ldlseek(3X)                                           ldlseek(3X)



NAME
     ldlseek, ldnlseek - seek to line number entries of a section
     of a common object file

SYNOPSIS
     #include <stdio.h>
     #include <filehdr.h>
     #include <ldfcn.h>

     int ldlseek(ldptr, sectindx)
     LDFILE *ldptr;
     unsigned short sectindx;

     int ldnlseek(ldptr, sectname)
     LDFILE *ldptr;
     char *sectname;

DESCRIPTION
     ldlseek seeks to the line number entries of the section
     specified by sectindx of the common object file currently
     associated with ldptr.

     ldnlseek seeks to the line number entries of the section
     specified by sectname.

     ldlseek and ldnlseek return SUCCESS or FAILURE.  ldlseek
     fails if sectindx is greater than the number of sections in
     the object file; ldnlseek fails if there is no section name
     corresponding to *sectname.  Either function fails if the
     specified section has no line number entries or if it cannot
     seek to the specified line number entries.

     Note that the first section has an index of one.

     Programs using this routine must be loaded with the object
     file access library libld.a.
