gd_putdata64(3) GETDATA gd_putdata64(3)NAME
gd_putdata64 -- write data to a dirfile database with largefile support
SYNOPSIS
#define _LARGEFILE64_SOURCE
#include <getdata.h>
size_t gd_putdata64(DIRFILE *dirfile, const char *field_code, off64_t first_frame, off64_t first_sample, size_t num_frames, size_t
num_samples, gd_type_t data_type, const void *data_out);
DESCRIPTION
This version of gd_putdata(3) uses a 64-bit offset type, even if off_t is a 32-bit type. It is only available if one defines _LARGE-
FILE64_SOURCE. If off_t is a 64-bit type (i.e. if _FILE_OFFSET_BITS is defined to be 64), this function will be called gd_putdata(). Oth-
erwise, gd_putdata() will be a version of this function which uses a 32-bit off_t.

gd_put_string(3) GETDATA gd_put_string(3)NAME
gd_put_string -- retrieve a string from a dirfile database
SYNOPSIS
#include <getdata.h>
int gd_put_string(DIRFILE *dirfile, const char *field_code, const char *data_in);
DESCRIPTION
The gd_put_string() function queries a dirfile(5) database specified by dirfile and sets the STRING field_code , which should not contain a
representation suffix, to the value specified in data_in.
The dirfile argument must point to a valid DIRFILE object previously created by a call to gd_open(3).
Because string values are stored in the dirfile metadata, the new value of field_code won't be written to disk until the dirfile metadata
is flushed with gd_metaflush(3), or until the dirfile is closed.
RETURN VALUE
On success, gd_put_string() returns the length of the string stored, including the trailing NUL character. On error, it returns 0 and sets
the dirfile error to a non-zero value. Possible error values are:
GD_E_BAD_CODE
The field specified by field_code was not found in the database.
GD_E_BAD_DIRFILE
An invalid dirfile was supplied.
GD_E_BAD_FIELD_TYPE
The supplied field_code referred to a field of type other than STRING. The caller should use gd_putdata(3), or gd_put_constant(3)
instead.
GD_E_BAD_REPR
The representation suffix specified in field_code was not recognised.
GD_E_BAD_TYPE
An invalid data_type was specified.
GD_E_INTERNAL_ERROR
An internal error occurred in the library while trying to perform the task. This indicates a bug in the library. Please report
the incident to the maintainer.
GD_E_PROTECTED
The fragment containing the string was protected from change.
The dirfile error may be retrieved by calling gd_error(3). A descriptive error string for the last error encountered may be obtained from
a call to gd_error_string(3).
