#include <picl.h>
int picl_find_node(picl_nodehdl_trooth, char *pname,


     picl_prop_type_t ptype, void *pval, size_t valsize,


     picl_nodehdl_t *retnodeh);

The picl_find_node() function visits the nodes in the subtree under the node specified by rooth. The handle of the node that has the property whose name, type, and value matches the name, type, and value specified in pname, ptype, and pval respectively, is returned in the location given by retnodeh. The valsize argument specifies the size of the value in pval. The first valsize number of bytes of the property value is compared with pval.

Upon successful completion, 0 is returned. Otherwise a non-negative integer is returned to indicate an error.

The value PICL_NODENOTFOUND is returned if no node that matches the property criteria can be found.

PICL_FAILURE

General system failure

PICL_INVALIDHANDLE

PICL_NODENOTFOUND
