<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2>
<B><A HREF="wiki/Manual for lc_handle_type">lc_handle_type</A></B>(3)
converts the string
<I>value</I>
to the correct type specified by the 
<I>type </I>
parameter.  The result is stored in the memory region passed as
<I>data</I>,
which should be of the correct type.  For possible values for
<I>type</I>
and the corresponding
<I>data</I>
type, see the
<B><A HREF="wiki/Manual for lc_register_var">lc_register_var</A></B>(3)
man page.

<A NAME="lbAE">&nbsp;</A>
<H2>RETURN VALUE</H2>
On success 0 is returned, otherwise -1 is returned.  The memory pointed to by
<I>data</I>
may be altered in either case.
