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, gd_nfragments() returns zero and sets the dirfile error to a
       non-zero value.  Possible error values are:

       GD_E_BAD_DIRFILE
               The supplied dirfile was invalid.

       The dirfile error may be retrieved by calling gd_error(3).  A descriptive error string for the last error
       encountered can be obtained from a call to gd_error_string(3).
