NAME

       genders_getnodename - get the current node name

SYNOPSIS

       #include <genders.h>

       int genders_getnodename(genders_t handle, char *node, int len);

DESCRIPTION

       genders_getnodename()  retrieves  the  name of the node that the function is being called from.  The node
       name returned is the shortened hostname of the node and is stored in the buffer pointed to be node.   len
       should  indicate  the  length of the buffer.  The node returned by genders_getnodename() is the shortened
       hostname of the node.

       To avoid passing in a buffer that is not large enough to store the  node  name,  genders_getmaxnodelen(3)
       should be used to determine the minimum buffer size that should be used.

RETURN VALUES

       On success, 0 is returned.  On error, -1 is returned, and an error code is returned in handle.  The error
       code can be retrieved via genders_errnum(3) , and a description of the error code can  be  retrieved  via
       genders_strerror(3).  Error codes are defined in genders.h.
