= Attropl data type = 

Attropl is a structure which is defined in ''pbs_ifl.h'' as:
{{{
#!C
struct attropl {
  struct attropl *next;
  char           *name;
  char           *resource;
  char           *value;
  enum batch_op   op;
  };
}}}

== Python Usage ==

If a function requires this data type then use the following code:
{{{
#!python

# Values depend in which context we use it, eg for pbs_manager()
#
attropl = pbs.new_attropl(1)
attropl[0].name = 'properties'
attropl[0].value = 'gigabit'
attropl[0].op = pbs.INCR
}}}
This will add a node property ''gigabit''

In some functions the ''attropl.resource'' parameter is used to specify a resource in a group of resources. The example will set ''Resource_List.neednodes = 10'' can be used in the function [wiki:TorqueUsage/Functions/Pbs_submit pbs_submit]:
{{{
attropl[0].name     = pbs.ATTR_l     # define in pbs_ifl.h ( "Resource_List" )
attropl[0].resource = 'neednodes'
attropl[0].value    = '10'
}}}


''Note:'' That the next pointer definition is not used in the Python code. The module will automatically convert a C linked list to a Python list a vice versa
