PROLOG
       This  manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.  The Linux implementation of this interface may differ (consult the correspond-
       ing Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior), or the interface may not be implemented on Linux.

NAME
       strrchr - string scanning operation

SYNOPSIS
       #include <string.h>

       char *strrchr(const char *s, int c);

DESCRIPTION
       The strrchr() function shall locate the last occurrence of c (converted to a char) in the string pointed to by s. The terminating null byte
       is considered to be part of the string.

RETURN VALUE
       Upon successful completion, strrchr() shall return a pointer to the byte or a null pointer if c does not occur in the string.

ERRORS
       No errors are defined.

       The following sections are informative.

EXAMPLES
   Finding the Base Name of a File
       The  following  example	uses  strrchr() to get a pointer to the base name of a file. The strrchr() function searches backwards through the
       name of the file to find the last '/' character in name. This pointer (plus one) will point to the base name of the file.

	      #include <string.h>
	      ...
	      const char *name;
	      char *basename;
	      ...
	      basename = strrchr(name, '/') + 1;
	      ...

APPLICATION USAGE
       None.

RATIONALE
       None.

FUTURE DIRECTIONS
       None.
