure will fail.
13077	A medium is typically locked for reading while it is used by a running
13078	virtual machine but has a depending differencing image that receives
13079	the actual write operations. This way one base medium can have
13080	multiple child differencing images which can be written to
13081	simultaneously. Read-only media such as DVD and floppy images are
13082	also locked for reading only (so they can be in use by multiple
13083	machines simultaneously).
13084
13085	A medium is also locked for reading when it is the source of a
13086	write operation such as <link to="#cloneTo"/> or <link to="#mergeTo"/>.
13087
13088	The medium locked for reading must be unlocked using the <link
13089	to="#unlockRead"/> method. Calls to <link to="#lockRead"/>
13090	can be nested and must be followed by the same number of paired
13091	<link to="#unlockRead"/> calls.
13092
13093	This method sets the medium state (see <link to="#state"/>) to
13094	"LockedRead" on success. The medium's previous state must be
13095	one of "Created", "Inaccessible" or "LockedRead".
13096
13097	Locking an inaccessible medium is not an error; this method performs
13098	a logical lock that prevents modifications of this medium through
13099	the VirtualBox API, not a physical file-system lock of the underlying
13100	storage unit.

13140	<desc>
13141	Locks this medium for writing.
13142
13143	A write lock, as opposed to <link to="#lockRead"/>, is
13144	exclusive: there may be only one client holding a write lock,
13145	and there may be no read locks while the write lock is held.
13146	As a result, read-locking fails if a write lock is held, and
13147	write-locking fails if either a read or another write lock is held.
13148
13149	When a medium is locked for writing, it cannot be modified
13150	from within VirtualBox, and it is not guaranteed that the values
13151	of its properties are up-to-date. Any method that changes the
13152	properties of this medium or contents of the storage unit will
13153	return an error (unless explicitly stated otherwise).
13154
13155	When a virtual machine is started up, it locks for writing all
13156	media it uses to write data to. If any medium could not be locked
13157	for writing, the startup procedure will fail. If a medium has
13158	differencing images, then while the machine is running, only
13159	the last ("leaf") differencing image is locked for writing,
13160	whereas its parents are locked for reading only.
13161
13162	A medium is also locked for writing when it is the target of a
13163	write operation such as <link to="#cloneTo"/> or <link to="#mergeTo"/>.
13164
13165	The medium locked for writing must be unlocked using the <link

13167
13168	This method sets the medium state (see <link to="#state"/>) to
13169	"LockedWrite" on success. The medium's previous state must be

