Fmkfldid(), Fmkfldid32() - make a field identifier

#include <stdio.h> 
#include "fml.h" 
 
FLDID 
Fmkfldid(int type, FLDID num) 
 
#include "fml.h" 
 
FLDID32 
Fmkfldid32(int type, FLDID32 num)

Fmkfldid() allows the creation of a valid field identifier from a valid type (as defined in fml.h) and a field number. This is useful for writing an application generator that chooses field numbers sequentially, or for recreating a field identifier.

type is a valid type (an integer; see Fldtype, Fldtype32(3fml)). num is a field number (it should be an unused field number to avoid confusion with existing fields)

Fmkfldid32() is used with 32-bit FML.

A thread in a multithreaded application may issue a call to Fmkfldid() or Fmkfldid32() while running in any context state, including TPINVALIDCONTEXT.

This function returns BADFLDID on error and sets Ferror to indicate the error condition.

Under the following conditions, Fmkfldid() fails and sets Ferror to:

[FBADFLD]

"unknown field number or type"
A field number is specified which is not valid.

[FTYPERR]

"invalid field type"
A field type is specified which is not valid (as defined in fml.h).
