xdr_vector(3)                       CLIX                       xdr_vector(3)



  NAME

    xdr_vector - Library function for external data representation

  LIBRARY

    Berkeley Software Distribution Library (libbsd.a)

  SYNOPSIS

    #include <sys/xdr.h>

    xdr_vector(
      XDR *xdrs ,
      char *arrp ,
      uint size ,
      uint elsize ,
      xdrproc_t elproc );

  PARAMETERS

    xdrs     Specifies the address of the XDR handle.

    arrp     Specifies the address of the pointer to an array.

    size     Specifies the number of elements in an array.

    elsize   Specifies the size in bytes of each array element.

    elproc   Specifies the filter function for one element.

  DESCRIPTION

    The xdr_vector() function allows C programmers to describe arbitrary data
    structures in a machine-independent fashion.  Data for remote procedure
    calls are transmitted using this function.

    The xdr_vector() function is a filter primitive that translates between
    fixed-length arrays and their corresponding external representations.  The
    arrp parameter is the address of the pointer to the array, while size is
    the element count of the array.  The elsize parameter is the sizeof each
    of the array's elements, and elproc is an XDR filter that translates
    between the array elements' C form, and their external representation.

  RETURN VALUES

    If successful, this function returns 1.  Otherwise, it returns 0.
