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.1-2017 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 arguments, 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.
