SYNOPSIS
#include <DtMmdb.h>
const char* DtMmdbSectionGetShortTitle(
DtMmdbInfoRequest* request,
unsigned int* length);
DESCRIPTION
The DtMmdbSectionGetShortTitle function returns the short title for the
specified section. Do not use the free function on the returned
pointer. Table lookup is involved if the section identifier is speci‐
fied by the locator_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,
DtMmdbSectionGetShortTitle uses the locator_ptr value.
length Specifies the variable to receive the length of the returned
short title, if the returned pointer to the title is not
NULL.
RETURN VALUE
If DtMmdbSectionGetShortTitle completes successfully, it returns a
pointer to a NULL-terminated short title character string. If it fails,
it returns a NULL pointer.
