- American National Standard Programming Language C specifies the
- syntax and semantics of programs written in the C programming
- language. It specifies the C program's interactions with the
- execution environment via input and output data. It also specifies
- restrictions and limits imposed upon conforming implementations of C
- language translators.
-
- The standard was developed by the X3J11 Technical Committee on the
- C Programming Language under project 381-D by American National
- Standards Committee on Computers and Information Processing (X3).
- SPARC document number 83-079 describes the purpose of this project to
- ``provide an unambiguous and machine-independent definition of the
- language C.''
-
- The need for a single clearly defined standard had arisen in the C
- community due to a rapidly expanding use of the C programming language
- and the variety of differing translator implementations that had been
- and were being developed. The existence of similar but incompatible
- implementations was a serious problem for program developers who
- wished to develop code that would compile and execute as expected in
- several different environments.
-
- Part of this problem could be traced to the fact that implementors
- did not have an adequate definition of the C language upon which to
- base their implementations. The de facto C programming language
- standard, The C Programming Language by Brian W. Kernighan and Dennis
- M. Ritchie, is an excellent book; however, it is not precise or
- complete enough to specify the C language fully. In addition, the
- language has grown over years of use to incorporate new ideas in
- programming and to address some of the weaknesses of the original
- language.
-
- American National Standard Programming Language C addresses the
- problems of both the program developer and the translator implementor
- by specifying the C language precisely.
-
- The work of X3J11 began in the summer of 1983, based on the several
- documents that were made available to the Committee (see $1.5, Base
- Documents). The Committee divided the effort into three pieces: the
- environment, the language, and the library. A complete specification
- in each of these areas is necessary if truly portable programs are to
- be developed. Each of these areas is addressed in the Standard. The
- Committee evaluated many proposals for additions, deletions, and
- changes to the base documents during its deliberations. A concerted
- effort was made to codify existing practice wherever unambiguous and
- consistent practice could be identified. However, where no consistent
- practice could be identified, the Committee worked to establish clear
- rules that were consistent with the overall flavor of the language.
-
- This document was approved as an American National Standard by the
- American National Standards Institute (ANSI) on DD MM, 1988.
- Suggestions for improvement of this Standard are welcome. They should
- be sent to the American National Standards Institute, 1430 Broadway,
- New York, NY 10018.
-
- The Standard was processed and approved for submittal to ANSI by
- the American National Standards Committee on Computers and Information
- Processing, X3. Committee approval of the Standard does not
- necessarily imply that all members voted for its approval. At the
- time that it approved this Standard, the X3 Committee had the
- following members:

- 1.5 BASE DOCUMENTS
-
- The language section ($3) is derived from ``The C Reference
- Manual'' by Dennis M. Ritchie, a version of which was published as
- Appendix A of The C Programming Language by Brian W. Kernighan and
- Dennis M. Ritchie, Prentice-Hall, Inc., 1978; copyright owned by AT&T.
-
- The library section ($4) is based on the 1984 /usr/group Standard by
- the /usr/group Standards Committee, Santa Clara, California, USA
- (November 14, 1984).
-
- 1.6 DEFINITIONS OF TERMS
-
- In this Standard, ``shall'' is to be interpreted as a requirement
- on an implementation or on a program; conversely, ``shall not'' is to
- be interpreted as a prohibition.
-
- The following terms are used in this document:=20
-
- * Implementation --- a particular set of software, running in a
- particular translation environment under particular control options,
- that performs translation of programs for, and supports execution of
- functions in, a particular execution environment.
-
- * Bit --- the unit of data storage in the execution environment large
- enough to hold an object that may have one of two values. It need not
- be possible to express the address of each individual bit of an
- object.
-
- * Byte --- the unit of data storage in the execution environment
- large enough to hold any member of the basic character set of the
- execution environment. It shall be possible to express the address of
- each individual byte of an object uniquely. A byte is composed of a
- contiguous sequence of bits, the number of which is
- implementation-defined. The least significant bit is called the
- low-order bit; the most significant bit is called the high-order bit.
-
- * Object --- a region of data storage in the execution environment,
- the contents of which can represent values. Except for bit-fields,
- objects are composed of contiguous sequences of one or more bytes, the
- number, order, and encoding of which are either explicitly specified
- or implementation-defined.
-
- * Character --- a single byte representing a member of the basic
- character set of either the source or the execution environment.
-
- * Multibyte character --- a sequence of one or more bytes
- representing a member of the extended character set of either the
- source or the execution environment. The extended character set is a
- superset of the basic character set.
-
- * Alignment --- a requirement that objects of a particular type be
- located on storage boundaries with addresses that are particular
- multiples of a byte address.
-
- * Argument --- an expression in the comma-separated list bounded by
- the parentheses in a function call expression, or a sequence of
- preprocessing tokens in the comma-separated list bounded by the
- parentheses in a function-like macro invocation. Also known as
- ``actual argument'' or ``actual parameter.''
-
- * Parameter --- an object declared as part of a function declaration
- or definition that acquires a value on entry to the function, or an
- identifier from the comma-separated list bounded by the parentheses
- immediately following the macro name in a function-like macro
- definition. Also known as ``formal argument'' or ``formal
- parameter.''
-
- * Unspecified behavior --- behavior, for a correct program construct
- and correct data, for which the Standard imposes no requirements.
-
- * Undefined behavior --- behavior, upon use of a nonportable or
- erroneous program construct, of erroneous data, or of
- indeterminately-valued objects, for which the Standard imposes no
- requirements. Permissible undefined behavior ranges from ignoring the
- situation completely with unpredictable results, to behaving during
- translation or program execution in a documented manner characteristic
- of the environment (with or without the issuance of a diagnostic
- message), to terminating a translation or execution (with the issuance
- of a diagnostic message).
-
- If a ``shall'' or ``shall not'' requirement that appears outside of
- a constraint is violated, the behavior is undefined. Undefined=20
- behavior is otherwise indicated in this Standard by the words
- ``undefined behavior'' or by the omission of any explicit definition
- of behavior. There is no difference in emphasis among these three;
- they all describe ``behavior that is undefined.''
-
- * Implementation-defined behavior --- behavior, for a correct program
- construct and correct data, that depends on the characteristics of the
- implementation and that each implementation shall document.
-
- * Locale-specific behavior --- behavior that depends on local
- conventions of nationality, culture, and language that each
- implementation shall document.
-
- * Diagnostic message --- a message belonging to an
- implementation-defined subset of the implementation's message output.
-
- * Constraints --- syntactic and semantic restrictions by which the
- exposition of language elements is to be interpreted.
-
- * Implementation limits --- restrictions imposed upon programs by the
- implementation.
-
- * Forward references --- references to later sections of the Standard
- that contain additional information relevant to this section.
-
- Other terms are defined at their first appearance, indicated by italic
- type. Terms explicitly defined in this Standard are not to be
- presumed to refer implicitly to similar terms defined elsewhere.
-
- Terms not defined in this Standard are to be interpreted according to
- the American National Dictionary for Information Processing Systems,
- Information Processing Systems Technical Report ANSI X3/TR-1-82 (1982).
-
- Forward references: localization ($4.4). =20
-
- "Examples"
-
- An example of unspecified behavior is the order in which the
- arguments to a function are evaluated.
-
- An example of undefined behavior is the behavior on integer overflow.
-
- An example of implementation-defined behavior is the propagation of
- the high-order bit when a signed integer is shifted right.
-
- An example of locale-specific behavior is whether the islower
- function returns true for characters other than the 26 lower-case
- English letters.
-
- Forward references: bitwise shift operators ($3.3.7), expressions
- ($3.3), function calls ($3.3.2.2), the islower function ($4.3.1.6).
-
-
- 1.7 COMPLIANCE
-
- A strictly conforming program shall use only those features of the
- language and library specified in this Standard. It shall not produce
- output dependent on any unspecified, undefined, or
- implementation-defined behavior, and shall not exceed any minimum
- implementation limit.
-
- The two forms of conforming implementation are hosted and
- freestanding. A conforming hosted implementation shall accept any
- strictly conforming program. A conforming freestanding implementation
- shall accept any strictly conforming program in which the use of the
- features specified in the library section ($4) is confined to the
- contents of the standard headers <float.h> , <limits.h> , <s=
- tdarg.h> ,
- and <stddef.h> . A conforming implementation may have extensions
- (including additional library functions), provided they do not alter
- the behavior of any strictly conforming program.
-
- A conforming program is one that is acceptable to a conforming
- implementation./2/
-
- An implementation shall be accompanied by a document that defines
- all implementation-defined characteristics and all extensions.
-
- Forward references: limits <float.h> and <limits.h> ($4.1.4), v=
- ariable
- arguments <stdarg.h> ($4.8), common definitions <stddef.h> ($4.=
- 1.5).
-
-
- 1.8 FUTURE DIRECTIONS
-
- With the introduction of new devices and extended character sets,
- new features may be added to the Standard. Subsections in the
- language and library sections warn implementors and programmers of
- usages which, though valid in themselves, may conflict with future
- additions.
-
- Certain features are obsolescent , which means that they may be
- considered for withdrawal in future revisions of the Standard. They
- are retained in the Standard because of their widespread use, but
- their use in new implementations (for implementation features) or new
- programs (for language or library features) is discouraged.
-
- Forward references: future language directions ($3.9.9), future
- library directions ($4.13).
-
- 1.9 ABOUT THIS DRAFT
-
- Symbols in the right margin mark substantive differences between
- this draft and its predecessor (ANSI X3J11/88-001, January 11, 1988).
- A plus sign indicates an addition, a minus sign a deletion, and a
- vertical bar a replacement.
-
- This section and the difference marks themselves will not appear in
- the published document.
-
-
- 2. ENVIRONMENT
-
- An implementation translates C source files and executes C programs
- in two data-processing-system environments, which will be called the
- translation environment and the execution environment in this
- Standard. Their characteristics define and constrain the results of
- executing conforming C programs constructed according to the syntactic
- and semantic rules for conforming implementations.
-
- Forward references: In the environment section ($2), only a few of
- many possible forward references have been noted.
-
-
- 2.1 CONCEPTUAL MODELS
-
- 2.1.1 Translation environment
-
- 2.1.1.1 Program structure
-
- A C program need not all be translated at the same time. The text
- of the program is kept in units called source files in this Standard.
- A source file together with all the headers and source files included
- via the preprocessing directive #include , less any source lines
- skipped by any of the conditional inclusion preprocessing directives,
- is called a translation unit. Previously translated translation units
- may be preserved individually or in libraries. The separate
- translation units of a program communicate by (for example) calls to
- functions whose identifiers have external linkage, by manipulation of
- objects whose identifiers have external linkage, and by manipulation
- of data files. Translation units may be separately translated and
- then later linked to produce an executable program.
-
- Forward references: conditional inclusion ($3.8.1), linkages of
- identifiers ($3.1.2.2), source file inclusion ($3.8.2).
-
- 2.1.1.2 Translation phases
-
- The precedence among the syntax rules of translation is specified
- by the following phases./3/
-
- 1. Physical source file characters are mapped to the source character
- set (introducing new-line characters for end-of-line indicators) if
- necessary. Trigraph sequences are replaced by corresponding
- single-character internal representations.
-
- 2. Each instance of a new-line character and an immediately preceding
- backslash character is deleted, splicing physical source lines to form
- logical source lines. A source file that is not empty shall end in a
- new-line character, which shall not be immediately preceded by a
- backslash character.
-
- 3. The source file is decomposed into preprocessing tokens/4/ and
- sequences of white-space characters (including comments). A source
- file shall not end in a partial preprocessing token or comment. Each
- comment is replaced by one space character. New-line characters are
- retained. Whether each nonempty sequence of other white-space
- characters is retained or replaced by one space character is
- implementation-defined.
-
- 4. Preprocessing directives are executed and macro invocations are
- expanded. A #include preprocessing directive causes the named header
- or source file to be processed from phase 1 through phase 4,
- recursively.
-
- 5. Each escape sequence in character constants and string literals is
- converted to a member of the execution character set.
-
- 6. Adjacent character string literal tokens are concatenated and
- adjacent wide string literal tokens are concatenated.
-
- 7. White-space characters separating tokens are no longer
- significant. Preprocessing tokens are converted into tokens. The
- resulting tokens are syntactically and semantically analyzed and
- translated.
-
- 8. All external object and function references are resolved. Library
- components are linked to satisfy external references to functions and
- objects not defined in the current translation. All such translator
- output is collected into a program image which contains information
- needed for execution in its execution environment.
-
- Forward references: lexical elements ($3.1), preprocessing directives
- ($3.8), trigraph sequences ($2.2.1.1).
-
- 2.1.1.3 Diagnostics
-
- A conforming implementation shall produce at least one diagnostic
- message (identified in an implementation-defined manner) for every
- translation unit that contains a violation of any syntax rule or
- constraint. Diagnostic messages need not be produced in other
- circumstances.
-
- 2.1.2 Execution environments
-
- Two execution environments are defined: freestanding and hosted.
- In both cases, program startup occurs when a designated C function
- is called by the execution environment. All objects in static storage
- shall be initialized (set to their initial values) before program
- startup. The manner and timing of such initialization are otherwise
- unspecified. Program termination returns control to the execution
- environment.
-
- Forward references: initialization ($3.5.7). =20
-
- 2.1.2.1 Freestanding environment
-
- In a freestanding environment (in which C program execution may
- take place without any benefit of an operating system), the name and
- type of the function called at program startup are
- implementation-defined. There are otherwise no reserved external
- identifiers. Any library facilities available to a freestanding
- program are implementation-defined.
-
- The effect of program termination in a freestanding environment is
- implementation-defined.
-
- 2.1.2.2 Hosted environment
-
- A hosted environment need not be provided, but shall conform to the
- following specifications if present.
-
- "Program startup"
-
- The function called at program startup is named main . The
- implementation declares no prototype for this function. It can be
- defined with no parameters:
-
- int main(void) { /*...*/ }
-
- or with two parameters (referred to here as argc and argv , though any
- names may be used, as they are local to the function in which they are
- declared):
-
- int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { /*...*/ }
-
-
- If they are defined, the parameters to the main function shall obey
- the following constraints:
-
- * The value of argc shall be nonnegative. =20
-
- * argv[argc] shall be a null pointer. =20
-
- * If the value of argc is greater than zero, the array members
- argv[0] through argv[argc-1] inclusive shall contain pointers to
- strings, which are given implementation-defined values by the host
- environment prior to program startup. The intent is to supply to the
- program information determined prior to program startup from elsewhere
- in the hosted environment. If the host environment is not capable of
- supplying strings with letters in both upper-case and lower-case, the
- implementation shall ensure that the strings are received in
- lower-case.
-
- * If the value of argc is greater than zero, the string pointed to by
- argv[0] represents the program name ;argv[0][0] shall be the null
- character if the program name is not available from the host
- environment. If the value of argc is greater than one, the strings
- pointed to by argv[1] through argv[argc-1] represent the program
- parameters .
-
- * The parameters argc and argv and the strings pointed to by the argv
- array shall be modifiable by the program, and retain their last-stored
- values between program startup and program termination.
-
- "Program execution"
-
- In a hosted environment, a program may use all the functions,
- macros, type definitions, and objects described in the library section ($4)=
- .
-
- "Program termination"
-
- A return from the initial call to the main function is equivalent
- to calling the exit function with the value returned by the main
- function as its argument. If the main function executes a return that
- specifies no value, the termination status returned to the host
- environment is undefined.
-
- Forward references: definition of terms ($4.1.1), the exit function
- ($4.10.4.3).
-
-
- 2.1.2.3 Program execution
-
- The semantic descriptions in this Standard describe the behavior of
- an abstract machine in which issues of optimization are irrelevant.
-
- Accessing a volatile object, modifying an object, modifying a file,
- or calling a function that does any of those operations are all side
- effects ,which are changes in the state of the execution environment.
- Evaluation of an expression may produce side effects. At certain
- specified points in the execution sequence called sequence points, all
- side effects of previous evaluations shall be complete and no side
- effects of subsequent evaluations shall have taken place.
-
- In the abstract machine, all expressions are evaluated as specified
- by the semantics. An actual implementation need not evaluate part of
- an expression if it can deduce that its value is not used and that no
- needed side effects are produced (including any caused by calling a
- function or accessing a volatile object).
-
- When the processing of the abstract machine is interrupted by
- receipt of a signal, only the values of objects as of the previous
- sequence point may be relied on. Objects that may be modified between
- the previous sequence point and the next sequence point need not have
- received their correct values yet.
-
- An instance of each object with automatic storage duration is
- associated with each entry into a block. Such an object exists and
- retains its last-stored value during the execution of the block and
- while the block is suspended (by a call of a function or receipt of a
- signal).
-
- The least requirements on a conforming implementation are:=20
-
- * At sequence points, volatile objects are stable in the sense that
- previous evaluations are complete and subsequent evaluations have not
- yet occurred.
-
- * At program termination, all data written into files shall be
- identical to the result that execution of the program according to the
- abstract semantics would have produced.
-
- * The input and output dynamics of interactive devices shall take
- place as specified in $4.9.3. The intent of these requirements is
- that unbuffered or line-buffered output appear as soon as possible, to
- ensure that prompting messages actually appear prior to a program
- waiting for input.
-
- What constitutes an interactive device is implementation-defined.
-
- More stringent correspondences between abstract and actual
- semantics may be defined by each implementation.
-
- "Examples"
-
- An implementation might define a one-to-one correspondence between
- abstract and actual semantics: at every sequence point, the values of
- the actual objects would agree with those specified by the abstract
- semantics. The keyword volatile would then be redundant.
-
- Alternatively, an implementation might perform various
- optimizations within each translation unit, such that the actual
- semantics would agree with the abstract semantics only when making
- function calls across translation unit boundaries. In such an
- implementation, at the time of each function entry and function return
- where the calling function and the called function are in different
- translation units, the values of all externally linked objects and of
- all objects accessible via pointers therein would agree with the
- abstract semantics. Furthermore, at the time of each such function
- entry the values of the parameters of the called function and of all
- objects accessible via pointers therein would agree with the abstract
- semantics. In this type of implementation, objects referred to by
- interrupt service routines activated by the signal function would
- require explicit specification of volatile storage, as well as other
- implementation-defined restrictions.
-
- In executing the fragment=20
-
- char c1, c2;
- /*...*/
- c1 =3D c1 + c2;
-
- the ``integral promotions'' require that the abstract machine promote
- the value of each variable to int size and then add the two int s and
- truncate the sum. Provided the addition of two char s can be done
- without creating an overflow exception, the actual execution need only
- produce the same result, possibly omitting the promotions.
-
- Similarly, in the fragment=20
-
- float f1, f2;
- double d;
- /*...*/
- f1 =3D f2 * d;
-
- the multiplication may be executed using single-precision arithmetic
- if the implementation can ascertain that the result would be the same
- as if it were executed using double-precision arithmetic (for example,
- if d were replaced by the constant 2.0, which has type double ).
- Alternatively, an operation involving only int s or float s may be
- executed using double-precision operations if neither range nor
- precision is lost thereby.
-
- Forward references: compound statement, or block ($3.6.2), files
- ($4.9.3), sequence points ($3.3, $3.6), the signal function ($4.7),
- type qualifiers ($3.5.3).
-
-
- 2.2 ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS
-
- 2.2.1 Character sets
-
- Two sets of characters and their associated collating sequences
- shall be defined: the set in which source files are written, and the
- set interpreted in the execution environment. The values of the
- members of the execution character set are implementation-defined; any
- additional members beyond those required by this section are
- locale-specific.
-
- In a character constant or string literal, members of the execution
- character set shall be represented by corresponding members of the
- source character set or by escape sequences consisting of the
- backslash \ followed by one or more characters. A byte with all bits
- set to 0, called the null character, shall exist in the basic
- execution character set; it is used to terminate a character string
- literal.
-
- Both the basic source and basic execution character sets shall have
- at least the following members: the 26 upper-case letters of the
- English alphabet
-
- A B C D E F G H I J K L M
- N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z
-
- the 26 lower-case letters of the English alphabet=20
-
- a b c d e f g h i j k l m
- n o p q r s t u v w x y z
-
- the 10 decimal digits=20
-
- 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
-
- the following 29 graphic characters=20
-
- ! " # % & ' ( ) * + , - . / :
- ; < =3D > ? [ \ ] ^ _ { | } ~
-
- the space character, and control characters representing horizontal
- tab, vertical tab, and form feed. In both the source and execution
- basic character sets, the value of each character after 0 in the above
- list of decimal digits shall be one greater than the value of the
- previous. In source files, there shall be some way of indicating the
- end of each line of text; this Standard treats such an end-of-line
- indicator as if it were a single new-line character. In the execution
- character set, there shall be control characters representing alert,
- backspace, carriage return, and new line. If any other characters are
- encountered in a source file (except in a preprocessing token that is
- never converted to a token, a character constant, a string literal, or
- a comment), the behavior is undefined.
-
- Forward references: character constants ($3.1.3.4), preprocessing
- directives ($3.8), string literals ($3.1.4), comments ($3.1.9).
-
-
- 2.2.1.1 Trigraph sequences
-
- All occurrences in a source file of the following sequences of
- three characters (called trigraph sequences /5/)are replaced with the
- corresponding single character.
-
- ??=3D #
- ??( [
- ??/ \
- ??) ]
- ??' ^
- ??< {
- ??! |
- ??> }
- ??- ~
-
- No other trigraph sequences exist. Each ? that does not begin one of
- the trigraphs listed above is not changed.
-
- Example
-
- The following source line=20
-
- printf("Eh???/n");
-
- becomes (after replacement of the trigraph sequence ??/ )=20
-
- printf("Eh?\n");
-
-
- 2.2.1.2 Multibyte characters
-
- The source character set may contain multibyte characters, used to
- represent members of the extended character set. The execution
- character set may also contain multibyte characters, which need not
- have the same encoding as for the source character set. For both
- character sets, the following shall hold:
-
- * The single-byte characters defined in $2.2.1 shall be present. =20
-
- * The presence, meaning, and representation of any additional members
- is locale-specific.
-
- * A multibyte character may have a state-dependent encoding ,wherein
- each sequence of multibyte characters begins in an initial shift state
- and enters other implementation-defined shift states when specific
- multibyte characters are encountered in the sequence. While in the
- initial shift state, all single-byte characters retain their usual
- interpretation and do not alter the shift state. The interpretation
- for subsequent bytes in the sequence is a function of the current
- shift state.
-
- * A byte with all bits zero shall be interpreted as a null character
- independent of shift state.
-
- * A byte with all bits zero shall not occur in the second or
- subsequent bytes of a multibyte character.
-
- For the source character set, the following shall hold:=20
-
- * A comment, string literal, character constant, or header name shall
- begin and end in the initial shift state.
-
- * A comment, string literal, character constant, or header name shall
- consist of a sequence of valid multibyte characters.
-
-
- 2.2.2 Character display semantics
-
- The active position is that location on a display device where the
- next character output by the fputc function would appear. The intent
- of writing a printable character (as defined by the isprint function)
- to a display device is to display a graphic representation of that
- character at the active position and then advance the active position
- to the next position on the current line. The direction of printing
- is locale-specific. If the active position is at the final position
- of a line (if there is one), the behavior is unspecified.
-
- Alphabetic escape sequences representing nongraphic characters in
- the execution character set are intended to produce actions on display
- devices as follows: ( alert ) Produces an audible or visible alert.
- The active position shall not be changed. ( backspace ) Moves the
- active position to the previous position on the current line. If the
- active position is at the initial position of a line, the behavior is
- unspecified. ( "form feed" ) Moves the active position to the initial
- position at the start of the next logical page. ( "new line" ) Moves
- the active position to the initial position of the next line. =20
- ( "carriage return" ) Moves the active position to the initial position
- of the current line. ( "horizontal tab" ) Moves the active position
- to the next horizontal tabulation position on the current line. If
- the active position is at or past the last defined horizontal
- tabulation position, the behavior is unspecified. ( "vertical tab" )
- Moves the active position to the initial position of the next vertical
- tabulation position. If the active position is at or past the last
- defined vertical tabulation position, the behavior is unspecified.
-
- Each of these escape sequences shall produce a unique
- implementation-defined value which can be stored in a single char
- object. The external representations in a text file need not be
- identical to the internal representations, and are outside the scope
- of this Standard.
-
- Forward references: the fputc function ($4.9.7.3), the isprint
- function ($4.3.1.7).
-
-
- 2.2.3 Signals and interrupts
-
- Functions shall be implemented such that they may be interrupted at
- any time by a signal, or may be called by a signal handler, or both,
- with no alteration to earlier, but still active, invocations' control
- flow (after the interruption), function return values, or objects with
- automatic storage duration. All such objects shall be maintained
- outside the function image (the instructions that comprise the
- executable representation of a function) on a per-invocation basis.
-
- The functions in the standard library are not guaranteed to be
- reentrant and may modify objects with static storage duration.
-
-
- 2.2.4 Environmental limits
-
- Both the translation and execution environments constrain the
- implementation of language translators and libraries. The following
- summarizes the environmental limits on a conforming implementation.
-
-
- 2.2.4.1 Translation limits
-
- The implementation shall be able to translate and execute at least
- one program that contains at least one instance of every one of the
- following limits:/6/
-
- * 15 nesting levels of compound statements, iteration control
- structures, and selection control structures
-
- * 8 nesting levels of conditional inclusion=20
-
- * 12 pointer, array, and function declarators (in any combinations)
- modifying an arithmetic, a structure, a union, or an incomplete type

- "Characteristics of floating types <float.h>"
-
- delim $$ The characteristics of floating types are defined in terms
- of a model that describes a representation of floating-point numbers
- and values that provide information about an implementation's
- floating-point arithmetic. The following parameters are used to
- define the model for each floating-point type:
-
- A normalized floating-point number x ($f sub 1$ > 0 if x is defined
- by the following model:/8/ $x~=3D~s~times~b sup e~times~sum from k=3D1 to
- p~f sub k~times~b sup -k~,~~~e sub min~<=3D~e~<=3D~e sub max$
-
- Of the values in the <float.h> header, FLT_RADIX shall be a
- constant expression suitable for use in #if preprocessing directives;
- all other values need not be constant expressions. All except
- FLT_RADIX and FLT_ROUNDS have separate names for all three
- floating-point types. The floating-point model representation is
- provided for all values except FLT_ROUNDS .
-
- The rounding mode for floating-point addition is characterized by
- the value of FLT_ROUNDS : -1 indeterminable, 0 toward zero, 1 to nearest,
- 2 toward positive infinity, 3 toward negative infinity. All other values
- for FLT_ROUNDS characterize implementation-defined rounding behavior.

- 3.1 LEXICAL ELEMENTS
-
-
- Syntax
-
- token:
- keyword
- identifier
- constant
- string-literal
- operator
- punctuator
-
- preprocessing-token:
- header-name
- identifier
- pp-number
- character-constant
- string-literal
- operator
- punctuator
- each non-white-space character that cannot be one of
- the above
-
-
-
- Constraints
-
- Each preprocessing token that is converted to a token shall have
- the lexical form of a keyword, an identifier, a constant, a string
- literal, an operator, or a punctuator.
-
- Semantics
-
- A token is the minimal lexical element of the language in
- translation phases 7 and 8. The categories of tokens are: keywords,
- identifiers, constants, string literals, operators, and punctuators.
- A preprocessing token is the minimal lexical element of the language
- in translation phases 3 through 6. The categories of preprocessing
- token are: header names, identifiers, preprocessing numbers,
- character constants, string literals, operators, punctuators, and
- single non-white-space characters that do not lexically match the
- other preprocessing token categories. If a ' or a " character matches
- the last category, the behavior is undefined. Comments (described
- later) and the characters space, horizontal tab, new-line, vertical
- tab, and form-feed---collectively called white space ---canseparate
- preprocessing tokens. As described in $3.8, in certain circumstances
- during translation phase 4, white space (or the absence thereof)
- serves as more than preprocessing token separation. White space may
- appear within a preprocessing token only as part of a header name or
- between the quotation characters in a character constant or string
- literal.
-
- If the input stream has been parsed into preprocessing tokens up to
- a given character, the next preprocessing token is the longest
- sequence of characters that could constitute a preprocessing token.
-
- Examples
-
- The program fragment 1Ex is parsed as a preprocessing number token
- (one that is not a valid floating or integer constant token), even
- though a parse as the pair of preprocessing tokens 1 and Ex might
- produce a valid expression (for example, if Ex were a macro defined as
- +1 ). Similarly, the program fragment 1E1 is parsed as a
- preprocessing number (one that is a valid floating constant token),
- whether or not E is a macro name.
-
- The program fragment x+++++y is parsed as x ++ ++ + y, which
- violates a constraint on increment operators, even though the parse x
- ++ + ++ y might yield a correct expression.

