mi_get_double_precision()

The mi_get_double_precision() function copies a double precision value from a buffer regardless of alignment.

Syntax

mi_unsigned_char1 *mi_get_double_precision(datap, valp)

		mi_unsigned_char1 *datap;

		mi_double_precision *valp; 


datap
is a pointer to the buffer from which to copy a double precision value. 

valp
is a pointer to the buffer to which to copy the double precision value.







 



Valid in Client Application?

Valid in Server Routine?

No
Yes

Usage

Use mi_get_double_precision() to implement send and receive functions for user data types when aligned values such as an mi_double_precision need to be read from possibly unaligned data buffers.

The returned address is advanced the length of an mi_double_precision value, to permit a subsequent copy. In other words, if n is the length of the value in valp, the returned address is advanced n bytes from the original buffer address in datap.

Return Values

The address of the next buffer from which data can be copied.
