NAME
dup, dup2 - duplicate an existing file descriptor
SYNOPSIS
#include <unistd.h>
int dup(int oldd)
int dup2(int oldd, int newd)
FUNCTION
Dup() duplicates an existing object descriptor and returns its value
to the calling program (newd = dup(oldd)). The argument oldd is a
small nonnegative integer index in the program's descriptor table.
The value must be less than the size of the table, which is returned
by getdtablesize(). The new descriptor returned by the call is the
lowest numbered descriptor currently not in use by the program.
The object referenced by the descriptor does not distinguish between
oldd and newd in any way. Thus if newd and oldd are duplicate
references to an open file, read() and write() calls all move a single
pointer into the file, and append mode, non-blocking I/O and
asynchronous I/O options are shared between the references. If a
separate pointer into the file is desired, a different object
reference to the file must be obtained by issuing an additional open()
call. The close-on-exec flag on the new file descriptor is unset.
In dup2(), the value of the new descriptor newd is specified. If this
descriptor is already in use, the descriptor is first deallocated as
if a close() call had been done first.
RETURN VALUES
The value -1 is returned if an error occurs in either call. The
external variable errno indicates the cause of the error.
BUGS
The current UFB implementation for SAS C allows only sockets to be
duplicated.
ERRORS
Dup() and dup2() fail if:
[EBADF] Oldd or newd is not a valid active descriptor
[EMFILE] Too many descriptors are active.
SEE ALSO
accept(), open(), close(), socket(), getdtablesize()
STANDARDS
Dup() and dup2() are expected to conform to IEEE Std 1003.1-1988
(``POSIX'').
