Library /sys$common/syshlp/helplib.hlb  —  LBR Routines, LBR$MAP_MODULE
    The LBR$MAP_MODULE routine maps a module into process P2 space.

    Format

      LBR$MAP_MODULE  library_index, ret_va_addr, ret_mod_len, txtrfa

1  –  Arguments

 library_index

    OpenVMS usage:longword_unsigned
    type:         longword (unsigned)
    access:       read only
    mechanism:    by reference
    Library control index returned by the LBR$INI_CONTROL library
    routine. The library_index argument is the address of the
    longword that contains the index.

 ret_va_addr

    OpenVMS usage:address
    type:         quadword address
    access:       write only
    mechanism:    by 32-bit or 64-bit reference
    The 32-bit or 64-bit virtual address of a naturally aligned
    quadword into which the routine returns the virtual address at
    which the routine mapped the library module.

 ret_mod_len

    OpenVMS usage:byte_count
    type:         quadword (unsigned)
    access:       read only
    mechanism:    by reference
    The address of a naturally aligned quadword into which the
    library routine returns the module length.

 txtrfa

    OpenVMS usage:vector_longword_unsigned
    type:         longword (unsigned)
    access:       read only
    mechanism:    by reference
    The module's record file address (RFA) of the library module
    header. The txtrfa argument is the address of the 2-longword
    array that specifies the RFA of the module header.

2  –  Description

    This routine maps a module, with the given txtrfa, into process
    P2 memory space and returns the virtual address where the module
    is mapped and the module size.

    Unlike other LBR services that use RMS services, LBR$MAP_MODULE
    also uses system services. Because of this, the secondary status
    for error returns is placed in LBR$$GL_SUBSTS. Use this secondary
    status to find additional status when an error is returned.
