Description
int
ftok ( string pathname, string proj )

accessible file and a project identifier (proj)
into a
integer for use with for example
shmop_open() and other System V IPC keys. The
proj parameter should be a one character string.
On success the return value will be the created key value, otherwise
-1 is returned.
