launch

Description:

[ Version ( since = "0.3" ) ]
public bool launch () throws Error

launch the backend

You should call this after configuring the handle (eg. adding drives) but before performing any actions.

Do not call launch twice on the same handle. Although it will not give an error (for historical reasons), the precise behaviour when you do this is not well defined. Handles are very cheap to create, so create a new one for each launch.

Parameters:

this	A GuestfsSession object

Returns:

true on success, false on error
