get_Rx_cserrno(3N)                                get_Rx_cserrno(3N)


       NAME
             get_Rx_cserrno, set_Rx_cserrno - get/set Rx_cserrno value

       SYNOPSIS
             cc [options] file -lnsl
             #include <rx.h>
             #include <cs.h>
             int get_Rx_cserrno(void);
             int set_Rx_cserrno(int value);

       DESCRIPTION
             The functions get_Rx_cserrno and set_Rx_cserrno retrieve and
             set the value of Rx_cserrno in multi-threaded programs.  These
             functions are needed in multi-threaded environments because
             each thread keeps its own copy of Rx_cserrno.

             After a failed call to rexecve, if Rx_errno is set to
             RXE_CONNPROB, the value of Rx_cserrno indicates the specific
             connection server problem.

          Return Values
             get_Rx_cserrno returns the value of Rx_cserrno, or -1 in case
             of error.

             set_Rx_cserrno sets Rx_cserrno to value, and returns 0 for
             success and -1 for failure.

       USAGE
             While get_Rx_cserrno and set_Rx_cserrno are designed for use
             in multi-threaded applications, they are available for use in
             non-reentrant code and may be incorporated if a need is
             anticipated to convert to reentrant code later on.
