Sample

void create_event_type(void)
{
   uint64_t truxton = truxton_create();

   uint64_t event_type = truxton_event_type_create( truxton );

   truxton_event_type_set_id( event_type, 21212 );
   truxton_event_type_set_name( event_type, "FBI Action" );

   {
      printf("Cannot save event type to the database.\n");
   }
   else
   {
      char type_name[ 128 ];

      uint64_t new_id = truxton_event_type_get_id( event_type );

      truxton_event_type_get_name( event_type, type_name, sizeof( type_name ) ); 
      printf( "Created %s event type as id %" PRIu64 "\n", type_name, new_id );
   }

   truxton_event_type_destroy( event_type );