-
-
-
- digit: one of
- 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
-
-
-
- Description
-
- An identifier is a sequence of nondigit characters (including the
- underscore _ and the lower-case and upper-case letters) and digits.
- The first character shall be a nondigit character.
-
- Constraints
-
- In translation phases 7 and 8, an identifier shall not consist of
- the same sequence of characters as a keyword.
-
- Semantics
-
- An identifier denotes an object, a function, or one of the
- following entities that will be described later: a tag or a member of
- a structure, union, or enumeration; a typedef name; a label name; a
- macro name; or a macro parameter. A member of an enumeration is
- called an enumeration constant. Macro names and macro parameters are
- not considered further here, because prior to the semantic phase of
- program translation any occurrences of macro names in the source file
- are replaced by the preprocessing token sequences that constitute
- their macro definitions.
-
- There is no specific limit on the maximum length of an identifier. =20
-
- "Implementation limits"
-
- The implementation shall treat at least the first 31 characters of
- an internal name (a macro name or an identifier that does not have
- external linkage) as significant. Corresponding lower-case and
- upper-case letters are different. The implementation may further
- restrict the significance of an external name (an identifier that has
- external linkage) to six characters and may ignore distinctions of
- alphabetical case for such names./10/ These limitations on identifiers
- are all implementation-defined.
-
- Any identifiers that differ in a significant character are
- different identifiers. If two identifiers differ in a non-significant
- character, the behavior is undefined.
-
- Forward references: linkages of identifiers ($3.1.2.2), macro
- replacement ($3.8.3).
-
-
- 3.1.2.1 Scopes of identifiers
-
- An identifier is visible (i.e., can be used) only within a region
- of program text called its scope . There are four kinds of scopes:
- function, file, block, and function prototype. (A function prototype
- is a declaration of a function that declares the types of its
- parameters.)
-
- A label name is the only kind of identifier that has function scope.
- It can be used (in a goto statement) anywhere in the function in
- which it appears, and is declared implicitly by its syntactic
- appearance (followed by a : and a statement). Label names shall be
- unique within a function.
-
- Every other identifier has scope determined by the placement of its
- declaration (in a declarator or type specifier). If the declarator or
- type specifier that declares the identifier appears outside of any
- block or list of parameters, the identifier has file scope, which
- terminates at the end of the translation unit. If the declarator or
- type specifier that declares the identifier appears inside a block or
- within the list of parameter declarations in a function definition,
- the identifier has block scope, which terminates at the } that closes
- the associated block. If the declarator or type specifier that
- declares the identifier appears within the list of parameter
- declarations in a function prototype (not part of a function
- definition), the identifier has function prototype scope ,which
- terminates at the end of the function declarator. If an outer
- declaration of a lexically identical identifier exists in the same
- name space, it is hidden until the current scope terminates, after
- which it again becomes visible.
-
- Structure, union, and enumeration tags have scope that begins just
- after the appearance of the tag in a type specifier that declares the
- tag. Each enumeration constant has scope that begins just after the
- appearance of its defining enumerator in an enumerator list. Any
- other identifier has scope that begins just after the completion of
- its declarator.
-
- Forward references: compound statement, or block ($3.6.2),
- declarations ($3.5), enumeration specifiers ($3.5.2.2), function calls
- ($3.3.2.2), function declarators (including prototypes) ($3.5.4.3),
- function definitions ($3.7.1), the goto statement ($3.6.6.1), labeled
- statements ($3.6.1), name spaces of identifiers ($3.1.2.3), scope of
- macro definitions ($3.8.3.5), source file inclusion ($3.8.2), tags
- ($3.5.2.3), type specifiers ($3.5.2).
-
- 3.1.2.2 Linkages of identifiers
-
- An identifier declared in different scopes or in the same scope
- more than once can be made to refer to the same object or function by
- a process called linkage . There are three kinds of linkage: external,
- internal, and none.
-
- In the set of translation units and libraries that constitutes an
- entire program, each instance of a particular identifier with external
- linkage denotes the same object or function. Within one translation
- unit, each instance of an identifier with internal linkage denotes the
- same object or function. Identifiers with no linkage denote unique
- entities.
-
- If the declaration of an identifier for an object or a function has
- file scope and contains the storage-class specifier static, the
- identifier has internal linkage.
-
- If the declaration of an identifier for an object or a function
- contains the storage-class specifier extern , the identifier has the
- same linkage as any visible declaration of the identifier with file
- scope. If there is no visible declaration with file scope, the
- identifier has external linkage.
-
- If the declaration of an identifier for a function has no
- storage-class specifier, its linkage is determined exactly as if it
- were declared with the storage-class specifier extern . If the
- declaration of an identifier for an object has file scope and no
- storage-class specifier, its linkage is external.
-
- The following identifiers have no linkage: an identifier declared
- to be anything other than an object or a function; an identifier
- declared to be a function parameter; an identifier declared to be an
- object inside a block without the storage-class specifier extern.
-
- If, within a translation unit, the same identifier appears with
- both internal and external linkage, the behavior is undefined.
-
- Forward references: compound statement, or block ($3.6.2),
- declarations ($3.5), expressions ($3.3), external definitions ($3.7).
-
-
- 3.1.2.3 Name spaces of identifiers
-
- If more than one declaration of a particular identifier is visible
- at any point in a translation unit, the syntactic context
- disambiguates uses that refer to different entities. Thus, there are
- separate name spaces for various categories of identifiers, as
- follows:
-
- * label names (disambiguated by the syntax of the label declaration
- and use);
-
- * the tags of structures, unions, and enumerations (disambiguated by
- following any/11/ of the keywords struct , union , or enum );
-
- * the members of structures or unions; each structure or union has a
- separate name space for its members (disambiguated by the type of the
- expression used to access the member via the . or -> operator);
-
- * all other identifiers, called ordinary identifiers (declared in
- ordinary declarators or as enumeration constants).
-
- Forward references: declarators ($3.5.4), enumeration specifiers
- ($3.5.2.2), labeled statements ($3.6.1), structure and union
- specifiers ($3.5.2.1), structure and union members ($3.3.2.3), tags
- ($3.5.2.3).
-
-
- 3.1.2.4 Storage durations of objects
-
- An object has a storage duration that determines its lifetime.
- There are two storage durations: static and automatic.
-
- An object declared with external or internal linkage, or with the
- storage-class specifier static has static storage duration. For such
- an object, storage is reserved and its stored value is initialized
- only once, prior to program startup. The object exists and retains
- its last-stored value throughout the execution of the entire
- program./12/
-
- An object declared with no linkage and without the storage-class
- specifier static has automatic storage duration. Storage is guaranteed
- to be reserved for a new instance of such an object on each normal
- entry into the block in which it is declared, or on a jump from
- outside the block to a label in the block or in an enclosed block. If
- an initialization is specified for the value stored in the object, it
- is performed on each normal entry, but not if the block is entered by
- a jump to a label. Storage for the object is no longer guaranteed to
- be reserved when execution of the block ends in any way. (Entering an
- enclosed block suspends but does not end execution of the enclosing
- block. Calling a function that returns suspends but does not end
- execution of the block containing the call.) The value of a pointer
- that referred to an object with automatic storage duration that is no
- longer guaranteed to be reserved is indeterminate.
-
- Forward references: compound statement, or block ($3.6.2), function
- calls ($3.3.2.2), initialization ($3.5.7).
-
-
- 3.1.2.5 Types
-
- The meaning of a value stored in an object or returned by a
- function is determined by the type of the expression used to access
- it. (An identifier declared to be an object is the simplest such
- expression; the type is specified in the declaration of the
- identifier.) Types are partitioned into object types (types that
- describe objects), function types (types that describe functions), and
- incomplete types (types that describe objects but lack information
- needed to determine their sizes).
-
- An object declared as type char is large enough to store any member
- of the basic execution character set. If a member of the required
- source character set enumerated in $2.2.1 is stored in a char object,
- its value is guaranteed to be positive. If other quantities are
- stored in a char object, the behavior is implementation-defined: the
- values are treated as either signed or nonnegative integers.
-
- There are four signed integer types, designated as signed char,=20
- short int, int, and long int. (The signed integer and other types
- may be designated in several additional ways, as described in $3.5.2.)
-
- An object declared as type signed char occupies the same amount of
- storage as a ``plain'' char object. A ``plain'' int object has the
- natural size suggested by the architecture of the execution
- environment (large enough to contain any value in the range INT_MIN to
- INT_MAX as defined in the header <limits.h> ). In the list of signed
- integer types above, the range of values of each type is a subrange of
- the values of the next type in the list.
-
- For each of the signed integer types, there is a corresponding (but
- different) unsigned integer type (designated with the keyword unsigned)=20
- that uses the same amount of storage (including sign information)
- and has the same alignment requirements. The range of nonnegative
- values of a signed integer type is a subrange of the corresponding
- unsigned integer type, and the representation of the same value in
- each type is the same. A computation involving unsigned operands can
- never overflow, because a result that cannot be represented by the
- resulting unsigned integer type is reduced modulo the number that is
- one greater than the largest value that can be represented by the
- resulting unsigned integer type.
-
- There are three floating types, designated as float , double , and
- long double . The set of values of the type float is a subset of the
- set of values of the type double ; the set of values of the type
- double is a subset of the set of values of the type long double.
-
- The type char, the signed and unsigned integer types, and the
- floating types are collectively called the basic types. Even if the
- implementation defines two or more basic types to have the same
- representation, they are nevertheless different types.
-
- There are three character types, designated as char , signed char ,
- and unsigned char.
-
- An enumeration comprises a set of named integer constant values.
- Each distinct enumeration constitutes a different enumerated type.
-
- The void type comprises an empty set of values; it is an incomplete
- type that cannot be completed.
-
- Any number of derived types can be constructed from the basic,
- enumerated, and incomplete types, as follows:
-
- * An array type describes a contiguously allocated set of objects
- with a particular member object type, called the element type .Array
- types are characterized by their element type and by the number of
- members of the array. An array type is said to be derived from its
- element type, and if its element type is T , the array type is
- sometimes called ``array of T .'' The construction of an array type
- from an element type is called ``array type derivation.''
-
- * A structure type describes a sequentially allocated set of member
- objects, each of which has an optionally specified name and possibly
- distinct type.
-
- * A union type describes an overlapping set of member objects, each
- of which has an optionally specified name and possibly distinct type.
-
- * A function type describes a function with specified return type. A=20
- function type is characterized by its return type and the number and
- types of its parameters. A function type is said to be derived from
- its return type, and if its return type is T , the function type is
- sometimes called ``function returning T.'' The construction of a
- function type from a return type is called ``function type
- derivation.''
-
- * A pointer type may be derived from a function type, an object type,
- or an incomplete type, called the referenced type. A pointer type
- describes an object whose value provides a reference to an entity of
- the referenced type. A pointer type derived from the referenced type
- T is sometimes called ``pointer to T .'' The construction of a pointer
- type from a referenced type is called ``pointer type derivation.''
-
- These methods of constructing derived types can be applied
- recursively.
-
- The type char, the signed and unsigned integer types, and the
- enumerated types are collectively called integral types. The
- representations of integral types shall define values by use of a pure
- binary numeration system./13/ American National Dictionary for
- Information Processing Systems.) The representations of floating types
- are unspecified.
-
- Integral and floating types are collectively called arithmetic
- types. Arithmetic types and pointer types are collectively called
- scalar types. Array and structure types are collectively called
- aggregate types. /14/
-
- A pointer to void shall have the same representation and alignment
- requirements as a pointer to a character type. Other pointer types
- need not have the same representation or alignment requirements.
-
- An array type of unknown size is an incomplete type. It is
- completed, for an identifier of that type, by specifying the size in a
- later declaration (with internal or external linkage). A structure or
- union type of unknown content (as described in $3.5.2.3) is an
- incomplete type. It is completed, for all declarations of that type,
- by declaring the same structure or union tag with its defining content
- later in the same scope.
-
- Array, function, and pointer types are collectively called derived
- declarator types. A declarator type derivation from a type T is the
- construction of a derived declarator type from T by the application of
- an array, a function, or a pointer type derivation to T.
-
- A type is characterized by its top type, which is either the first
- type named in describing a derived type (as noted above in the
- construction of derived types), or the type itself if the type
- consists of no derived types.
-
- A type has qualified type if its top type is specified with a type
- qualifier; otherwise it has unqualified type. The type qualifiers
- const and volatile respectively designate const-qualified type and
- volatile-qualified type. /15/ For each qualified type there is an
- unqualified type that is specified the same way as the qualified type,
- but without any type qualifiers in its top type. This type is known
- as the unqualified version of the qualified type. Similarly, there
- are appropriately qualified versions of types (such as a
- const-qualified version of a type), just as there are appropriately
- non-qualified versions of types (such as a non-const-qualified version
- of a type).
-
- Examples
-
- The type designated as ``float *'' is called ``pointer to float''
- and its top type is a pointer type, not a floating type. The
- const-qualified version of this type is designated as ``float * const''
- whereas the type designated as `` const float * '' is not a
- qualified type --- it is called ``pointer to const float '' and is a
- pointer to a qualified type.
-
- Finally, the type designated as `` struct tag (*[5])(float) '' is
- called ``array of pointer to function returning struct tag.'' Its top
- type is array type. The array has length five and the function has a
- single parameter of type float.=20

-
- 3.1.2.6 Compatible type and composite type
-
- Two types have compatible type if their types are the same.
- Additional rules for determining whether two types are compatible are
- described in $3.5.2 for type specifiers, in $3.5.3 for type
- qualifiers, and in $3.5.4 for declarators. /16/ Moreover, two
- structure, union, or enumeration types declared in separate
- translation units are compatible if they have the same number of
- members, the same member names, and compatible member types; for two
- structures, the members shall be in the same order; for two
- enumerations, the members shall have the same values.
-
- All declarations that refer to the same object or function shall
- have compatible type; otherwise the behavior is undefined.
-
- A composite type can be constructed from two types that are
- compatible; it is a type that is compatible with both of the two types
- and has the following additions:
-
- * If one type is an array of known size, the composite type is an
- array of that size.
-
- * If only one type is a function type with a parameter type list (a
- function prototype), the composite type is a function prototype with
- the parameter type list.
-
- * If both types have parameter type lists, the type of each parameter
- in the composite parameter type list is the composite type of the
- corresponding parameters.
-
- These rules apply recursively to the types from which the two types
- are derived.
-
- For an identifier with external or internal linkage declared in the
- same scope as another declaration for that identifier, the type of the
- identifier becomes the composite type.
-
- Example
-
- Given the following two file scope declarations:=20
-
- int f(int (*)(), double (*)[3]);
- int f(int (*)(char *), double (*)[]);
-
- The resulting composite type for the function is:=20

-
- Description
-
- A floating constant has a value part that may be followed by an
- exponent part and a suffix that specifies its type. The components of
- the value part may include a digit sequence representing the
- whole-number part, followed by a period (.), followed by a digit
- sequence representing the fraction part. The components of the
- exponent part are an e or E followed by an exponent consisting of an
- optionally signed digit sequence. Either the whole-number part or the
- fraction part shall be present; either the period or the exponent part
- shall be present.
-
- Semantics
-
- The value part is interpreted as a decimal rational number; the
- digit sequence in the exponent part is interpreted as a decimal
- integer. The exponent indicates the power of 10 by which the value
- part is to be scaled. If the scaled value is in the range of
- representable values (for its type) but cannot be represented exactly,
- the result is either the nearest higher or nearest lower value, chosen
- in an implementation-defined manner.
-
- An unsuffixed floating constant has type double. If suffixed by

- or L, it has type long double.

-
- A decimal constant begins with a nonzero digit and consists of a

- The value of a decimal constant is computed base 10; that of an
- octal constant, base 8; that of a hexadecimal constant, base 16. The
- lexically first digit is the most significant.
-
- The type of an integer constant is the first of the corresponding
- list in which its value can be represented. Unsuffixed decimal: int,
- long int, unsigned long int; unsuffixed octal or hexadecimal: int,
- unsigned int, long int, unsigned long int; suffixed by the letter u

- Description
-
- An integer character constant is a sequence of one or more
- multibyte characters enclosed in single-quotes, as in 'x' or 'ab'. A
- wide character constant is the same, except prefixed by the letter L .
- With a few exceptions detailed later, the elements of the sequence are
- any members of the source character set; they are mapped in an
- implementation-defined manner to members of the execution character
- set.
-
- The single-quote ', the double-quote , the question-mark ?, the
- backslash \ , and arbitrary integral values, are representable
- according to the following table of escape sequences:
-
- single-quote ' \'
- double-quote " \"
- question-mark ? \?
- backslash \ \\
- octal integer \ octal digits
- hexadecimal integer \x hexadecimal digits
-
- The double-quote and question-mark ? are representable either by
- themselves or by the escape sequences \" and \? respectively, but the
- single-quote ' and the backslash \ shall be represented, respectively,
- by the escape sequences \' and \\ .
-
- The octal digits that follow the backslash in an octal escape
- sequence are taken to be part of the construction of a single
- character for an integer character constant or of a single wide
- character for a wide character constant. The numerical value of the
- octal integer so formed specifies the value of the desired character.
-
- The hexadecimal digits that follow the backslash and the letter x
- in a hexadecimal escape sequence are taken to be part of the
- construction of a single character for an integer character constant
- or of a single wide character for a wide character constant. The
- numerical value of the hexadecimal integer so formed specifies the
- value of the desired character.
-
- Each octal or hexadecimal escape sequence is the longest sequence
- of characters that can constitute the escape sequence.
-
- In addition, certain nongraphic characters are representable by
- escape sequences consisting of the backslash \ followed by a
- lower-case letter: \a , \b , \f , \n , \r , \t , and \v ./17/ If any
- other escape sequence is encountered, the behavior is undefined./18/
-
- Constraints
-
- The value of an octal or hexadecimal escape sequence shall be in
- the range of representable values for the unsigned type corresponding
- to its type.
-
- Semantics
-
- An integer character constant has type int. The value of an
- integer character constant containing a single character that maps
- into a member of the basic execution character set is the numerical
- value of the representation of the mapped character interpreted as an
- integer. The value of an integer character constant containing more
- than one character, or containing a character or escape sequence not
- represented in the basic execution character set, is
- implementation-defined. In particular, in an implementation in which
- type char has the same range of values as signed char, the high-order
- bit position of a single-character integer character constant is
- treated as a sign bit.
-
- A wide character constant has type wchar_t , an integral type
- defined in the <stddef.h> header. The value of a wide character
- constant containing a single multibyte character that maps into a
- member of the extended execution character set is the wide character
- (code) corresponding to that multibyte character, as defined by the
- mbtowc function, with an implementation-defined current locale. The
- value of a wide character constant containing more than one multibyte
- character, or containing a multibyte character or escape sequence not
- represented in the extended execution character set, is
- implementation-defined.
-
- Examples
-
- The construction '\0' is commonly used to represent the null character.
-
- Consider implementations that use two's-complement representation
- for integers and eight bits for objects that have type char. In an
- implementation in which type char has the same range of values as
- signed char, the integer character constant '\xFF' has the value if
- type char has the same range of values as unsigned char, the
- character constant '\xFF' has the value
-
- Even if eight bits are used for objects that have type char , the
- construction '\x123' specifies an integer character constant
- containing only one character. (The value of this single-character
- integer character constant is implementation-defined and violates the
- above constraint.) To specify an integer character constant containing
- the two characters whose values are 0x12 and '3', the construction
- '\0223' may be used, since a hexadecimal escape sequence is terminated
- only by a non-hexadecimal character. (The value of this two-character
- integer character constant is implementation-defined also.)
-
- Even if 12 or more bits are used for objects that have type wchar_t,
- the construction L'\1234' specifies the implementation-defined value
- that results from the combination of the values 0123 and '4'.

-
- s-char:

- the double-quote ", backslash \, or new-line character
- escape-sequence
-
- Description
-
- A character string literal is a sequence of zero or more multibyte
- characters enclosed in double-quotes, as in xyz. A wide string
- literal is the same, except prefixed by the letter L.
-
- The same considerations apply to each element of the sequence in a
- character string literal or a wide string literal as if it were in an
- integer character constant or a wide character constant, except that
- the single-quote ' is representable either by itself or by the escape
- sequence \', but the double-quote shall be represented by the escape
- sequence \.
-
- Semantics
-
- A character string literal has static storage duration and type
- ``array of char ,'' and is initialized with the given characters. A
- wide string literal has static storage duration and type ``array of
- wchar_t,'' and is initialized with the wide characters corresponding
- to the given multibyte characters. Character string literals that are
- adjacent tokens are concatenated into a single character string
- literal. A null character is then appended. /19/ Likewise, adjacent
- wide string literal tokens are concatenated into a single wide string
- literal to which a code with value zero is then appended. If a
- character string literal token is adjacent to a wide string literal
- token, the behavior is undefined.
-
- Identical string literals of either form need not be distinct. If
- the program attempts to modify a string literal of either form, the
- behavior is undefined.
-
- Example
-
- This pair of adjacent character string literals=20
-
- "\x12" "3"
-
- produces a single character string literal containing the two
- characters whose values are \x12 and '3', because escape sequences are
- converted into single members of the execution character set just
- prior to adjacent string literal concatenation.

-
- 3.2.1.1 Characters and integers
-
- A char, a short int, or an int bit-field, or their signed or
- unsigned varieties, or an object that has enumeration type, may be
- used in an expression wherever an int or unsigned int may be used. If
- an int can represent all values of the original type, the value is
- converted to an int; otherwise it is converted to an unsigned int.
- These are called the integral promotions.
-
- The integral promotions preserve value including sign. As
- discussed earlier, whether a ``plain'' char is treated as signed is
- implementation-defined.
-
- Forward references: enumeration specifiers ($3.5.2.2), structure and
- union specifiers ($3.5.2.1).
-
-
- 3.2.1.2 Signed and unsigned integers
-
- When an unsigned integer is converted to another integral type, if
- the value can be represented by the new type, its value is unchanged.
-
- When a signed integer is converted to an unsigned integer with
- equal or greater size, if the value of the signed integer is
- nonnegative, its value is unchanged. Otherwise: if the unsigned
- integer has greater size, the signed integer is first promoted to the
- signed integer corresponding to the unsigned integer; the value is
- converted to unsigned by adding to it one greater than the largest
- number that can be represented in the unsigned integer type. /22/
-
- When an integer is demoted to an unsigned integer with smaller
- size, the result is the nonnegative remainder on division by the
- number one greater than the largest unsigned number that can be
- represented in the type with smaller size. When an integer is demoted
- to a signed integer with smaller size, or an unsigned integer is
- converted to its corresponding signed integer, if the value cannot be
- represented the result is implementation-defined.
-
-
- 3.2.1.3 Floating and integral
-
- When a value of floating type is converted to integral type, the
- fractional part is discarded. If the value of the integral part
- cannot be represented by the integral type, the behavior is
- undefined. /23/
-
- When a value of integral type is converted to floating type, if the
- value being converted is in the range of values that can be
- represented but cannot be represented exactly, the result is either
- the nearest higher or nearest lower value, chosen in an
- implementation-defined manner.
-
-
- 3.2.1.4 Floating types
-
- When a float is promoted to double or long double , or a double is
- promoted to long double , its value is unchanged.
-
- When a double is demoted to float or a long double to double or
- float, if the value being converted is outside the range of values
- that can be represented, the behavior is undefined. If the value
- being converted is in the range of values that can be represented but
- cannot be represented exactly, the result is either the nearest higher
- or nearest lower value, chosen in an implementation-defined manner.
-
-
- 3.2.1.5 Usual arithmetic conversions
-
- Many binary operators that expect operands of arithmetic type cause
- conversions and yield result types in a similar way. The purpose is
- to yield a common type, which is also the type of the result. This
- pattern is called the usual arithmetic conversions: First, if either
- operand has type long double, the other operand is converted to long
- double . Otherwise, if either operand has type double, the other
- operand is converted to double. Otherwise, if either operand has
- type float, the other operand is converted to float. Otherwise, the
- integral promotions are performed on both operands. Then the
- following rules are applied: If either operand has type unsigned long
- int, the other operand is converted to unsigned long int.
- Otherwise, if one operand has type long int and the other has type
- unsigned int, if a long int can represent all values of an unsigned
- int, the operand of type unsigned int is converted to long int ; if a
- long int cannot represent all the values of an unsigned int, both
- operands are converted to unsigned long int. Otherwise, if either
- operand has type long int, the other operand is converted to long int.
- Otherwise, if either operand has type unsigned int, the other
- operand is converted to unsigned int. Otherwise, both operands have
- type int.
-
- The values of operands and of the results of expressions may be
- represented in greater precision and range than that required by the
- type; the types are not changed thereby.
-
-
- 3.2.2 Other operands
-
- 3.2.2.1 Lvalues and function designators
-
- An lvalue is an expression (with an object type or an incomplete
- type other than void) that designates an object. /24/ When an object
- is said to have a particular type, the type is specified by the lvalue
- used to designate the object. A modifiable lvalue is an lvalue that
- does not have array type, does not have an incomplete type, does not
- have a const-qualified type, and if it is a structure or union, does
- not have any member (including, recursively, any member of all
- contained structures or unions) with a const-qualified type.
-
- Except when it is the operand of the sizeof operator, the unary &
- operator, the ++ operator, the -- operator, or the left operand of the .
- operator or an assignment operator, an lvalue that does not have
- array type is converted to the value stored in the designated object
- (and is no longer an lvalue). If the lvalue has qualified type, the

-
- The (nonexistent) value of a void expression (an expression that

- discarded. (A void expression is evaluated for its side effects.)

-

- A pointer to void may be converted to or from a pointer to any

- original and converted pointers shall compare equal.
-
- An integral constant expression with the value 0, or such an
- expression cast to type void * , is called a null pointer constant. If
- a null pointer constant is assigned to or compared for equality to a
- pointer, the constant is converted to a pointer of that type. Such a
- pointer, called a null pointer, is guaranteed to compare unequal to a
- pointer to any object or function.
-
- Two null pointers, converted through possibly different sequences
- of casts to pointer types, shall compare equal.

-
- 3.3 EXPRESSIONS
-
- An expression is a sequence of operators and operands that
- specifies computation of a value, or that designates an object or a
- function, or that generates side effects, or that performs a
- combination thereof.
-
- Between the previous and next sequence point an object shall have
- its stored value modified at most once by the evaluation of an
- expression. Furthermore, the prior value shall be accessed only to
- determine the value to be stored. /26/
-
- Except as indicated by the syntax /27/ or otherwise specified later
- (for the function-call operator () , && , || , ?: , and comma
- operators), the order of evaluation of subexpressions and the order in
- which side effects take place are both unspecified.
-
- Some operators (the unary operator ~ , and the binary operators <<=
- ,
- >> , & , ^ , and | , collectively described as bitwise operators
- )shall have operands that have integral type. These operators return
- values that depend on the internal representations of integers, and
- thus have implementation-defined aspects for signed types.
-
- If an exception occurs during the evaluation of an expression (that
- is, if the result is not mathematically defined or not representable),
- the behavior is undefined.
-
- An object shall have its stored value accessed only by an lvalue
- that has one of the following types: /28/
-
- * the declared type of the object,=20
-
- * a qualified version of the declared type of the object,=20
-
- * a type that is the signed or unsigned type corresponding to the
- declared type of the object,
-
- * a type that is the signed or unsigned type corresponding to a
- qualified version of the declared type of the object,
-
- * an aggregate or union type that includes one of the aforementioned
- types among its members (including, recursively, a member of a
- subaggregate or contained union), or
-
- * a character type. =20

- 3.3.1 Primary expressions
-
- Syntax
-
- primary-expression:
- identifier
- constant
- string-literal
- ( expression )
-
- Semantics
-
- An identifier is a primary expression, provided it has been
- declared as designating an object (in which case it is an lvalue) or a
- function (in which case it is a function designator).
-
- A constant is a primary expression. Its type depends on its form,
- as detailed in $3.1.3.
-
- A string literal is a primary expression. It is an lvalue with
- type as detailed in $3.1.4.
-
- A parenthesized expression is a primary expression. Its type and
- value are identical to those of the unparenthesized expression. It is
- an lvalue, a function designator, or a void expression if the
- unparenthesized expression is, respectively, an lvalue, a function
- designator, or a void expression.

