NAME
  tt_spec_prop - retrieve the ith value of the property associated with an
  object spec

SYNOPSIS
  #include <Tt/tt_c.h>
  char *tt_spec_prop(const char *objid,
		     const char *propname,
		     int i);

DESCRIPTION
  The tt_spec_prop function retrieves the ith value of the property
  associated with this object spec.

  The objid argument is the identifier of the object involved in this
  operation.  The propname argument is the name of the property associated
  with the object spec.	 The i argument is the item of the list whose value
  is to be retrieved.  The list numbering begins with zero.

RETURN VALUE
  Upon successful completion, the tt_spec_prop function returns the contents
  of the property value.  If there are i values or less, tt_spec_prop returns
  NULL.	 The application can use tt_ptr_error3 to extract one of the
  following Tt_status values from the returned pointer:

  TT_OK	  The operation completed successfully.

  TT_ERR_DBAVAIL
	  The ToolTalk service could not access the ToolTalk database needed
	  for this operation.

  TT_ERR_DBEXIST

	  database in the expected place.

  TT_ERR_NOMP

	  cannot restart it.

  TT_ERR_NUM
	  The integer value passed was invalid (out of range).

  TT_ERR_OBJID
	  The objid passed to the ToolTalk service does not reference an
	  existing object spec.

  TT_ERR_PROPNAME
	  The specified property name is syntactically invalid.

APPLICATION USAGE
  The application should use tt_free3 to free any data stored in the address
  returned by the ToolTalk API.

  If the returned value has embedded nulls, its length cannot be determined.
