LL2_READ_ENTRY(3)          Programmers Manual          LL2_READ_ENTRY(3)

NAME

       ll2_read_entry - Reads one entry from database and returns that.

SYNOPSIS

       #include <lastlog2.h>

       int ll2_read_entry (struct ll2_context *context, const char
       *user, int64_t *ll_time, char tty, char rhost, char pam_service,
       char error);

DESCRIPTION

       Reads the first entry from database, defined in context, for user
       user. If context is NULL, the default database, defined in
       LL2_DEFAULT_DATABASE, will be taken.

           char    *error = NULL;
           const   char *user = "root";
           int64_t res_time;
           char    *res_tty = NULL;
           char    *res_rhost = NULL;
           char    *res_service = NULL;

           int ret = ll2_read_entry (NULL, user, &res_time, &res_tty, &res_rhost, &res_service, &error);

RETURN VALUE

       Returns 0 on success, -ENOMEM or -1 on other failure. error
       contains an error string if the return value is -1. error is not
       guaranteed to contain an error string, could also be NULL. error
       should be freed by the caller. If lastlog2 database does not
       exist at all, the errno ENOENT has been set and can be checked.

       The evaluated values are returned by ll_time, tty, rhost and
       pam_service.