- 3.3.2.1 Array subscripting
-
- Constraints
-
- One of the expressions shall have type ``pointer to object type ,''
- the other expression shall have integral type, and the result has type
- `` type .''
-
- Semantics
-
- A postfix expression followed by an expression in square brackets
- [] is a subscripted designation of a member of an array object. The
- definition of the subscript operator [] is that E1[E2] is identical to
- (*(E1+(E2))) . Because of the conversion rules that apply to the
- binary + operator, if E1 is an array object (equivalently, a pointer
- to the initial member of an array object) and E2 is an integer, E1[E2]
- designates the E2 -th member of E1 (counting from zero).
-
- Successive subscript operators designate a member of a
- multi-dimensional array object. If E is an n -dimensional array ( n
- >=3D2) with dimensions i x j "x ... x" k , then E (used as other than an
- lvalue) is converted to a pointer to an ( n -1)-dimensional array with
- dimensions j "x ... x" k . If the unary * operator is applied to this
- pointer explicitly, or implicitly as a result of subscripting, the
- result is the pointed-to ( n -1)-dimensional array, which itself is
- converted into a pointer if used as other than an lvalue. It follows
- from this that arrays are stored in row-major order (last subscript
- varies fastest).
-
- Example
-
- Consider the array object defined by the declaration=20
-
- int x[3][5];
-
- Here x is a 3x5 array of int s; more precisely, x is an array of three
- member objects, each of which is an array of five int s. In the
- expression x[i] , which is equivalent to (*(x+(i))) , x is first
- converted to a pointer to the initial array of five int s. Then i is
- adjusted according to the type of x , which conceptually entails
- multiplying i by the size of the object to which the pointer points,
- namely an array of five int objects. The results are added and
- indirection is applied to yield an array of five int s. When used in
- the expression x[i][j] , that in turn is converted to a pointer to the
- first of the int s, so x[i][j] yields an int.

-
-
- 3.3.2.2 Function calls
-
- Constraints
-
- The expression that denotes the called function/29/ shall have type
- pointer to function returning void or returning an object type other
- than array.
-
- If the expression that denotes the called function has a type that
- includes a prototype, the number of arguments shall agree with the
- number of parameters. Each argument shall have a type such that its
- value may be assigned to an object with the unqualified version of the
- type of its corresponding parameter.
-
- Semantics
-
- A postfix expression followed by parentheses () containing a
- possibly empty, comma-separated list of expressions is a function
- call. The postfix expression denotes the called function. The list
- of expressions specifies the arguments to the function.
-
- If the expression that precedes the parenthesized argument list in
- a function call consists solely of an identifier, and if no
- declaration is visible for this identifier, the identifier is
- implicitly declared exactly as if, in the innermost block containing
- the function call, the declaration
-
- extern int identifier();
-
- appeared. /30/
-
- An argument may be an expression of any object type. In preparing
- for the call to a function, the arguments are evaluated, and each
- parameter is assigned the value of the corresponding argument./31/ The
- value of the function call expression is specified in $3.6.6.4.
-
- If the expression that denotes the called function has a type that
- does not include a prototype, the integral promotions are performed on
- each argument and arguments that have type float are promoted to
- double. These are called the default argument promotions. If the
- number of arguments does not agree with the number of parameters, the
- behavior is undefined. If the function is defined with a type that
- does not include a prototype, and the types of the arguments after
- promotion are not compatible with those of the parameters after
- promotion, the behavior is undefined. If the function is defined with
- a type that includes a prototype, and the types of the arguments after
- promotion are not compatible with the types of the parameters, or if
- the prototype ends with an ellipsis ( ", ..." ), the behavior is
- undefined.
-
- If the expression that denotes the called function has a type that
- includes a prototype, the arguments are implicitly converted, as if by
- assignment, to the types of the corresponding parameters. The
- ellipsis notation in a function prototype declarator causes argument
- type conversion to stop after the last declared parameter. The
- default argument promotions are performed on trailing arguments. If
- the function is defined with a type that is not compatible with the
- type (of the expression) pointed to by the expression that denotes the
- called function, the behavior is undefined.
-
- No other conversions are performed implicitly; in particular, the
- number and types of arguments are not compared with those of the
- parameters in a function definition that does not include a function
- prototype declarator.
-
- The order of evaluation of the function designator, the arguments,
- and subexpressions within the arguments is unspecified, but there is a
- sequence point before the actual call.
-
- Recursive function calls shall be permitted, both directly and
- indirectly through any chain of other functions.
-
- Example
-
- In the function call=20
-
- (*pf[f1()]) (f2(), f3() + f4())
-
- the functions f1 , f2 , f3 , and f4 may be called in any order. All
- side effects shall be completed before the function pointed to by
- pf[f1()] is entered.

- 3.3.2.3 Structure and union members
-
- Constraints
-
- The first operand of the . operator shall have a qualified or
- unqualified structure or union type, and the second operand shall name
- a member of that type.
-
- The first operand of the -> operator shall have type ``pointer to
- qualified or unqualified structure'' or ``pointer to qualified or
- unqualified union,'' and the second operand shall name a member of the
- type pointed to.
-
- Semantics
-
- A postfix expression followed by a dot . and an identifier
- designates a member of a structure or union object. The value is that
- of the named member, and is an lvalue if the first expression is an
- lvalue. If the first expression has qualified type, the result has
- the so-qualified version of the type of the designated member.
-
- A postfix expression followed by an arrow -> and an identifier
- designates a member of a structure or union object. The value is that
- of the named member of the object to which the first expression
- points, and is an lvalue./32/ If the first expression is a pointer to
- a qualified type, the result has the so-qualified version of the type
- of the designated member.
-
- With one exception, if a member of a union object is accessed after
- a value has been stored in a different member of the object, the
- behavior is implementation-defined./33/ One special guarantee is made
- in order to simplify the use of unions: If a union contains several
- structures that share a common initial sequence, and if the union
- object currently contains one of these structures, it is permitted to
- inspect the common initial part of any of them. Two structures share
- a common initial sequence if corresponding members have compatible
- types for a sequence of one or more initial members.
-
- Example
-
- If f is a function returning a structure or union, and x is a
- member of that structure or union, f().x is a valid postfix expression
- but is not an lvalue.
-
- The following is a valid fragment:=20
-
- union {
- struct {
- int alltypes;
- } n;
- struct {
- int type;
- int intnode;
- } ni;

- The operand of the postfix increment or decrement operator shall

-
- Semantics
-
- The result of the postfix ++ operator is the value of the operand.

- Semantics
-
- The value of the operand of the prefix ++ operator is incremented.

- designator or an lvalue that designates an object that is not a
- bit-field and is not declared with the register storage-class
- specifier.
-
- The operand of the unary * operator shall have pointer type. =20
-
- Semantics
-
- The result of the unary & (address-of) operator is a pointer to the
- object or function designated by its operand. If the operand has type
- `` type ,'' the result has type ``pointer to type .''
-
- The unary * operator denotes indirection. If the operand points to
- a function, the result is a function designator; if it points to an
- object, the result is an lvalue designating the object. If the
- operand has type ``pointer to type ,'' the result has type `` type .''
- If an invalid value has been assigned to the pointer, the behavior of

-
- Semantics
-
- The result of the unary + operator is the value of its operand.
- The integral promotion is performed on the operand, and the result has
- the promoted type.
-
- The result of the unary - operator is the negative of its operand.
- The integral promotion is performed on the operand, and the result has
- the promoted type.
-
- The result of the ~ operator is the bitwise complement of its
- operand (that is, each bit in the result is set if and only if the
- corresponding bit in the converted operand is not set). The integral
- promotion is performed on the operand, and the result has the promoted
- type. The expression ~E is equivalent to (ULONG_MAX-E) if E is
- promoted to type unsigned long , to (UINT_MAX-E) if E is promoted to
- type unsigned int . (The constants ULONG_MAX and UINT_MAX are defined
- in the header <limits.h> .)
-
- The result of the logical negation operator ! is 0 if the value of

-
-
- 3.3.3.4 The sizeof operator
-
- Constraints
-
- The sizeof operator shall not be applied to an expression that has
- function type or an incomplete type, to the parenthesized name of such
- a type, or to an lvalue that designates a bit-field object.
-
- Semantics
-
- The sizeof operator yields the size (in bytes) of its operand,
- which may be an expression or the parenthesized name of a type. The
- size is determined from the type of the operand, which is not itself
- evaluated. The result is an integer constant.
-
- When applied to an operand that has type char , unsigned char , or
- signed char , (or a qualified version thereof) the result is 1. When
- applied to an operand that has array type, the result is the total
- number of bytes in the array./35/ When applied to an operand that has
- structure or union type, the result is the total number of bytes in
- such an object, including internal and trailing padding.
-
- The value of the result is implementation-defined, and its type (an
- unsigned integral type) is size_t defined in the <stddef.h> header.
-
- Examples
-
- A principal use of the sizeof operator is in communication with
- routines such as storage allocators and I/O systems. A
- storage-allocation function might accept a size (in bytes) of an
- object to allocate and return a pointer to void. For example:
-
- extern void *alloc();
- double *dp =3D alloc(sizeof *dp);
-
- The implementation of the alloc function should ensure that its return
- value is aligned suitably for conversion to a pointer to double.
-
- Another use of the sizeof operator is to compute the number of
- members in an array:
-
- sizeof array / sizeof array[0]

-
- Unless the type name specifies void type, the type name shall
- specify qualified or unqualified scalar type and the operand shall
- have scalar type.
-
- Semantics
-
- Preceding an expression by a parenthesized type name converts the
- value of the expression to the named type. This construction is
- called a cast. /36/ A cast that specifies an implicit conversion or no
- conversion has no effect on the type or value of an expression.
-
- Conversions that involve pointers (other than as permitted by the
- constraints of $3.3.16.1) shall be specified by means of an explicit
- cast; they have implementation-defined aspects: A pointer may be
- converted to an integral type. The size of integer required and the
- result are implementation-defined. If the space provided is not long
- enough, the behavior is undefined. An arbitrary integer may be
- converted to a pointer. The result is implementation-defined./37/ A
- pointer to an object or incomplete type may be converted to a pointer
- to a different object type or a different incomplete type. The
- resulting pointer might not be valid if it is improperly aligned for
- the type pointed to. It is guaranteed, however, that a pointer to an
- object of a given alignment may be converted to a pointer to an object
- of the same alignment or a less strict alignment and back again; the
- result shall compare equal to the original pointer. (An object that
- has character type has the least strict alignment.) A pointer to a
- function of one type may be converted to a pointer to a function of
- another type and back again; the result shall compare equal to the
- original pointer. If a converted pointer is used to call a function
- that has a type that is not compatible with the type of the called
- function, the behavior is undefined.

-
- Each of the operands shall have arithmetic type. The operands of

-
- Semantics
-
- The usual arithmetic conversions are performed on the operands.
-
- The result of the binary * operator is the product of the operands.
-
- The result of the / operator is the quotient from the division of
- the first operand by the second; the result of the % operator is the
- remainder. In both operations, if the value of the second operand is
- zero, the behavior is undefined.
-
- When integers are divided and the division is inexact, if both
- operands are positive the result of the / operator is the largest
- integer less than the algebraic quotient and the result of the %
- operator is positive. If either operand is negative, whether the
- result of the / operator is the largest integer less than the
- algebraic quotient or the smallest integer greater than the algebraic
- quotient is implementation-defined, as is the sign of the result of
- the % operator. If the quotient a/b is representable, the expression

-
- Syntax
-
- additive-expression:

- additive-expression + multiplicative-expression
- additive-expression - multiplicative-expression
-
- Constraints
-
- For addition, either both operands shall have arithmetic type, or
- one operand shall be a pointer to an object type and the other shall
- have integral type. (Incrementing is equivalent to adding 1.)
-
- For subtraction, one of the following shall hold:=20
-
- * both operands have arithmetic type;=20
-
- * both operands are pointers to qualified or unqualified versions of
- compatible object types; or
-
- * the left operand is a pointer to an object type and the right
- operand has integral type. (Decrementing is equivalent to subtracting 1=
- .)
-
- Semantics
-
- If both operands have arithmetic type, the usual arithmetic
- conversions are performed on them.
-
- The result of the binary + operator is the sum of the operands.
-
- The result of the binary - operator is the difference resulting
- from the subtraction of the second operand from the first.
-
- When an expression that has integral type is added to or subtracted
- from a pointer, the integral value is first multiplied by the size of
- the object pointed to. The result has the type of the pointer
- operand. If the pointer operand points to a member of an array
- object, and the array object is large enough, the result points to a
- member of the same array object, appropriately offset from the
- original member. Thus if P points to a member of an array object, the
- expression P+1 points to the next member of the array object. Unless
- both the pointer operand and the result point to a member of the same
- array object, or one past the last member of the array object, the
- behavior is undefined. Unless both the pointer operand and the result
- point to a member of the same array object, or the pointer operand
- points one past the last member of an array object and the result
- points to a member of the same array object, the behavior is undefined
- if the result is used as the operand of a unary * operator.
-
- When two pointers to members of the same array object are
- subtracted, the difference is divided by the size of a member. The
- result represents the difference of the subscripts of the two array
- members. The size of the result is implementation-defined, and its
- type (a signed integral type) is ptrdiff_t defined in the <stddef.h>
- header. As with any other arithmetic overflow, if the result does not
- fit in the space provided, the behavior is undefined. If two pointers
- that do not point to members of the same array object are subtracted,
- the behavior is undefined. However, if P points either to a member of
- an array object or one past the last member of an array object, and Q
- points to the last member of the same array object, the expression
- (Q+1) - P has the same value as (Q-P) + 1 , even though Q+1 does not
- point to a member of the array object.

- Each of the operands shall have integral type. =20

- Semantics
-
- The integral promotions are performed on each of the operands. The
- type of the result is that of the promoted left operand. If the value
- of the right operand is negative or is greater than or equal to the
- width in bits of the promoted left operand, the behavior is undefined.
-
- The result of E1 << E2 is E1 left-shifted E2 bit positions; vacate=
- d
- bits are filled with zeros. If E1 has an unsigned type, the value of
- the result is E1 multiplied by the quantity, 2 raised to the power E2,
- reduced modulo ULONG_MAX+1 if E1 has type unsigned long, UINT_MAX+1
- otherwise. (The constants ULONG_MAX and UINT_MAX are defined in the
- header <limits.h> .)
-
- The result of E1 >> E2 is E1 right-shifted E2 bit positions. If E=
- 1
- has an unsigned type or if E1 has a signed type and a nonnegative
- value, the value of the result is the integral part of the quotient of

-
- * one operand is a pointer to an object or incomplete type and the
- other is a pointer to a qualified or unqualified version of void .

- Semantics
-
- The first operand is evaluated; there is a sequence point after its
- evaluation. The second operand is evaluated only if the first
- compares unequal to 0; the third operand is evaluated only if the
- first compares equal to 0; the value of the second or third operand
- (whichever is evaluated) is the result./41/
-
- If both the second and third operands have arithmetic type, the
- usual arithmetic conversions are performed to bring them to a common
- type and the result has that type. If both the operands have
- structure or union type, the result has that type. If both operands
- have void type, the result has void type.
-
- If both the second and third operands are pointers or one is a null
- pointer constant and the other is a pointer, the result type is a
- pointer to a type qualified with all the type qualifiers of the types
- pointed-to by both operands. Furthermore, if both operands are
- pointers to compatible types or differently qualified versions of a
- compatible type, the result has the composite type; if one operand is
- a null pointer constant, the result has the type of the other operand;
- otherwise, one operand is a pointer to void or a qualified version of
- void, in which case the other operand is converted to type pointer to
- void, and the result has that type.

- Semantics
-
- An assignment operator stores a value in the object designated by

- Semantics
-
- In simple assignment ( =3D ), the value of the right operand is
- converted to the type of the assignment expression and replaces the
- value stored in the object designated by the left operand.
-
- If the value being stored in an object is accessed from another
- object that overlaps in any way the storage of the first object, then
- the overlap shall be exact and the two objects shall have qualified or
- unqualified versions of a compatible type; otherwise the behavior is
- undefined.

- Example
-
- In the program fragment=20
-
- int f(void);
- char c;
- /*...*/
- /*...*/ ((c =3D f()) =3D=3D -1) /*...*/
-
- the int value returned by the function may be truncated when stored in
- the char, and then converted back to int width prior to the
- comparison. In an implementation in which ``plain'' char has the same
- range of values as unsigned char (and char is narrower than int ), the
- result of the conversion cannot be negative, so the operands of the
- comparison can never compare equal. Therefore, for full portability
- the variable c should be declared as int.

-
- 3.3.16.2 Compound assignment
-
- Constraints
-
- For the operators +=3D and -=3D only, either the left operand shall be

- the left operand shall have qualified or unqualified arithmetic type
- and the right shall have arithmetic type.
-
- For the other operators, each operand shall have arithmetic type
- consistent with those allowed by the corresponding binary operator.
-

-
- Example
-
- As indicated by the syntax, in contexts where a comma is a
- punctuator (in lists of arguments to functions and lists of
- initializers) the comma operator as described in this section cannot
- appear. On the other hand, it can be used within a parenthesized
- expression or within the second expression of a conditional operator
- in such contexts. In the function call

-
- Description
-
- A constant expression can be evaluated during translation rather
- than runtime, and accordingly may be used in any place that a constant
- may be.
-
- Constraints
-
- Constant expressions shall not contain assignment, increment,
- decrement, function-call, or comma operators, except when they are
- contained within the operand of a sizeof operator./44/
-
- Each constant expression shall evaluate to a constant that is in
- the range of representable values for its type.
-
- Semantics
-
- An expression that evaluates to a constant is required in several
- contexts./45/ If the expression is evaluated in the translation
- environment, the arithmetic precision and range shall be at least as
- great as if the expression were being evaluated in the execution
- environment.
-
- An integral constant expression shall have integral type and shall
- only have operands that are integer constants, enumeration constants,
- character constants, sizeof expressions, and floating constants that
- are the immediate operands of casts. Cast operators in an integral
- constant expression shall only convert arithmetic types to integral
- types, except as part of an operand to the sizeof operator.
-
- More latitude is permitted for constant expressions in
- initializers. Such a constant expression shall evaluate to one of the
- following:
-
- * an arithmetic constant expression,=20
-
- * an address constant, or=20
-
- * an address constant for an object type plus or minus an integral
- constant expression.
-
- An arithmetic constant expression shall have arithmetic type and
- shall only have operands that are integer constants, floating
- constants, enumeration constants, character constants, and sizeof
- expressions. Cast operators in an arithmetic constant expression
- shall only convert arithmetic types to arithmetic types, except as
- part of an operand to the sizeof operator.
-
- An address constant is a pointer to an lvalue designating an object
- of static storage duration, or to a function designator; it shall be
- created explicitly, using the unary & operator, or implicitly, by the
- use of an expression of array or function type. The array-subscript
- [] and member-access . and -> operators, the address & and
- indirection * unary operators, and pointer casts may be used in the
- creation an address constant, but the value of an object shall not be
- accessed by use of these operators.
-
- The semantic rules for the evaluation of a constant expression are
- the same as for non-constant expressions./46/

- indicate the linkage, storage duration, and part of the type of the
- entities that the declarators denote. The init-declarator-list is a

- additional type information, or an initializer, or both. The
- declarators contain the identifiers (if any) being declared.

-
- A declaration of an identifier for an object with storage-class

- Constraints
-
- A structure or union shall not contain a member with incomplete or
- function type. Hence it shall not contain an instance of itself (but
- may contain a pointer to an instance of itself).
-
- The expression that specifies the width of a bit-field shall be an
- integral constant expression that has nonnegative value that shall not
- exceed the number of bits in an ordinary object of compatible type.
- If the value is zero, the declaration shall have no declarator.
-
- Semantics
-
- As discussed in $3.1.2.5, a structure is a type consisting of a
- sequence of named members, whose storage is allocated in an ordered
- sequence, and a union is a type consisting of a sequence of named
- members, whose storage overlap.
-
- Structure and union specifiers have the same form.
-
- The presence of a struct-declaration-list in a
- struct-or-union-specifier declares a new type, within a translation
- unit. The struct-declaration-list is a sequence of declarations for
- the members of the structure or union. The type is incomplete until
- after the } that terminates the list.
-
- A member of a structure or union may have any object type. In
- addition, a member may be declared to consist of a specified number of
- bits (including a sign bit, if any). Such a member is called a
- bit-field ;/50/ its width is preceded by a colon.
-
- A bit-field may have type int , unsigned int , or signed int .
- Whether the high-order bit position of a ``plain'' int bit-field is
- treated as a sign bit is implementation-defined. A bit-field is
- interpreted as an integral type consisting of the specified number of
- bits.
-
- An implementation may allocate any addressable storage unit large
- enough to hold a bit-field. If enough space remains, a bit-field that
- immediately follows another bit-field in a structure shall be packed
- into adjacent bits of the same unit. If insufficient space remains,
- whether a bit-field that does not fit is put into the next unit or
- overlaps adjacent units is implementation-defined. The order of
- allocation of bit-fields within a unit (high-order to low-order or
- low-order to high-order) is implementation-defined. The alignment of
- the addressable storage unit is unspecified.
-
- A bit-field declaration with no declarator, but only a colon and a
- width, indicates an unnamed bit-field./51/ As a special case of this,
- a bit-field with a width of 0 indicates that no further bit-field is
- to be packed into the unit in which the previous bit-field, if any,
- was placed.
-
- Each non-bit-field member of a structure or union object is aligned
- in an implementation-defined manner appropriate to its type.
-
- Within a structure object, the non-bit-field members and the units
- in which bit-fields reside have addresses that increase in the order
- in which they are declared. A pointer to a structure object, suitably
- cast, points to its initial member (or if that member is a bit-field,
- then to the unit in which it resides), and vice versa. There may
- therefore be unnamed holes within a structure object, but not at its
- beginning, as necessary to achieve the appropriate alignment.
-
- The size of a union is sufficient to contain the largest of its
- members. The value of at most one of the members can be stored in a
- union object at any time. A pointer to a union object, suitably cast,
- points to each of its members (or if a member is a bit-field, then to
- the unit in which it resides), and vice versa.
-
- There may also be unnamed padding at the end of a structure or
- union, as necessary to achieve the appropriate alignment were the
- structure or union to be a member of an array.

- 3.5.2.2 Enumeration specifiers
-
- Syntax
-
- enum-specifier:
- enum identifier<opt> { enumerator-list }
- enum identifier
-
- enumerator-list:
- enumerator
- enumerator-list , enumerator
-
- enumerator:
- enumeration-constant
- enumeration-constant =3D constant-expression
-
- Constraints
-
- The expression that defines the value of an enumeration constant
- shall be an integral constant expression that has a value
- representable as an int.
-
- Semantics
-
- The identifiers in an enumerator list are declared as constants
- that have type int and may appear wherever such are permitted./52/ An
- enumerator with =3D defines its enumeration constant as the value of the
- constant expression. If the first enumerator has no =3D , the value of
- its enumeration constant is 0. Each subsequent enumerator with no =3D
- defines its enumeration constant as the value of the constant
- expression obtained by adding 1 to the value of the previous
- enumeration constant. (A combination of both forms of enumerators may
- produce enumeration constants with values that duplicate other values
- in the same enumeration.) The enumerators of an enumeration are also
- known as its members.
-
- Each enumerated type shall be compatible with an integer type; the
- choice of type is implementation-defined.
-
- Example
-
- enum hue { chartreuse, burgundy, claret=3D20, winedark };
- /*...*/
- enum hue col, *cp;
- /*...*/
- col =3D claret;
- cp =3D &col;
- /*...*/
- /*...*/ (*cp !=3D burgundy) /*...*/
-
- makes hue the tag of an enumeration, and then declares col as an
- object that has that type and cp as a pointer to an object that has
- that type. The enumerated values are in the set {0, 1, 20, 21}.
-
-
- 3.5.2.3 Tags
-
- A type specifier of the form=20
-
- struct-or-union identifier { struct-declaration-list }
- enum identifier { enumerator-list }
-
- declares the identifier to be the tag of the structure, union, or
- enumeration specified by the list. The list defines the structure
- content ,union content ,or enumeration content .If this declaration of
- the tag is visible, a subsequent declaration that uses the tag and
- that omits the bracketed list specifies the declared structure, union,
- or enumerated type. Subsequent declarations in the same scope shall
- omit the bracketed list.
-
- If a type specifier of the form=20
-
- struct-or-union identifier
-
- occurs prior to the declaration that defines the content, the
- structure or union is an incomplete type./53/ It declares a tag that
- specifies a type that may be used only when the size of an object of
- the specified type is not needed./54/ If the type is to be completed,
- another declaration of the tag in the same scope (but not in an
- enclosed block, which declares a new type known only within that
- block) shall define the content. A declaration of the form
-
- struct-or-union identifier ;
-
- specifies a structure or union type and declares a tag, both visible
- only within the scope in which the declaration occurs. It specifies a
- new type distinct from any type with the same tag in an enclosing
- scope (if any).
-
- A type specifier of the form=20
-
- struct-or-union { struct-declaration-list }
- enum { enumerator-list }
-
- specifies a new structure, union, or enumerated type, within the
- translation unit, that can only be referred to by the declaration of
- which it is a part./55/
-
- Examples
-
- This mechanism allows declaration of a self-referential structure. =20
-
- struct tnode {
- int count;
- struct tnode *left, *right;
- };
-
- specifies a structure that contains an integer and two pointers to
- objects of the same type. Once this declaration has been given, the
- declaration
-
- struct tnode s, *sp;
-
- declares s to be an object of the given type and sp to be a pointer to
- an object of the given type. With these declarations, the expression
- sp->left refers to the left struct tnode pointer of the object to
- which sp points; the expression s.right->count designates the count
- member of the right struct tnode pointed to from s .
-
- The following alternative formulation uses the typedef mechanism:=20
-
- typedef struct tnode TNODE;
- struct tnode {
- int count;
- TNODE *left, *right;
- };
- TNODE s, *sp;
-
- To illustrate the use of prior declaration of a tag to specify a
- pair of mutually-referential structures, the declarations
-
- struct s1 { struct s2 *s2p; /*...*/ }; /* D1 */
- struct s2 { struct s1 *s1p; /*...*/ }; /* D2 */
-
- specify a pair of structures that contain pointers to each other.
- Note, however, that if s2 were already declared as a tag in an
- enclosing scope, the declaration D1 would refer to it, not to the tag
- s2 declared in D2 . To eliminate this context sensitivity, the
- otherwise vacuous declaration
-
- struct s2;
-
- may be inserted ahead of D1. This declares a new tag s2 in the inner
- scope; the declaration D2 then completes the specification of the new type.

