NAME
wordexp.h, wordexp - word-expansion types SYNOPSIS
#include <wordexp.h> DESCRIPTION
The <wordexp.h> header defines the structures and symbolic constants used by the wordexp() and wordfree() functions. See wordexp(3C). The structure type wordexp_t contains the following members: size_t we_wordc /* count of words matched by words */ char **we_wordv /* pointer to list of expanded words */ size_t we_offs /* slots to reserve at the beginning of we_wordv */ The flags argument to the wordexp() function is the bitwise-inclusive OR of the following flags: WRDE_APPEND Append words to those previously generated. WRDE_DOOFFS Number of null pointers to prepend to we_wordv. WRDE_NOCMD Fail if command substitution is requested. WRDE_REUSE The pwordexp argument was passed to a previous successful call to wordexp(), and has not been passed to wordfree(). The result is the same as if the application had called wordfree() and then called wordexp() without WRDE_REUSE. WRDE_SHOWERR Do not redirect stderr to /dev/null. WRDE_UNDEF Report error on an attempt to expand an undefined shell variable. The following constants are defined as error return values: WRDE_BADCHAR One of the unquoted characters--<newline>, '|', '&', ';', '<', '>', '(', ')', '{', '}'--appears in words in an inappropri- ate context. WRDE_BADVAL Reference to undefined shell variable when WRDE_UNDEF is set in flags. WRDE_CMDSUB Command substitution requested when WRDE_NOCMD was set in flags. WRDE_NOSPACE Attempt to allocate memory failed. WRDE_NOSYS Reserved. WRDE_SYNTAX Shell syntax error, such as unbalanced parentheses or unterminated string. The <wordexp.h> header defines the following type: size_t As described in <stddef.h>. ATTRIBUTES
