nameapplication name
chroot_prefixshared memory prefix
max_outstanding_requestsmax number of outstanding requests queued
response_queue_sizesize of the response queue
modemode of operation - blocking or nonblocking

+ Here is the caller graph for this function:

vapi_error_e vapi_dispatch ( vapi_ctx_t  ctx)

loop vapi_dispatch_one until responses to all currently outstanding requests have been received and their callbacks called

Note
the dispatch loop is interrupted if any error is encountered or returned from the callback, in which case this error is returned as the result of vapi_dispatch. In this case it might be necessary to call dispatch again to process the remaining messages. Returning VAPI_EUSER from a callback allows the user to break the dispatch loop (and distinguish this case in the calling code from other failures). VAPI never returns VAPI_EUSER on its own.
Returns
VAPI_OK on success, other error code on error
