<p>The <strong>QlgGetpwuid()</strong> function returns a pointer to an object
of type <samp>struct qplg_passwd</samp> containing an entry from the user
database with a matching user ID (<em>UID</em>).</p>
<br>
<h3>Parameters</h3>
<dl>
<dt><strong><em>UID</em></strong></dt>
<dd>(Input) User ID.</dd>
</dl>
<p>The <samp>struct qplg_passwd</samp>, which is defined in the <strong>
pwd.h</strong> header file, has the following elements:</p>

<h3>Authorities</h3>
<p>*READ authority is required to the user profile associated with the <em>
UID</em>.</p>
<p><strong>Note:</strong> Adopted authority is not used.</p>
<br>
<h3>Return Value</h3>
<dl>
<dt><em>value</em></dt>
<dd><strong>QlgGetpwuid()</strong> was successful. The return value points to
static data that is overwritten on each call to this function. This static
storage area is also used by the <strong>QlgGetpwnam()</strong> function.<br>
<br>
</dd>
<dt><em>NULL pointer</em></dt>
<dd><strong>QlgGetpwuid()</strong> was not successful. The <em>errno</em>
global variable is set to indicate the error.</dd>
</dl>
<br>
<h3>Error Conditions</h3>
<p>If <strong>QlgGetpwuid()</strong> is not successful, <em>errno</em> usually
indicates one of the following errors. Under some conditions, <em>errno</em>
could indicate an error other than those listed here.</p>

<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 gets the user database information for the uid of 22.
The user name is MYUSER. The gid is 1012. The initial working directory is
/home/MYUSER. The initial user program is *LIBL/QCMD.</p>
<pre>
#include &lt;pwd.h&gt;
main()
{
struct qplg_passwd *pd;
if (NULL == (pd = QlgGetpwuid(22)))
perror(&quot;QlgGetpwuid() error.&quot;);
else
{
printf(&quot;The user name is: %s\n&quot;, pd-&gt;pw_name);
printf(&quot;The user id is: %u\n&quot;, pd-&gt;pw_uid);
printf(&quot;The group id is: %u\n&quot;, pd-&gt;pw_gid);
printf(&quot;The initial working directory length is: %d\n&quot;,
pd-&gt;pw_dir-&gt;Path_Length);
printf(&quot;The initial working directory CCSID is : %d\n&quot;,
pd-&gt;pw_dir-&gt;CCSID);
printf(&quot;The initial user program is: %s\n&quot;, pd-&gt;pw_shell);
}
}
</pre>
<p><strong>Output:</strong></p>
<pre>
The user name is: MYUSER
The user id is: 22
The group id is: 1012
The intial working directory length is: 24
The intial working directory CCSID is : 13488
