.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.Fd #include <unistd.h>
|
|
.Ft int
|
|
.Fn getgrouplist "const char *name" "int basegid" "int *groups" "int *ngroups"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn getgrouplist
|
|
function reads through the group file and calculates
|
|
the group access list for the user specified in
|
|
.Fa name .
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa basegid
|
|
is automatically included in the groups list.
|
|
Typically this value is given as
|
|
the group number from the password file.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The resulting group list is returned in the integer array pointed to by
|
|
.Fa groups .
|
|
The caller specifies the size of the
|
|
.Fa groups
|
|
array in the integer pointed to by
|
|
.Fa ngroups ;
|
|
the actual number of groups found is returned in
|
|
.Fa ngroups .
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn getgrouplist
|
|
function
|
|
returns \-1 if the size of the group list is too small to
|
|
hold all the user's groups.
|
|
Here, the group array will be filled with as many groups as will fit.