- 3.5.3 Type qualifiers
-
- Syntax
-
- type-qualifier:
- const
- volatile
-
- Constraints
-
- The same type qualifier shall not appear more than once in the same
- specifier list or qualifier list, either directly or via one or more
- typedef s.
-
- Semantics
-
- The properties associated with qualified types are meaningful only
- for expressions that are lvalues./56/
-
- If an attempt is made to modify an object defined with a
- const-qualified type through use of an lvalue with non-const-qualified
- type, the behavior is undefined. If an attempt is made to refer to an
- object defined with a volatile-qualified type through use of an lvalue
- with non-volatile-qualified type, the behavior is undefined./57/
-
- An object that has volatile-qualified type may be modified in ways
- unknown to the implementation or have other unknown side effects.
- Therefore any expression referring to such an object shall be
- evaluated strictly according to the rules of the abstract machine, as
- described in $2.1.2.3. Furthermore, at every sequence point the value
- last stored in the object shall agree with that prescribed by the
- abstract machine, except as modified by the unknown factors mentioned
- previously./58/ What constitutes an access to an object that has
- volatile-qualified type is implementation-defined.
-
- If the specification of an array type includes any type qualifiers,
- the element type is so-qualified, not the array type. If the
- specification of a function type includes any type qualifiers, the
- behavior is undefined./59/
-
- For two qualified types to be compatible, both shall have the
- identically qualified version of a compatible type; the order of type
- qualifiers within a list of specifiers or qualifiers does not affect
- the specified type.
-
- Examples
-
- An object declared=20
-
- extern const volatile int real_time_clock;
-
- may be modifiable by hardware, but cannot be assigned to, incremented,
- or decremented.
-
- The following declarations and expressions illustrate the behavior
- when type qualifiers modify an aggregate type:
-
- const struct s { int mem; } cs =3D { 1 };
- struct s ncs; /* the object ncs is modifiable */
- typedef int A[2][3];
- const A a =3D {{4, 5, 6}, {7, 8, 9}}; /* array of array of const =
- int */
- int *pi;
- const int *pci;
-
- ncs =3D cs; /* valid */
- cs =3D ncs; /* violates modifiable lvalue constraint for =3D=
- */
- pi =3D &ncs.mem; /* valid */
- pi =3D &cs.mem; /* violates type constraints for =3D */
- pci =3D &cs.mem; /* valid */
- pi =3D a[0]; /* invalid: a[0] has type ``const int * '' */

- parameter-declaration:
- declaration-specifiers declarator
- declaration-specifiers abstract-declarator<opt>
-
- identifier-list:
- identifier
- identifier-list , identifier
-
- Semantics
-
- Each declarator declares one identifier, and asserts that when an
- operand of the same form as the declarator appears in an expression,
- it designates a function or object with the scope, storage duration,
- and type indicated by the declaration specifiers.
-
- In the following subsections, consider a declaration=20
-
- T D1
-
- where T contains the declaration specifiers that specify a type T
- (such as int) and D1 is a declarator that contains an identifier
- ident . The type specified for the identifier ident in the various
- forms of declarator is described inductively using this notation.
-
- If, in the declaration `` T D1 ,'' D1 has the form=20
-
- identifier
-
- then the type specified for ident is T .
-
- If, in the declaration `` T D1 ,'' D1 has the form=20
-
- ( D )
-
- then ident has the type specified by the declaration `` T D .'' Thus,
- a declarator in parentheses is identical to the unparenthesized
- declarator, but the binding of complex declarators may be altered by
- parentheses.
-
- "Implementation limits"
-
- The implementation shall allow the specification of types that have
- at least 12 pointer, array, and function declarators (in any valid
- combinations) modifying an arithmetic, a structure, a union, or an
- incomplete type, either directly or via one or more typedef s.
-
- Forward references: type definitions ($3.5.6). =20

- 3.5.4.1 Pointer declarators
-
- Semantics
-
- If, in the declaration `` T D1 ,'' D1 has the form=20
-
- * type-qualifier-list<opt> D
-
- and the type specified for ident in the declaration `` T D '' is ``
- "derived-declarator-type-list T" ,'' then the type specified for ident
- is `` "derived-declarator-type-list type-qualifier-list" pointer to T.''
- For each type qualifier in the list, ident is a so-qualified pointer.
-
- For two pointer types to be compatible, both shall be identically
- qualified and both shall be pointers to compatible types.
-
- Examples
-
- The following pair of declarations demonstrates the difference
- between a ``variable pointer to a constant value'' and a ``constant
- pointer to a variable value.''
-
- const int *ptr_to_constant;
- int *const constant_ptr;
-
- The contents of the const int pointed to by ptr_to_constant shall not
- be modified, but ptr_to_constant itself may be changed to point to
- another const int . Similarly, the contents of the int pointed to by
- constant_ptr may be modified, but constant_ptr itself shall always
- point to the same location.
-
- The declaration of the constant pointer constant_ptr may be
- clarified by including a definition for the type ``pointer to int .''
-
- typedef int *int_ptr;
- const int_ptr constant_ptr;
-
- declares constant_ptr as an object that has type ``const-qualified
- pointer to int .''
-
-
- 3.5.4.2 Array declarators
-
- Constraints
-
- The expression that specifies the size of an array shall be an
- integral constant expression that has a value greater than zero.
-
- Semantics
-
- If, in the declaration `` T D1 ,'' D1 has the form=20
-
- D[ constant-expression<opt>]
-
- and the type specified for ident in the declaration `` T D '' is ``
- "derived-declarator-type-list T" ,'' then the type specified for ident
- is `` derived-declarator-type-list array of T .''/60/ If the size is
- not present, the array type is an incomplete type.
-
- For two array types to be compatible, both shall have compatible
- element types, and if both size specifiers are present, they shall
- have the same value.
-
- Examples
-
- float fa[11], *afp[17];
-
- declares an array of float numbers and an array of pointers to float
- numbers.
-
- Note the distinction between the declarations=20
-
- extern int *x;
- extern int y[];
-
- The first declares x to be a pointer to int ; the second declares y to
- be an array of int of unspecified size (an incomplete type), the
- storage for which is defined elsewhere.
-

-
-
- 3.5.4.3 Function declarators (including prototypes)
-
- Constraints
-
- A function declarator shall not specify a return type that is a
- function type or an array type.
-
- The only storage-class specifier that shall occur in a parameter
- declaration is register.
-
- An identifier list in a function declarator that is not part of a
- function definition shall be empty.
-
- Semantics
-
- If, in the declaration `` T D1 ,'' D1 has the form=20
-
- D( parameter-type-list)
- D( identifier-list<opt>)
-
- and the type specified for ident in the declaration `` T D '' is ``
- "derived-declarator-type-list T" ,'' then the type specified for ident
- is `` derived-declarator-type-list function returning T .''
-
- A parameter type list specifies the types of, and may declare
- identifiers for, the parameters of the function. If the list
- terminates with an ellipsis ( , ... ), no information about the number
- or types of the parameters after the comma is supplied./61/ The
- special case of void as the only item in the list specifies that the
- function has no parameters.
-
- In a parameter declaration, a single typedef name in parentheses is
- taken to be an abstract declarator that specifies a function with a
- single parameter, not as redundant parentheses around the identifier
- for a declarator.
-
- The storage-class specifier in the declaration specifiers for a
- parameter declaration, if present, is ignored unless the declared
- parameter is one of the members of the parameter type list for a
- function definition.
-
- An identifier list declares only the identifiers of the parameters
- of the function. An empty list in a function declarator that is part
- of a function definition specifies that the function has no
- parameters. The empty list in a function declarator that is not part
- of a function definition specifies that no information about the
- number or types of the parameters is supplied./62/
-
- For two function types to be compatible, both shall specify
- compatible return types./63/ Moreover, the parameter type lists, if
- both are present, shall agree in the number of parameters and in use
- of the ellipsis terminator; corresponding parameters shall have
- compatible types. If one type has a parameter type list and the other
- type is specified by a function declarator that is not part of a
- function definition and that contains an empty identifier list, the
- parameter list shall not have an ellipsis terminator and the type of
- each parameter shall be compatible with the type that results from the
- application of the default argument promotions. If one type has a
- parameter type list and the other type is specified by a function
- definition that contains a (possibly empty) identifier list, both
- shall agree in the number of parameters, and the type of each
- prototype parameter shall be compatible with the type that results
- from the application of the default argument promotions to the type of
- the corresponding identifier. (For each parameter declared with
- function or array type, its type for these comparisons is the one that
- results from conversion to a pointer type, as in $3.7.1. For each
- parameter declared with qualified type, its type for these comparisons
- is the unqualified version of its declared type.)
-
- Examples
-
- The declaration=20
-
- int f(void), *fip(), (*pfi)();
-
- declares a function f with no parameters returning an int , a function
- fip with no parameter specification returning a pointer to an int ,
- and a pointer pfi to a function with no parameter specification
- returning an int . It is especially useful to compare the last two.
- The binding of *fip() is *(fip()) , so that the declaration suggests,
- and the same construction in an expression requires, the calling of a
- function fip , and then using indirection through the pointer result
- to yield an int . In the declarator (*pfi)() , the extra parentheses
- are necessary to indicate that indirection through a pointer to a
- function yields a function designator, which is then used to call the
- function; it returns an int.
-
- If the declaration occurs outside of any function, the identifiers
- have file scope and external linkage. If the declaration occurs
- inside a function, the identifiers of the functions f and fip have
- block scope and external linkage, and the identifier of the pointer
- pfi has block scope and no linkage.
-
- Here are two more intricate examples. =20
-
- int (*apfi[3])(int *x, int *y);
-
- declares an array apfi of three pointers to functions returning int .
- Each of these functions has two parameters that are pointers to int .
- The identifiers x and y are declared for descriptive purposes only and
- go out of scope at the end of the declaration of apfi . The
- declaration
-
- int (*fpfi(int (*)(long), int))(int, ...);
-
- declares a function fpfi that returns a pointer to a function
- returning an int. The function fpfi has two parameters: a pointer to
- a function returning an int (with one parameter of type long ), and an
- int . The pointer returned by fpfi points to a function that has at
- least one parameter, which has type int .

-
-
- 3.5.6 Type definitions
-
- Syntax
-
- typedef-name:
- identifier
-
- Semantics
-
- In a declaration whose storage-class specifier is typedef , each
- declarator defines an identifier to be a typedef name that specifies
- the type specified for the identifier in the way described in $3.5.4.
- A typedef declaration does not introduce a new type, only a synonym
- for the type so specified. That is, in the following declarations:
-
- typedef T type_ident;
- type_ident D;
-
- type_ident is defined as a typedef name with the type specified by the
- declaration specifiers in T (known as T ), and the identifier in D has
- the type `` "derived-declarator-type-list T" '' where the
- derived-declarator-type-list is specified by the declarators of D . A
- typedef name shares the same name space as other identifiers declared
- in ordinary declarators. If the identifier is redeclared in an inner
- scope or is declared as a member of a structure or union in the same
- or an inner scope, the type specifiers shall not be omitted in the
- inner declaration.
-
- Examples
-
- After=20
-
- typedef int MILES, KLICKSP();
- typedef struct { double re, im; } complex;
-
- the constructions=20
-
- MILES distance;
- extern KLICKSP *metricp;
- complex x;
- complex z, *zp;
-
- are all valid declarations. The type of distance is int , that of
- metricp is ``pointer to function with no parameter specification
- returning int ,'' and that of x and z is the specified structure; zp
- is a pointer to such a structure. The object distance has a type
- compatible with any other int object.
-
- After the declarations=20
-
- typedef struct s1 { int x; } t1, *tp1;
- typedef struct s2 { int x; } t2, *tp2;
-
- type t1 and the type pointed to by tp1 are compatible. Type t1 is
- also compatible with type struct s1 , but not compatible with the
- types struct s2 , t2 , the type pointed to by tp2 , and int .
-
- The following constructions=20
-
- typedef signed int t;
- typedef int plain;
- struct tag {
- unsigned t:4;
- const t:5;
- plain r:5;
- };
-
- declare a typedef name t with type signed int , a typedef name plain
- with type int , and a structure with three bit-field members, one
- named t that contains values in the range [0,15], an unnamed
- const-qualified bit-field which (if it could be accessed) would
- contain values in at least the range [-15,+15], and one named r that
- contains values in the range [0,31] or values in at least the range
- [-15,+15]. (The choice of range is implementation-defined.) If these
- declarations are followed in an inner scope by
-
- t f(t (t));
- long t;
-
- then a function f is declared with type ``function returning signed
- int with one unnamed parameter with type pointer to function returning
- signed int with one unnamed parameter with type signed int ,'' and an
- identifier t with type long .

-
- initializer:
- assignment-expression
- { initializer-list }=20
- { initializer-list , }
-
- initializer-list:
- initializer
- initializer-list , initializer
-
- Constraints
-
- There shall be no more initializers in an initializer list than
- there are objects to be initialized.
-
- The type of the entity to be initialized shall be an object type or
- an array of unknown size.
-
- All the expressions in an initializer for an object that has static
- storage duration or in an initializer list for an object that has
- aggregate or union type shall be constant expressions.
-
- If the declaration of an identifier has block scope, and the
- identifier has external or internal linkage, there shall be no
- initializer for the identifier.
-
- Semantics
-
- An initializer specifies the initial value stored in an object.
-
- All unnamed structure or union members are ignored during initialization=
- .
-
- If an object that has static storage duration is not initialized
- explicitly, it is initialized implicitly as if every member that has
- arithmetic type were assigned 0 and every member that has pointer type
- were assigned a null pointer constant. If an object that has
- automatic storage duration is not initialized explicitly, its value is
- indeterminate./65/
-
- The initializer for a scalar shall be a single expression,
- optionally enclosed in braces. The initial value of the object is
- that of the expression; the same type constraints and conversions as
- for simple assignment apply.
-
- A brace-enclosed initializer for a union object initializes the
- member that appears first in the declaration list of the union type.
-
- The initializer for a structure or union object that has automatic
- storage duration either shall be an initializer list as described
- below, or shall be a single expression that has compatible structure
- or union type. In the latter case, the initial value of the object is
- that of the expression.
-
- The rest of this section deals with initializers for objects that
- have aggregate or union type.
-
- An array of character type may be initialized by a character string
- literal, optionally enclosed in braces. Successive characters of the
- character string literal (including the terminating null character if
- there is room or if the array is of unknown size) initialize the
- members of the array.
-
- An array with element type compatible with wchar_t may be
- initialized by a wide string literal, optionally enclosed in braces.
- Successive codes of the wide string literal (including the terminating
- zero-valued code if there is room or if the array is of unknown size)
- initialize the members of the array.
-
- Otherwise, the initializer for an object that has aggregate type
- shall be a brace-enclosed list of initializers for the members of the
- aggregate, written in increasing subscript or member order; and the
- initializer for an object that has union type shall be a
- brace-enclosed initializer for the first member of the union.
-
- If the aggregate contains members that are aggregates or unions, or
- if the first member of a union is an aggregate or union, the rules
- apply recursively to the subaggregates or contained unions. If the
- initializer of a subaggregate or contained union begins with a left
- brace, the initializers enclosed by that brace and its matching right
- brace initialize the members of the subaggregate or the first member
- of the contained union. Otherwise, only enough initializers from the
- list are taken to account for the members of the first subaggregate or
- the first member of the contained union; any remaining initializers
- are left to initialize the next member of the aggregate of which the
- current subaggregate or contained union is a part.
-
- If there are fewer initializers in a list than there are members of
- an aggregate, the remainder of the aggregate shall be initialized
- implicitly the same as objects that have static storage duration.
-
- If an array of unknown size is initialized, its size is determined
- by the number of initializers provided for its members. At the end of
- its initializer list, the array no longer has incomplete type.
-
- Examples
-
- The declaration=20
-
- int x[] =3D { 1, 3, 5 };
-
- defines and initializes x as a one-dimensional array object that has
- three members, as no size was specified and there are three
- initializers.
-
- float y[4][3] =3D {
- { 1, 3, 5 },
- { 2, 4, 6 },
- { 3, 5, 7 },
- };
-
- is a definition with a fully bracketed initialization: 1, 3, and 5
- initialize the first row of the array object y[0] , namely y[0][0] ,
- y[0][1] , and y[0][2] . Likewise the next two lines initialize y[1]
- and y[2] . The initializer ends early, so y[3] is initialized with
- zeros. Precisely the same effect could have been achieved by
-
- float y[4][3] =3D {
- 1, 3, 5, 2, 4, 6, 3, 5, 7
- };
-
- The initializer for y[0] does not begin with a left brace, so three
- items from the list are used. Likewise the next three are taken
- successively for y[1] and y[2] . Also,
-
- float z[4][3] =3D {
- { 1 }, { 2 }, { 3 }, { 4 }
- };
-
- initializes the first column of z as specified and initializes the
- rest with zeros.
- =20
- struct { int a[3], b; } w[] =3D { { 1 }, 2 };
-
- is a definition with an inconsistently bracketed initialization. It
- defines an array with two member structures: w[0].a[0] is 1 and
- w[1].a[0] is 2; all the other elements are zero.
-
- The declaration=20
-
- short q[4][3][2] =3D {
- { 1 },
- { 2, 3 },
- { 4, 5, 6 }
- };
-
- contains an incompletely but consistently bracketed initialization.
- It defines a three-dimensional array object: q[0][0][0] is 1,
- q[1][0][0] is 2, q[1][0][1] is 3, and 4, 5, and 6 initialize
- q[2][0][0] , q[2][0][1] , and q[2][1][0] , respectively; all the rest
- are zero. The initializer for q[0][0][0] does not begin with a left
- brace, so up to six items from the current list may be used. There is
- only one, so the values for the remaining five members are initialized
- with zero. Likewise, the initializers for q[1][0][0] and q[2][0][0]
- do not begin with a left brace, so each uses up to six items,
- initializing their respective two-dimensional subaggregates. If there
- had been more than six items in any of the lists, a diagnostic message
- would occur. The same initialization result could have been achieved
- by:
-
- short q[4][3][2] =3D {
- 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0,
- 2, 3, 0, 0, 0, 0,
- 4, 5, 6
- };
-
- or by:=20
-
- short q[4][3][2] =3D {
- {
- { 1 },
- },
- {
- { 2, 3 },
- },
- {
- { 4, 5 },
- { 6 },
- }
- };
-
- in a fully-bracketed form.
-
- Note that the fully-bracketed and minimally-bracketed forms of
- initialization are, in general, less likely to cause confusion.
-
- Finally, the declaration=20
-
- char s[] =3D "abc", t[3] =3D "abc";
-
- defines ``plain'' char array objects s and t whose members are
- initialized with character string literals. This declaration is
- identical to
-
- char s[] =3D { 'a', 'b', 'c', '\0' },
- t[] =3D { 'a', 'b', 'c' };
-
- The contents of the arrays are modifiable. On the other hand, the
- declaration
-
- char *p =3D "abc";
-
- defines p with type ``pointer to char '' that is initialized to point
- to an object with type ``array of char '' whose members are
- initialized with a character string literal. If an attempt is made to
- use p to modify the contents of the array, the behavior is undefined.

-
- A compound statement (also called a block )allows a set of
- statements to be grouped into one syntactic unit, which may have its
- own set of declarations and initializations (as discussed in
- $3.1.2.4). The initializers of objects that have automatic storage
- duration are evaluated and the values are stored in the objects in the
- order their declarators appear in the translation unit.

-
- 3.6.3 Expression and null statements
-
- Syntax
-
- expression-statement:
- expression<opt> ;
-
- Semantics
-
- The expression in an expression statement is evaluated as a void
- expression for its side effects./66/
-
- A null statement (consisting of just a semicolon) performs no
- operations.
-
- Examples
-
- If a function call is evaluated as an expression statement for its
- side effects only, the discarding of its value may be made explicit by
- converting the expression to a void expression by means of a cast:
-
- int p(int);
- /*...*/
- (void)p(0);
-
-
- In the program fragment=20
-
- char *s;
- /*...*/
- while (*s++ !=3D '\0')
- ;
-
- a null statement is used to supply an empty loop body to the iteration
- statement.
-
- A null statement may also be used to carry a label just before the
- closing } of a compound statement.
-
- while (loop1) {
- /*...*/
- while (loop2) {
- /*...*/
- if (want_out)
- goto end_loop1;

- 3.6.4 Selection statements
-
- Syntax
-
- selection-statement:
- if ( expression ) statement
- if ( expression ) statement else statement
- switch ( expression ) statement
-
- Semantics
-
- A selection statement selects among a set of statements depending
- on the value of a controlling expression.
-
-
- 3.6.4.1 The if statement
-
- Constraints
-
- The controlling expression of an if statement shall have scalar type. =
- =20
-
- Semantics
-
- In both forms, the first substatement is executed if the expression
- compares unequal to 0. In the else form, the second substatement is
- executed if the expression compares equal to 0. If the first
- substatement is reached via a label, the second substatement is not
- executed.
-
- An else is associated with the lexically immediately preceding else
- -less if that is in the same block (but not in an enclosed block).
-
-
- 3.6.4.2 The switch statement
-
- Constraints
-
- The controlling expression of a switch statement shall have
- integral type. The expression of each case label shall be an integral
- constant expression. No two of the case constant expressions in the
- same switch statement shall have the same value after conversion.
- There may be at most one default label in a switch statement. (Any
- enclosed switch statement may have a default label or case constant
- expressions with values that duplicate case constant expressions in
- the enclosing switch statement.)
-
- Semantics
-
- A switch statement causes control to jump to, into, or past the
- statement that is the switch body, depending on the value of a
- controlling expression, and on the presence of a default label and the
- values of any case labels on or in the switch body. A case or default
- label is accessible only within the closest enclosing switch
- statement.
-
- The integral promotions are performed on the controlling
- expression. The constant expression in each case label is converted
- to the promoted type of the controlling expression. If a converted
- value matches that of the promoted controlling expression, control
- jumps to the statement following the matched case label. Otherwise,
- if there is a default label, control jumps to the labeled statement.
- If no converted case constant expression matches and there is no
- default label, no part of the switch body is executed.
-
- "Implementation limits"
-
- As discussed previously ($2.2.4.1), the implementation may limit
- the number of case values in a switch statement.
-
-
- 3.6.5 Iteration statements
-
- Syntax
-
- iteration-statement:
- while ( expression ) statement
- do statement while ( expression ) ;
- for ( expression<opt> ; expression<opt> ;
- expression<opt> ) statement
-
- Constraints
-
- The controlling expression of an iteration statement shall have scalar t=
- ype. =20
- Semantics
-
- An iteration statement causes a statement called the loop body to
- be executed repeatedly until the controlling expression compares equal
- to 0.
-
-
- 3.6.5.1 The while statement
-
- The evaluation of the controlling expression takes place before
- each execution of the loop body.
-
-
- 3.6.5.2 The do statement
-
- The evaluation of the controlling expression takes place after each
- execution of the loop body.
-
-
- 3.6.5.3 The for statement
-
- Except for the behavior of a continue statement in the loop body,
- the statement
-
- for ( expression-1 ; expression-2 ; expression-3 ) statement
-
- and the sequence of statements=20
-
- expression-1 ;
- while ( expression-2) {
- statement
- expression-3 ;
- }
-
- are equivalent./67/ expression-1 expression-2 , expression-3
-
- Both expression-1 and expression-3 may be omitted. Each is
- evaluated as a void expression. An omitted expression-2 is replaced
- by a nonzero constant.

-
- 3.6.6 Jump statements
-
- Syntax
-
- jump-statement:
- goto identifier ;
- continue ;
- break ;
- return expression<opt> ;
-
- Semantics
-
- A jump statement causes an unconditional jump to another place. =20
-
-
- 3.6.6.1 The goto statement
-
- Constraints
-
- The identifier in a goto statement shall name a label located
- somewhere in the current function.
-
- Semantics
-
- A goto statement causes an unconditional jump to the statement
- prefixed by the named label in the current function.
-
-
- 3.6.6.2 The continue statement
-
- Constraints
-
- A continue statement shall appear only in or as a loop body. =20
-
- Semantics
-
- A continue statement causes a jump to the loop-continuation portion
- of the smallest enclosing iteration statement; that is, to the end of
- the loop body. More precisely, in each of the statements
-
- while (/*...*/) { do { for (/*...*/) {
- /*...*/ /*...*/ /*...*/
- continue; continue; continue;
- /*...*/ /*...*/ /*...*/
- contin: ; contin: ; contin: ;
- } } while (/*...*/); }
-
- unless the continue statement shown is in an enclosed iteration
- statement (in which case it is interpreted within that statement), it
- is equivalent to goto contin; ./68/
-
-
- 3.6.6.3 The break statement
-
- Constraints
-
- A break statement shall appear only in or as a switch body or loop body.=
- =20
-
- Semantics
-
- A break statement terminates execution of the smallest enclosing
- switch or iteration statement.
-
-
- 3.6.6.4 The return statement
-
- Constraints
-
- A return statement with an expression shall not appear in a
- function whose return type is void .
-
- Semantics
-
- A return statement terminates execution of the current function and
- returns control to its caller. A function may have any number of
- return statements, with and without expressions.
-
- If a return statement with an expression is executed, the value of
- the expression is returned to the caller as the value of the function
- call expression. If the expression has a type different from that of
- the function in which it appears, it is converted as if it were
- assigned to an object of that type.
-
- If a return statement without an expression is executed, and the
- value of the function call is used by the caller, the behavior is
- undefined. Reaching the } that terminates a function is equivalent to
- executing a return statement without an expression.

