bool Get_Construct_Attribute(Construct_Identifier Construct_ID, BAR_String Attribute_Name);

Parameters

• Construct_Identifier Construct_ID: A construct identifier (generally name or UID).
• BAR_String Attribute_Name: An attribute name.

Return Values

• True: Attribute present.
• False: Attribute absent or error.

Remarks

This function retrieves information on the presence or absence of an attribute of the construct identified by Construct_ID.  The function returns true if the attribute, specified by Attribute_Name, is present for the construct. If it is absent, a false value is returned.

The following strings for Attribute_Name are supported:

• signed
• unsigned
• bigendian
• littleendian
• organized
• unorganized
• textual
• bitscan
• bitfield
• repeats
• optional
• discardable
• nofragment
• autoterminate

The function will fail (return false) if Construct_ID is not a valid identifier for a construct, if the attribute name is unsupported, or if the construct does not support the particular attribute requested.

Construct_ID is a platform-dependent identifier.
