putc -- put a byte on a stream SYNOPSIS
#include <stdio.h> int putc(int c, FILE *stream); DESCRIPTION
The functionality described on this reference page is aligned with the ISO C standard. Any conflict between the requirements described here and the ISO C standard is unintentional. This volume of POSIX.1-2008 defers to the ISO C standard. The putc() function shall be equivalent to fputc(), except that if it is implemented as a macro it may evaluate stream more than once, so the argument should never be an expression with side-effects. RETURN VALUE
Refer to fputc(). ERRORS
Refer to fputc(). The following sections are informative. EXAMPLES
None. APPLICATION USAGE
Since it may be implemented as a macro, putc() may treat a stream argument with side-effects incorrectly. In particular, putc(c,*f++) does not necessarily work correctly. Therefore, use of this function is not recommended in such situations; fputc() should be used instead. RATIONALE
None. FUTURE DIRECTIONS
None. SEE ALSO
