LDSSEEK(3X)							   LDSSEEK(3X)

NAME    [Toc]    [Back]

     ldsseek, ldnsseek - seek to an indexed/named section of a common object
     file

SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

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

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

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

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

     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.  If sectindx is greater
     than the number of	sections in the	object file, ldsseek fails; if there
     is	no section name	corresponding with sectname, ldnsseek fails.  If there
     is	no section data	for the	specified section or if	it cannot seek to the
     specified section,	either function	fails.

     NOTE: The first section has an index of one.

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