Updated: 2003
NAME
vfscanf, vscanf, vsscanf - format input of a stdarg argument list
SYNOPSIS
#include <stdarg.h>
#include <stdio.h>
int vfscanf(FILE *restrict stream, const char *restrict
format,
va_list arg);
int vscanf(const char *restrict format, va_list arg);
int vsscanf(const char *restrict s, const char *restrict
format,
va_list arg);
DESCRIPTION
The vscanf(), vfscanf(), and vsscanf() functions
shall be equivalent to the scanf(), fscanf(), and sscanf()
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 fscanf() .
ERRORS
Refer to fscanf() .
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.
