endnetent, getnetbyaddr, getnetbyname, getnetent, setnetent - network database
functions
Návod, kniha: POSIX Programmer's Manual
#include <netdb.h>
void endnetent(void);
struct netent *getnetbyaddr(uint32_t
net, int
type);
struct netent *getnetbyname(const char *
name);
struct netent *getnetent(void);
void setnetent(int
stayopen);
These functions shall retrieve information about networks. This information is
considered to be stored in a database that can be accessed sequentially or
randomly. The implementation of this database is unspecified.
The
setnetent() function shall open and rewind the database. If the
stayopen argument is non-zero, the connection to the
net
database shall not be closed after each call to
getnetent() (either
directly, or indirectly through one of the other
getnet*() functions),
and the implementation may maintain an open file descriptor to the database.
The
getnetent() function shall read the next entry of the database,
opening and closing a connection to the database as necessary.
The
getnetbyaddr() function shall search the database from the beginning,
and find the first entry for which the address family specified by
type
matches the
n_addrtype member and the network number
net matches
the
n_net member, opening and closing a connection to the database as
necessary. The
net argument shall be the network number in host byte
order.
The
getnetbyname() function shall search the database from the beginning
and find the first entry for which the network name specified by
name
matches the
n_name member, opening and closing a connection to the
database as necessary.
The
getnetbyaddr(),
getnetbyname(), and
getnetent()
functions shall each return a pointer to a
netent structure, the
members of which shall contain the fields of an entry in the network database.
The
endnetent() function shall close the database, releasing any open
file descriptor.
These functions need not be reentrant. A function that is not required to be
reentrant is not required to be thread-safe.
Upon successful completion,
getnetbyaddr(),
getnetbyname(), and
getnetent() shall return a pointer to a
netent structure if the
requested entry was found, and a null pointer if the end of the database was
reached or the requested entry was not found. Otherwise, a null pointer shall
be returned.
No errors are defined.
The following sections are informative.
None.
The
getnetbyaddr(),
getnetbyname(), and
getnetent()
functions may return pointers to static data, which may be overwritten by
subsequent calls to any of these functions.
None.
None.
