endnetent(3) -- get network entry
|
The getnetent(), getnetbyname(), and getnetbyaddr() functions each return a pointer to an object with the following structure describing an internet network. This structure contains either the informa... |
endnetgrent(3) -- netgroup database operations
|
These functions operate on the netgroup database file /etc/netgroup which is described in netgroup(5). The database defines a set of netgroups, each made up of one or more triples: (host, user, domain... |

endnetpath(3) -- get /etc/netconfig entry corresponding to NETPATH component
|
The routines described in this page provide the application access to the system network configuration database, /etc/netconfig, as it is ``filtered'' by the NETPATH environment variable (see enviro... |
endprotoent(3) -- get protocol entry
|
The getprotoent(), getprotobyname(), and getprotobynumber() functions each return a pointer to an object with the following structure containing the broken-out fields of a line in the network protocol... |
endpwent(3) -- password database operations
|
These functions operate on the password database file which is described in passwd(5). Each entry in the database is defined by the structure passwd found in the include file : struct passwd { ... |
endrpcent(3) -- get RPC entry
|
The getrpcent(), getrpcbyname(), and getrpcbynumber() functions each return a pointer to an object with the following structure containing the broken-out fields of a line in the rpc program number dat... |
endservent(3) -- get service entry
|
The getservent(), getservbyname(), and getservbyport() functions each return a pointer to an object with the following structure containing the broken-out fields of a line in the network services data... |
endttyent(3) -- get ttys file entry
|
The getttyent(), and getttynam() functions each return a pointer to an object, with the following structure, containing the broken-out fields of a line from the tty description file. struct ttyent { c... |
endusershell(3) -- get valid user shells
|
The getusershell() function returns a pointer to a valid user shell as defined by the system manager in the shells database as described in shells(5). If the shells database is not available, getusers... |
endvfsent(3) -- manage virtual file system modules
|
The getvfsent() function provides convenient access to a list of installed virtual file system modules managed by the kernel. It steps through the list of file systems one at a time. A null pointer is... |
endwin(3) -- curses screen initialization and manipulation routines
|
initscr is normally the first curses routine to call when initializing a program. A few special routines sometimes need to be called before it; these are slk_init, filter, ripoffline, use_env. For mul... |
end_dialog(3) -- provide a simple ncurses-based GUI interface
|
The dialog library attempts to provide a fairly simplistic set of fixedpresentation menus, input boxes, gauges, file requestors and other general purpose GUI (a bit of a stretch, since it uses ncurses... |
ENSURE(3) -- assertion system
|
The REQUIRE(), ENSURE(), INSIST(), and INVARIANT() macros evaluate a boolean expression, and if it is false, they invoke the current assertion failure callback. The default callback will print a messa... |
ENSURE_ERR(3) -- assertion system
|
The REQUIRE(), ENSURE(), INSIST(), and INVARIANT() macros evaluate a boolean expression, and if it is false, they invoke the current assertion failure callback. The default callback will print a messa... |
erand48(3) -- pseudo random number generators and initialization routines
|
The rand48() family of functions generates pseudo-random numbers using a linear congruential algorithm working on integers 48 bits in size. The particular formula employed is r(n+1) = (a * r(n) + c) m... |
