QlgReaddir()--Read Directory Entry (using NLS-enabled path name)


  Syntax
 #include <sys/types.h>
 #include <dirent.h>

 struct dirent_lg *QlgReaddir(DIR *dirp);  
  Service Program Name: QP0LLIB1

  Default Public Authority: *USE

  Threadsafe: No; see Usage Notes for readdir().

The QlgReaddir() function, like the readdir() function, returns a pointer to a structure describing the next directory entry in the directory stream associated with dirp. The difference is that the QlgReaddir() function returns a pointer to a dirent_lg structure, while readdir() returns a pointer to a dirent structure.

The QlgReaddir() function converts the directory entry name into the CCSID (coded character set identifier) of the job at the time of the call to opendir(), or to the CCSID specified on the call to QlgOpendir(). If the directory entry name cannot be represented in that CCSID, then that directory entry will not be returned by QlgReaddir() and no error indication will occur.

QlgOpendir() allows the CCSID to be specified in the Qlg_Path_Name_T structure. See QlgOpendir()--Open Directory (using NLS-enabled path name) for more information.

Limited information about the dirp parameter is provided here. For more information about the dirp parameter and for a discussion of authorities required, and related information, see readdir()--Read Directory Entry.


Parameters

dirp
(Input) A pointer to DIR that refers to the open directory stream to be read. This pointer is returned by QlgOpendir() or opendir().

Return Value

value
QlgReaddir() was successful. The value returned is a pointer to a dirent_lg structure describing the next directory entry in the directory stream.

A dirent_lg structure has the following contents:



NULL pointer
One of the following has occurred:

  • QlgReaddir() reached the end of the directory stream. The errno global variable is not changed.
  • QlgReaddir() was not successful. The errno is set.

    while ((entry = QlgReaddir(dir)) != NULL)
