.SH NAME
h_errno \- error return value for network database operations
.SH SYNOPSIS
.LP
\fB#include <netdb.h> \fP
.SH DESCRIPTION
.LP
This method of returning errors is used only in connection with obsolescent
functions.
.LP
The \fI<netdb.h>\fP header provides a declaration of \fIh_errno\fP
as a
modifiable lvalue of type \fBint\fP.
.LP
It is unspecified whether \fIh_errno\fP is a macro or an identifier
declared with external linkage. If a macro definition is
suppressed in order to access an actual object, or a program defines
an identifier with the name \fIh_errno\fP, the behavior is
undefined.
.SH RETURN VALUE
.LP
None.
.SH ERRORS
.LP
No errors are defined.
.LP
\fIThe following sections are informative.\fP
.SH EXAMPLES
.LP
None.
.SH APPLICATION USAGE
.LP
Applications should obtain the definition of \fIh_errno\fP by the
inclusion of the \fI<netdb.h>\fP header.
.SH RATIONALE
.LP
None.
.SH FUTURE DIRECTIONS
.LP
\fIh_errno\fP may be withdrawn in a future version.
