A filter primitive that translates between a discriminated union and its corresponding external representation. The xdr_union routine first translates the discriminant of the union located at dscmp . This discriminant is always of type enum_t .Next, the routine translates the union data located at unp . To translate the union data the xdr_union routine first searches the structure pointed to by the choices argument for the union discriminant passed in the dscmp argument.
