Name
       ldfhread - read the file header of a common object file

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

       int ldfhread (ldptr, filehead)
       LDFILE *ldptr;
       FILHDR *filehead;

Description
       The  function  reads the file header of the common object file currently associated with ldptr .  It reads the file header into the area of
       memory beginning at filehead.

       The function returns success or failure.  If ldfhread cannot read the file header, it fails.

       Usually, can be avoided by using the macro HEADER(ldptr) defined in <ldfcn.h> see Note that the information in HEADER is swapped, if neces-
       sary.  The information in any field, fieldname, of the file header can be accessed using HEADER(ldptr).fieldname.