13488	<desc>
13489	Starts merging the contents of this medium and all intermediate
13490	differencing media in the chain to the given target medium.
13491
13492	The target medium must be either a descendant of this medium or
13493	its ancestor (otherwise this method will immediately return a failure).
13494	It follows that there are two logical directions of the merge operation:
13495	from ancestor to descendant (<i>forward merge</i>) and from descendant to
13496	ancestor (<i>backward merge</i>). Let us consider the following medium
13497	chain:
13498
13499	<pre>Base <- Diff_1 <- Diff_2</pre>
13500
13501	Here, calling this method on the <tt>Base</tt> medium object with
13502	<tt>Diff_2</tt> as an argument will be a forward merge; calling it on
13503	<tt>Diff_2</tt> with <tt>Base</tt> as an argument will be a backward
13504	merge. Note that in both cases the contents of the resulting medium
13505	will be the same, the only difference is the medium object that takes
13506	the result of the merge operation. In case of the forward merge in the
13507	above example, the result will be written to <tt>Diff_2</tt>; in case of
13508	the backward merge, the result will be written to <tt>Base</tt>. In
13509	other words, the result of the operation is always stored in the target
13510	medium.
13511
13512	Upon successful operation completion, the storage units of all media in
13513	the chain between this (source) medium and the target medium, including
13514	the source medium itself, will be automatically deleted and the
13515	relevant medium objects (including this medium) will become
13516	uninitialized. This means that any attempt to call any of
13517	their methods or attributes will fail with the
13518	<tt>"Object not ready" (E_ACCESSDENIED)</tt> error. Applied to the above
13519	example, the forward merge of <tt>Base</tt> to <tt>Diff_2</tt> will
13520	delete and uninitialize both <tt>Base</tt> and <tt>Diff_1</tt> media.
13521	Note that <tt>Diff_2</tt> in this case will become a base medium
13522	itself since it will no longer be based on any other medium.
13523
13524	Considering the above, all of the following conditions must be met in
13525	order for the merge operation to succeed:
13526	<ul>
13527	<li>
13528	Neither this (source) medium nor any intermediate
13529	differencing medium in the chain between it and the target
13530	medium is attached to any virtual machine.
13531	</li>
13532	<li>
13533	Neither the source medium nor the target medium is an
13534	<link to="MediumType_Immutable"/> medium.
13535	</li>
13536	<li>
13537	The part of the medium tree from the source medium to the
13538	target medium is a linear chain, i.e. all medium in this
13539	chain have exactly one child which is the next medium in this
13540	chain. The only exception from this rule is the target medium in
13541	the forward merge operation; it is allowed to have any number of
13542	child media because the merge operation will not change its
13543	logical contents (as it is seen by the guest OS or by children).
13544	</li>
13545	<li>
13546	None of the involved media are in
13547	<link to="MediumState_LockedRead"/> or
13548	<link to="MediumState_LockedWrite"/> state.
13549	</li>
13550	</ul>
13551
13552	<note>
13553	This (source) medium and all intermediates will be placed to <link
13554	to="MediumState_Deleting"/> state and the target medium will be

14378
14379	There are two modes of working with the video buffer of the virtual
14380	machine. The <i>indirect</i> mode implies that the IFramebuffer
14381	implementation allocates a memory buffer for the requested display mode
14382	and provides it to the virtual machine. In <i>direct</i> mode, the
14383	IFramebuffer implementation uses the memory buffer allocated and owned
14384	by the virtual machine. This buffer represents the video memory of the
14385	emulated video adapter (so called <i>guest VRAM</i>). The direct mode is
14386	usually faster because the implementation gets a raw pointer to the
14387	guest VRAM buffer which it can directly use for visualizing the contents
14388	of the virtual display, as opposed to the indirect mode where the
14389	contents of guest VRAM are copied to the memory buffer provided by
14390	the implementation every time a display update occurs.
14391
14392	It is important to note that the direct mode is really fast only when
14393	the implementation uses the given guest VRAM buffer directly, for
14394	example, by blitting it to the window representing the virtual machine's
14395	display, which saves at least one copy operation comparing to the
14396	indirect mode. However, using the guest VRAM buffer directly is not
14397	always possible: the format and the color depth of this buffer may be
14398	not supported by the target window, or it may be unknown (opaque) as in
14399	case of text or non-linear multi-plane VGA video modes. In this case,
14400	the indirect mode (that is always available) should be used as a
14401	fallback: when the guest VRAM contents are copied to the
14402	implementation-provided memory buffer, color and format conversion is
14403	done automatically by the underlying code.
14404
14405	The @a pixelFormat parameter defines whether the direct mode is
14406	available or not. If @a pixelFormat is <link
14407	to="FramebufferPixelFormat_Opaque"/> then direct access to the guest
14408	VRAM buffer is not available -- the @a VRAM, @a bitsPerPixel and
14409	@a bytesPerLine parameters must be ignored and the implementation must use
14410	the indirect mode (where it provides its own buffer in one of the
14411	supported formats). In all other cases, @a pixelFormat together with
14412	@a bitsPerPixel and @a bytesPerLine define the format of the video memory
14413	buffer pointed to by the @a VRAM parameter and the implementation is
14414	free to choose which mode to use. To indicate that this frame buffer uses
14415	the direct mode, the implementation of the <link to="#usesGuestVRAM"/>
14416	attribute must return @c true and <link to="#address"/> must
14417	return exactly the same address that is passed in the @a VRAM parameter
14418	of this method; otherwise it is assumed that the indirect strategy is
14419	chosen.
14420
14421	The @a width and @a height parameters represent the size of the
14422	requested display mode in both modes. In case of indirect mode, the
14423	provided memory buffer should be big enough to store data of the given
14424	display mode. In case of direct mode, it is guaranteed that the given
14425	@a VRAM buffer contains enough space to represent the display mode of the
14426	given size. Note that this frame buffer's <link to="#width"/> and <link
14427	to="#height"/> attributes must return exactly the same values as
14428	passed to this method after the resize is completed (see below).
14429
14430	The @a finished output parameter determines if the implementation has
14431	finished resizing the frame buffer or not. If, for some reason, the
14432	resize cannot be finished immediately during this call, @a finished
14433	must be set to @c false, and the implementation must call
14434	<link to="IDisplay::resizeCompleted"/> after it has returned from
14435	this method as soon as possible. If @a finished is @c false, the
14436	machine will not call any frame buffer methods until
14437	<link to="IDisplay::resizeCompleted"/> is called.
14438
14439	Note that if the direct mode is chosen, the <link to="#bitsPerPixel"/>,
14440	<link to="#bytesPerLine"/> and <link to="#pixelFormat"/> attributes of
14441	this frame buffer must return exactly the same values as specified in the
14442	parameters of this method, after the resize is completed. If the
14443	indirect mode is chosen, these attributes must return values describing
14444	the format of the implementation's own memory buffer <link
14445	to="#address"/> points to. Note also that the <link to="#bitsPerPixel"/>
14446	value must always correlate with <link to="#pixelFormat"/>. Note that
14447	the <link to="#pixelFormat"/> attribute must never return <link
14448	to="FramebufferPixelFormat_Opaque"/> regardless of the selected mode.
14449

