C example: Define a password schema

Each stored password has a set of attributes which are later used to lookup the password. The names and types of the attributes are defined in a schema. The schema is usually defined once globally. Here's how to define a schema:

/* in a header: */

const SecretSchema * example_get_schema (void) G_GNUC_CONST;

#define EXAMPLE_SCHEMA  example_get_schema ()


/* in a .c file: */

const SecretSchema *
example_get_schema (void)
{
    static const SecretSchema the_schema = {
        "org.example.Password", SECRET_SCHEMA_NONE,
        {
            {  "number", SECRET_SCHEMA_ATTRIBUTE_INTEGER },
            {  "string", SECRET_SCHEMA_ATTRIBUTE_STRING },
            {  "even", SECRET_SCHEMA_ATTRIBUTE_BOOLEAN },
            {  "NULL", 0 },
        }
    };
    return &the_schema;
}

See the other examples for how to use the schema.
