mcTBloadDesc — Load dataset descriptor table
#include <memcom.h> mcRTable* mcTBloadDesc(int handle, const char* name);
mcTBloadDesc loads a descriptor of a
dataset from a database in memory, creating a structure of type
mcRTable. If completed successfully, the function
creates a relational table, loads the descriptor from the database,
and returns a pointer to the table in memory. Otherwise, 0 is
returned and the error code can be retrieved by the function
mcErrStatus. If the descriptor of the set name
is not defined, 0 is returned and a warning is flagged in
mcErrStatus. To free the descriptor table from
memory make use of mcTBfree.
handleDatabase handle (input).
nameName of dataset from which the descriptor is loaded in memory (input).
The existence of a dataset descriptor can be verified by means
of mcDBinqSetAtt.
If the descriptor exists, the dsize field of the
mcSetAttributes structure is non-zero.
