Description

ldnlseek- seek to line number entries of section specified by sectname

The ldlseek function seeks to the line number entries of the section specified by sectindx of the common object file currently associated with ldptr.

The ldnlseek function seeks to the line number entries of the section specified by sectname.

The ldlseek and ldnlseek functions return SUCCESS or FAILURE. ldlseek fails if sectindx is greater than the number of sections in the object file; ldnlseek fails if there is no section name corresponding with sectname. Either function fails if the specified section has no line number entries or if it cannot seek to the specified line number entries.

Note that the first section has an index of one.
