LDAHREAD(3X)                                                      LDAHREAD(3X)



NAME
     ldahread - read the archive header of a member of an archive file

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


     int ldahread (ldptr, arhead)
     LDFILE *ldptr;
     ARCHDR *arhead;

DESCRIPTION
     If TYPE(ldptr) is the archive file magic number, ldahread reads the
     archive header of the common object file currently associated with ldptr
     into the area of memory beginning at arhead.

     ldahread returns SUCCESS or FAILURE.  If TYPE(ldptr) does not represent
     an archive file or if it cannot read the archive header, ldahread fails.

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