                     Str255 symName, Ptr *symAddr, 
                     SymClass *symClass);
connID

DESCRIPTION
The GetIndSymbol function returns information about a particular symbol exported by the fragment whose connection ID is connID. If GetIndSymbol executes successfully, it returns the symbol's name, starting address, and class in the symName, symAddr, and symClass parameters, respectively. See the description of the FindSymbol function (page 3-24) for a list of the values that can be returned in the symClass parameter.

A fragment's exported symbols are retrieved in no predetermined order.
