genders_load_data - read and parse a genders file

genders_load_data()  read  and  parses  the  genders  file  indicated  by filename.  If filename is NULL,
       genders_load_data()  will  attempt  to  read  and   parse   the   default   genders   file   defined   by
       GENDERS_DEFAULT_FILE. handle is a genders handle created by genders_handle_create(3).

       After  genders_load_data()  is called, information about the genders file is stored in the genders handle
       passed in.  This information is used by other genders C API functions.  All future  use  of  handle  with
       other genders C API functions will be directly associated with the genders file indicated by filename (or
       the default genders file if filename is NULL).

GENDERS_ERR_NULLHANDLE
              The handle parameter is NULL.  The genders handle must be created with genders_handle_create(3).

       GENDERS_ERR_OPEN
              The genders file indicated by filename cannot be opened for reading.

       GENDERS_ERR_READ
              Error reading the genders file indicated by filename.

       GENDERS_ERR_PARSE
              The genders file indicated by filename is incorrectly formatted.

       GENDERS_ERR_ISLOADEDgenders_load_data(3) has already been called with handle.

       GENDERS_ERR_OVERFLOW
              A line in the genders database exceeds the maximum allowed length.

       GENDERS_ERR_OUTMEMmalloc(3) has failed internally, system is out of memory.

       GENDERS_ERR_MAGIChandle has an incorrect magic number.  handle does not point to a genders  handle  or  handle  has
              been destroyed by genders_handle_destroy(3).
