NAME
       DtDtsBufferToAttributeList  —  get a list of data attributes for a byte
       stream

SYNOPSIS
       #include <Dt/Dts.h>
       DtDtsAttribute **DtDtsBufferToAttributeList(
       const void *buffer,
       const int size,
       const char *opt_name);

DESCRIPTION
       The  DtDtsBufferToAttributeList	function  returns  a  list   of	  data
       attributes for a given byte stream.

       The buffer argument is a pointer to the buffer of the data to be typed.

       The size argument is the size of the buffer in bytes.

       The  opt_name  argument	can be used to specify a name to be associated
       with the buffer.	 If the opt_name argument is not NULL, it is used as a
       pseudo  file  name  in  typing;	otherwise,  certain  attributes may be
       returned as NULL because the filename components could  not  be	deter‐
       mined.

RETURN VALUE
       Upon  successful	 completion,  the  DtDtsBufferToAttributeList function
       returns a NULL-terminated array of pointers of *DtDtsAttribute.	If  no
       value could be determined, it returns NULL.

APPLICATION USAGE
       The  application	 should	 use the DtDtsFreeAttributeList(3) function to
       release the memory for the returned value.

       The DtDtsBufferToAttributeList function	assumes	 that  the  buffer  is
       readable	 and  writable	by  the user, group and other file classes and
       selects a type accordingly.  An application requiring a type  based  on
       read-only permissions should use DtDtsDataToDataType.

SEE ALSO
       Dt/Dts.h,  DtDtsDataToDataType(3),  DtDtsLoadDataTypes(3), DtDtsFreeAt‐
       tributeList(3).
