genders_parse

GENDERS_PARSE(3)						    LIBGENDERS							  GENDERS_PARSE(3)

NAME

       genders_parse - determine errors with a genders file

SYNOPSIS

       #include <genders.h>

       int genders_parse(genders_t handle, const char *filename, FILE *stream);

DESCRIPTION

       genders_parse() parses the genders file indicated by filename and outputs information to stream about parse errors in the genders file.	If
       filename is NULL, the default genders file will be checked.  If stream is NULL, information will be output to standard error.

RETURN VALUES

       On success, the number of parse errors discovered is returned.  If there are no errors, 0 is returned.  On error, -1 is	returned,  and	an
       error  code  is	returned  in  handle.	The error code can be retrieved via genders_errnum(3) , and a description of the error code can be
       retrieved via genders_strerror(3).  Error codes are defined in genders.h.

ERRORS

       GENDERS_ERR_NULLHANDLE
	      The handle parameter is NULL.  The genders handle must be created with genders_handle_create(3).

       GENDERS_ERR_OPEN
	      The genders file indicated by filename cannot be opened for reading.

       GENDERS_ERR_OVERFLOW
	      A line in the genders database exceeds the maximum allowed length.

       GENDERS_ERR_MAGIC
	      handle has an incorrect magic number.  handle does not point to a genders handle	or  handle  has  been  destroyed  by  genders_han-
	      dle_destroy(3).

FILES

       /usr/include/genders.h