14451	This method is called by the IDisplay object under the

15296
15297	In host device mode, the #path attribute specifies the name of the

15299
15300	There is also a third communication mode: the disconnected mode. In this

16128	<desc>
16129	The IUSBDeviceFilter interface represents an USB device filter used
16130	to perform actions on a group of USB devices.
16131
16132	This type of filters is used by running virtual machines to
16133	automatically capture selected USB devices once they are physically
16134	attached to the host computer.
16135
16136	A USB device is matched to the given device filter if and only if all
16137	attributes of the device match the corresponding attributes of the
16138	filter (that is, attributes are joined together using the logical AND
16139	operation). On the other hand, all together, filters in the list of
16140	filters carry the semantics of the logical OR operation. So if it is
16141	desirable to create a match like "this vendor id OR this product id",
16142	one needs to create two filters and specify "any match" (see below)
16143	for unused attributes.
16144
16145	All filter attributes used for matching are strings. Each string
16146	is an expression representing a set of values of the corresponding
16147	device attribute, that will match the given filter. Currently, the
16148	following filtering expressions are supported:
16149
16150	<ul>
16151	<li><i>Interval filters</i>. Used to specify valid intervals for
16152	integer device attributes (Vendor ID, Product ID and Revision).
16153	The format of the string is:
16154
16155	<tt>int:((m)\|([m]-[n]))(,(m)\|([m]-[n]))*</tt>
16156
16157	where <tt>m</tt> and <tt>n</tt> are integer numbers, either in octal
16158	(starting from <tt>0</tt>), hexadecimal (starting from <tt>0x</tt>)
16159	or decimal (otherwise) form, so that <tt>m < n</tt>. If <tt>m</tt>
16160	is omitted before a dash (<tt>-</tt>), the minimum possible integer
16161	is assumed; if <tt>n</tt> is omitted after a dash, the maximum
16162	possible integer is assumed.
16163	</li>
16164	<li><i>Boolean filters</i>. Used to specify acceptable values for
16165	boolean device attributes. The format of the string is:
16166
16167	<tt>true\|false\|yes\|no\|0\|1</tt>
16168
16169	</li>
16170	<li><i>Exact match</i>. Used to specify a single value for the given
16171	device attribute. Any string that doesn't start with <tt>int:</tt>
16172	represents the exact match. String device attributes are compared to
16173	this string including case of symbols. Integer attributes are first
16174	converted to a string (see individual filter attributes) and then
16175	compared ignoring case.
16176
16177	</li>
16178	<li><i>Any match</i>. Any value of the corresponding device attribute
16179	will match the given filter. An empty or @c null string is
16180	used to construct this type of filtering expressions.
16181
16182	</li>
16183	</ul>
16184
16185	<note>
16186	On the Windows host platform, interval filters are not currently
16187	available. Also all string filter attributes
16188	(<link to="#manufacturer"/>, <link to="#product"/>,
16189	<link to="#serialNumber"/>) are ignored, so they behave as
16190	<i>any match</i> no matter what string expression is specified.

