pmDupContext - duplicate a PMAPI context

#include<pcp/pmapi.h>intpmDupContext(void);cc...-lpcp

       An  application  using  the  Performance Metrics Application Programming Interface (PMAPI) may manipulate
       several concurrent contexts, each associated with a source of performance metrics, e.g. pmcd(1)  on  some
       host, or a set of archives of performance metrics as created by pmlogger(1).

       Calling  pmDupContext  will  replicate  the current PMAPI context, returning a handle for the new context
       that may be used with subsequent calls to pmUseContext(3).

       Once created, the duplicated context and the original context have independent existence,  and  so  their
       instance profiles and collection time (relevant only for archive contexts) may be independently varied.

       The newly replicated context becomes the current context.
