NAME

       capng_have_capabilities - general check for capabilities

SYNOPSIS

       #include <cap-ng.h>

       capng_results_t capng_have_capabilities(capng_select_t set);

DESCRIPTION

       capng_have_capabilities  will  check the selected internal capabilities
       sets to  see  what  the  status  is.  The  capabilities  sets  must  be
       previously     setup     with    calls    to    capng_get_caps_process,
       capng_get_caps_fd,  or  in  some  other  way  setup.  The  options  are
       CAPNG_SELECT_CAPS for the traditional capabilities, CAPNG_SELECT_BOUNDS
       for the bounding set, or CAPNG_SELECT_BOTH if clearing both is desired.

RETURN VALUE

       This  funtion  will  return  one of the following four self explanatory
       values: CAPNG_FAIL, CAPNG_NONE, CAPNG_PARTIAL, CAPNG_FULL.
