TPFDF Restricted C Language Functions: Reference

This chapter documents Product-Sensitive Programming Interface information.

The functions in this section are TPFDF internal functions used to perform system functions. There is no guarantee that the programming interface to these functions will not change. The use of these functions should be restricted to minimize the effect of any changes.

This chapter contains an alphabetic listing of the TPFDF restricted C language functions. The description of each function includes the following information:

Format: Provides the function prototype and a description of each parameter and variable.

Entry Requirements: Lists any special conditions that must be true when you use the function.

Normal Return: Lists what is returned when the function has completed processing successfully.

Error Return: Lists what is returned when the function cannot complete processing successfully.

Programming Considerations: Lists any additional considerations for using the function, including any restrictions or limitations.

Examples: Provides one or more examples that show you how to code the function.

Related Functions: Lists where to find information about related functions.
