NAME
stddef.h, stddef - standard type definitions SYNOPSIS
#include <stddef.h> DESCRIPTION
The <stddef.h> header defines the following macros: NULL Null pointer constant. offsetof(type, member-designator) Integer constant expression of type size_t, the value of which is the offset in bytes to the structure member (member-designator), from the beginning of its structure (type). The <stddef.h> header defines the following types: ptrdiff_t Signed integer type of the result of subtracting two pointers. wchar_t Integer type whose range of values can represent distinct wide-character codes for all members of the largest character set specified among the locales supported by the compilation environment: the null character has the code value 0 and each mem- ber of the portable character set has a code value equal to its value when used as the lone character in an integer charac- ter constant. size_t Unsigned integer type of the result of the sizeof operator. The implementation supports one or more programming environments in which the widths of ptrdiff_t, size_t, and wchar_t are no greater than the width of type long. The names of these programming environments can be obtained using the confstr(3C) function or the getconf(1) util- ity. ATTRIBUTES
