+ * SECTION: field
+ * @title: Field
+ * @short_description: description of the partition fields
+ *
+ * The fdisk fields are static user-friendly descriptions of the partition. The
+ * fields are used to avoid label specific stuff in the functions that list disk
+ * partitions (e.g. fdisk -l). The field Id is the same as Id for fdisk_partition_to_string().
+ *
+ * <informalexample>
+ *   <programlisting>
+ * int *ids;
+ * size_t nids;
+ * struct fdisk_partition *pa = NULL;
+ * struct fdisk_label *lb = fdisk_get_label(cxt, NULL);
+ *
+ * fdisk_label_get_fields_ids(lb, cxt, &ids, &nids);
+ *
+ * fdisk_get_partition(cxt, 0, &pa);
+ *
+ * for (i = 0; i < nids; i++) {
+ *	const struct fdisk_field *field = fdisk_label_get_field(lb, ids[i]);
+ *
+ *	int id = fdisk_field_get_id(fl);
+ *	const char *name = fdisk_field_get_name(fl);
+ *	char *data;
+ *
+ *	fdisk_partition_to_string(pa, id, &data);
+ *	printf("%s: %s\n", name, data);
+ *	free(data);
+ * }
+ * free(ids);
+ *    </programlisting>
+ * </informalexample>
+ *
+ * This example lists all information about the first partition. It will work
+ * for MBR as well as for GPT because fields are not hardcoded in the example.
+ *
+ * See also fdisk_label_get_field_by_name(), fdisk_label_get_fields_ids_all()
+ * and fdisk_label_get_fields_ids().
