DtMmdbSectionGetData(library call)	    DtMmdbSectionGetData(library call)

NAME
       DtMmdbSectionGetData — obtains the data for a section

SYNOPSIS
       #include <DtMmdb.h>
       const char* DtMmdbSectionGetData(
       DtMmdbInfoRequest* request,
       unsigned int* length);

DESCRIPTION
       The  DtMmdbSectionGetData  function  returns the data for the specified
       section. Do not use the free function on the  returned  pointer.	 Table
       lookup  is involved if the section identifier is specified by the loca‐
       tor_ptr field.

ARGUMENTS
       request	 Specifies the bookcase in the bookcase descriptor  field  and
		 either	 the section's Database Engine identifier (in the pri‐
		 mary_oid field) or the section's logical identifier  (in  the
		 locator_ptr  field).  If  both	 of these fields have a value,
		 DtMmdbSectionGetData ignores the locator_ptr value.

       length	 Specifies the variable to receive the length of the  returned
		 data, if the returned pointer to the data is not NULL.

RETURN VALUE
       If DtMmdbSectionGetData completes successfully, it returns a pointer to
       a NULL-terminated data string.  If it fails, it returns a NULL pointer.

EXAMPLE
       The following shows how a DtMmdbSectionGetData call might be coded.

       DtMmdbInfoRequest request;
       /* fill the request */
       DtMmdbSectionGetData(&request, 0);
