Dbxrewind()

PURPOSE

position access pointer to beginning of tag

SYNOPSIS

#include "dbl.h"
 
	int	dbxrewind(dbx)
 
	<input parameters>
	char	*dbx;		/* Tagged index file descriptor */
 
	<output parameters>
	none

RETURN VALUE

The dbxrewind() function returns 0 for success, or < 0 if an error occurs. See the section on return code values for a detailed list of return codes.

DESCRIPTION

The dbxrewind() function positions the access pointer at the beginning of the active tag in the specified tagged index file, .DBX.

EXAMPLE

The following example opens the table and tag index, goes to the bottom of the index, reads the previous key by position then by key, rewinds the index, reads the next 6 records in the index, reads the next record by key and then closes the files.
