Hi,
According to this support matrix
https://libvirt.org/hvsupport.html#virNetworkDriver
<https://libvirt.org/hvsupport.html#virNetworkDriver>
there is no support for any APIs other than hypervisor ones for qemu.
For example virConnectNumOfNetworks is not supported.
I'm afraid I don't understand your question. Which hypervisor are you
using that you think virConnectNumOfNetworks isn't supported. The only
possible meaning I can get from the above sentences is that you think
virConnectNumOfNetworks isn't supported when qemu is the hypervisor,
which is definitely *not* true.
As a matter of fact, essentiall *all* of the functions in the matrix are
supported when qemu is the hypervisor, pretty much every one of them
ever since their original introduction (e.g., the function you reference
has been supported since libvirt 0.2.0, which was released in February
2007).
Are you possibly misinterpreting the contents of the support matrix?
Is there any particular reason this is not supported? Has any
development in that area been attempted in the past? Would contributions
adding support be welcomed?
Thanks,
