## Function Documentation

### int globus\_module\_activate (globus\_module\_descriptor\_t \* module\_descriptor)

Activate a module. Add a reference to the module named by module\_descriptor to the list of activated modules. If this is the first reference to this module, its activation function will be called.

**Parameters**

*module\_descriptor* Module to activate

### int globus\_module\_activate\_array (globus\_module\_descriptor\_t \* module\_array\[\], globus\_module\_descriptor\_t \*\* failed\_module)

Activate a group of modules. Activate an NULL-terminated array of modules. If any fail to activate, all are deactivated and the error from the failed activation is returned. If nonzero is returned, and failed\_module is non-NULL, it will be set to point to the 1st module which failed to activate.
