<p>The <strong>getpwuid()</strong> function returns a pointer to an object of
|
||
|
|
type <samp>struct passwd</samp> containing an entry from the user database with
|
||
|
|
a matching <em>UID</em>.</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<br>
|

|
|
<h3>Parameters</h3>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<dl>
|
||
|
|
<dt><strong><em>uid</em></strong></dt>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<dd>(Input) User ID.</dd>
|
||
|
|
</dl>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<br>
|
||
|
|
<h3>Authorities</h3>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>*READ authority is required to the user profile associated with the <em>
|
||
|
|
UID</em>. If the user does not have *READ authority, only the user name, user
|
||
|
|
ID, and group ID values are returned.</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p><strong>Note:</strong> Adopted authority is not used.</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<br>
|
||
|
|
<h3>Return Value</h3>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<dl compact>
|
||
|
|
<dt><em>struct passwd *</em></dt>
|

<dd><strong>getpwuid()</strong> was successful. The return value points to

static data of the format <samp>struct passwd</samp>, which is defined in the

|
<strong>pwd.h</strong> header file. This storage is overwritten on each call to
|
||
|
|
this function. This static storage area is also used by the <strong>
|
||
|
|
getpwnam()</strong> function. The <samp>struct passwd</samp> has the following
|

elements:<br>
