C and C++ applicationscalling m4_ref(dbh_get_type) should be changed to treat the method'sreturn as an error code, and to pass an additional second argument oftype m4_bold(DBTYPE *) to the method.  The additional argument is usedas a memory location in which to store the requested information.])m4_page_footer
