<p>The <i>&lt;grp.h&gt;</i> header shall declare the structure <b>group</b> which shall include the following members:</p>
<pre>
<tt>char *gr_name</tt> The name of the group. <tt>
gid_t gr_gid </tt> Numerical group ID. <tt>
char **gr_mem </tt> Pointer to a null-terminated array of character <tt>
</tt> pointers to member names. <tt>

</pre>
<p>The <b>gid_t</b> type shall be defined as described in <a href="sys/types.h.html"><i>&lt;sys/types.h&gt;</i></a> .</p>
<p>The following shall be declared as functions and may also be defined as macros. Function prototypes shall be provided.</p>

<p>The DESCRIPTION is updated for alignment with the POSIX Threads Extension.</p>

<p>The following new requirements on POSIX implementations derive from alignment with the Single UNIX Specification:</p>
<ul>
<li>
<p>The definition of <b>gid_t</b> is mandated.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>The <a href="../functions/getgrgid_r.html"><i>getgrgid_r</i>()</a> and <a href=
"../functions/getgrnam_r.html"><i>getgrnam_r</i>()</a> functions are marked as part of the Thread-Safe Functions option.</p>