16300	of the USB device physically attached to the host computer regarding
16301	its state on the host computer and availability to guest computers
16302	(all currently running virtual machines).
16303
16304	Once a supported USB device is attached to the host, global USB
16305	filters (<link to="IHost::USBDeviceFilters"/>) are activated. They can
16306	either ignore the device, or put it to USBDeviceState_Held state, or do
16307	nothing. Unless the device is ignored by global filters, filters of all
16308	currently running guests (<link to="IUSBController::deviceFilters"/>) are
16309	activated that can put it to USBDeviceState_Captured state.
16310
16311	If the device was ignored by global filters, or didn't match
16312	any filters at all (including guest ones), it is handled by the host
16313	in a normal way. In this case, the device state is determined by
16314	the host and can be one of USBDeviceState_Unavailable, USBDeviceState_Busy
16315	or USBDeviceState_Available, depending on the current device usage.
16316
16317	Besides auto-capturing based on filters, the device can be manually
16318	captured by guests (<link to="IConsole::attachUSBDevice"/>) if its
16319	state is USBDeviceState_Busy, USBDeviceState_Available or
16320	USBDeviceState_Held.
16321
16322	<note>
16323	Due to differences in USB stack implementations in Linux and Win32,
16324	states USBDeviceState_Busy and USBDeviceState_Unavailable are applicable
16325	only to the Linux version of the product. This also means that (<link
16326	to="IConsole::attachUSBDevice"/>) can only succeed on Win32 if the
16327	device state is USBDeviceState_Held.

16651	<interface
16652	name="ISharedFolder" extends="$unknown"

16655	>
16656	<desc>
16657	The ISharedFolder interface represents a folder in the host computer's
16658	file system accessible from the guest OS running inside a virtual
16659	machine using an associated logical name.
16660
16661	There are three types of shared folders:
16662	<ul>
16663	<li><i>Global</i> (<link to="IVirtualBox::sharedFolders"/>), shared
16664	folders available to all virtual machines.</li>
16665	<li><i>Permanent</i> (<link to="IMachine::sharedFolders"/>),
16666	VM-specific shared folders available to the given virtual machine at
16667	startup.</li>
16668	<li><i>Transient</i> (<link to="IConsole::sharedFolders"/>),
16669	VM-specific shared folders created in the session context (for
16670	example, when the virtual machine is running) and automatically
16671	discarded when the session is closed (the VM is powered off).</li>
16672	</ul>
16673
16674	Logical names of shared folders must be unique within the given scope
16675	(global, permanent or transient). However, they do not need to be unique
16676	across scopes. In this case, the definition of the shared folder in a
16677	more specific scope takes precedence over definitions in all other
16678	scopes. The order of precedence is (more specific to more general):
16679	<ol>
16680	<li>Transient definitions</li>
16681	<li>Permanent definitions</li>
16682	<li>Global definitions</li>
16683	</ol>
16684
16685	For example, if MyMachine has a shared folder named
16686	<tt>C_DRIVE</tt> (that points to <tt>C:\\</tt>), then creating a
16687	transient shared folder named <tt>C_DRIVE</tt> (that points
16688	to <tt>C:\\\\WINDOWS</tt>) will change the definition
16689	of <tt>C_DRIVE</tt> in the guest OS so
16690	that <tt>\\\\VBOXSVR\\C_DRIVE</tt> will give access
16691	to <tt>C:\\WINDOWS</tt> instead of <tt>C:\\</tt> on the host
16692	PC. Removing the transient shared folder <tt>C_DRIVE</tt> will restore
16693	the previous (permanent) definition of <tt>C_DRIVE</tt> that points
16694	to <tt>C:\\</tt> if it still exists.
16695
16696	Note that permanent and transient shared folders of different machines
16697	are in different name spaces, so they don't overlap and don't need to
16698	have unique logical names.
16699
16700	<note>
16701	Global shared folders are not implemented in the current version of the
16702	product.

