NAME dce_cf_get_cell_name - Returns the primary name for the local cell SYNOPSIS #include <dce/dce_cf.h> void dce_cf_get_cell_name( char **cellname, error_status_t *status); PARAMETERS INPUT None. OUTPUT cellname - The address of a string pointer. This pointer will be set by the function to point to an allocated buffer that contains the cellname. OUTPUT status - Returns the status code from this operation. The status code is a value that indicates whether the routine completed successfully and if not, why not. Possible status codes and their meanings are as follows: dce_cf_st_ok Operation completed succesfully. dce_cf_e_file_open File open error. dce_cf_e_no_mem No memory available. dce_cf_e_no_match No match for key in the file. DESCRIPTION The dce_cf_get_cell_name() routine retrieves the primary name for the local cell. If the name is found, dce_cf_get_cell_name() returns an allocated (by a call to malloc()) copy of it in the cellname input parameter. Use free() to free the allocated copy when you no longer need it. The DCE 1.0 version of this routine is limited to processing lines of text whose length is less than 1024 characters. RETURN VALUES No value is returned.
