elf and stores it into the location pointed
to by argument
ndxptr.
Function

section name string table to argument
ndx.
These routines allow applications to process both normal ELF objects and ELF
objects that use extended section numbering uniformly.
These functions return a non-zero value if successful, or zero in case of an
error.
These functions can fail with the following errors:
-
-
- [
ELF_E_ARGUMENT
]
- A NULL value was passed in for argument
elf.
-
-
- [
ELF_E_ARGUMENT
]
- Argument elf was not for
an ELF file.
-
-
- [
ELF_E_ARGUMENT
]
- Argument elf lacks an ELF
Executable header.
-
-
- [
ELF_E_ARGUMENT
]
- Argument ndx contained a
value in the reserved range of section indices.
