lrt_Fldid

Maps a field name to a field identifier.

FLDID lrt_Fldid( char *name );

The lrt_Fldid function provides a run-time translation of a field name to its field identifier. The first invocation causes space to be dynamically allocated for the field tables and the tables to be loaded.

Return Values

If the function succeeds, it returns a FLDID corresponding to its field name parameter. FLDIDis the mapped field identifier.

The function returns BADFLDID on error, and sets Ferror to indicate the error condition.

Parameterization

The following argument can be parameterized using standard parameterization: name

Example

In the following example, the lrt_Fldid function specifies the ACCOUNT_ID and ACCOUNT_IDS field identifiers. The example for lrt_Fldid32 is identical except for the function name.

int rc;
lr_output_message("id is %s", lrt_Fname(8302));
lr_output_message("name is %d", lrt_Fldid("ACCOUNT_ID"));
lr_output_message("name is %d", lrt_Fldid("ACCOUNT_IDS"));
rc = lrt_getFerror();
lr_output_message("error code is %d", rc);
lr_output_message("error message is %s", lrt_Fstrerror(rc));
