VFWSCANF(3P) POSIX Programmer's Manual VFWSCANF(3P)PROLOG
This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual. The Linux
implementation of this interface may differ (consult the corresponding
Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior), or the interface may
not be implemented on Linux.
NAME
vfwscanf, vswscanf, vwscanf — wide-character formatted input of a
stdarg argument list
SYNOPSIS
#include <stdarg.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <wchar.h>
int vfwscanf(FILE *restrict stream, const wchar_t *restrict format,
va_list arg);
int vswscanf(const wchar_t *restrict ws, const wchar_t *restrict format,
va_list arg);
int vwscanf(const wchar_t *restrict format, va_list arg);
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 vfwscanf(), vswscanf(), and vwscanf() functions shall be equivalent
to the fwscanf(), swscanf(), and wscanf() functions, respectively,
except that instead of being called with a variable number of argu‐
ments, they are called with an argument list as defined in the
<stdarg.h> header. These functions shall not invoke the va_end macro.
As these functions invoke the va_arg macro, the value of ap after the
return is unspecified.
RETURN VALUE
Refer to fwscanf().
ERRORS
Refer to fwscanf().
The following sections are informative.
EXAMPLES
None.
APPLICATION USAGE
Applications using these functions should call va_end(ap) afterwards to
clean up.
RATIONALE
None.
FUTURE DIRECTIONS
None.
