NAME

6       getutmp, getutmpx - copy utmp structure to utmpx, and vice versa
7

SYNOPSIS

9       #define _GNU_SOURCE
10       #include <utmpx.h>
11
12        void getutmp(const struct utmpx *ux, struct utmp *u);
13        void getutmpx(const struct utmp *u, struct utmpx *ux);
14

DESCRIPTION

16       The getutmp() function copies the fields of the utmpx structure pointed
17       to by ux to the corresponding fields of the utmp structure  pointed  to
18       by u.  The getutmpx() function performs the converse operation.
19

RETURN VALUE

21       These functions do not return a value.
22

VERSIONS

24       These functions first appeared in glibc in version 2.1.1.
25

CONFORMING TO

27       These  functions  are  nonstandard,  but appear on a few other systems,
28       such as Solaris and NetBSD.
29

NOTES

31       These functions exist primarily for compatibility  with  other  systems
32       where  the  utmp  and utmpx structures contain different fields, or the
33       size of corresponding fields differs.  On  Linux,  the  two  structures
34       contain the same fields, and the fields have the same sizes.
