ldsseek, ldnsseek - seek to an indexed/named section of a COFF file

---

SYNOPSIS

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

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

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

AVAILABILITY

Available only on Sun 386i systems running a SunOS 4.0.x release or earlier. Not a SunOS 4.1 release feature.

DESCRIPTION

ldsseek() seeks to the section specified by sectindx of the COFF file currently associated with ldptr.

ldnsseek() seeks to the section specified by sectname.

ldsseek() and ldnsseek() return SUCCESS or FAILURE. ldsseek() will fail if sectindx is greater than the number of sections in the object file; ldnsseek() will fail if there is no section name corresponding with sectname. Either function will fail if there is no section data for the specified section or if it cannot seek to the specified section.

Note: the first section has an index of one.

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