- 3.7 EXTERNAL DEFINITIONS
-
- Syntax
-
- translation-unit:
- external-declaration
- translation-unit external-declaration
-
- external-declaration:
- function-definition
- declaration
-
- Constraints
-
- The storage-class specifiers auto and register shall not appear in
- the declaration specifiers in an external declaration.
-
- There shall be no more than one external definition for each
- identifier declared with internal linkage in a translation unit.
- Moreover, if an identifier declared with internal linkage is used in
- an expression (other than as a part of the operand of a sizeof
- operator), there shall be exactly one external definition for the
- identifier in the translation unit.
-
- Semantics
-
- As discussed in $2.1.1.1, the unit of program text after
- preprocessing is a translation unit, which consists of a sequence of
- external declarations. These are described as ``external'' because
- they appear outside any function (and hence have file scope). As
- discussed in $3.5, a declaration that also causes storage to be
- reserved for an object or a function named by the identifier is a
- definition.
-
- An external definition is an external declaration that is also a
- definition of a function or an object. If an identifier declared with
- external linkage is used in an expression (other than as part of the
- operand of a sizeof operator), somewhere in the entire program there
- shall be exactly one external definition for the identifier./69/
-
-
- 3.7.1 Function definitions
-
- Syntax
-
- function-definition:
- declaration-specifiers<opt> declarator
- declaration-list<opt> compound-statement
-
- Constraints
-
- The identifier declared in a function definition (which is the name
- of the function) shall have a function type, as specified by the
- declarator portion of the function definition./70/
-
- The return type of a function shall be void or an object type other
- than array.
-
- The storage-class specifier, if any, in the declaration specifiers
- shall be either extern or static .
-
- If the declarator includes a parameter type list, the declaration
- of each parameter shall include an identifier (except for the special
- case of a parameter list consisting of a single parameter of type void,
- in which there shall not be an identifier). No declaration list
- shall follow.
-
- If the declarator includes an identifier list, only the identifiers
- it names shall be declared in the declaration list. An identifier
- declared as a typedef name shall not be redeclared as a parameter.
- The declarations in the declaration list shall contain no
- storage-class specifier other than register and no initializations.
-
- Semantics
-
- The declarator in a function definition specifies the name of the
- function being defined and the identifiers of its parameters. If the
- declarator includes a parameter type list, the list also specifies the
- types of all the parameters; such a declarator also serves as a
- function prototype for later calls to the same function in the same
- translation unit. If the declarator includes an identifier list,/71/
- the types of the parameters may be declared in a following declaration
- list. Any parameter that is not declared has type int .
-
- If a function that accepts a variable number of arguments is
- defined without a parameter type list that ends with the ellipsis
- notation, the behavior is undefined.
-
- On entry to the function the value of each argument expression
- shall be converted to the type of its corresponding parameter, as if
- by assignment to the parameter. Array expressions and function
- designators as arguments are converted to pointers before the call. A
- declaration of a parameter as ``array of type '' shall be adjusted to
- ``pointer to type ,'' and a declaration of a parameter as ``function
- returning type '' shall be adjusted to ``pointer to function returning
- type ,'' as in $3.2.2.1. The resulting parameter type shall be an
- object type.
-
- Each parameter has automatic storage duration. Its identifier is
- an lvalue./72/ The layout of the storage for parameters is
- unspecified.
-
- Examples
-
- extern int max(int a, int b)
- {
- return a > b ? a : b;
- }
-
- Here extern is the storage-class specifier and int is the type
- specifier (each of which may be omitted as those are the defaults);
- max(int a, int b) is the function declarator; and
-
- { return a > b ? a : b; }
-
- is the function body. The following similar definition uses the
- identifier-list form for the parameter declarations:
-
- extern int max(a, b)
- int a, b;
- {
- return a > b ? a : b;
- }
-
- Here int a, b; is the declaration list for the parameters, which may
- be omitted because those are the defaults. The difference between
- these two definitions is that the first form acts as a prototype
- declaration that forces conversion of the arguments of subsequent
- calls to the function, whereas the second form may not.
-
- To pass one function to another, one might say=20
-
- int f(void);
- /*...*/
- g(f);
-
- Note that f must be declared explicitly in the calling function, as
- its appearance in the expression g(f) was not followed by ( . Then
- the definition of g might read
-
- g(int (*funcp)(void))
- {
- /*...*/ (*funcp)() /* or funcp() ... */
- }
-
- or, equivalently,=20
-
- g(int func(void))
- {
- /*...*/ func() /* or (*func)() ... */
- }
-
-
- 3.7.2 External object definitions
-
- Semantics
-
- If the declaration of an identifier for an object has file scope
- and an initializer, the declaration is an external definition for the
- identifier.
-
- A declaration of an identifier for an object that has file scope
- without an initializer, and without a storage-class specifier or with
- the storage-class specifier static , constitutes a tentative
- definition. If a translation unit contains one or more tentative
- definitions for an identifier, and the translation unit contains no
- external definition for that identifier, then the behavior is exactly
- as if the translation unit contains a file scope declaration of that
- identifier, with the composite type as of the end of the translation
- unit, with an initializer equal to 0.
-
- If the declaration of an identifier for an object is a tentative
- definition and has internal linkage, the declared type shall not be an
- incomplete type.
-
- Examples
-
- int i1 =3D 1; /* definition, external linkage */
- static int i2 =3D 2; /* definition, internal linkage */
- extern int i3 =3D 3; /* definition, external linkage */
- int i4; /* tentative definition, external linkage */
- static int i5; /* tentative definition, internal linkage */
-
- int i1; /* valid tentative definition, refers to previous */
- int i2; /* $3.1.2.2 renders undefined, linkage disagreement */
- int i3; /* valid tentative definition, refers to previous */
- int i4; /* valid tentative definition, refers to previous */
- int i5; /* $3.1.2.2 renders undefined, linkage disagreement */
-
-
-
- extern int i1; /* refers to previous, whose linkage is external */
- extern int i2; /* refers to previous, whose linkage is internal */
- extern int i3; /* refers to previous, whose linkage is external */
- extern int i4; /* refers to previous, whose linkage is external */
- extern int i5; /* refers to previous, whose linkage is internal */

-
- Description
-
- A preprocessing directive consists of a sequence of preprocessing
- tokens that begins with a # preprocessing token that is either the
- first character in the source file (optionally after white space
- containing no new-line characters) or that follows white space
- containing at least one new-line character, and is ended by the next
- new-line character./73/
-
- Constraints
-
- The only white-space characters that shall appear between
- preprocessing tokens within a preprocessing directive (from just after
- the introducing # preprocessing token through just before the
- terminating new-line character) are space and horizontal-tab
- (including spaces that have replaced comments in translation phase 3).
-
- Semantics
-
- The implementation can process and skip sections of source files
- conditionally, include other source files, and replace macros. These
- capabilities are called preprocessing , because conceptually they
- occur before translation of the resulting translation unit.
-
- The preprocessing tokens within a preprocessing directive are not
- subject to macro expansion unless otherwise stated.
-
-
- 3.8.1 Conditional inclusion
-
- Constraints
-
- The expression that controls conditional inclusion shall be an
- integral constant expression except that: it shall not contain a cast;
- identifiers (including those lexically identical to keywords) are
- interpreted as described below;/74/ and it may contain unary operator
- expressions of the form
-
- defined identifier
- defined ( identifier )
-
- which evaluate to 1 if the identifier is currently defined as a macro
- name (that is, if it is predefined or if it has been the subject of a
- #define preprocessing directive without an intervening #undef
- directive with the same subject identifier), 0 if it is not.
-
- Each preprocessing token that remains after all macro replacements
- have occurred shall be in the lexical form of a token.
-
- Semantics
-
- Preprocessing directives of the forms=20
-
- # if constant-expression new-line group<opt>
- # elif constant-expression new-line group<opt>
-
- check whether the controlling constant expression evaluates to
- nonzero.
-
- Prior to evaluation, macro invocations in the list of preprocessing
- tokens that will become the controlling constant expression are
- replaced (except for those macro names modified by the defined unary
- operator), just as in normal text. If the token defined is generated
- as a result of this replacement process, the behavior is undefined.
- After all replacements are finished, the resulting preprocessing
- tokens are converted into tokens, and then all remaining identifiers
- are replaced with 0 . The resulting tokens comprise the controlling
- constant expression which is evaluated according to the rules of $3.4
- using arithmetic that has at least the ranges specified in $2.2.4.2,
- except that int and unsigned int act as if they have the same
- representation as, respectively, long and unsigned long . This
- includes interpreting character constants, which may involve
- converting escape sequences into execution character set members.
- Whether the numeric value for these character constants matches the
- value obtained when an identical character constant occurs in an
- expression (other than within a #if or #elif directive) is
- implementation-defined./75/ Also, whether a single-character character
- constant may have a negative value is implementation-defined.
-
- Preprocessing directives of the forms=20
-
- # ifdef identifier new-line group<opt>
- # ifndef identifier new-line group<opt>
-
- check whether the identifier is or is not currently defined as a macro
- name. Their conditions are equivalent to #if defined identifier and
- #if !defined identifier respectively.
-
- Each directive's condition is checked in order. If it evaluates to
- false (zero), the group that it controls is skipped: directives are
- processed only through the name that determines the directive in order
- to keep track of the level of nested conditionals; the rest of the
- directives' preprocessing tokens are ignored, as are the other
- preprocessing tokens in the group. Only the first group whose control
- condition evaluates to true (nonzero) is processed. If none of the
- conditions evaluates to true, and there is a #else directive, the
- group controlled by the #else is processed; lacking a #else directive,
- all the groups until the #endif are skipped./76/
-
- Forward references: macro replacement ($3.8.3), source file inclusion

-
-
- 3.8.2 Source file inclusion
-
- Constraints
-
- A #include directive shall identify a header or source file that
- can be processed by the implementation.
-
- Semantics
-
- A preprocessing directive of the form=20
-
- # include <h-char-sequence> new-line
-
- searches a sequence of implementation-defined places for a header
- identified uniquely by the specified sequence between the < and >
- delimiters, and causes the replacement of that directive by the entire
- contents of the header. How the places are specified or the header
- identified is implementation-defined.
-
- A preprocessing directive of the form=20
-
- # include "q-char-sequence" new-line
-
- causes the replacement of that directive by the entire contents of the
- source file identified by the specified sequence between the
- delimiters. The named source file is searched for in an
- implementation-defined manner. If this search is not supported, or if
- the search fails, the directive is reprocessed as if it read
-
- # include <h-char-sequence> new-line
-
- with the identical contained sequence (including > characters, if any)
- from the original directive.
-
- A preprocessing directive of the form=20
-
- # include pp-tokens new-line
-
- (that does not match one of the two previous forms) is permitted. The
- preprocessing tokens after include in the directive are processed just
- as in normal text. (Each identifier currently defined as a macro name
- is replaced by its replacement list of preprocessing tokens.) The
- directive resulting after all replacements shall match one of the two
- previous forms./77/ The method by which a sequence of preprocessing
- tokens between a < and a > preprocessing token pair or a pair of
- characters is combined into a single header name preprocessing token
- is implementation-defined.
-
- There shall be an implementation-defined mapping between the
- delimited sequence and the external source file name. The
- implementation shall provide unique mappings for sequences consisting
- of one or more letters (as defined in $2.2.1) followed by a period (.)=20
- and a single letter. The implementation may ignore the distinctions=20
- of alphabetical case and restrict the mapping to six significant
- characters before the period.
-
- A #include preprocessing directive may appear in a source file that
- has been read because of a #include directive in another file, up to
- an implementation-defined nesting limit (see $2.2.4.1).
-
- Examples
-
- The most common uses of #include preprocessing directives are as in
- the following:
-
- #include <stdio.h>
- #include "myprog.h"
-
-
- This example illustrates a macro-replaced #include directive:=20
-
- #if VERSION =3D=3D 1
- #define INCFILE "vers1.h"
- #elif VERSION =3D=3D 2
- #define INCFILE "vers2.h"
- /* and so on */
- #else
- #define INCFILE "versN.h"
- #endif
- /*...*/
- #include INCFILE
-
- Forward references: macro replacement ($3.8.3). =20
-
-
- 3.8.3 Macro replacement
-
- Constraints
-
- Two replacement lists are identical if and only if the
- preprocessing tokens in both have the same number, ordering, spelling,
- and white-space separation, where all white-space separations are
- considered identical.
-
- An identifier currently defined as a macro without use of lparen
- (an object-like macro) may be redefined by another #define
- preprocessing directive provided that the second definition is an
- object-like macro definition and the two replacement lists are
- identical.
-
- An identifier currently defined as a macro using lparen (a
- function-like macro) may be redefined by another #define preprocessing
- directive provided that the second definition is a function-like macro
- definition that has the same number and spelling of parameters, and
- the two replacement lists are identical.
-
- The number of arguments in an invocation of a function-like macro
- shall agree with the number of parameters in the macro definition, and
- there shall exist a ) preprocessing token that terminates the
- invocation.
-
- A parameter identifier in a function-like macro shall be uniquely
- declared within its scope.
-
- Semantics
-
- The identifier immediately following the define is called the macro
- name. Any white-space characters preceding or following the
- replacement list of preprocessing tokens are not considered part of
- the replacement list for either form of macro.
-
- If a # preprocessing token, followed by an identifier, occurs
- lexically at the point at which a preprocessing directive could begin,
- the identifier is not subject to macro replacement.
-
- A preprocessing directive of the form=20
-
- # define identifier replacement-list new-line
-
- defines an object-like macro that causes each subsequent instance of
- the macro name/78/ to be replaced by the replacement list of
- preprocessing tokens that constitute the remainder of the directive.
- The replacement list is then rescanned for more macro names as
- specified below.
-
- A preprocessing directive of the form=20
-
- # define identifier lparen identifier-list<opt> )
- replacement-list new-line
-
- defines a function-like macro with arguments, similar syntactically to
- a function call. The parameters are specified by the optional list of
- identifiers, whose scope extends from their declaration in the
- identifier list until the new-line character that terminates the
- #define preprocessing directive. Each subsequent instance of the
- function-like macro name followed by a ( as the next preprocessing
- token introduces the sequence of preprocessing tokens that is replaced
- by the replacement list in the definition (an invocation of the
- macro). The replaced sequence of preprocessing tokens is terminated
- by the matching ) preprocessing token, skipping intervening matched
- pairs of left and right parenthesis preprocessing tokens. Within the
- sequence of preprocessing tokens making up an invocation of a
- function-like macro, new-line is considered a normal white-space
- character.
-
- The sequence of preprocessing tokens bounded by the outside-most
- matching parentheses forms the list of arguments for the function-like
- macro. The individual arguments within the list are separated by
- comma preprocessing tokens, but comma preprocessing tokens bounded by
- nested parentheses do not separate arguments. If (before argument
- substitution) any argument consists of no preprocessing tokens, the
- behavior is undefined. If there are sequences of preprocessing tokens
- within the list of arguments that would otherwise act as preprocessing
- directives, the behavior is undefined.
-
-
- 3.8.3.1 Argument substitution
-
- After the arguments for the invocation of a function-like macro
- have been identified, argument substitution takes place. A parameter
- in the replacement list, unless preceded by a # or ## preprocessing
- token or followed by a ## preprocessing token (see below), is replaced
- by the corresponding argument after all macros contained therein have
- been expanded. Before being substituted, each argument's
- preprocessing tokens are completely macro replaced as if they formed
- the rest of the source file; no other preprocessing tokens are
- available.
-
-
- 3.8.3.2 The # operator
-
- Constraints
-
- Each # preprocessing token in the replacement list for a
- function-like macro shall be followed by a parameter as the next
- preprocessing token in the replacement list.
-
- Semantics
-
- If, in the replacement list, a parameter is immediately preceded by
- a # preprocessing token, both are replaced by a single character
- string literal preprocessing token that contains the spelling of the
- preprocessing token sequence for the corresponding argument. Each
- occurrence of white space between the argument's preprocessing tokens
- becomes a single space character in the character string literal.
- White space before the first preprocessing token and after the last
- preprocessing token comprising the argument is deleted. Otherwise,
- the original spelling of each preprocessing token in the argument is
- retained in the character string literal, except for special handling
- for producing the spelling of string literals and character constants:
- a \ character is inserted before each and \ character of a character
- constant or string literal (including the delimiting characters). If
- the replacement that results is not a valid character string literal,
- the behavior is undefined. The order of evaluation of # and ##
- operators is unspecified.
-
-
- 3.8.3.3 The ## operator
-
- Constraints
-
- A ## preprocessing token shall not occur at the beginning or at the
- end of a replacement list for either form of macro definition.
-
- Semantics
-
- If, in the replacement list, a parameter is immediately preceded or
- followed by a ## preprocessing token, the parameter is replaced by the
- corresponding argument's preprocessing token sequence.
-
- For both object-like and function-like macro invocations, before
- the replacement list is reexamined for more macro names to replace,
- each instance of a ## preprocessing token in the replacement list (not
- from an argument) is deleted and the preceding preprocessing token is
- concatenated with the following preprocessing token. If the result is
- not a valid preprocessing token, the behavior is undefined. The
- resulting token is available for further macro replacement. The order
- of evaluation of ## operators is unspecified.
-
-
- 3.8.3.4 Rescanning and further replacement
-
- After all parameters in the replacement list have been substituted,
- the resulting preprocessing token sequence is rescanned with the rest
- of the source file's preprocessing tokens for more macro names to
- replace.
-
- If the name of the macro being replaced is found during this scan
- of the replacement list (not including the rest of the source file's
- preprocessing tokens), it is not replaced. Further, if any nested
- replacements encounter the name of the macro being replaced, it is not
- replaced. These nonreplaced macro name preprocessing tokens are no
- longer available for further replacement even if they are later
- (re)examined in contexts in which that macro name preprocessing token
- would otherwise have been replaced.
-
- The resulting completely macro-replaced preprocessing token
- sequence is not processed as a preprocessing directive even if it
- resembles one.
-
-
- 3.8.3.5 Scope of macro definitions
-
- A macro definition lasts (independent of block structure) until a
- corresponding #undef directive is encountered or (if none is
- encountered) until the end of the translation unit.
-
- A preprocessing directive of the form=20
-
- # undef identifier new-line
-
- causes the specified identifier no longer to be defined as a macro
- name. It is ignored if the specified identifier is not currently
- defined as a macro name.
-
- Examples
-
- The simplest use of this facility is to define a ``manifest
- constant,'' as in
-
- #define TABSIZE 100
-
- int table[TABSIZE];
-
- The following defines a function-like macro whose value is the
- maximum of its arguments. It has the advantages of working for any
- compatible types of the arguments and of generating in-line code
- without the overhead of function calling. It has the disadvantages of
- evaluating one or the other of its arguments a second time (including
- side effects) and of generating more code than a function if invoked
- several times.
-
- #define max(a, b) ((a) > (b) ? (a) : (b))
-
- The parentheses ensure that the arguments and the resulting expression
- are bound properly.
-
- To illustrate the rules for redefinition and reexamination, the
- sequence
-
- #define x 3
- #define f(a) f(x * (a))
- #undef x
- #define x 2
- #define g f
- #define z z[0]
- #define h g(~
- #define m(a) a(w)
- #define w 0,1
- #define t(a) a
-
- f(y+1) + f(f(z)) % t(t(g)(0) + t)(1);
- g(x+(3,4)-w) | h 5) & m
- (f)^m(m);
-
- results in=20
-
- f(2 * (y+1)) + f(2 * (f(2 * (z[0])))) % f(2 * (0)) + t(1);
- f(2 * (2+(3,4)-0,1)) | f(2 * (~ 5)) & f(2 * (0,1))^m(0,1);
-
-
- To illustrate the rules for creating character string literals and
- concatenating tokens, the sequence
-
- #define str(s) # s
- #define xstr(s) str(s)
- #define debug(s, t) printf("x" # s "=3D %d, x" # t "=3D %s", \
- x ## s, x ## t)
- #define INCFILE(n) vers ## n /* from previous #include example */
- #define glue(a, b) a ## b
- #define xglue(a, b) glue(a, b)
- #define HIGHLOW "hello"
- #define LOW LOW ", world"
-
- debug(1, 2);
- fputs(str(strncmp("abc\0d", "abc", '\4') /* this goes away */
- =3D=3D 0) str(: @\n), s);
- #include xstr(INCFILE(2).h)
- glue(HIGH, LOW);
- xglue(HIGH, LOW)
-
- results in=20
-
- printf("x" "1" "=3D %d, x" "2" "=3D %s", x1, x2);
- fputs("strncmp(\"abc\\0d\", \"abc\", '\\4') =3D=3D 0" ": @\n", s);
- #include "vers2.h" (after macro replacement, before file access)
- "hello";
- "hello" ", world"
-
- or, after concatenation of the character string literals,=20
-
- printf("x1=3D %d, x2=3D %s", x1, x2);
- fputs("strncmp(\"abc\\0d\", \"abc\", '\\4') =3D=3D 0: @\n", s);
- #include "vers2.h" (after macro replacement, before file access)
- "hello";
- "hello, world"
-
- Space around the # and ## tokens in the macro definition is optional.
-
- And finally, to demonstrate the redefinition rules, the following
- sequence is valid.
-
- #define OBJ_LIKE (1-1)
- #define OBJ_LIKE /* white space */ (1-1) /* other */
- #define FTN_LIKE(a) ( a )
- #define FTN_LIKE( a )( /* note the white space */ \
- a /* other stuff on this line
- */ )
-
- But the following redefinitions are invalid:=20
-
- #define OBJ_LIKE (0) /* different token sequence */
- #define OBJ_LIKE (1 - 1) /* different white space */
- #define FTN_LIKE(b) ( a ) /* different parameter usage */
- #define FTN_LIKE(b) ( b ) /* different parameter spelling */
-
-
- 3.8.4 Line control
-
- Constraints
-
- The string literal of a #line directive, if present, shall be a
- character string literal.
-
- Semantics
-
- The line number of the current source line is one greater than the
- number of new-line characters read or introduced in translation phase
- 1 ($2.1.1.2) while processing the source file to the current token.
-
- A preprocessing directive of the form=20
-
- # line digit-sequence new-line
-
- causes the implementation to behave as if the following sequence of
- source lines begins with a source line that has a line number as
- specified by the digit sequence (interpreted as a decimal integer).
-
- A preprocessing directive of the form=20
-
- # line digit-sequence " s-char-sequence<opt>" new-line
-
- sets the line number similarly and changes the presumed name of the
- source file to be the contents of the character string literal.
-
- A preprocessing directive of the form=20
-
- # line pp-tokens new-line
-
- (that does not match one of the two previous forms) is permitted. The
- preprocessing tokens after line on the directive are processed just as
- in normal text (each identifier currently defined as a macro name is
- replaced by its replacement list of preprocessing tokens). The
- directive resulting after all replacements shall match one of the two
- previous forms and is then processed as appropriate.
-
-
- 3.8.5 Error directive
-
- Semantics
-
- A preprocessing directive of the form=20
-
- # error pp-tokens<opt> new-line
-
- causes the implementation to produce a diagnostic message that
- includes the specified sequence of preprocessing tokens.
-
-
- 3.8.6 Pragma directive
-
- Semantics
-
- A preprocessing directive of the form=20
-
- # pragma pp-tokens<opt> new-line
-
- causes the implementation to behave in an implementation-defined
- manner. Any pragma that is not recognized by the implementation is
- ignored.
-
-
- 3.8.7 Null directive
-
- Semantics
-
- A preprocessing directive of the form=20
-
- # new-line
-
- has no effect. =20
-
-
- 3.8.8 Predefined macro names
-
- The following macro names shall be defined by the implementation:
- The line number of the current source line (a decimal constant). The
- presumed name of the source file (a character string literal). The
- date of translation of the source file (a character string literal of
- the form Mmm dd yyyy , where the names of the months are the same as
- those generated by the asctime function, and the first character of dd
- is a space character if the value is less than 10). If the date of
- translation is not available, an implementation-defined valid date
- shall be supplied. The time of translation of the source file (a
- character string literal of the form hh:mm:ss as in the time generated
- by the asctime function). If the time of translation is not
- available, an implementation-defined valid time shall be supplied.
- the decimal constant 1./79/
-
- The values of the predefined macros (except for __LINE__ and
- __FILE__ ) remain constant throughout the translation unit.
-
- None of these macro names, nor the identifier defined , shall be
- the subject of a #define or a #undef preprocessing directive. All
- predefined macro names shall begin with a leading underscore followed
- by an upper-case letter or a second underscore.
-
- Forward references: the asctime function ($4.12.3.1). =20
-
-
- 3.9 FUTURE LANGUAGE DIRECTIONS
-
-
- 3.9.1 External names
-
- Restriction of the significance of an external name to fewer than
- 31 characters or to only one case is an obsolescent feature that is a
- concession to existing implementations.
-
-
- 3.9.2 Character escape sequences
-
- Lower-case letters as escape sequences are reserved for future
- standardization. Other characters may be used in extensions.
-
-
- 3.9.3 Storage-class specifiers
-
- The placement of a storage-class specifier other than at the
- beginning of the declaration specifiers in a declaration is an
- obsolescent feature.
-
-
- 3.9.4 Function declarators
-
- The use of function declarators with empty parentheses (not
- prototype-format parameter type declarators) is an obsolescent
- feature.
-
-
- 3.9.5 Function definitions
-
- The use of function definitions with separate parameter identifier
- and declaration lists (not prototype-format parameter type and
- identifier declarators) is an obsolescent feature.

- 4. LIBRARY
-
- 4.1 INTRODUCTION
-
- 4.1.1 Definitions of terms
-
- A string is a contiguous sequence of characters terminated by and
- including the first null character. It is represented by a pointer to
- its initial (lowest addressed) character and its length is the number
- of characters preceding the null character.
-
- A letter is a printing character in the execution character set
- corresponding to any of the 52 required lower-case and upper-case
- letters in the source character set, listed in $2.2.1.
-
- The decimal-point character is the character used by functions that
- convert floating-point numbers to or from character sequences to
- denote the beginning of the fractional part of such character
- sequences./80/ It is represented in the text and examples by a period,
- but may be changed by the setlocale function.
-
- Forward references: character handling ($4.3), the setlocale function
- ($4.4.1.1).
-
-
- 4.1.2 Standard headers
-
- Each library function is declared in a header, /81/ whose contents
- are made available by the #include preprocessing directive. The
- header declares a set of related functions, plus any necessary types
- and additional macros needed to facilitate their use. Each header
- declares and defines only those identifiers listed in its associated
- section. All external identifiers declared in any of the headers are
- reserved, whether or not the associated header is included. All
- external identifiers that begin with an underscore are reserved. All
- other identifiers that begin with an underscore and either an
- upper-case letter or another underscore are reserved. If the program
- defines an external identifier with the same name as a reserved
- external identifier, even in a semantically equivalent form, the
- behavior is undefined./82/
-
- The standard headers are=20
-
- <assert.h> <locale.h> =
- <stddef.h>
- <ctype.h> <math.h> =
- <stdio.h>
- <errno.h> <setjmp.h> =
- <stdlib.h>
- <float.h> <signal.h> =
- <string.h>
- <limits.h> <stdarg.h> =
- <time.h>
-
-
- If a file with the same name as one of the above < and > delimited
- sequences, not provided as part of the implementation, is placed in
- any of the standard places for a source file to be included, the
- behavior is undefined.
-
- Headers may be included in any order; each may be included more
- than once in a given scope, with no effect different from being
- included only once, except that the effect of including <assert.h>
- depends on the definition of NDEBUG . If used, a header shall be
- included outside of any external declaration or definition, and it
- shall first be included before the first reference to any of the
- functions or objects it declares, or to any of the types or macros it
- defines. Furthermore, the program shall not have any macros with
- names lexically identical to keywords currently defined prior to the
- inclusion.
-
- Forward references: diagnostics ($4.2). =20
-
-
- 4.1.3 Errors <errno.h>
-
- The header <errno.h> defines several macros, all relating to the
- reporting of error conditions.
-
- The macros are=20
-
- EDOM
- ERANGE
-
- which expand to distinct nonzero integral constant expressions; and=20
-
- errno
-
- which expands to a modifiable lvalue/83/ that has type int , the value
- of which is set to a positive error number by several library
- functions. It is unspecified whether errno is a macro or an
- identifier declared with external linkage. If a macro definition is
- suppressed in order to access an actual object, or a program defines
- an external identifier with the name errno , the behavior is
- undefined.
-
- The value of errno is zero at program startup, but is never set to
- zero by any library function./84/ The value of errno may be set to
- nonzero by a library function call whether or not there is an error,
- provided the use of errno is not documented in the description of the
- function in the Standard.
-
- Additional macro definitions, beginning with E and a digit or E and
- an upper-case letter,/85/ may also be specified by the implementation.
-
-
- 4.1.4 Limits <float.h> and <limits.h>
-
- The headers <float.h> and <limits.h> define several macros t=
- hat
- expand to various limits and parameters.
-
- The macros, their meanings, and their minimum magnitudes are listed
- in $2.2.4.2.
-
-
- 4.1.5 Common definitions <stddef.h>
-
- The following types and macros are defined in the standard header
- <stddef.h> . Some are also defined in other headers, as noted in
- their respective sections.
-
- The types are=20
-
- ptrdiff_t
-
- which is the signed integral type of the result of subtracting two
- pointers;
-
- size_t
-
- which is the unsigned integral type of the result of the sizeof
- operator; and
-
- wchar_t
-
- which is an integral type whose range of values can represent distinct
- codes for all members of the largest extended character set specified
- among the supported locales; the null character shall have the code
- value zero and each member of the basic character set defined in
- $2.2.1 shall have a code value equal to its value when used as the
- lone character in an integer character constant.
-
- The macros are=20
-
- NULL
-
- which expands to an implementation-defined null pointer constant; and=20
-
- offsetof( type, member-designator)
-
- which expands to an integral constant expression that has type size_t,=20
- the value of which is the offset in bytes, to the structure member
- (designated by member-designator ), from the beginning of its
- structure (designated by type ). The member-designator shall be such
- that given
-
- static type t;
-
- then the expression &(t. member-designator ) evaluates to an address
- constant. (If the specified member is a bit-field, the behavior is
- undefined.)
-
- Forward references: localization ($4.4). =20
-
-
- 4.1.6 Use of library functions
-
- Each of the following statements applies unless explicitly stated
- otherwise in the detailed descriptions that follow. If an argument to
- a function has an invalid value (such as a value outside the domain of
- the function, or a pointer outside the address space of the program,
- or a null pointer), the behavior is undefined. Any function declared
- in a header may be implemented as a macro defined in the header, so a
- library function should not be declared explicitly if its header is
- included. Any macro definition of a function can be suppressed
- locally by enclosing the name of the function in parentheses, because
- the name is then not followed by the left parenthesis that indicates
- expansion of a macro function name. For the same syntactic reason, it
- is permitted to take the address of a library function even if it is
- also defined as a macro./86/ The use of #undef to remove any macro
- definition will also ensure that an actual function is referred to.
- Any invocation of a library function that is implemented as a macro
- will expand to code that evaluates each of its arguments exactly once,
- fully protected by parentheses where necessary, so it is generally
- safe to use arbitrary expressions as arguments. Likewise, those
- function-like macros described in the following sections may be
- invoked in an expression anywhere a function with a compatible return
- type could be called./87/
-
- Provided that a library function can be declared without reference
- to any type defined in a header, it is also permissible to declare the
- function, either explicitly or implicitly, and use it without
- including its associated header. If a function that accepts a
- variable number of arguments is not declared (explicitly or by
- including its associated header), the behavior is undefined.
-
- Examples
-
- The function atoi may be used in any of several ways:=20
-
- * by use of its associated header (possibly generating a macro expansion)=
- =20
-
- #include <stdlib.h>
- const char *str;
- /*...*/
- i =3D atoi(str);
-
-
-
- * by use of its associated header (assuredly generating a true
- function reference)
-
- #include <stdlib.h>
- #undef atoi
- const char *str;
- /*...*/
- i =3D atoi(str);
-
- or=20
-
- #include <stdlib.h>
- const char *str;
- /*...*/
- i =3D (atoi)(str);
-
- * by explicit declaration=20
-
- extern int atoi(const char *);
- const char *str;
- /*...*/
- i =3D atoi(str);
-
- * by implicit declaration=20
-
- const char *str;
- /*...*/
- i =3D atoi(str);
-
-
- 4.2 DIAGNOSTICS <assert.h>
-
- The header <assert.h> defines the assert macro and refers to
- another macro,
-
- NDEBUG
-
- which is not defined by <assert.h> . If NDEBUG is defined as a macro
- name at the point in the source file where <assert.h> is included, th=
- e
- assert macro is defined simply as
-
- #define assert(ignore) ((void)0)
-
- The assert macro shall be implemented as a macro, not as an actual
- function. If the macro definition is suppressed in order to access an
- actual function, the behavior is undefined.
-
-
- 4.2.1 Program diagnostics
-
- 4.2.1.1 The assert macro
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <assert.h>
- void assert(int expression);
-
- Description
-
- The assert macro puts diagnostics into programs. When it is
- executed, if expression is false (that is, compares equal to 0), the
- assert macro writes information about the particular call that failed
- (including the text of the argument, the name of the source file, and
- the source line number EM the latter are respectively the values of
- the preprocessing macros __FILE__ and __LINE__ ) on the standard error
- file in an implementation-defined format./88/
- expression , xyz , nnn It then calls the abort function. =20
-
- Returns
-
- The assert macro returns no value. =20
-
- Forward references: the abort function ($4.10.4.1). =20
-
-
- 4.3 CHARACTER HANDLING <ctype.h>
-
- The header <ctype.h> declares several functions useful for testing
- and mapping characters./89/ In all cases the argument is an int , the
- value of which shall be representable as an unsigned char or shall
- equal the value of the macro EOF . If the argument has any other
- value, the behavior is undefined.
-
- The behavior of these functions is affected by the current locale.
- Those functions that have no implementation-defined aspects in the C
- locale are noted below.
-
- The term printing character refers to a member of an
- implementation-defined set of characters, each of which occupies one
- printing position on a display device; the term control character
- refers to a member of an implementation-defined set of characters that
- are not printing characters./90/
-
- Forward references: EOF ($4.9.1), localization ($4.4). =20

