     LDLSEEK(S)                UNIX System V                LDLSEEK(S)



     Name
          ldlseek, ldnlseek - seek to line number entries of a section
          of a common object file

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

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

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

     Description
          The ldlseek function seeks to the line number entries of the
          section specified by sectindx of the common object file
          currently associated with ldptr.

          The ldnlseek function seeks to the line number entries of
          the section specified by sectname.

          The ldlseek and ldnlseek functions return SUCCESS or
          FAILURE.  ldlseek will fail if sectindx is greater than the
          number of sections in the object file; ldnlseek will fail if
          there is no section name corresponding with *sectname.
          Either function will fail if the specified section has no
          line number entries or if it cannot seek to the specified
          line number entries.

          Note that the first section has an index of one.

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