NAME

       isastream - test a file descriptor (STREAMS)

SYNOPSIS

       #include <stropts.h>

       int isastream(int fildes);

DESCRIPTION

       The isastream() function shall test whether fildes, an open file descriptor, is associated with a STREAMS-based file.

RETURN VALUE

       Upon successful completion, isastream() shall return 1 if fildes refers to a STREAMS-based file and 0 if not.  Otherwise, isastream() shall
       return -1 and set errno to indicate the error.

ERRORS

       The isastream() function shall fail if:

       EBADF  The fildes argument is not a valid open file descriptor.