-
- Description
-
- The toupper function converts a lower-case letter to the corresponding u=
- pper-case letter. =20
-
- Returns
-
- If the argument is a lower-case letter, the toupper function

-
- 4.4.1 Locale control
-
- 4.4.1.1 The setlocale function
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <locale.h>
- char *setlocale(int category, const char *locale);
-
- Description
-
- The setlocale function selects the appropriate portion of the
- program's locale as specified by the category and locale arguments.
- The setlocale function may be used to change or query the program's
- entire current locale or portions thereof. The value LC_ALL for
- category names the program's entire locale; the other values for
- category name only a portion of the program's locale. LC_COLLATE
- affects the behavior of the strcoll and strxfrm functions. LC_CTYPE
- affects the behavior of the character handling functions/92/ and the
- multibyte functions. LC_MONETARY affects the monetary formatting
- information returned by the localeconv function. LC_NUMERIC affects
- the decimal-point character for the formatted input/output functions
- and the string conversion functions, as well as the non-monetary
- formatting information returned by the localeconv function. LC_TIME
- affects the behavior of the strftime function.
-
- A value of "C" for locale specifies the minimal environment for C
- translation; a value of "" for locale specifies the implementation-defined
- native environment. Other implementation-defined strings may be passed
- as the second argument to setlocale .
-
- At program startup, the equivalent of=20
-
- setlocale(LC_ALL, "C");
-
- is executed.
-
- The implementation shall behave as if no library function calls the
- setlocale function.
-
- Returns
-
- If a pointer to a string is given for locale and the selection can
- be honored, the setlocale function returns the string associated with
- the specified category for the new locale. If the selection cannot be
- honored, the setlocale function returns a null pointer and the
- program's locale is not changed.
-
- A null pointer for locale causes the setlocale function to return
- the string associated with the category for the program's current
- locale; the program's locale is not changed.
-
- The string returned by the setlocale function is such that a
- subsequent call with that string and its associated category will
- restore that part of the program's locale. The string returned shall
- not be modified by the program, but may be overwritten by a subsequent
- call to the setlocale function.

- 4.4.2 Numeric formatting convention inquiry
-
- 4.4.2.1 The localeconv function
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <locale.h>
- struct lconv *localeconv(void);
-
- Description
-
- The localeconv function sets the components of an object with type
- struct lconv with values appropriate for the formatting of numeric
- quantities (monetary and otherwise) according to the rules of the
- current locale.
-
- The members of the structure with type char * are strings, any of
- which (except decimal_point ) can point to , to indicate that the
- value is not available in the current locale or is of zero length.
- The members with type char are nonnegative numbers, any of which can
- be CHAR_MAX to indicate that the value is not available in the current
- locale. The members include the following: The decimal-point
- character used to format non-monetary quantities. The character used
- to separate groups of digits to the left of the decimal-point
- character in formatted non-monetary quantities. A string whose
- elements indicate the size of each group of digits in formatted
- non-monetary quantities. The international currency symbol applicable
- to the current locale. The first three characters contain the
- alphabetic international currency symbol in accordance with those
- specified in ISO 4217 Codes for the Representation of Currency and
- Funds .The fourth character (immediately preceding the null character)
- is the character used to separate the international currency symbol
- from the monetary quantity. The local currency symbol applicable to
- the current locale. The decimal-point used to format monetary
- quantities. The separator for groups of digits to the left of the
- decimal-point in formatted monetary quantities. A string whose
- elements indicate the size of each group of digits in formatted
- monetary quantities. The string used to indicate a nonnegative-valued
- formatted monetary quantity. The string used to indicate a
- negative-valued formatted monetary quantity. The number of fractional
- digits (those to the right of the decimal-point) to be displayed in a
- internationally formatted monetary quantity. The number of fractional
- digits (those to the right of the decimal-point) to be displayed in a
- formatted monetary quantity. Set to 1 or 0 if the currency_symbol
- respectively precedes or succeeds the value for a nonnegative
- formatted monetary quantity. Set to 1 or 0 if the currency_symbol
- respectively is or is not separated by a space from the value for a
- nonnegative formatted monetary quantity. Set to 1 or 0 if the
- currency_symbol respectively precedes or succeeds the value for a
- negative formatted monetary quantity. Set to 1 or 0 if the
- currency_symbol respectively is or is not separated by a space from
- the value for a negative formatted monetary quantity. Set to a value
- indicating the positioning of the positive_sign for a nonnegative
- formatted monetary quantity. Set to a value indicating the
- positioning of the negative_sign for a negative formatted monetary
- quantity.
-
- The elements of grouping and mon_grouping are interpreted according
- to the following: No further grouping is to be performed. The
- previous element is to be repeatedly used for the remainder of the
- digits. The value is the number of digits that comprise the current
- group. The next element is examined to determine the size of the next
- group of digits to the left of the current group.
-
- The value of p_sign_posn and n_sign_posn is interpreted according
- to the following: Parentheses surround the quantity and
- currency_symbol. The sign string precedes the quantity and
- currency_symbol. The sign string succeeds the quantity and
- currency_symbol. The sign string immediately precedes the
- currency_symbol. The sign string immediately succeeds the
- currency_symbol.
-
- The implementation shall behave as if no library function calls the
- localeconv function.
-
- Returns
-
- The localeconv function returns a pointer to the filled-in object.
- The structure pointed to by the return value shall not be modified by
- the program, but may be overwritten by a subsequent call to the
- localeconv function. In addition, calls to the setlocale function
- with categories LC_ALL , LC_MONETARY , or LC_NUMERIC may overwrite the
- contents of the structure.
-
- Examples
-
- The following table illustrates the rules used by four countries to
- format monetary quantities.

- 4.5 MATHEMATICS <math.h>
-
- The header <math.h> declares several mathematical functions and
- defines one macro. The functions take double-precision arguments and
- return double-precision values./93/ Integer arithmetic functions and
- conversion functions are discussed later.
-
- The macro defined is=20
-
- HUGE_VAL
-
- which expands to a positive double expression, not necessarily
- representable as a float .
-
- Forward references: integer arithmetic functions ($4.10.6), the atof
- function ($4.10.1.1), the strtod function ($4.10.1.4).
-
-
- 4.5.1 Treatment of error conditions
-
- The behavior of each of these functions is defined for all
- representable values of its input arguments. Each function shall
- execute as if it were a single operation, without generating any
- externally visible exceptions.
-
- For all functions, a domain error occurs if an input argument is
- outside the domain over which the mathematical function is defined.
- The description of each function lists any required domain errors; an
- implementation may define additional domain errors, provided that such
- errors are consistent with the mathematical definition of the
- function./94/ On a domain error, the function returns an
- implementation-defined value; the value of the macro EDOM is stored in
- errno .
-
- Similarly, a range error occurs if the result of the function
- cannot be represented as a double value. If the result overflows (the
- magnitude of the result is so large that it cannot be represented in
- an object of the specified type), the function returns the value of
- the macro HUGE_VAL , with the same sign as the correct value of the
- function; the value of the macro ERANGE is stored in errno . If the
- result underflows (the magnitude of the result is so small that it
- cannot be represented in an object of the specified type), the
- function returns zero; whether the integer expression errno acquires
- the value of the macro ERANGE is implementation-defined.

-
- The type declared is=20
-
- jmp_buf
-
- which is an array type suitable for holding the information needed to
- restore a calling environment.
-
- It is unspecified whether setjmp is a macro or an identifier
- declared with external linkage. If a macro definition is suppressed
- in order to access an actual function, or a program defines an
- external identifier with the name setjmp , the behavior is undefined.
-
-
- 4.6.1 Save calling environment
-
- 4.6.1.1 The setjmp macro
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <setjmp.h>
- int setjmp(jmp_buf env);
-
- Description
-
- The setjmp macro saves its calling environment in its jmp_buf
- argument for later use by the longjmp function.

- Returns
-
- If the return is from a direct invocation, the setjmp macro returns
- the value zero. If the return is from a call to the longjmp function,
- the setjmp macro returns a nonzero value.
-
- "Environmental constraint"
-
- An invocation of the setjmp macro shall appear only in one of the
- following contexts:
-
- * the entire controlling expression of a selection or iteration statement;=
- =20
-
- * one operand of a relational or equality operator with the other
- operand an integral constant expression, with the resulting expression
- being the entire controlling expression of a selection or iteration
- statement;
-
- * the operand of a unary ! operator with the resulting expression
- being the entire controlling expression of a selection or iteration
- statement; or
-
- * the entire expression of an expression statement (possibly cast to void)=
- . =20
-
-
- 4.6.2 Restore calling environment
-
- 4.6.2.1 The longjmp function
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <setjmp.h>
- void longjmp(jmp_buf env, int val);
-
- Description
-
- The longjmp function restores the environment saved by the most
- recent invocation of the setjmp macro in the same invocation of the
- program, with the corresponding jmp_buf argument. If there has been
- no such invocation, or if the function containing the invocation of
- the setjmp macro has terminated execution/96/ in the interim, the
- behavior is undefined.
-
- All accessible objects have values as of the time longjmp was
- called, except that the values of objects of automatic storage
- duration that do not have volatile type and have been changed between
- the setjmp invocation and longjmp call are indeterminate.
-
- As it bypasses the usual function call and return mechanisms, the
- longjmp function shall execute correctly in contexts of interrupts,
- signals and any of their associated functions. However, if the
- longjmp function is invoked from a nested signal handler (that is,
- from a function invoked as a result of a signal raised during the
- handling of another signal), the behavior is undefined.
-
- Returns
-
- After longjmp is completed, program execution continues as if the
- corresponding invocation of the setjmp macro had just returned the
- value specified by val . The longjmp function cannot cause the setjmp
- macro to return the value 0; if val is 0, the setjmp macro returns the
- value 1.
-
-
- 4.7 SIGNAL HANDLING <signal.h>
-
- The header <signal.h> declares a type and two functions and define=
- s
- several macros, for handling various signals (conditions that may be
- reported during program execution).
-
- The type defined is=20
-
- sig_atomic_t
-
- which is the integral type of an object that can be accessed as an
- atomic entity, even in the presence of asynchronous interrupts.
-
- The macros defined are=20
-
- SIG_DFL
- SIG_ERR
- SIG_IGN
-
- which expand to distinct constant expressions that have type
- compatible with the second argument to and the return value of the
- signal function, and whose value compares unequal to the address of
- any declarable function; and the following, each of which expands to a
- positive integral constant expression that is the signal number
- corresponding to the specified condition:
-
- SIGABRT abnormal termination, such as is initiated by the abort function
-
- SIGFPE an erroneous arithmetic operation, such as zero divide or an
- operation resulting in overflow
-
- SIGILL detection of an invalid function image, such as an illegal=20
- instruction
-
- SIGINT receipt of an interactive attention signal=20
-
- SIGSEGV an invalid access to storage=20
-
- SIGTERM a termination request sent to the program
-
- An implementation need not generate any of these signals, except as
- a result of explicit calls to the raise function. Additional signals
- and pointers to undeclarable functions, with macro definitions
- beginning, respectively, with the letters SIG and an upper-case letter
- or with SIG_ and an upper-case letter,/97/ may also be specified by
- the implementation. The complete set of signals, their semantics, and
- their default handling is implementation-defined; all signal values
- shall be positive.
-
-
- 4.7.1 Specify signal handling
-
- 4.7.1.1 The signal function
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <signal.h>
- void (*signal(int sig, void (*func)(int)))(int);
-
- Description
-
- The signal function chooses one of three ways in which receipt of
- the signal number sig is to be subsequently handled. If the value of
- func is SIG_DFL , default handling for that signal will occur. If the
- value of func is SIG_IGN , the signal will be ignored. Otherwise,
- func shall point to a function to be called when that signal occurs.
- Such a function is called a signal handler .
-
- When a signal occurs, if func points to a function, first the
- equivalent of signal(sig, SIG_DFL); is executed or an
- implementation-defined blocking of the signal is performed. (If the
- value of sig is SIGILL, whether the reset to SIG_DFL occurs is
- implementation-defined.) Next the equivalent of (*func)(sig); is
- executed. The function func may terminate by executing a return
- statement or by calling the abort , exit , or longjmp function. If
- func executes a return statement and the value of sig was SIGFPE or
- any other implementation-defined value corresponding to a
- computational exception, the behavior is undefined. Otherwise, the
- program will resume execution at the point it was interrupted.
-
- If the signal occurs other than as the result of calling the abort
- or raise function, the behavior is undefined if the signal handler
- calls any function in the standard library other than the signal
- function itself or refers to any object with static storage duration
- other than by assigning a value to a static storage duration variable
- of type volatile sig_atomic_t . Furthermore, if such a call to the
- signal function results in a SIG_ERR return, the value of errno is
- indeterminate.
-
- At program startup, the equivalent of=20
-
- signal(sig, SIG_IGN);
-
- may be executed for some signals selected in an implementation-defined
- manner; the equivalent of
-
- signal(sig, SIG_DFL);
-
- is executed for all other signals defined by the implementation.
-
- The implementation shall behave as if no library function calls the
- signal function.
-
- Returns
-
- If the request can be honored, the signal function returns the
- value of func for the most recent call to signal for the specified
- signal sig . Otherwise, a value of SIG_ERR is returned and a positive
- value is stored in errno .

- 4.7.2.1 The raise function
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <signal.h>
- int raise(int sig);

- Description
-
- The raise function sends the signal sig to the executing program. =20
-
- Returns
-
- The raise function returns zero if successful, nonzero if unsuccessful. =

-
- 4.8 VARIABLE ARGUMENTS <stdarg.h>
-
- The header <stdarg.h> declares a type and defines three macros, fo=
- r
- advancing through a list of arguments whose number and types are not
- known to the called function when it is translated.
-
- A function may be called with a variable number of arguments of
- varying types. As described in $3.7.1, its parameter list contains
- one or more parameters. The rightmost parameter plays a special role
- in the access mechanism, and will be designated parmN in this
- description.
-
- The type declared is=20
-
- va_list
-
- which is a type suitable for holding information needed by the macros
- va_start , va_arg , and va_end . If access to the varying arguments
- is desired, the called function shall declare an object (referred to
- as ap in this section) having type va_list . The object ap may be
- passed as an argument to another function; if that function invokes
- the va_arg macro with parameter ap , the value of ap in the calling
- function is indeterminate and shall be passed to the va_end macro
- prior to any further reference to ap .
-
-
- 4.8.1 Variable argument list access macros
-
- The va_start and va_arg macros described in this section shall be
- implemented as macros, not as actual functions. It is unspecified
- whether va_end is a macro or an identifier declared with external
- linkage. If a macro definition is suppressed in order to access an
- actual function, or a program defines an external identifier with the
- name va_end , the behavior is undefined. The va_start and va_end
- macros shall be invoked in the function accepting a varying number of
- arguments, if access to the varying arguments is desired.
-
-
- 4.8.1.1 The va_start macro
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <stdarg.h>
- void va_start(va_list ap, parmN);
-
- Description
-
- The va_start macro shall be invoked before any access to the
- unnamed arguments.
-
- The va_start macro initializes ap for subsequent use by va_arg and
- va_end .
-
- The parameter parmN is the identifier of the rightmost parameter in
- the variable parameter list in the function definition (the one just
- before the , ... ). If the parameter parmN is declared with the
- register storage class, with a function or array type, or with a type
- that is not compatible with the type that results after application of
- the default argument promotions, the behavior is undefined.
-
- Returns
-
- The va_start macro returns no value. =20
-
-
- 4.8.1.2 The va_arg macro
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <stdarg.h>
- type va_arg(va_list ap, type);
-
- Description
-
- The va_arg macro expands to an expression that has the type and
- value of the next argument in the call. The parameter ap shall be the
- same as the va_list ap initialized by va_start . Each invocation of
- va_arg modifies ap so that the values of successive arguments are
- returned in turn. The parameter type is a type name specified such
- that the type of a pointer to an object that has the specified type
- can be obtained simply by postfixing a * to type . If there is no
- actual next argument, or if type is not compatible with the type of
- the actual next argument (as promoted according to the default
- argument promotions), the behavior is undefined.
-
- Returns
-
- The first invocation of the va_arg macro after that of the va_start
- macro returns the value of the argument after that specified by parmN.
- Successive invocations return the values of the remaining arguments
- in succession.
-
-
- 4.8.1.3 The va_end macro
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <stdarg.h>
- void va_end(va_list ap);
-
- Description
-
- The va_end macro facilitates a normal return from the function
- whose variable argument list was referred to by the expansion of
- va_start that initialized the va_list ap . The va_end macro may
- modify ap so that it is no longer usable (without an intervening
- invocation of va_start ). If there is no corresponding invocation of
- the va_start macro, or if the va_end macro is not invoked before the
- return, the behavior is undefined.
-
- Returns
-
- The va_end macro returns no value. =20
-
- Example
-
- The function f1 gathers into an array a list of arguments that are
- pointers to strings (but not more than MAXARGS arguments), then passes
- the array as a single argument to function f2 . The number of
- pointers is specified by the first argument to f1 .
-
- #include <stdarg.h>
- #define MAXARGS 31
-
- void f1(int n_ptrs, ...)
- {
- va_list ap;
- char *array[MAXARGS];
- int ptr_no =3D 0;
-
- if (n_ptrs > MAXARGS)
- n_ptrs =3D MAXARGS;
- va_start(ap, n_ptrs);
- while (ptr_no < n_ptrs)
- array[ptr_no++] =3D va_arg(ap, char *);
- va_end(ap);
- f2(n_ptrs, array);
- }
-
- Each call to f1 shall have visible the definition of the function or a
- declaration such as
-
- void f1(int, ...);
-
-
- 4.9 INPUT/OUTPUT <stdio.h>
-
- 4.9.1 Introduction
-
- The header <stdio.h> declares three types, several macros, and man=
- y
- functions for performing input and output.
-
- The types declared are size_t (described in $4.1.5);=20
-
- FILE
-
- which is an object type capable of recording all the information
- needed to control a stream, including its file position indicator, a
- pointer to its associated buffer, an error indicator that records
- whether a read/write error has occurred, and an end-of-file indicator
- that records whether the end of the file has been reached; and
-
- fpos_t
-
- which is an object type capable of recording all the information
- needed to specify uniquely every position within a file.
-
- The macros are NULL (described in $4.1.5);=20
-
- _IOFBF
- _IOLBF
- _IONBF
-
- which expand to distinct integral constant expressions, suitable for
- use as the third argument to the setvbuf function;
-
- BUFSIZ
-
- which expands to an integral constant expression, which is the size of
- the buffer used by the setbuf function;
-
- EOF
-
- which expands to a negative integral constant expression that is
- returned by several functions to indicate end-of-file ,that is, no
- more input from a stream;
-
- FOPEN_MAX
-
- which expands to an integral constant expression that is the minimum
- number of files that the implementation guarantees can be open
- simultaneously;
-
- FILENAME_MAX
-
- which expands to an integral constant expression that is the maximum
- length for a file name string that the implementation guarantees can
- be opened;/98/
-
- L_tmpnam
-
- which expands to an integral constant expression that is the size of
- an array of char large enough to hold a temporary file name string
- generated by the tmpnam function;
-
- SEEK_CUR
- SEEK_END
- SEEK_SET
-
- which expand to distinct integral constant expressions, suitable for
- use as the third argument to the fseek function;
-
- TMP_MAX
-
- which expands to an integral constant expression that is the minimum
- number of unique file names that shall be generated by the tmpnam
- function;
-
- stderr
- stdin=20
- stdout
-
- which are expressions of type ``pointer to FILE '' that point to the
- FILE objects associated, respectively, with the standard error, input,
- and output streams.
-
- Forward references: files ($4.9.3), the fseek function ($4.9.9.2),
- streams ($4.9.2), the tmpnam function ($4.9.4.4).
-
-
- 4.9.2 Streams
-
- Input and output, whether to or from physical devices such as
- terminals and tape drives, or whether to or from files supported on
- structured storage devices, are mapped into logical data streams
- ,whose properties are more uniform than their various inputs and
- outputs. Two forms of mapping are supported, for text streams and for
- binary streams ./99/
-
- A text stream is an ordered sequence of characters composed into
- lines , each line consisting of zero or more characters plus a
- terminating new-line character. Whether the last line requires a
- terminating new-line character is implementation-defined. Characters
- may have to be added, altered, or deleted on input and output to
- conform to differing conventions for representing text in the host
- environment. Thus, there need not be a one-to-one correspondence
- between the characters in a stream and those in the external
- representation. Data read in from a text stream will necessarily
- compare equal to the data that were earlier written out to that stream
- only if: the data consist only of printable characters and the control
- characters horizontal tab and new-line; no new-line character is
- immediately preceded by space characters; and the last character is a
- new-line character. Whether space characters that are written out
- immediately before a new-line character appear when read in is
- implementation-defined.
-
- A binary stream is an ordered sequence of characters that can
- transparently record internal data. Data read in from a binary stream
- shall compare equal to the data that were earlier written out to that
- stream, under the same implementation. Such a stream may, however,
- have an implementation-defined number of null characters appended.
-
- "Environmental limits"
-
- An implementation shall support text files with lines containing at
- least 254 characters, including the terminating new-line character.
- The value of the macro BUFSIZ shall be at least 256.
-
-
- 4.9.3 Files
-
- A stream is associated with an external file (which may be a
- physical device) by opening a file, which may involve creating a new
- file. Creating an existing file causes its former contents to be
- discarded, if necessary, so that it appears as if newly created. If a
- file can support positioning requests (such as a disk file, as opposed
- to a terminal), then a file position indicator /100/ associated with
- the stream is positioned at the start (character number zero) of the
- file, unless the file is opened with append mode in which case it is
- implementation-defined whether the file position indicator is
- positioned at the beginning or the end of the file. The file position
- indicator is maintained by subsequent reads, writes, and positioning
- requests, to facilitate an orderly progression through the file. All
- input takes place as if characters were read by successive calls to the
- fgetc function; all output takes place as if characters were written by
- successive calls to the fputc function.
-
- Binary files are not truncated, except as defined in $4.9.5.3.
- Whether a write on a text stream causes the associated file to be
- truncated beyond that point is implementation-defined.
-
- When a stream is unbuffered, characters are intended to appear
- from the source or at the destination as soon as possible. Otherwise
- characters may be accumulated and transmitted to or from the host
- environment as a block. When a stream is fully buffered, characters
- are intended to be transmitted to or from the host environment as a
- block when a buffer is filled. When a stream is line buffered,
- characters are intended to be transmitted to or from the host
- environment as a block when a new-line character is encountered.
- Furthermore, characters are intended to be transmitted as a block to
- the host environment when a buffer is filled, when input is requested
- on an unbuffered stream, or when input is requested on a line buffered
- stream that requires the transmission of characters from the host
- environment. Support for these characteristics is
- implementation-defined, and may be affected via the setbuf and setvbuf
- functions.
-
- A file may be disassociated from its controlling stream by closing
- the file. Output streams are flushed (any unwritten buffer contents
- are transmitted to the host environment) before the stream is
- disassociated from the file. The value of a pointer to a FILE object
- is indeterminate after the associated file is closed (including the
- standard text streams). Whether a file of zero length (on which no
- characters have been written by an output stream) actually exists is
- implementation-defined.
-
- The file may be subsequently reopened, by the same or another
- program execution, and its contents reclaimed or modified (if it can
- be repositioned at its start). If the main function returns to its
- original caller, or if the exit function is called, all open files are
- closed (hence all output streams are flushed) before program
- termination. Other paths to program termination, such as calling the
- abort function, need not close all files properly.
-
- The address of the FILE object used to control a stream may be
- significant; a copy of a FILE object may not necessarily serve in
- place of the original.
-
- At program startup, three text streams are predefined and need not
- be opened explicitly --- standard input (for reading conventional
- input), standard output (for writing conventional output), and
- standard error (for writing diagnostic output). When opened, the
- standard error stream is not fully buffered; the standard input and
- standard output streams are fully buffered if and only if the stream
- can be determined not to refer to an interactive device.
-
- Functions that open additional (nontemporary) files require a file
- name, which is a string. The rules for composing valid file names are
- implementation-defined. Whether the same file can be simultaneously
- open multiple times is also implementation-defined.
-
- "Environmental limits"
-
- The value of the macro FOPEN_MAX shall be at least eight, including
- the three standard text streams.
-
- Forward references: the exit function ($4.10.4.3), the fgetc function
- ($4.9.7.1), the fopen function ($4.9.5.3), the fputc function
- ($4.9.7.3), the setbuf function ($4.9.5.5), the setvbuf function
- ($4.9.5.6).
-
-
- 4.9.4 Operations on files
-
- 4.9.4.1 The remove function
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <stdio.h>
- int remove(const char *filename);
-
- Description
-
- The remove function causes the file whose name is the string
- pointed to by filename to be no longer accessible by that name. A
- subsequent attempt to open that file using that name will fail, unless
- it is created anew. If the file is open, the behavior of the remove
- function is implementation-defined.
-
- Returns
-
- The remove function returns zero if the operation succeeds, nonzero
- if it fails.
-
-
- 4.9.4.2 The rename function
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <stdio.h>
- int rename(const char *old, const char *new);
-
- Description
-
- The rename function causes the file whose name is the string
- pointed to by old to be henceforth known by the name given by the
- string pointed to by new . The file named old is effectively removed.
- If a file named by the string pointed to by new exists prior to the
- call to the rename function, the behavior is implementation-defined.
-
- Returns
-
- The rename function returns zero if the operation succeeds, nonzero
- if it fails,/101/ in which case if the file existed previously it is
- still known by its original name.
-
-
- 4.9.4.3 The tmpfile function
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <stdio.h>
- FILE *tmpfile(void);
-
- Description
-
- The tmpfile function creates a temporary binary file that will
- automatically be removed when it is closed or at program termination.
- If the program terminates abnormally, whether an open temporary file
- is removed is implementation-defined. The file is opened for update
- with wb+ mode.
-
- Returns
-
- The tmpfile function returns a pointer to the stream of the file
- that it created. If the file cannot be created, the tmpfile function
- returns a null pointer.
-
- Forward references: the fopen function ($4.9.5.3). =20
-
-
- 4.9.4.4 The tmpnam function
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <stdio.h>
- char *tmpnam(char *s);
-
- Description
-
- The tmpnam function generates a string that is a valid file name
- and that is not the same as the name of an existing file./102/
-
- The tmpnam function generates a different string each time it is
- called, up to TMP_MAX times. If it is called more than TMP_MAX times,
- the behavior is implementation-defined.
-
- The implementation shall behave as if no library function calls the
- tmpnam function.
-
- Returns
-
- If the argument is a null pointer, the tmpnam function leaves its
- result in an internal static object and returns a pointer to that
- object. Subsequent calls to the tmpnam function may modify the same
- object. If the argument is not a null pointer, it is assumed to point
- to an array of at least L_tmpnam char s; the tmpnam function writes
- its result in that array and returns the argument as its value.
-
- "Environmental limits"
-
- The value of the macro TMP_MAX shall be at least 25. =20
-
-
- 4.9.5 File access functions
-
- 4.9.5.1 The fclose function
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <stdio.h>
- int fclose(FILE *stream);
-
- Description
-
- The fclose function causes the stream pointed to by stream to be
- flushed and the associated file to be closed. Any unwritten buffered
- data for the stream are delivered to the host environment to be
- written to the file; any unread buffered data are discarded. The
- stream is disassociated from the file. If the associated buffer was
- automatically allocated, it is deallocated.
-
- Returns
-
- The fclose function returns zero if the stream was successfully
- closed, or EOF if any errors were detected.
-
-
- 4.9.5.2 The fflush function
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <stdio.h>
- int fflush(FILE *stream);
-
- Description
-
- If stream points to an output stream or an update stream in which
- the most recent operation was output, the fflush function causes any
- unwritten data for that stream to be delivered to the host environment
- to be written to the file; otherwise, the behavior is undefined.
-
- If stream is a null pointer, the fflush function performs this
- flushing action on all streams for which the behavior is defined
- above.
-
- Returns
-
- The fflush function returns EOF if a write error occurs, otherwise zero.=
- =20
-
- Forward references: the ungetc function ($4.9.7.11). =20
-
-
- 4.9.5.3 The fopen function
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <stdio.h>
- FILE *fopen(const char *filename, const char *mode);
-
- Description
-
- The fopen function opens the file whose name is the string pointed
- to by filename , and associates a stream with it.
-
- The argument mode points to a string beginning with one of the
- following sequences:/103/
-
- "r" open text file for reading
- "w" truncate to zero length or create text file for writing
- "a" append; open or create text file for writing at end-of-fi=
- le
- "rb" open binary file for reading
- "wb" truncate to zero length or create binary file for writing
- "ab" append; open or create binary file for writing at end-of-=
- file
- "r+" open text file for update (reading and writing)
- "w+" truncate to zero length or create text file for update
- "a+" append; open or create text file for update, writing at
- end-of-file
- "r+b" or "rb+" open binary file for update (reading and writing)
- "w+b" or "wb+" truncate to zero length or create binary file for update
- "a+b" or "ab+" append; open or create binary file for update, writing at
- end-of-file
-
-
- Opening a file with read mode ('r' as the first character in the
- mode argument) fails if the file does not exist or cannot be read.
-
- Opening a file with append mode ('a' as the first character in the
- mode argument) causes all subsequent writes to the file to be forced
- to the then current end-of-file, regardless of intervening calls to
- the fseek function. In some implementations, opening a binary file
- with append mode ('b' as the second or third character in the mode
- argument) may initially position the file position indicator for the
- stream beyond the last data written, because of null character
- padding.
-
- When a file is opened with update mode ('+' as the second or third
- character in the mode argument), both input and output may be
- performed on the associated stream. However, output may not be
- directly followed by input without an intervening call to the fflush
- function or to a file positioning function ( fseek , fsetpos , or
- rewind ), and input may not be directly followed by output without an
- intervening call to a file positioning function, unless the input
- operation encounters end-of-file. Opening a file with update mode may
- open or create a binary stream in some implementations.
-
- When opened, a stream is fully buffered if and only if it can be
- determined not to refer to an interactive device. The error and
- end-of-file indicators for the stream are cleared.
-
- Returns
-
- The fopen function returns a pointer to the object controlling the
- stream. If the open operation fails, fopen returns a null pointer.
-
- Forward references: file positioning functions ($4.9.9). =20
-
-
- 4.9.5.4 The freopen function
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <stdio.h>
- FILE *freopen(const char *filename, const char *mode,
- FILE *stream);
-
- Description
-
- The freopen function opens the file whose name is the string
- pointed to by filename and associates the stream pointed to by stream
- with it. The mode argument is used just as in the fopen
- function./104/
-
- The freopen function first attempts to close any file that is
- associated with the specified stream. Failure to close the file
- successfully is ignored. The error and end-of-file indicators for the
- stream are cleared.
-
- Returns
-
- The freopen function returns a null pointer if the open operation
- fails. Otherwise, freopen returns the value of stream .
-
-
- 4.9.5.5 The setbuf function
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <stdio.h>
- void setbuf(FILE *stream, char *buf);
-
- Description
-
- Except that it returns no value, the setbuf function is equivalent
- to the setvbuf function invoked with the values _IOFBF for mode and
- BUFSIZ for size , or (if buf is a null pointer), with the value _IONBF
- for mode .
-
- Returns
-
- The setbuf function returns no value. =20
-
- Forward references: the setvbuf function ($4.9.5.6). =20
-
-
- 4.9.5.6 The setvbuf function
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <stdio.h>
- int setvbuf(FILE *stream, char *buf, int mode, size_t size);
-
- Description
-
- The setvbuf function may be used after the stream pointed to by
- stream has been associated with an open file but before any other
- operation is performed on the stream. The argument mode determines
- how stream will be buffered, as follows: _IOFBF causes input/output to
- be fully buffered; _IOLBF causes output to be line buffered; _IONBF
- causes input/output to be unbuffered. If buf is not a null pointer,
- the array it points to may be used instead of a buffer allocated by
- the setvbuf function./105/ The argument size specifies the size of the
- array. The contents of the array at any time are indeterminate.
-
- Returns
-
- The setvbuf function returns zero on success, or nonzero if an
- invalid value is given for mode or if the request cannot be honored.
-
-
- 4.9.6 Formatted input/output functions
-
- 4.9.6.1 The fprintf function
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <stdio.h>
- int fprintf(FILE *stream, const char *format, ...);
-
- Description
-
- The fprintf function writes output to the stream pointed to by
- stream , under control of the string pointed to by format that
- specifies how subsequent arguments are converted for output. If there
- are insufficient arguments for the format, the behavior is undefined.
- If the format is exhausted while arguments remain, the excess
- arguments are evaluated (as always) but are otherwise ignored. The
- fprintf function returns when the end of the format string is
- encountered.
-
- The format shall be a multibyte character sequence, beginning and
- ending in its initial shift state. The format is composed of zero or
- more directives: ordinary multibyte characters (not % ), which are
- copied unchanged to the output stream; and conversion specifications,
- each of which results in fetching zero or more subsequent arguments.
- Each conversion specification is introduced by the character % .
- After the % , the following appear in sequence:
-
- * Zero or more flags that modify the meaning of the conversion
- specification.
-
- * An optional decimal integer specifying a minimum field width ./106/
- If the converted value has fewer characters than the field width, it
- will be padded with spaces on the left (or right, if the left
- adjustment flag, described later, has been given) to the field width.
-
- * An optional precision that gives the minimum number of digits to
- appear for the d , i , o , u , x , and X conversions, the number of
- digits to appear after the decimal-point character for e , E , and f
- conversions, the maximum number of significant digits for the g and G
- conversions, or the maximum number of characters to be written from a
- string in s conversion. The precision takes the form of a period (.)
- followed by an optional decimal integer; if the integer is
- omitted, it is treated as zero.
-
- * An optional h specifying that a following d , i , o , u , x , or X
- conversion specifier applies to a short int or unsigned short int
- argument (the argument will have been promoted according to the
- integral promotions, and its value shall be converted to short int or
- unsigned short int before printing); an optional h specifying that a
- following n conversion specifier applies to a pointer to a short int
- argument; an optional l (ell) specifying that a following d , i , o ,
- u , x , or X conversion specifier applies to a long int or unsigned
- long int argument; an optional l specifying that a following n
- conversion specifier applies to a pointer to a long int argument; or
- an optional L specifying that a following e , E , f , g , or G
- conversion specifier applies to a long double argument. If an h , l ,
- or L appears with any other conversion specifier, the behavior is
- undefined.
-
- * A character that specifies the type of conversion to be applied.
-
- A field width or precision, or both, may be indicated by an
- asterisk * instead of a digit string. In this case, an int argument
- supplies the field width or precision. The arguments specifying field
- width or precision, or both, shall appear (in that order) before the
- argument (if any) to be converted. A negative field width argument is
- taken as a - flag followed by a positive field width. A negative
- precision argument is taken as if it were missing.
-
- The flag characters and their meanings are=20
-
- - The result of the conversion will be left-justified within the field. =
- =20
-
- + The result of a signed conversion will always begin with a plus or=20
- minus sign. =20
-
- space If the first character of a signed conversion is not a sign,=20
- or if a signed conversion results in no characters, a space will be
- prepended to the result. If the space and + flags both appear, the
- space flag will be ignored.
-
- # The result is to be converted to an ``alternate form.'' For
- o conversion, it increases the precision to force the first digit of
- the result to be a zero. For x (or X ) conversion, a nonzero result
- will have 0x (or 0X ) prepended to it. For e , E , f , g , and G
- conversions, the result will always contain a decimal-point character,
- even if no digits follow it (normally, a decimal-point character
- appears in the result of these conversions only if a digit follows
- it). For g and G conversions, trailing zeros will not be removed from
- the result. For other conversions, the behavior is undefined. =20
-
- 0 For d, i, o, u, x, X, e, E, f, g and G conversions, leading zeros=20
- (following any indication of sign or base) are used to pad to the
- field width; no space padding is performed. If the 0 and - flags
- both appear, the 0 flag will be ignored. For d, i, o, u, x and X
- conversions, if a precision is specified, the 0 flag will be
- ignored. For other conversions, the behavior is undefined.
-
- The conversion specifiers and their meanings are

