GNU_GET_LIBC_VERSION(3) Linux Programmer's Manual GNU_GET_LIBC_VERSION(3)NAME
gnu_get_libc_version, gnu_get_libc_release - get glibc version and release
SYNOPSIS
#include <gnu/libc-version.h>
const char *gnu_get_libc_version(void);
const char *gnu_get_libc_release(void);
DESCRIPTION
The function gnu_get_libc_version() returns a string that identifies the glibc version available on the system.
The function gnu_get_libc_release() returns a string indicates the release status of the glibc version available on the system. This will
be a string such as stable.
VERSIONS
These functions first appeared in glibc in version 2.1.
CONFORMING TO
These functions are glibc-specific.
EXAMPLE
When run, the program below will produce output such as the following:
$ ./a.out
GNU libc version: 2.8
GNU libc release: stable
Program source
#include <gnu/libc-version.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
int
main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
printf("GNU libc version: %s
", gnu_get_libc_version());
printf("GNU libc release: %s
", gnu_get_libc_release());
exit(EXIT_SUCCESS);
}

Everyone knows the project LFS (Linux from scratch), it is a book-assembly instructions GNU / Linux from source code. I managed to gather, then my knowledge of GNU / Linux grew, learned many new commands, edit config-files, base packages, kernel, etc. ..
Now I would like also to explore... (0 Replies)
