<p>The <strong>taddr2uaddr()</strong> function translates a transport-specific
(local) address to a transport-independent (universal) address.</p>
<br>
<h3>Parameters</h3>
<dl>
<dt><strong>nconf</strong> &nbsp;(Input)&nbsp;</dt>
<dd>The transport for which the address is valid.<br>
<br>
</dd>
<dt><strong>addr</strong> &nbsp;(Input)&nbsp;</dt>
<dd>The address to be translated to the universal representation.</dd>
</dl>
<br>
<h3>Authorities</h3>
<p>No authorization is required.</p>
<br>
<h3>Return Value</h3>
<table cellpadding="5">
<!-- cols="15 85" -->
<tr>
<td valign="top"><em>universal address</em></td>
<td valign="top">A string that contains the universal address is returned if
the function <strong>taddr2uaddr()</strong> was successful.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td valign="top"><em>NULL</em></td>
<td valign="top">A NULL pointer is returned if the function
<strong>taddr2uaddr()</strong> was not successful. The <em>nd_errno</em> global
variable (defined in <strong>&lt;netdir.h&gt;</strong>) is set to indicate the
error.</td>
</tr>
</table>
<br>
<br>
<h3>Error Conditions</h3>
<p>If the function <strong>taddr2uaddr()</strong> is not successful,
<em>nd_errno</em> usually indicates the following error:</p>
<table cellpadding="5">
<!-- cols="15 85" -->
<tr>
<td valign="top"><em>[ND_BADARG]</em></td>
<td valign="top">Bad argument passed.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td valign="top"><em>[ND_SYSTEM]</em></td>
<td valign="top">A damaged object was encountered. The damaged object cannot be
used.</td>
</tr>

<h3>Error Messages</h3>
<table width="100%" cellpadding="5">
<!-- cols="15 85" -->
<tr>
<th align="left" valign="top">Message ID</th>
<th align="left" valign="top">Error Message Text</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="15%" valign="top">CPF9872 E</td>
<td width="85%" valign="top">Program or service program &amp;1 in library
&amp;2 ended. Reason code &amp;3.</td>
</tr>
</table>
<br>
<br>
<h3>Usage Notes</h3>
<p><strong>taddr2uaddr()</strong> translates the address pointed to by
<em>addr</em> and returns a transport independent character representation of
the address (universal address).</p>
<p>The caller is responsible to free the returned universal address when
done.</p>
<br>
<h3>Example</h3>
<p>See <a href="../apiref/aboutapis.htm#codedisclaimer">Code disclaimer information</a>
for information pertaining to code examples.</p>
<p>The following example shows how <strong>taddr2uaddr()</strong> is used:</p>
<pre>
#include &lt;netconfig.h&gt;
#include &lt;netdir.h&gt;

void *handlep; /* A handle into network selection */
struct netconfig *nconf; /* Transport information */

struct netbuf *netbufp; /* The address of the service */
int i; /* The number of addresses */
char *uaddr; /* Service universal address */
/* Initialize the network selection mechanism */
if (handlep = setnetconfig()) == (void *)NULL)

endnetconfig(handlep);
exit(1);
}
/* Convert the transport-specific address into universal address
* notation and print it.
*/

{
