SYNOPSYS¶
#include "mlo.h"
lofig_list ∗getlofig(figname, mode)
char ∗figname;
char mode;
PARAMETERS¶
- figname
- Name of the figure to be created
- mode
- Demanded mode for the figure
DESCRIPTION¶
getlofig returns a pointer to the figure called
figname with the
warranty that the expected information is present in memory.
If
mode is
'A' then the figure has all its lists filled, else the
figure may either be complete or interface only.
This function allows to completly mask disk access for applications programs. If
the figure is in memory, with the specified
mode, then the function
returns the appropriate pointer. Else, the function performs a call to the
loadlofig(3) and returns a pointer to the loaded figure.
RETURN VALUE¶
getlofig returns a pointer to the wanted figure.
ERRORS¶
getlofig cannot give any errors, but the subsequent calls it performs to
parsers do. So the source of trouble may be the call to
getlofig. See
loadlofig(3) for details.
EXAMPLE¶
#include "mlo.h"
lofig_list ∗na2_y()
{
/∗ find in memory or load from disk na2_y ∗/
return getlofig("na2_y", 'A');
}