17259	<desc>
17260	The ISession interface represents a client process and allows for locking
17261	virtual machines (represented by IMachine objects) to prevent conflicting
17262	changes to the machine.
17263
17264	Any caller wishing to manipulate a virtual machine needs to create a session
17265	object first, which lives in its own process space. Such session objects are
17266	then associated with <link to="IMachine" /> objects living in the VirtualBox
17267	server process to coordinate such changes.
17268
17269	There are two typical scenarios in which sessions are used:
17270
17271	<ul>
17272	<li>To alter machine settings or control a running virtual machine, one
17273	needs to lock a machine for a given session (client process) by calling
17274	<link to="IMachine::lockMachine"/>.
17275
17276	Whereas multiple sessions may control a running virtual machine, only
17277	one process can obtain a write lock on the machine to prevent conflicting
17278	changes. A write lock is also needed if a process wants to actually run a
17279	virtual machine in its own context, such as the VirtualBox GUI or
17280	VBoxHeadless front-ends. They must also lock a machine for their own
17281	sessions before they are allowed to power up the virtual machine.
17282
17283	As a result, no machine settings can be altered while another process is
17284	already using it, either because that process is modifying machine settings
17285	or because the machine is running.
17286	</li>
17287	<li>
17288	To start a VM using one of the existing VirtualBox front-ends (e.g. the
17289	VirtualBox GUI or VBoxHeadless), one would use
17290	<link to="IMachine::launchVMProcess"/>, which also takes a session object
17291	as its first parameter. This session then identifies the caller and lets the
17292	caller control the started machine (for example, pause machine execution or
17293	power it down) as well as be notified about machine execution state changes.
17294	</li>
17295	</ul>
17296
17297	How sessions objects are created in a client process depends on whether you use
17298	the Main API via COM or via the webservice:
17299
17300	<ul>
17301	<li>When using the COM API directly, an object of the Session class from the
17302	VirtualBox type library needs to be created. In regular COM C++ client code,
17303	this can be done by calling <tt>createLocalObject()</tt>, a standard COM API.
17304	This object will then act as a local session object in further calls to open
17305	a session.
17306	</li>
17307
17308	<li>In the webservice, the session manager (IWebsessionManager) instead creates
17309	a session object automatically whenever <link to="IWebsessionManager::logon" />
17310	is called. A managed object reference to that session object can be retrieved by
17311	calling <link to="IWebsessionManager::getSessionObject" />.
17312	</li>
17313	</ul>

