.Dt DlpReadOpenDBInfo 3
.Sh NAME
.Nm DlpReadOpenDBInfo
.Nd read information about a PalmOS database
.Sh LIBRARY
.Pa libpconn
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.Fd #include <palm.h>
.Fd #include <pconn/pconn.h>
.Ft int
.Fn DlpReadOpenDBInfo "PConnection *pconn" "ubyte handle" "struct dlp_opendbinfo *dbinfo"
.Sh DESCRIPTION
.Nm
reads information about a database on the Palm.
.Pp
.Fa handle
is the database handle given by
.Nm DlpOpenDB .
.Pp
.Fa dbinfo
is filled in with information about the database. The
.Ft dlp_opendbinfo
structure is trivial:
.Bd -literal -offset indent
struct dlp_opendbinfo
{
uword numrecs;
};
.Ed
where
.Fa numrecs
is the number of records or resources in the database.
.Sh RETURN VALUE
.Nm
returns 0 if successful, or a negative value otherwise.
.Sh NOTES
The fact that this function takes an entire structure for a single
value may be considered a bug. However, with a name like
.Dq read open DB info,
it seems likely that in future versions, this function might return
far more information.
