NAME

       gd_nfragments — retrieve the number of format specification fragments in a dirfile

SYNOPSIS

       #include <getdata.h>

       int gd_nfragments(const DIRFILE *dirfile);

DESCRIPTION

       The  gd_nfragments()  function  queries  a  dirfile(5)  database  specified by dirfile and
       returns the total number of parsed format specification fragments in the database.

       The dirfile argument must point to a valid DIRFILE object previously created by a call  to
       gd_open(3).

RETURN VALUE

       Upon   successful   completion,   gd_nfragments()  returns  the  total  number  of  format
       specification fragments which are present in the dirfile.

       On error, this function return zero and store a negative-valued error code in the  DIRFILE
       object  which  may be retrieved by a subsequent call to gd_error(3).  Possible error codes
       are:

       GD_E_BAD_DIRFILE
               The supplied dirfile was invalid.

       A descriptive error string for the error may be obtained by calling gd_error_string(3).

HISTORY

       The get_nfragments() function appeared in GetData-0.4.0.

       In GetData-0.7.0, this function was renamed to gd_nfragments().
