NAME
       ldsseek, ldnsseek - seek to an indexednamed section of a common object file

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

       int ldsseek (ldptr, sectindx)
       LDFILE *ldptr;
       unsigned short sectindx;

       int ldnsseek (ldptr, sectname)
       LDFILE *ldptr;
       char *sectname;

DESCRIPTION
       ldsseek seeks to the section specified by sectindx of the common object file currently associated with ldptr.

       ldnsseek seeks to the section specified by sectname.

       ldsseek	and  ldnsseek return SUCCESS or FAILURE.  If sectindx is greater than the number of sections in the object file, ldsseek fails; if
       there is no section name corresponding with sectname, ldnsseek fails.  If there is no section data for the specified section or if it  can-
       not seek to the specified section, either function fails.

       NOTE: The first section has an index of one.

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