XPRINTF(3) BSD Library Functions Manual XPRINTF(3)
NAME
asxprintf, dxprintf, fxprintf, sxprintf, xprintf, vasxprintf, vdxprintf, vfxprintf, vsxprintf, vxprintf -- extensible printf
SYNOPSIS
#include <printf.h>
int
asxprintf(char ** restrict ret, printf_domain_t restrict domain, locale_t restrict loc, const char * restrict format, ...);
int
dxprintf(int fd, printf_domain_t restrict domain, locale_t restrict loc, const char * restrict format, ...);
int
fxprintf(FILE * restrict stream, printf_domain_t restrict domain, locale_t restrict loc, const char * restrict format, ...);
int
sxprintf(char * restrict str, size_t size, printf_domain_t restrict domain, locale_t restrict loc, const char * restrict format, ...);
int
xprintf(printf_domain_t restrict domain, locale_t restrict loc, const char * restrict format, ...);
#include <stdarg.h>
int
vasxprintf(char ** restrict ret, printf_domain_t restrict domain, locale_t restrict loc, const char * restrict format, va_list ap);
int
vdxprintf(int fd, printf_domain_t restrict domain, locale_t restrict loc, const char * restrict format, va_list ap);
int
vfxprintf(FILE * restrict stream, printf_domain_t restrict domain, locale_t restrict loc, const char * restrict format, va_list ap);
int
vsxprintf(char * restrict str, size_t size, printf_domain_t restrict domain, locale_t restrict loc, const char * restrict format,
va_list ap);
int
vxprintf(printf_domain_t restrict domain, locale_t restrict loc, const char * restrict format, va_list ap);
DESCRIPTION
These extensible printf (see xprintf(5)) variants behave like their normal printf counterparts (see printf(3)) without 'x' in the name
(except sxprintf() and vsxprintf() behave like snprintf() and vsnprintf(), respectively).
The domain argument must be a pointer to a printf domain structure, as returned by one of the functions described in xprintf_domain(3). The
loc argument should be an extended locale (see xlocale(3)) or NULL, which means to use the current locale in effect (either the per-thread
locale if set, or the global locale by default).
