NAME

       telldir - current location of a named directory stream

SYNOPSIS

       #include <dirent.h>

       long int telldir(DIR *dirp);

DESCRIPTION

       The telldir() function obtains the current location associated with the directory stream specified by dirp.

       If  the	most recent operation on the directory stream was a seekdir(3C), the directory position returned from the telldir() is the same as
       that supplied as a loc argument for seekdir().

RETURN VALUES

       Upon successful completion, telldir() returns the current location of the specified directory stream.

ERRORS

       The telldir() function will fail if:

       EOVERFLOW       The current location of the directory cannot be stored in an object of type long.
