This page just documents the differences from +the C API and gives some examples. If you are not familiar with using +libguestfs, you also need to read L<guestfs(3)>. + +=head2 CLOSING THE HANDLE + +The handle is closed when it is reaped by the garbage collector. +Because libguestfs handles include a lot of state, it is also +possible to close (and hence free) them explicitly by calling +the C<close> method. + +=head2 EXCEPTIONS + +Errors from libguestfs functions are mapped into the +C<LibGuestFSException> exception. This has a single parameter which +is the error message (a C<String>). + +Calling any method on a closed handle raises the same exception. + +=head1 EXAMPLE 1: CREATE A DISK IMAGE + +@EXAMPLE1@ + +=head1 EXAMPLE 2: INSPECT A VIRTUAL MACHINE DISK IMAGE + +@EXAMPLE2@ + +=head1 SEE ALSO + +L<guestfs(3)>, +L<guestfs-examples(3)>, +L<guestfs-ocaml(3)>, +L<guestfs-perl(3)>, +L<guestfs-python(3)>, +L<guestfs-recipes(1)>, +L<guestfs-ruby(3)>, +L<http://libguestfs.org/>, +L<http://caml.inria.fr/>. + +=head1 AUTHORS + +Richard W.M.
