NAME
       gd_raw_filename -- retrieve the pathname of a binary file in a dirfile

SYNOPSIS
       #include <getdata.h>

       const char *gd_raw_filename(DIRFILE *dirfile, const char *field_code);

DESCRIPTION
       The gd_raw_filename() function retrieves the pathname of the file backing the RAW field specified by field_code in the dirfile specified by
       dirfile.  If field_code contains a valid representation suffix, it will be ignored.

RETURN VALUE
       On success, gd_raw_filename() returns the full pathname of the binary file associated with the specified field.	On error, NULL is returned
       and the dirfile error is set to a non-zero error value.	Possible error values are:

       GD_E_ALLOC
	       The library was unable to allocate memory.

       GD_E_BAD_CODE
	       The field specified by field_code was not found.

       GD_E_BAD_DIRFILE
	       The supplied dirfile was invalid.

       GD_E_BAD_FIELD_TYPE
	       The field specified by field_code was not a RAW field.

       GD_E_BAD_REPR
	       The representation suffix specified in field_code was not recognised.

       GD_E_UNKNOWN_ENCODING
	       The encoding scheme of the specified field could not be determined or was not understood by GetData.

       The  dirfile error may be retrieved by calling gd_error(3).  A descriptive error string for the last error encountered can be obtained from
       a call to gd_error_string(3).
