Example

Assuming a repository is filled with projects, and in particular contains a project "my_project" that has members "1", "2", "3", "4", and "5". Furthermore, "my_project" and its members "1" and "2" have been opened in a workspace. The workspace looks as follows: 
   /home/bigtime/andre/workspace/my_project/1
					    2
To update the context of the changes made to the current version of "2", the following code fragment can be used: 
   #include "nc.h"

   char  value[1024 + 1];

   nc_getattributevalue("my_project/2",
			"/home/bigtime/andre/workspace",
			"comments",
			&value);
   nc_removeattribute("my_project/2",
		      "/home/bigtime/andre/workspace",
		      "comments");
   sprintf(value, "%s\n%s", value,
	   "Forgot to demonstrate that attributes can be removed too");
   nc_testandsetattribute("my_project/2",
			  "/home/bigtime/andre/workspace",
			  "comments",
			  value);
