ldtbread(3X)                      SDK R4.11                     ldtbread(3X)


NAME
       ldtbread - read an indexed symbol table entry of an object file

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

       int ldtbread (ldptr, symindex, symbol)
       LDFILE *ldptr;
       long symindex;
       SYMENT *symbol;

DESCRIPTION
       Ldtbread reads the symbol table entry specified by symindex of the
       object file currently associated with ldptr into the area of memory
       beginning at symbol.

       Ldtbread returns SUCCESS or FAILURE.  Ldtbread will fail if symindex
       is greater than the number of symbols in the object file or if it
       cannot read the specified symbol table entry.

       Note that the first symbol in the symbol table has an index of 0.

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