ldsseek(3X)                    DG/UX 5.4R3.00                    ldsseek(3X)


NAME
       ldsseek, ldnsseek - seek to an indexednamed section of a common
       object file

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

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

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

DESCRIPTION
       Ldsseek seeks to the section specified by sectindx of the common
       object file currently associated with ldptr.

       Ldnsseek seeks to the section specified by sectname.

       Ldsseek and ldnsseek return SUCCESS or FAILURE.  Ldsseek will fail if
       sectindx is greater than the number of sections in the object file;
       ldnsseek will fail if there is no section name corresponding with
       sectname.  Either function will fail if there is no section data for
       the specified section or if it cannot seek to the specified section.

       Note that the first section has an index of 1.

       The program must be loaded with the object file access routine
       library libld.a.
