Standard C Library Functions                        doorcred(3C)



NAME
     doorcred - return credential  information  associated  with
     the client

SYNOPSIS
     cc -mt [ flag... ] file... [ library... ]
     #include 

     int doorcred(doorcredt *info);


DESCRIPTION
     The  doorcred()  function  returns  credential  information
     associated  with  the   client  (if any) of the current door
     invocation.


     The contents of the  info  argument  include  the  following
     fields:

       uidt   dceuid;        /* Effective uid of client */
       gidt   dcegid;        /* Effective gid of client */
       uidt   dcruid;        /* Real uid of client */
       gidt   dcrgid;        /* Real gid of client */
       pidt   dcpid;         /* pid of client */



     The credential information associated with the client refers
     to  the  information  from  the immediate caller; not neces-
     sarily from the first thread in a chain of door calls.

RETURN VALUES
     Upon successful completion, doorcred()  returns  0.  Other-
     wise,  doorcred() returns -1 and sets errno to indicate the
     error.

ERORS
     The  doorcred() function will fail if:

     EFAULT    The address of the info argument is invalid.


     EINVAL    There is no associated door client.


USAGE
     The doorcred() function is  obsolete.  Applications  should
     use the doorucred(3C) function in place of doorcred().
