xdr_getpos()

Format

#include <rpc.h>
     u_int
     xdr_getpos(xdrs)
     XDR *xdrs;

Parameters

xdrs: Specifies the pointer to an XDR stream.

Usage

The xdr_getpos() call is a macro that invokes the get-position routine associated with the XDR stream, xdrs. A desirable feature of XDR streams is that simple arithmetic works with this number, although the XDR stream instances do not guarantee this.

Return codes

An unsigned integer, which indicates the position of the XDR byte stream.
