ldrseek(3X)             LIBRARY FUNCTIONS             ldrseek(3X)



NAME
     ldrseek, ldnrseek - seek to relocation entries of a  section
     of a common object file

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

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

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

DESCRIPTION
     Ldrseek seeks to  the  relocation  entries  of  the  section
     specified  by  sectindx  of the common object file currently
     associated with ldptr.

     Ldnrseek seeks to the  relocation  entries  of  the  section
     specified by sectname.

     Ldrseek and ldnrseek return SUCCESS or FAILURE.  If sectindx
     is  greater  than the number of sections in the object file,
     ldrseek fails; if there is  no  section  name  corresponding
     with sectname, ldnrseek fails.  If the specified section has
     no relocation entries or if it cannot seek to the  specified
     relocation entries, either function fails.

     NOTE: The first section has an index of one.

     The program must be loaded with the object file access  rou-
     tine library libmld.a.
