<title>Description</title>
<para><function>sd_journal_enumerate_fields()</function> may be used to iterate through all field names used in the
opened journal files. On each invocation the next field name is returned. The order of the returned field names is
not defined. It takes two arguments: the journal context object, plus a pointer to a constant string pointer where
the field name is stored in. The returned data is in a read-only memory map and is only valid until the next
invocation of <function>sd_journal_enumerate_fields()</function>. Note that this call is subject to the data field
size threshold as controlled by <function>sd_journal_set_data_threshold()</function>.</para>
<para><function>sd_journal_restart_fields()</function> resets the field name enumeration index to the beginning of
the list. The next invocation of <function>sd_journal_enumerate_fields()</function> will return the first field
name again.</para>
<para>The <function>SD_JOURNAL_FOREACH_FIELD()</function> macro may be used as a handy wrapper around
<function>sd_journal_restart_fields()</function> and <function>sd_journal_enumerate_fields()</function>.</para>
<para>These functions currently are not influenced by matches set with <function>sd_journal_add_match()</function>
but this might change in a later version of this software.</para>
<para>To retrieve the possible values a specific field can take use
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_query_unique</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para>
</refsect1>
<refsect1>
<title>Return Value</title>
<para><function>sd_journal_enumerate_fields()</function> returns a
positive integer if the next field name has been read, 0 when no
more field names are known, or a negative errno-style error code.
<function>sd_journal_restart_fields()</function> returns
nothing.</para>
</refsect1>
<refsect1>
<title>Notes</title>
<para>All functions listed here are thread-agnostic and only a single thread may operate
on a given <structname>sd_journal</structname> object.</para>
<para>The <function>sd_journal_enumerate_fields()</function> and <function>sd_journal_restart_fields()</function>
interfaces are available as a shared library, which can be compiled and linked to with the
<constant>libsystemd</constant> <citerefentry
project='die-net'><refentrytitle>pkg-config</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry> file.</para>
</refsect1>

<title>Examples</title>
<para>Use the <function>SD_JOURNAL_FOREACH_FIELD</function> macro to iterate through all field names in use in the
current journal.</para>
