NAME
       ldahread - read the archive header of a member of an archive file

SYNOPSIS
       #include <stdio.h>
       #include <ar.h>

       #include <filehdr.h>
       #include <syms.h>
       #include <ldfcn.h>

       int ldahread (ldptr, arhead)
       LDFILE *ldptr;
       ARCHDR *arhead;

DESCRIPTION
       If  TYPE(ldptr)	is  the  archive  file magic number, ldahread reads the archive header of the common object file currently associated with
       ldptr into the area of memory beginning at arhead.

       ldahread returns SUCCESS or FAILURE.  If TYPE(ldptr) does not represent an archive file or if it cannot read the archive  header,  ldahread
       fails.

       The program must be loaded with the object file access routine library

       libmld.a.
