.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.sp
These functions allow to manage variables of devices\&.
.sp
The \fBnutclient_get_device_variables()\fR function retrieves the list of variables names for a device\&. The returned strarr must be freed by \fIstrarr_free\fR\&.
.sp
The \fBnutclient_get_device_rw_variables\fR function retrieves the list of read\-write variables names for a device\&. The returned strarr must be freed by \fIstrarr_free\fR\&.
.sp
The \fBnutclient_has_device_variable\fR function tests if the specified variable is supported by the device\&. Return 1 is supported and 0 if not\&.
.sp
The \fBnutclient_get_device_variable_description\fR function retrieves the variable description, if any\&. The returned string must be freed\&.
.sp
The \fBnutclient_get_device_variable_values\fR returns variable values (generally only one)\&. The returned strarr must be freed by \fIstrarr_free\fR\&.
.sp
The \fBnutclient_set_device_variable_value\fR intends to set the value of the specified variable\&.
.sp
The \fBnutclient_set_device_variable_values\fR intends to set multiple values of the specified variable\&.
