NAME

       cgiGetFile - Return information of a CGI file variable

SYNOPSYS

       #include <cgi.h>

       s_file *cgiGetFile (s_cgi *parms, const char *name);

DESCRIPTION

       This  routine  returns a pointer to a datastructure associated with the
       value of a CGI file variable.  The pointer must not be freed.

       The s_file structure is declared as follows:

              typedef struct file_s {
                  char   *name,
                         *type,
                         *filename,
                         *tmpfile;
              } s_file;

       Memory allocated by this data structure is automatically freed  by  the
       final call to cgiFree(3).

RETURN VALUE

       On  success  a pointer to the s_file datastructure is returned.  If the
       variable wasn’t transmitted or the through CGI or if the  filename  was
       empty NULL is returned.