- d, i, o, u, x, X The int argument is converted to signed decimal ( d
- or i ), unsigned octal ( o ), unsigned decimal ( u ), or unsigned
- hexadecimal notation ( x or X ); the letters abcdef are used for x
- conversion and the letters ABCDEF for X conversion. The precision
- specifies the minimum number of digits to appear; if the value being
- converted can be represented in fewer digits, it will be expanded with
- leading zeros. The default precision is 1. The result of converting
- a zero value with an explicit precision of zero is no characters.
-
- f The double argument is converted to decimal notation in the style
- [-]ddd.ddd , where the number of digits after the decimal-point
- character is equal to the precision specification. If the precision
- is missing, it is taken as 6; if the precision is explicitly zero, no
- decimal-point character appears. If a decimal-point character
- appears, at least one digit appears before it. The value is rounded
- to the appropriate number of digits.
-
- e, E The double argument is converted in the style [-]d.ddde+- dd ,
- where there is one digit before the decimal-point character (which is
- nonzero if the argument is nonzero) and the number of digits after it
- is equal to the precision; if the precision is missing, it is taken as
- 6; if the precision is zero, no decimal-point character appears. The
- value is rounded to the appropriate number of digits. The E
- conversion specifier will produce a number with E instead of e
- introducing the exponent. The exponent always contains at least two
- digits. If the value is zero, the exponent is zero.
-
- g, G The double argument is converted in style f or e (or in style E
- in the case of a G conversion specifier), with the precision
- specifying the number of significant digits. If an explicit precision
- is zero, it is taken as 1. The style used depends on the value
- converted; style e will be used only if the exponent resulting from
- such a conversion is less than -4 or greater than or equal to the
- precision. Trailing zeros are removed from the fractional portion of
- the result; a decimal-point character appears only if it is followed
- by a digit.
-
- c The int argument is converted to an unsigned char , and the resulting
- character is written.
-
- s The argument shall be a pointer to an array of character type./107/
- Characters from the array are written up to (but not including) a
- terminating null character; if the precision is specified, no more
- than that many characters are written. If the precision is not
- specified or is greater than the size of the array, the array shall
- contain a null character.
-
- p The argument shall be a pointer to void . The value of the pointer
- is converted to a sequence of printable characters, in an
- implementation-defined manner.
-
- n The argument shall be a pointer to an integer into which is written
- the number of characters written to the output stream so far by this
- call to fprintf . No argument is converted.
-
- % A % is written. No argument is converted. The complete conversion
- specification shall be %% .
-
- If a conversion specification is invalid, the behavior is
- undefined./108/
-
- If any argument is, or points to, a union or an aggregate (except
- for an array of character type using %s conversion, or a pointer cast
- to be a pointer to void using %p conversion), the behavior is
- undefined.
-
- In no case does a nonexistent or small field width cause truncation
- of a field; if the result of a conversion is wider than the field
- width, the field is expanded to contain the conversion result.
-
- Returns
-
- The fprintf function returns the number of characters transmitted,
- or a negative value if an output error occurred.
-
- "Environmental limit"
-
- The minimum value for the maximum number of characters produced by
- any single conversion shall be 509.
-
- Examples
-
- To print a date and time in the form ``Sunday, July 3, 10:02,''
- where weekday and month are pointers to strings:
-
- #include <stdio.h>
- fprintf(stdout, "%s, %s %d, %.2d:%.2d\n",
- weekday, month, day, hour, min);
-
- To print PI to five decimal places:=20
-
- #include <math.h>
- #include <stdio.h>
- fprintf(stdout, "pi =3D %.5f\n", 4 * atan(1.0));

-
- 4.9.6.2 The fscanf function
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <stdio.h>
- int fscanf(FILE *stream, const char *format, ...);
-
- Description
-
- The fscanf function reads input from the stream pointed to by
- stream , under control of the string pointed to by format that
- specifies the admissible input sequences and how they are to be
- converted for assignment, using subsequent arguments as pointers to
- the objects to receive the converted input. If there are insufficient
- arguments for the format, the behavior is undefined. If the format is
- exhausted while arguments remain, the excess arguments are evaluated
- (as always) but are otherwise ignored.
-
- The format shall be a multibyte character sequence, beginning and
- ending in its initial shift state. The format is composed of zero or
- more directives: one or more white-space characters; an ordinary
- multibyte character (not % ); or a conversion specification. Each
- conversion specification is introduced by the character % . After the %,
- the following appear in sequence:
-
- * An optional assignment-suppressing character * . =20
-
- * An optional decimal integer that specifies the maximum field width. =20
-
- * An optional h , l (ell) or L indicating the size of the receiving
- object. The conversion specifiers d , i , and n shall be preceded by
- h if the corresponding argument is a pointer to short int rather than
- a pointer to int , or by l if it is a pointer to long int .
- Similarly, the conversion specifiers o , u , and x shall be preceded
- by h if the corresponding argument is a pointer to unsigned short int
- rather than a pointer to unsigned int , or by l if it is a pointer to
- unsigned long int . Finally, the conversion specifiers e , f , and g
- shall be preceded by l if the corresponding argument is a pointer to
- double rather than a pointer to float , or by L if it is a pointer to
- long double . If an h , l , or L appears with any other conversion
- specifier, the behavior is undefined.
-
- * A character that specifies the type of conversion to be applied.
- The valid conversion specifiers are described below.
-
- The fscanf function executes each directive of the format in turn.
- If a directive fails, as detailed below, the fscanf function returns.
- Failures are described as input failures (due to the unavailability of
- input characters), or matching failures (due to inappropriate input).
-
- A directive composed of white space is executed by reading input up
- to the first non-white-space character (which remains unread), or
- until no more characters can be read.
-
- A directive that is an ordinary multibyte character is executed by
- reading the next characters of the stream. If one of the characters
- differs from one comprising the directive, the directive fails, and
- the differing and subsequent characters remain unread.
-
- A directive that is a conversion specification defines a set of
- matching input sequences, as described below for each specifier. A
- conversion specification is executed in the following steps:
-
- Input white-space characters (as specified by the isspace function)
- are skipped, unless the specification includes a [ , c , or n
- specifier.
-
- An input item is read from the stream, unless the specification
- includes an n specifier. An input item is defined as the longest
- sequence of input characters (up to any specified maximum field width)
- which is an initial subsequence of a matching sequence. The first
- character, if any, after the input item remains unread. If the length
- of the input item is zero, the execution of the directive fails: this
- condition is a matching failure, unless an error prevented input from
- the stream, in which case it is an input failure.
-
- Except in the case of a % specifier, the input item (or, in the
- case of a %n directive, the count of input characters) is converted to
- a type appropriate to the conversion specifier. If the input item is
- not a matching sequence, the execution of the directive fails: this
- condition is a matching failure. Unless assignment suppression was
- indicated by a * , the result of the conversion is placed in the
- object pointed to by the first argument following the format argument
- that has not already received a conversion result. If this object
- does not have an appropriate type, or if the result of the conversion
- cannot be represented in the space provided, the behavior is
- undefined.
-
- The following conversion specifiers are valid:
-
- d Matches an optionally signed decimal integer, whose format is the
- same as expected for the subject sequence of the strtol function with
- the value 10 for the base argument. The corresponding argument shall
- be a pointer to integer.
-
- i Matches an optionally signed integer, whose format is the same as
- expected for the subject sequence of the strtol function with the
- value 0 for the base argument. The corresponding argument shall be a
- pointer to integer.
-
- o Matches an optionally signed octal integer, whose format is the same
- as expected for the subject sequence of the strtoul function with the
- value 8 for the base argument. The corresponding argument shall be a
- pointer to unsigned integer.
-
- u Matches an optionally signed decimal integer, whose format is the same
- as expected for the subject sequence of the strtoul function with the
- value 10 for the base argument. The corresponding argument shall be a
- pointer to unsigned integer.
-
- x Matches an optionally signed hexadecimal integer, whose format is the
- same as expected for the subject sequence of the strtoul function with
- the value 16 for the base argument. The corresponding argument shall
- be a pointer to unsigned integer.
-
- e,f,g Matches an optionally signed floating-point number, whose format is
- the same as expected for the subject string of the strtod function.
- The corresponding argument shall be a pointer to floating.
-
- s Matches a sequence of non-white-space characters. The corresponding
- argument shall be a pointer to the initial character of an array large
- enough to accept the sequence and a terminating null character, which
- will be added automatically.
-
- [ Matches a nonempty sequence of characters from a set of expected
- characters (the scanset ). The corresponding argument shall be a
- pointer to the initial character of an array large enough to accept
- the sequence and a terminating null character, which will be added
- automatically. The conversion specifier includes all subsequent
- characters in the format string, up to and including the matching
- right bracket ( ] ). The characters between the brackets (the
- scanlist ) comprise the scanset, unless the character after the left
- bracket is a circumflex ( ^ ), in which case the scanset contains all
- characters that do not appear in the scanlist between the circumflex
- and the right bracket. As a special case, if the conversion specifier
- begins with [] or [^] , the right bracket character is in the scanlist
- and the next right bracket character is the matching right bracket
- that ends the specification. If a - character is in the scanlist and
- is not the first, nor the second where the first character is a ^ ,
- nor the last character, the behavior is implementation-defined.
-
- c Matches a sequence of characters of the number specified by the
- field width (1 if no field width is present in the directive). The
- corresponding argument shall be a pointer to the initial character of
- an array large enough to accept the sequence. No null character is
- added.
-
- p Matches an implementation-defined set of sequences, which should be
- the same as the set of sequences that may be produced by the %p
- conversion of the fprintf function. The corresponding argument shall
- be a pointer to a pointer to void . The interpretation of the input
- item is implementation-defined; however, for any input item other than
- a value converted earlier during the same program execution, the
- behavior of the %p conversion is undefined.
-
- n No input is consumed. The corresponding argument shall be a pointer
- to integer into which is to be written the number of characters read
- from the input stream so far by this call to the fscanf function.
- Execution of a %n directive does not increment the assignment count
- returned at the completion of execution of the fscanf function.
-
- % Matches a single % ; no conversion or assignment occurs. The complete
- conversion specification shall be %% .
-
- If a conversion specification is invalid, the behavior is
- undefined./110/
-
- The conversion specifiers E , G , and X are also valid and behave
- the same as, respectively, e , g , and x .
-
- If end-of-file is encountered during input, conversion is
- terminated. If end-of-file occurs before any characters matching the
- current directive have been read (other than leading white space,
- where permitted), execution of the current directive terminates with
- an input failure; otherwise, unless execution of the current directive
- is terminated with a matching failure, execution of the following
- directive (if any) is terminated with an input failure.
-
- If conversion terminates on a conflicting input character, the
- offending input character is left unread in the input stream.
- Trailing white space (including new-line characters) is left unread
- unless matched by a directive. The success of literal matches and
- suppressed assignments is not directly determinable other than via the
- %n directive.
-
- Returns
-
- The fscanf function returns the value of the macro EOF if an input
- failure occurs before any conversion. Otherwise, the fscanf function
- returns the number of input items assigned, which can be fewer than
- provided for, or even zero, in the event of an early matching failure.
-
- Examples
-
- The call:=20
-
- #include <stdio.h>
- int n, i; float x; char name[50];
- n =3D fscanf(stdin, "%d%f%s", &i, &x, name);
-
- with the input line:=20
-
- 25 54.32E-1 thompson
-
- will assign to n the value 3, to i the value 25, to x the value 5.432,
- and name will contain thompson\0 . Or:
-
- #include <stdio.h>
- int i; float x; char name[50];
- fscanf(stdin, "%2d%f%*d %[0123456789]", &i, &x, name);
-
- with input:=20
-
- 56789 0123 56a72
-
- will assign to i the value 56 and to x the value 789.0, will skip
- 0123, and name will contain 56\0 . The next character read from the
- input stream will be a .
-
- To accept repeatedly from stdin a quantity, a unit of measure and
- an item name:
-
- #include <stdio.h>
- int count; float quant; char units[21], item[21];
- while (!feof(stdin) && !ferror(stdin)) {
- count =3D fscanf(stdin, "%f%20s of %20s",
- &quant, units, item);
- fscanf(stdin,"%*[^\n]");
- }
-
-
- If the stdin stream contains the following lines:=20
-
- 2 quarts of oil
- -12.8degrees Celsius
- lots of luck
- 10.0LBS of fertilizer
- 100ergs of energy
-
- the execution of the above example will be equivalent to the following
- assignments:
-
- quant =3D 2; strcpy(units, "quarts"); strcpy(item, "oil");
- count =3D 3;
- quant =3D -12.8; strcpy(units, "degrees");
- count =3D 2; /* "C" fails to match "o" */
- count =3D 0; /* "l" fails to match "%f" */
- quant =3D 10.0; strcpy(units, "LBS"); strcpy(item, "fertilizer");
- count =3D 3;
- count =3D 0; /* "100e" fails to match "%f" */
- count =3D EOF;

- The gets function reads characters from the input stream pointed to
- by stdin , into the array pointed to by s , until end-of-file is
- encountered or a new-line character is read. Any new-line character
- is discarded, and a null character is written immediately after the
- last character read into the array.
-
- Returns
-
- The gets function returns s if successful. If end-of-file is
- encountered and no characters have been read into the array, the
- contents of the array remain unchanged and a null pointer is returned.

- pointed to by stdout , and appends a new-line character to the output.
- The terminating null character is not written.
-
- Returns
-
- The puts function returns EOF if a write error occurs; otherwise it
- returns a nonnegative value.
-
-
- 4.9.7.11 The ungetc function
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <stdio.h>
- int ungetc(int c, FILE *stream);
-
- Description
-
- The ungetc function pushes the character specified by c (converted
- to an unsigned char ) back onto the input stream pointed to by stream.
- The pushed-back characters will be returned by subsequent reads on
- that stream in the reverse order of their pushing. A successful
- intervening call (with the stream pointed to by stream ) to a file
- positioning function ( fseek , fsetpos , or rewind ) discards any
- pushed-back characters for the stream. The external storage
- corresponding to the stream is unchanged.
-
- One character of pushback is guaranteed. If the ungetc function is
- called too many times on the same stream without an intervening read
- or file positioning operation on that stream, the operation may fail.
-
- If the value of c equals that of the macro EOF , the operation
- fails and the input stream is unchanged.
-
- A successful call to the ungetc function clears the end-of-file
- indicator for the stream. The value of the file position indicator
- for the stream after reading or discarding all pushed-back characters
- shall be the same as it was before the characters were pushed back.
- For a text stream, the value of its file position indicator after a
- successful call to the ungetc function is unspecified until all
- pushed-back characters are read or discarded. For a binary stream,
- its file position indicator is decremented by each successful call to
- the ungetc function; if its value was zero before a call, it is
- indeterminate after the call.
-
- Returns
-
- The ungetc function returns the character pushed back after
- conversion, or EOF if the operation fails.