17340	Calling this method is required every time a machine has been locked
17341	for a particular session using the <link to="IMachine::launchVMProcess" />
17342	or <link to="IMachine::lockMachine" /> calls. Otherwise the state of
17343	the machine will be set to <link to="MachineState_Aborted" /> on the
17344	server, and changes made to the machine settings will be lost.
17345
17346	Generally, it is recommended to unlock all machines explicitly
17347	before terminating the application (regardless of the reason for
17348	the termination).
17349
17350	<note>
17351	Do not expect the session state (<link to="ISession::state" />
17352	to return to "Unlocked" immediately after you invoke this method,
17353	particularly if you have started a new VM process. The session
17354	state will automatically return to "Unlocked" once the VM is no

17730	<desc>
17731	The IPerformanceCollector interface represents a service that collects
17732	and stores performance metrics data.
17733
17734	Performance metrics are associated with objects of interfaces like IHost
17735	and IMachine. Each object has a distinct set of performance metrics. The
17736	set can be obtained with <link to="IPerformanceCollector::getMetrics"/>.
17737
17738	Metric data is collected at the specified intervals and is retained
17739	internally. The interval and the number of retained samples can be set
17740	with <link to="IPerformanceCollector::setupMetrics" />. Both metric data
17741	and collection settings are not persistent, they are discarded as soon as
17742	VBoxSVC process terminates. Moreover, metric settings and data associated
17743	with a particular VM only exist while VM is running. They disappear as
17744	soon as VM shuts down. It is not possible to set up metrics for machines
17745	that are powered off. One needs to start VM first, then set up metric
17746	collection parameters.
17747
17748	Metrics are organized hierarchically, with each level separated by a
17749	slash (/) character. Generally, the scheme for metric names is like this:
17750
17751	<tt>Category/Metric[/SubMetric][:aggregation]</tt>
17752
17753	"Category/Metric" together form the base metric name. A base metric is
17754	the smallest unit for which a sampling interval and the number of
17755	retained samples can be set. Only base metrics can be enabled and
17756	disabled. All sub-metrics are collected when their base metric is
17757	collected. Collected values for any set of sub-metrics can be queried
17758	with <link to="IPerformanceCollector::queryMetricsData" />.
17759
17760	For example "CPU/Load/User:avg" metric name stands for the "CPU"
17761	category, "Load" metric, "User" submetric, "average" aggregate. An
17762	aggregate function is computed over all retained data. Valid aggregate
17763	functions are:
17764
17765	<ul>
17766	<li>avg -- average</li>
17767	<li>min -- minimum</li>
17768	<li>max -- maximum</li>
17769	</ul>
17770
17771	When setting up metric parameters, querying metric data, enabling or
17772	disabling metrics wildcards can be used in metric names to specify a
17773	subset of metrics. For example, to select all CPU-related metrics
17774	use <tt>CPU/</tt>, all averages can be queried using <tt>:avg</tt> and
17775	so on. To query metric values without aggregates <tt>*:</tt> can be used.
17776
17777	The valid names for base metrics are:
17778
17779	<ul>
17780	<li>CPU/Load</li>
17781	<li>CPU/MHz</li>
17782	<li>RAM/Usage</li>
17783	<li>RAM/VMM</li>
17784	</ul>
17785
17786	The general sequence for collecting and retrieving the metrics is:
17787	<ul>
17788	<li>
17789	Obtain an instance of IPerformanceCollector with
17790	<link to="IVirtualBox::performanceCollector" />
17791	</li>
17792	<li>
17793	Allocate and populate an array with references to objects the metrics
17794	will be collected for. Use references to IHost and IMachine objects.
17795	</li>
17796	<li>
17797	Allocate and populate an array with base metric names the data will
17798	be collected for.
17799	</li>
17800	<li>
17801	Call <link to="IPerformanceCollector::setupMetrics" />. From now on
17802	the metric data will be collected and stored.
17803	</li>
17804	<li>
17805	Wait for the data to get collected.
17806	</li>
17807	<li>
17808	Allocate and populate an array with references to objects the metric
17809	values will be queried for. You can re-use the object array used for
17810	setting base metrics.
17811	</li>
17812	<li>
17813	Allocate and populate an array with metric names the data will be
17814	collected for. Note that metric names differ from base metric names.
17815	</li>
17816	<li>
17817	Call <link to="IPerformanceCollector::queryMetricsData" />. The data
17818	that have been collected so far are returned. Note that the values
17819	are still retained internally and data collection continues.

