SET_VERSION(2)           DOMAIN/IX SYS5            SET_VERSION(2)



NAME
     set_version, get_version - set/get system version (obsolete)

USAGE
     set_version(string)
     char *string;

     get_version (cp)
     char cp[16];


DESCRIPTION
     These calls are obsolete.  We include them in this release
     for compatability only.  However, we do not encourage their
     continued use, and we cannot promise their continued sup-
     port.

     The DOMAIN/IX function set_version allows programs to
     specify the version of DOMAIN/IX - AT&T UNIX System V or
     Berkeley 4.2 UNIX -  that will be used to define arguments
     and semantics for certain system and library functions.
     Valid string arguments are "bell" and "berkeley".  The
     default version is "bell".  The selected version is inher-
     ited across program invocation, exec(2), and by forked chil-
     dren.

     The DOMAIN/IX function get_version returns a string identi-
     fying the version of UNIX (Bell UNIX System V or Berkeley
     UNIX) currently interpreting arguments and semantics for
     certain system and library functions.  It returns either
     "bell" or "berkeley".
