getrpcent
(), getrpcbyname
(), and
getrpcbynumber
(), each return a pointer to an object
with the following structure containing the broken-out fields of a line in the
rpc program number data base, /etc/rpc:
struct rpcent { char *r_name; /* name of server for this rpc program */ char **r_aliases; /* alias list */ long r_number; /* rpc program number */ };
The members of this structure are:
getrpcent
() reads the next line of the
file, opening the file if necessary.
setrpcent
() opens and rewinds the file. If
the stayopen flag is non-zero, the net data base will
not be closed after each call to getrpcent
() (either
directly, or indirectly through one of the other “getrpc”
calls).
endrpcent
() closes the file.
getrpcbyname
() and
getrpcbynumber
() sequentially search from the
beginning of the file until a matching rpc program name or program number is
found, or until end-of-file is encountered.
NULL
pointer is returned on
EOF
or error.
