NUTSCAN_ADD_OPTION_TO_DEVICE(3)
===============================

NAME
----

nutscan_add_option_to_device - Add option data to the specified device.

SYNOPSIS
--------

 #include <nut-scan.h>

 void nutscan_add_option_to_device(
        nutscan_device_t * device,
        char * option_name,
        char * value);


DESCRIPTION
-----------

The `nutscan_device_t` contains the following variables:

	nutscan_device_type_t   type;
	char *          driver;
	char *          port;
	nutscan_options_t       opt;
	struct nutscan_device * prev;
	struct nutscan_device * next;

This is a double linked list of device. Each device is described by
its `type`, its `driver` name, its `port` and any number of optional data.

The *nutscan_add_option_to_device()* adds an optional data in the
given device. Optional data are made of an 'option_name' and an
associated 'value'. Copies of 'option_name' and 'value' are stored
in the device, so the caller can safely free both of the original
strings used as arguments.

NOTES
-----

Technically, the function is currently defined in 'nutscan-device.h' file.
