Fetch a record from a tdb database
#include <tdb.h> TDB_DATA tdb_fetch(TDB_CONTEXT *tdb, TDB_DATA key);
Fetch the record from the tdb database whose key matches key , a lump of data that is used as the index into the database.
The TDB_DATA structure used for both the key and the return value is defined as:
typedef struct {
char *dptr;
size_t dsize;
} TDB_DATA;
If the call succeeds, then a TDB_DATA structure is returned with the dptr structure filled in. If the call fails then dptr will be set to NULL.
NOTE: The caller is responsible for freeing the data pointed to by dptr.
