        _________________________________________________________________
        ldsseek                                                Subroutine
        seek to an indexed section of an executable file in DG/UX
        _________________________________________________________________


        SYNTAX

        #include <stdio.h>
        #include <sys/types.h>
        #include <filehdr.h>
        #include <ldfcn.h>

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


        DESCRIPTION

        Ldsseek seeks to the section specified by sectindx of the
        executable file currently associated with ldptr.

        Ldsseek returns SUCCESS or FAILURE.  Ldsseek will fail if
        sectindx is greater than the number of sections in the file, if
        there is no section data for the specified section, or if it
        cannot seek to the specified section.

        Because the order of sections can change, use the mnenonic
        section names specified in filehdr.h (see filehdr(4)).  Note that
        the first section has an index of 1.

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


        SEE ALSO

        ldclose(3X), ldopen(3X), ldshread(3X), ldfcn(4), filehdr(4).


        CAVEATS

        The executable file format is used only for executable files
        (load modules), not for object files.
