DtDtsDataTypeToAttributeList(3)

     NAME
          DtDtsDataTypeToAttributeList - get a list of attributes for
          a data type

     SYNOPSIS
          #include <Dt/Dts.h>

          DtDtsAttribute **DtDtsDataTypeToAttributeList(const char *datatype,
                                                        const char *opt_name);

     DESCRIPTION
          The DtDtsDataTypeToAttributeList() function returns a list
          of attributes for a data type.

          The datatype argument is a pointer to a data type name
          string.

          The opt_name argument can be used to specify a name to be
          associated with the data type.  If the opt_name argument is
          not NULL, it is used as a pseudo file name in typing;
          otherwise, certain attributes may be returned as NULL
          because the filename components could not be determined.

     RETURN VALUE
          Upon successful completion, the
          DtDtsDataTypeToAttributeList() function returns a NULL-
          terminated array of pointers of *DtDtsAttribute, or NULL if
          no value could be determined.

     APPLICATION USAGE
          The application should use the DtDtsFreeAttributeList(3)
          function to release the memory for the returned value.

          The opt_name argument is useful when the attribute being
          returned contains a modifier string that depends on having a
          file name included.  For example, if the INSTANCE_ICON
          attribute had the value %name%.icon, opt_name would be used
          to derive the %name% portion of the attribute value.  See
          dtdtsfile(4).