19239	Abstract parent interface for VirtualBox events. Actual events will typically implement
19240	a more specific interface which derives from this (see below).
19241
19242	<b>Introduction to VirtualBox events</b>
19243
19244	Generally speaking, an event (represented by this interface) signals that something
19245	happened, while an event listener (see <link to="IEventListener" />) represents an
19246	entity that is interested in certain events. In order for this to work with
19247	unidirectional protocols (i.e. web services), the concepts of passive and active
19248	listener are used.
19249
19250	Event consumers can register themselves as listeners, providing an array of
19251	events they are interested in (see <link to="IEventSource::registerListener" />).
19252	When an event triggers, the listener is notified about the event. The exact
19253	mechanism of the notification depends on whether the listener was registered as
19254	an active or passive listener:
19255
19256	<ul>
19257	<li>An active listener is very similar to a callback: it is a function invoked
19258	by the API. As opposed to the callbacks that were used in the API before
19259	VirtualBox 4.0 however, events are now objects with an interface hierarchy.
19260	</li>
19261
19262	<li>Passive listeners are somewhat trickier to implement, but do not require
19263	a client function to be callable, which is not an option with scripting
19264	languages or web service clients. Internally the <link to="IEventSource" />
19265	implementation maintains an event queue for each passive listener, and
19266	newly arrived events are put in this queue. When the listener calls
19267	<link to="IEventSource::getEvent"/>, first element from its internal event
19268	queue is returned. When the client completes processing of an event,
19269	the <link to="IEventSource::eventProcessed" /> function must be called,
19270	acknowledging that the event was processed. It supports implementing
19271	waitable events. On passive listener unregistration, all events from its
19272	queue are auto-acknowledged.
19273	</li>
19274	</ul>
19275
19276	Waitable events are useful in situations where the event generator wants to track
19277	delivery or a party wants to wait until all listeners have completed the event. A
19278	typical example would be a vetoable event (see <link to="IVetoEvent" />) where a
19279	listeners might veto a certain action, and thus the event producer has to make
19280	sure that all listeners have processed the event and not vetoed before taking
19281	the action.
19282
19283	A given event may have both passive and active listeners at the same time.
19284
19285	<b>Using events</b>
19286
19287	Any VirtualBox object capable of producing externally visible events provides an
19288	@c eventSource read-only attribute, which is of the type <link to="IEventSource" />.
19289	This event source object is notified by VirtualBox once something has happened, so
19290	consumers may register event listeners with this event source. To register a listener,
19291	an object implementing the <link to="IEventListener" /> interface must be provided.
19292	For active listeners, such an object is typically created by the consumer, while for
19293	passive listeners <link to="IEventSource::createListener" /> should be used. Please
19294	note that a listener created with <link to="IEventSource::createListener"/> must not be used as an active listener.
19295
19296	Once created, the listener must be registered to listen for the desired events
19297	(see <link to="IEventSource::registerListener" />), providing an array of
19298	<link to="VBoxEventType" /> enums. Those elements can either be the individual
19299	event IDs or wildcards matching multiple event IDs.
19300
19301	After registration, the callback's <link to="IEventListener::handleEvent" /> method is
19302	called automatically when the event is triggered, while passive listeners have to call
19303	<link to="IEventSource::getEvent" /> and <link to="IEventSource::eventProcessed" /> in
19304	an event processing loop.
19305
19306	The IEvent interface is an abstract parent interface for all such VirtualBox events
19307	coming in. As a result, the standard use pattern inside <link to="IEventListener::handleEvent" />
19308	or the event processing loop is to check the <link to="#type" /> attribute of the event and
19309	then cast to the appropriate specific interface using @c QueryInterface().

19328	as no additional overhead associated with waitability imposed.
19329	Waitable events are needed when one need to be able to wait for particular event processed,
19330	for example for vetoable changes, or if event refers to some resource which need to be kept immutable

19607
19608	The @a shape buffer contains a 1-bpp (bits per pixel) AND mask
19609	followed by a 32-bpp XOR (color) mask.
19610
19611	For pointers without alpha channel the XOR mask pixels are 32
19612	bit values: (lsb)BGR0(msb). For pointers with alpha channel
19613	the XOR mask consists of (lsb)BGRA(msb) 32 bit values.
19614
19615	An AND mask is used for pointers with alpha channel, so if the
19616	callback does not support alpha, the pointer could be
19617	displayed as a normal color pointer.
19618
19619	The AND mask is a 1-bpp bitmap with byte aligned scanlines. The
19620	size of the AND mask therefore is <tt>cbAnd = (width + 7) / 8 *
19621	height</tt>. The padding bits at the end of each scanline are
19622	undefined.
19623
19624	The XOR mask follows the AND mask on the next 4-byte aligned
19625	offset: <tt>uint8_t *pXor = pAnd + (cbAnd + 3) & ~3</tt>.
19626	Bytes in the gap between the AND and the XOR mask are undefined.
19627	The XOR mask scanlines have no gap between them and the size of
19628	the XOR mask is: <tt>cXor = width * 4 * height</tt>.

20327	<desc>
20328	Notification when an error happens during the virtual
20329	machine execution.
20330
20331	There are three kinds of runtime errors:
20332	<ul>
20333	<li><i>fatal</i></li>
20334	<li><i>non-fatal with retry</i></li>
20335	<li><i>non-fatal warnings</i></li>
20336	</ul>
20337
20338	<b>Fatal</b> errors are indicated by the @a fatal parameter set
20339	to @c true. In case of fatal errors, the virtual machine
20340	execution is always paused before calling this notification, and
20341	the notification handler is supposed either to immediately save
20342	the virtual machine state using <link to="IConsole::saveState"/>
20343	or power it off using <link to="IConsole::powerDown"/>.
20344	Resuming the execution can lead to unpredictable results.
20345
20346	<b>Non-fatal</b> errors and warnings are indicated by the
20347	@a fatal parameter set to @c false. If the virtual machine
20348	is in the Paused state by the time the error notification is
20349	received, it means that the user can <i>try to resume</i> the machine
20350	execution after attempting to solve the problem that caused the
20351	error. In this case, the notification handler is supposed
20352	to show an appropriate message to the user (depending on the
20353	value of the @a id parameter) that offers several actions such
20354	as <i>Retry</i>, <i>Save</i> or <i>Power Off</i>. If the user
20355	wants to retry, the notification handler should continue
20356	the machine execution using the <link to="IConsole::resume"/>
20357	call. If the machine execution is not Paused during this
20358	notification, then it means this notification is a <i>warning</i>
20359	(for example, about a fatal condition that can happen very soon);
20360	no immediate action is required from the user, the machine
20361	continues its normal execution.
20362
20363	Note that in either case the notification handler
20364	<b>must not</b> perform any action directly on a thread
20365	where this notification is called. Everything it is allowed to
20366	do is to post a message to another thread that will then talk
20367	to the user and take the corresponding action.
20368
20369	Currently, the following error identifiers are known:
20370	<ul>
20371	<li><tt>"HostMemoryLow"</tt></li>
20372	<li><tt>"HostAudioNotResponding"</tt></li>

20557	must return a non-zero identifier that represents the

20559	represents a currently active process, is responsible to use
20560	this identifier (in a platform-dependent manner) to perform
20561	actual window activation.
20562
20563	This method must set @a winId to zero if it has performed all
20564	actions necessary to complete the request and the console