- 4.9.8 Direct input/output functions
-
- 4.9.8.1 The fread function
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <stdio.h>
- size_t fread(void *ptr, size_t size, size_t nmemb,
- FILE *stream);
-
- Description
-
- The fread function reads, into the array pointed to by ptr , up to
- nmemb members whose size is specified by size , from the stream
- pointed to by stream . The file position indicator for the stream (if
- defined) is advanced by the number of characters successfully read.
- If an error occurs, the resulting value of the file position indicator
- for the stream is indeterminate. If a partial member is read, its
- value is indeterminate.
-
- Returns
-
- The fread function returns the number of members successfully read,
- which may be less than nmemb if a read error or end-of-file is
- encountered. If size or nmemb is zero, fread returns zero and the
- contents of the array and the state of the stream remain unchanged.
-
-
- 4.9.8.2 The fwrite function
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <stdio.h>
- size_t fwrite(const void *ptr, size_t size, size_t nmemb,
- FILE *stream);
-
- Description
-
- The fwrite function writes, from the array pointed to by ptr , up
- to nmemb members whose size is specified by size , to the stream
- pointed to by stream . The file position indicator for the stream (if
- defined) is advanced by the number of characters successfully written.
- If an error occurs, the resulting value of the file position indicator
- for the stream is indeterminate.
-
- Returns
-
- The fwrite function returns the number of members successfully
- written, which will be less than nmemb only if a write error is
- encountered.
-
-
- 4.9.9 File positioning functions
-
- 4.9.9.1 The fgetpos function
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <stdio.h>
- int fgetpos(FILE *stream, fpos_t *pos);
-
- Description
-
- The fgetpos function stores the current value of the file position
- indicator for the stream pointed to by stream in the object pointed to
- by pos . The value stored contains unspecified information usable by
- the fsetpos function for repositioning the stream to its position at
- the time of the call to the fgetpos function.
-
- Returns
-
- If successful, the fgetpos function returns zero; on failure, the
- fgetpos function returns nonzero and stores an implementation-defined
- positive value in errno .
-
- Forward references: the fsetpos function ($4.9.9.3). =20
-
-
- 4.9.9.2 The fseek function
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <stdio.h>
- int fseek(FILE *stream, long int offset, int whence);
-
- Description
-
- The fseek function sets the file position indicator for the stream
- pointed to by stream .
-
- For a binary stream, the new position, measured in characters from
- the beginning of the file, is obtained by adding offset to the
- position specified by whence. The specified point is the beginning
- of the file for SEEK_SET, the current value of the file position
- indicator for SEEK_CUR, or end-of-file for SEEK_END. A binary
- stream need not meaningfully support fseek calls with a whence value
- of SEEK_END.
-
- For a text stream, either offset shall be zero, or offset shall be
- a value returned by an earlier call to the ftell function on the same
- stream and whence shall be SEEK_SET .
-
- A successful call to the fseek function clears the end-of-file
- indicator for the stream and undoes any effects of the ungetc function
- on the same stream. After an fseek call, the next operation on an
- update stream may be either input or output.
-
- Returns
-
- The fseek function returns nonzero only for a request that cannot
- be satisfied.
-
- Forward references: the ftell function ($4.9.9.4). =20
-
-
- 4.9.9.3 The fsetpos function
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <stdio.h>
- int fsetpos(FILE *stream, const fpos_t *pos);
-
- Description
-
- The fsetpos function sets the file position indicator for the
- stream pointed to by stream according to the value of the object
- pointed to by pos , which shall be a value returned by an earlier call
- to the fgetpos function on the same stream.
-
- A successful call to the fsetpos function clears the end-of-file
- indicator for the stream and undoes any effects of the ungetc function
- on the same stream. After an fsetpos call, the next operation on an
- update stream may be either input or output.
-
- Returns
-
- If successful, the fsetpos function returns zero; on failure, the
- fsetpos function returns nonzero and stores an implementation-defined
- positive value in errno .
-
-
- 4.9.9.4 The ftell function
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <stdio.h>
- long int ftell(FILE *stream);
-
- Description
-
- The ftell function obtains the current value of the file position
- indicator for the stream pointed to by stream . For a binary stream,
- the value is the number of characters from the beginning of the file.
- For a text stream, its file position indicator contains unspecified
- information, usable by the fseek function for returning the file
- position indicator for the stream to its position at the time of the
- ftell call; the difference between two such return values is not
- necessarily a meaningful measure of the number of characters written
- or read.
-
- Returns
-
- If successful, the ftell function returns the current value of the
- file position indicator for the stream. On failure, the ftell
- function returns -1L and stores an implementation-defined positive
- value in errno .
-
-
- 4.9.9.5 The rewind function
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <stdio.h>
- void rewind(FILE *stream);
-
- Description
-
- The rewind function sets the file position indicator for the stream
- pointed to by stream to the beginning of the file. It is equivalent to
-
- (void)fseek(stream, 0L, SEEK_SET)
-
- except that the error indicator for the stream is also cleared. =20
-
- Returns
-
- The rewind function returns no value. =20

- The feof function tests the end-of-file indicator for the stream
- pointed to by stream .
-
- Returns
-
- The feof function returns nonzero if and only if the end-of-file
- indicator is set for stream .
-
-
- 4.9.10.3 The ferror function
-
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <stdio.h>
- int ferror(FILE *stream);
-

- 4.9.10.4 The perror function
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <stdio.h>
- void perror(const char *s);
-
- Description
-
- The perror function maps the error number in the integer expression
- errno to an error message. It writes a sequence of characters to the
- standard error stream thus: first (if s is not a null pointer and the
- character pointed to by s is not the null character), the string
- pointed to by s followed by a colon and a space; then an appropriate
- error message string followed by a new-line character. The contents
- of the error message strings are the same as those returned by the
- strerror function with argument errno , which are
- implementation-defined.
-
- Returns
-
- The perror function returns no value. =20
-
- Forward references: the strerror function ($4.11.6.2). =20

- maximum number of bytes in a multibyte character for the extended
- character set specified by the current locale (category LC_CTYPE ),
- and whose value is never greater than MB_LEN_MAX .
-
-
- 4.10.1 String conversion functions
-
- The functions atof , atoi , and atol need not affect the value of
- the integer expression errno on an error. If the value of the result
- cannot be represented, the behavior is undefined.
-
-
- 4.10.1.1 The atof function
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <stdlib.h>
- double atof(const char *nptr);
-
- Description
-
- The atof function converts the initial portion of the string
- pointed to by nptr to double representation. Except for the behavior
- on error, it is equivalent to
-
- strtod(nptr, (char **)NULL)
-
- Returns

- int atoi(const char *nptr);
-
- Description
-
- The atoi function converts the initial portion of the string
- pointed to by nptr to int representation. Except for the behavior on
- error, it is equivalent to
-
- (int)strtol(nptr, (char **)NULL, 10)
-
- Returns
-
- The atoi function returns the converted value. =20
-
- Forward references: the strtol function ($4.10.1.5). =20

-
- strtol(nptr, (char **)NULL, 10)
-

-
- Forward references: the strtol function ($4.10.1.5). =20
-
-
- 4.10.1.4 The strtod function
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <stdlib.h>
- double strtod(const char *nptr, char **endptr);
-
- Description
-
- The strtod function converts the initial portion of the string
- pointed to by nptr to double representation. First it decomposes the
- input string into three parts: an initial, possibly empty, sequence of
- white-space characters (as specified by the isspace function), a
- subject sequence resembling a floating-point constant; and a final
- string of one or more unrecognized characters, including the
- terminating null character of the input string. Then it attempts to
- convert the subject sequence to a floating-point number, and returns
- the result.
-
- The expected form of the subject sequence is an optional plus or
- minus sign, then a nonempty sequence of digits optionally containing a
- decimal-point character, then an optional exponent part as defined in
- $3.1.3.1, but no floating suffix. The subject sequence is defined as
- the longest subsequence of the input string, starting with the first
- non-white-space character, that is an initial subsequence of a
- sequence of the expected form. The subject sequence contains no
- characters if the input string is empty or consists entirely of white
- space, or if the first non-white-space character is other than a sign,
- a digit, or a decimal-point character.
-
- If the subject sequence has the expected form, the sequence of
- characters starting with the first digit or the decimal-point
- character (whichever occurs first) is interpreted as a floating
- constant according to the rules of $3.1.3.1, except that the
- decimal-point character is used in place of a period, and that if
- neither an exponent part nor a decimal-point character appears, a
- decimal point is assumed to follow the last digit in the string. If
- the subject sequence begins with a minus sign, the value resulting
- from the conversion is negated. A pointer to the final string is
- stored in the object pointed to by endptr , provided that endptr is
- not a null pointer.
-
- In other than the C locale, additional implementation-defined
- subject sequence forms may be accepted.
-
- If the subject sequence is empty or does not have the expected
- form, no conversion is performed; the value of nptr is stored in the
- object pointed to by endptr , provided that endptr is not a null
- pointer.
-
- Returns
-
- The strtod function returns the converted value, if any. If no
- conversion could be performed, zero is returned. If the correct value
- would cause overflow, plus or minus HUGE_VAL is returned (according to
- the sign of the value), and the value of the macro ERANGE is stored in
- errno . If the correct value would cause underflow, zero is returned
- and the value of the macro ERANGE is stored in errno .
-
-
- 4.10.1.5 The strtol function
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <stdlib.h>
- long int strtol(const char *nptr, char **endptr, int base);
-
- Description
-
- The strtol function converts the initial portion of the string
- pointed to by nptr to long int representation. First it decomposes
- the input string into three parts: an initial, possibly empty,
- sequence of white-space characters (as specified by the isspace
- function), a subject sequence resembling an integer represented in
- some radix determined by the value of base , and a final string of one
- or more unrecognized characters, including the terminating null
- character of the input string. Then it attempts to convert the
- subject sequence to an integer, and returns the result.
-
- If the value of base is zero, the expected form of the subject
- sequence is that of an integer constant as described in $3.1.3.2,
- optionally preceded by a plus or minus sign, but not including an
- integer suffix. If the value of base is between 2 and 36, the
- expected form of the subject sequence is a sequence of letters and
- digits representing an integer with the radix specified by base ,
- optionally preceded by a plus or minus sign, but not including an
- integer suffix. The letters from a (or A ) through z (or Z ) are
- ascribed the values 10 to 35; only letters whose ascribed values are
- less than that of base are permitted. If the value of base is 16, the
- characters 0x or 0X may optionally precede the sequence of letters and
- digits, following the sign if present.
-
- The subject sequence is defined as the longest subsequence of the
- input string, starting with the first non-white-space character, that
- is an initial subsequence of a sequence of the expected form. The
- subject sequence contains no characters if the input string is empty
- or consists entirely of white space, or if the first non-white-space
- character is other than a sign or a permissible letter or digit.
-
- If the subject sequence has the expected form and the value of base
- is zero, the sequence of characters starting with the first digit is
- interpreted as an integer constant according to the rules of $3.1.3.2.
- If the subject sequence has the expected form and the value of base is
- between 2 and 36, it is used as the base for conversion, ascribing to
- each letter its value as given above. If the subject sequence begins
- with a minus sign, the value resulting from the conversion is negated.
- A pointer to the final string is stored in the object pointed to by
- endptr , provided that endptr is not a null pointer.
-
- In other than the C locale, additional implementation-defined
- subject sequence forms may be accepted.
-
- If the subject sequence is empty or does not have the expected
- form, no conversion is performed; the value of nptr is stored in the
- object pointed to by endptr , provided that endptr is not a null
- pointer.
-
- Returns
-
- The strtol function returns the converted value, if any. If no
- conversion could be performed, zero is returned. If the correct value
- would cause overflow, LONG_MAX or LONG_MIN is returned (according to
- the sign of the value), and the value of the macro ERANGE is stored in
- errno .
-
-
- 4.10.1.6 The strtoul function
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <stdlib.h>
- unsigned long int strtoul(const char *nptr, char **endptr,
- int base);
-
- Description
-
- The strtoul function converts the initial portion of the string
- pointed to by nptr to unsigned long int representation. First it
- decomposes the input string into three parts: an initial, possibly
- empty, sequence of white-space characters (as specified by the isspace
- function), a subject sequence resembling an unsigned integer
- represented in some radix determined by the value of base , and a
- final string of one or more unrecognized characters, including the
- terminating null character of the input string. Then it attempts to
- convert the subject sequence to an unsigned integer, and returns the
- result.
-
- If the value of base is zero, the expected form of the subject
- sequence is that of an integer constant as described in $3.1.3.2,
- optionally preceded by a plus or minus sign, but not including an
- integer suffix. If the value of base is between 2 and 36, the
- expected form of the subject sequence is a sequence of letters and
- digits representing an integer with the radix specified by base ,
- optionally preceded by a plus or minus sign, but not including an
- integer suffix. The letters from a (or A ) through z (or Z ) are
- ascribed the values 10 to 35; only letters whose ascribed values are
- less than that of base are permitted. If the value of base is 16, the
- characters 0x or 0X may optionally precede the sequence of letters and
- digits, following the sign if present.
-
- The subject sequence is defined as the longest subsequence of the
- input string, starting with the first non-white-space character, that
- is an initial subsequence of a sequence of the expected form. The
- subject sequence contains no characters if the input string is empty
- or consists entirely of white space, or if the first non-white-space
- character is other than a sign or a permissible letter or digit.
-
- If the subject sequence has the expected form and the value of base
- is zero, the sequence of characters starting with the first digit is
- interpreted as an integer constant according to the rules of $3.1.3.2.
- If the subject sequence has the expected form and the value of base is
- between 2 and 36, it is used as the base for conversion, ascribing to
- each letter its value as given above. If the subject sequence begins
- with a minus sign, the value resulting from the conversion is negated.
- A pointer to the final string is stored in the object pointed to by
- endptr , provided that endptr is not a null pointer.
-
- In other than the C locale, additional implementation-defined
- subject sequence forms may be accepted.
-
- If the subject sequence is empty or does not have the expected
- form, no conversion is performed; the value of nptr is stored in the
- object pointed to by endptr , provided that endptr is not a null
- pointer.
-
- Returns
-
- The strtoul function returns the converted value, if any. If no
- conversion could be performed, zero is returned. If the correct value
- would cause overflow, ULONG_MAX is returned, and the value of the
- macro ERANGE is stored in errno .

-
- 4.10.2 Pseudo-random sequence generation functions
-
- 4.10.2.1 The rand function
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <stdlib.h>
- int rand(void);
-
- Description
-
- The rand function computes a sequence of pseudo-random integers in
- the range 0 to RAND_MAX .
-
- The implementation shall behave as if no library function calls the
- rand function.
-
- Returns
-
- The rand function returns a pseudo-random integer. =20
-
- "Environmental limit"
-
- The value of the RAND_MAX macro shall be at least 32767. =20
-
-
- 4.10.2.2 The srand function
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <stdlib.h>
- void srand(unsigned int seed);
-
- Description
-
- The srand function uses the argument as a seed for a new sequence
- of pseudo-random numbers to be returned by subsequent calls to rand .
- If srand is then called with the same seed value, the sequence of
- pseudo-random numbers shall be repeated. If rand is called before any
- calls to srand have been made, the same sequence shall be generated as
- when srand is first called with a seed value of 1.
-
- The implementation shall behave as if no library function calls the
- srand function.
-
- Returns
-
- The srand function returns no value. =20
-
- Example
-
- The following functions define a portable implementation of rand
- and srand. Specifying the semantics makes it possible to determine
- reproducibly the behavior of programs that use pseudo-random
- sequences. This facilitates the testing of portable applications in
- different implementations.
-
- static unsigned long int next =3D 1;
-
- int rand(void) /* RAND_MAX assumed to be 32767 */
- {
- next =3D next * 1103515245 + 12345;

- next =3D seed;
- }

-
-
- 4.10.3 Memory management functions
-
- The order and contiguity of storage allocated by successive calls
- to the calloc , malloc , and realloc functions is unspecified. The
- pointer returned if the allocation succeeds is suitably aligned so
- that it may be assigned to a pointer to any type of object and then
- used to access such an object in the space allocated (until the space
- is explicitly freed or reallocated). Each such allocation shall yield
- a pointer to an object disjoint from any other object. The pointer
- returned points to the start (lowest byte address) of the allocated
- space. If the space cannot be allocated, a null pointer is returned.
- If the size of the space requested is zero, the behavior is
- implementation-defined; the value returned shall be either a null
- pointer or a unique pointer. The value of a pointer that refers to
- freed space is indeterminate.
-
-
- 4.10.3.1 The calloc function
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <stdlib.h>
- void *calloc(size_t nmemb, size_t size);

- The calloc function allocates space for an array of nmemb objects,
- each of whose size is size . The space is initialized to all bits
- zero./114/
-
- Returns
-
- The calloc function returns either a null pointer or a pointer to
- the allocated space.
-
-
- 4.10.3.2 The free function
-
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <stdlib.h>
- void free(void *ptr);
-
- Description
-
- The free function causes the space pointed to by ptr to be
- deallocated, that is, made available for further allocation. If ptr
- is a null pointer, no action occurs. Otherwise, if the argument does
- not match a pointer earlier returned by the calloc , malloc , or
- realloc function, or if the space has been deallocated by a call to
- free or realloc , the behavior is undefined.
-
- Returns
-
- The free function returns no value. =20
-
-
- 4.10.3.3 The malloc function
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <stdlib.h>
- void *malloc(size_t size);
-
- Description
-
- The malloc function allocates space for an object whose size is
- specified by size and whose value is indeterminate.
-
- Returns
-
- The malloc function returns either a null pointer or a pointer to
- the allocated space.
-
-
- 4.10.3.4 The realloc function
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <stdlib.h>
- void *realloc(void *ptr, size_t size);
-
- Description
-
- The realloc function changes the size of the object pointed to by
- ptr to the size specified by size . The contents of the object shall
- be unchanged up to the lesser of the new and old sizes. If the new
- size is larger, the value of the newly allocated portion of the object
- is indeterminate. If ptr is a null pointer, the realloc function
- behaves like the malloc function for the specified size. Otherwise,
- if ptr does not match a pointer earlier returned by the calloc ,
- malloc , or realloc function, or if the space has been deallocated by
- a call to the free or realloc function, the behavior is undefined. If
- the space cannot be allocated, the object pointed to by ptr is
- unchanged. If size is zero and ptr is not a null pointer, the object
- it points to is freed.
-
- Returns
-
- The realloc function returns either a null pointer or a pointer to
- the possibly moved allocated space.
-
-
- 4.10.4 Communication with the environment
-
- 4.10.4.1 The abort function
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <stdlib.h>
- void abort(void);
-
- Description
-
- The abort function causes abnormal program termination to occur,
- unless the signal SIGABRT is being caught and the signal handler does
- not return. Whether open output streams are flushed or open streams
- closed or temporary files removed is implementation-defined. An
- implementation-defined form of the status unsuccessful termination is
- returned to the host environment by means of the function call
- raise(SIGABRT) .
-
- Returns
-
- The abort function cannot return to its caller. =20

- functions.
-
- Returns
-
- The atexit function returns zero if the registration succeeds,
- nonzero if it fails.
-
- Forward references: the exit function ($4.10.4.3). =20
-
-
- 4.10.4.3 The exit function
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <stdlib.h>
- void exit(int status);
-
- Description
-
- The exit function causes normal program termination to occur. If
- more than one call to the exit function is executed by a program, the
- behavior is undefined.
-
- First, all functions registered by the atexit function are called,
- in the reverse order of their registration./115/
-
- Next, all open output streams are flushed, all open streams are
- closed, and all files created by the tmpfile function are removed.
-
- Finally, control is returned to the host environment. If the value
- of status is zero or EXIT_SUCCESS , an implementation-defined form of
- the status successful termination is returned. If the value of status
- is EXIT_FAILURE , an implementation-defined form of the status
- unsuccessful termination is returned. Otherwise the status returned
- is implementation-defined.

- The getenv function searches an environment list, provided by the
- host environment, for a string that matches the string pointed to by
- name . The set of environment names and the method for altering the
- environment list are implementation-defined.
-
- The implementation shall behave as if no library function calls the
- getenv function.
-
- Returns
-
- The getenv function returns a pointer to a string associated with
- the matched list member. The array pointed to shall not be modified
- by the program, but may be overwritten by a subsequent call to the
- getenv function. If the specified name cannot be found, a null
- pointer is returned.

- 4.10.4.5 The system function
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <stdlib.h>
- int system(const char *string);
-
- Description
-
- The system function passes the string pointed to by string to the
- host environment to be executed by a command processor in an
- implementation-defined manner. A null pointer may be used for string
- to inquire whether a command processor exists.
-
- Returns
-
- If the argument is a null pointer, the system function returns
- nonzero only if a command processor is available. If the argument is
- not a null pointer, the system function returns an
- implementation-defined value.

- less than, equal to, or greater than zero if the key object is
- considered, respectively, to be less than, to match, or to be greater
- than the array member.
-
- Returns
-
- The bsearch function returns a pointer to a matching member of the
- array, or a null pointer if no match is found. If two members compare

-
- 4.10.6 Integer arithmetic functions
-
- 4.10.6.1 The abs function
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <stdlib.h>

-
- Returns
-
- The abs function returns the absolute value. =20
-
-
- 4.10.6.2 The div function
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <stdlib.h>
- div_t div(int numer, int denom);
-
- Description
-
- The div function computes the quotient and remainder of the
- division of the numerator numer by the denominator denom . If the
- division is inexact, the sign of the resulting quotient is that of the
- algebraic quotient, and the magnitude of the resulting quotient is the
- largest integer less than the magnitude of the algebraic quotient. If
- the result cannot be represented, the behavior is undefined;
- otherwise, quot * denom + rem shall equal numer .

- arguments and the members of the returned structure (which has type
- ldiv_t ) all have type long int .
-
-
- 4.10.7 Multibyte character functions
-
- The behavior of the multibyte character functions is affected by
- the LC_CTYPE category of the current locale. For a state-dependent
- encoding, each function is placed into its initial state by a call for
- which its character pointer argument, s , is a null pointer.
- Subsequent calls with s as other than a null pointer cause the
- internal state of the function to be altered as necessary. A call
- with s as a null pointer causes these functions to return a nonzero
- value if encodings have state dependency, and zero otherwise. After
- the LC_CTYPE category is changed, the shift state of these functions
- is indeterminate.
-
-
- 4.10.7.1 The mblen function
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <stdlib.h>
- int mblen(const char *s, size_t n);
-
- Description
-
- If s is not a null pointer, the mblen function determines the
- number of bytes comprising the multibyte character pointed to by s .
- Except that the shift state of the mbtowc function is not affected, it
- is equivalent to
-
- mbtowc((wchar_t *)0, s, n);
-
-
- The implementation shall behave as if no library function calls the
- mblen function.
-
- Returns
-
- If s is a null pointer, the mblen function returns a nonzero or
- zero value, if multibyte character encodings, respectively, do or do
- not have state-dependent encodings. If s is not a null pointer, the
- mblen function either returns 0 (if s points to the null character),
- or returns the number of bytes that comprise the multibyte character
- (if the next n or fewer bytes form a valid multibyte character), or
- returns -1 (if they do not form a valid multibyte character).
-
- Forward references: the mbtowc function ($4.10.7.2). =20
-
-
- 4.10.7.2 The mbtowc function
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <stdlib.h>
- int mbtowc(wchar_t *pwc, const char *s, size_t n);
-
- Description
-
- If s is not a null pointer, the mbtowc function determines the
- number of bytes that comprise the multibyte character pointed to by s.
- It then determines the code for value of type wchar_t that
- corresponds to that multibyte character. (The value of the code
- corresponding to the null character is zero.) If the multibyte
- character is valid and pwc is not a null pointer, the mbtowc function
- stores the code in the object pointed to by pwc . At most n bytes of
- the array pointed to by s will be examined.
-
- The implementation shall behave as if no library function calls the
- mbtowc function.
-
- Returns
-
- If s is a null pointer, the mbtowc function returns a nonzero or zero
- value, if multibyte character encodings, respectively, do or do not
- have state-dependent encodings. If s is not a null pointer, the
- mbtowc function either returns 0 (if s points to the null character),
- or returns the number of bytes that comprise the converted multibyte
- character (if the next n or fewer bytes form a valid multibyte
- character), or returns -1 (if they do not form a valid multibyte
- character).
-
- In no case will the value returned be greater than n or the value
- of the MB_CUR_MAX macro.
-
-
- 4.10.7.3 The wctomb function
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <stdlib.h>
- int wctomb(char *s, wchar_t wchar);
-
- Description
-
- The wctomb function determines the number of bytes needed to
- represent the multibyte character corresponding to the code whose
- value is wchar (including any change in shift state). It stores the
- multibyte character representation in the array object pointed to by s
- (if s is not a null pointer). At most MB_CUR_MAX characters are
- stored. If the value of wchar is zero, the wctomb function is left in
- the initial shift state.
-
- The implementation shall behave as if no library function calls the
- wctomb function.
-
- Returns
-
- If s is a null pointer, the wctomb function returns a nonzero or
- zero value, if multibyte character encodings, respectively, do or do
- not have state-dependent encodings. If s is not a null pointer, the
- wctomb function returns -1 if the value of wchar does not correspond
- to a valid multibyte character, or returns the number of bytes that
- comprise the multibyte character corresponding to the value of wchar .
-
- In no case will the value returned be greater than the value of the
- MB_CUR_MAX macro.
-
-
- 4.10.8 Multibyte string functions
-
- The behavior of the multibyte string functions is affected by the
- LC_CTYPE category of the current locale.

-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <stdlib.h>
- size_t mbstowcs(wchar_t *pwcs, const char *s, size_t n);
-
- Description
-
- The mbstowcs function converts a sequence of multibyte characters
- that begins in the initial shift state from the array pointed to by s
- into a sequence of corresponding codes and stores not more than n
- codes into the array pointed to by pwcs . No multibyte characters
- that follow a null character (which is converted into a code with
- value zero) will be examined or converted. Each multibyte character
- is converted as if by a call to the mbtowc function, except that the
- shift state of the mbtowc function is not affected.
-
- No more than n elements will be modified in the array pointed to by
- pwcs . If copying takes place between objects that overlap, the
- behavior is undefined.
-
- Returns
-
- If an invalid multibyte character is encountered, the mbstowcs
- function returns (size_t)-1 . Otherwise, the mbstowcs function
- returns the number of array elements modified, not including a
- terminating zero code, if any.rN
-
-
- 4.10.8.2 The wcstombs function
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <stdlib.h>
- size_t wcstombs(char *s, const wchar_t *pwcs, size_t n);
-
- Description
-
- The wcstombs function converts a sequence of codes that correspond
- to multibyte characters from the array pointed to by pwcs into a
- sequence of multibyte characters that begins in the initial shift
- state and stores these multibyte characters into the array pointed to
- by s , stopping if a multibyte character would exceed the limit of n
- total bytes or if a null character is stored. Each code is converted
- as if by a call to the wctomb function, except that the shift state of
- the wctomb function is not affected.
-
- No more than n bytes will be modified in the array pointed to by s
- . If copying takes place between objects that overlap, the behavior
- is undefined.
-
- Returns
-
- If a code is encountered that does not correspond to a valid
- multibyte character, the wcstombs function returns (size_t)-1 .
- Otherwise, the wcstombs function returns the number of bytes modified,
- not including a terminating null character, if any.rN
-
-
- 4.11 STRING HANDLING <string.h>
-
- 4.11.1 String function conventions
-
- The header <string.h> declares one type and several functions, and
- defines one macro useful for manipulating arrays of character type and
- other objects treated as arrays of character type./119/ The type is
- size_t and the macro is NULL (both described in $4.1.5). Various
- methods are used for determining the lengths of the arrays, but in all
- cases a char * or void * argument points to the initial (lowest
- addressed) character of the array. If an array is accessed beyond the
- end of an object, the behavior is undefined.

- 4.11.5.8 The strtok function
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <string.h>
- char *strtok(char *s1, const char *s2);
-
- Description
-
- A sequence of calls to the strtok function breaks the string
- pointed to by s1 into a sequence of tokens, each of which is delimited
- by a character from the string pointed to by s2 . The first call in
- the sequence has s1 as its first argument, and is followed by calls
- with a null pointer as their first argument. The separator string
- pointed to by s2 may be different from call to call.
-
- The first call in the sequence searches the string pointed to by s1
- for the first character that is not contained in the current separator
- string pointed to by s2 . If no such character is found, then there
- are no tokens in the string pointed to by s1 and the strtok function
- returns a null pointer. If such a character is found, it is the start
- of the first token.
-
- The strtok function then searches from there for a character that
- is contained in the current separator string. If no such character is
- found, the current token extends to the end of the string pointed to
- by s1 , and subsequent searches for a token will return a null
- pointer. If such a character is found, it is overwritten by a null
- character, which terminates the current token. The strtok function
- saves a pointer to the following character, from which the next search
- for a token will start.
-
- Each subsequent call, with a null pointer as the value of the first
- argument, starts searching from the saved pointer and behaves as
- described above.
-
- The implementation shall behave as if no library function calls the
- strtok function.
-
- Returns
-
- The strtok function returns a pointer to the first character of a
- token, or a null pointer if there is no token.
-
- Example
-
- #include <string.h>
- static char str[] =3D "?a???b,,,#c";
- char *t;
-
- t =3D strtok(str, "?"); /* t points to the token "a" */
- t =3D strtok(NULL, ","); /* t points to the token "??b" */
- t =3D strtok(NULL, "#,"); /* t points to the token "c" */
- t =3D strtok(NULL, "?"); /* t is a null pointer */

- =20
-
- Returns
-
- The strlen function returns the number of characters that precede
- the terminating null character.
-
-
- 4.12 DATE AND TIME <time.h>
-
- 4.12.1 Components of time
-
- The header <time.h> defines two macros, and declares four types an=
- d
- several functions for manipulating time. Many functions deal with a
- calendar time that represents the current date (according to the
- Gregorian calendar) and time. Some functions deal with local time,=20
- which is the calendar time expressed for some specific time zone, and=20
- with Daylight Saving Time, which is a temporary change in the
- algorithm for determining local time. The local time zone and
- Daylight Saving Time are implementation-defined.
-
- The macros defined are NULL (described in $4.1.5); and=20
-
- CLK_TCK
-
- which is the number per second of the value returned by the clock function.
-
- The types declared are size_t (described in $4.1.5);=20
-
- clock_t
-
- and=20
-
- time_t
-
- which are arithmetic types capable of representing times; and=20
-
- struct tm
-
- which holds the components of a calendar time, called the broken-down
- time. The structure shall contain at least the following members, in
- any order. The semantics of the members and their normal ranges are
- expressed in the comments./123/
-
- int tm_sec; /* seconds after the minute --- [0, 60] */
- int tm_min; /* minutes after the hour --- [0, 59] */
- int tm_hour; /* hours since midnight --- [0, 23] */
- int tm_mday; /* day of the month --- [1, 31] */
- int tm_mon; /* months since January --- [0, 11] */
- int tm_year; /* years since 1900 */
- int tm_wday; /* days since Sunday --- [0, 6] */
- int tm_yday; /* days since January 1 --- [0, 365] */
- int tm_isdst; /* Daylight Saving Time flag */
-
- The value of tm_isdst is positive if Daylight Saving Time is in
- effect, zero if Daylight Saving Time is not in effect, and negative if
- the information is not available.
-
-
- 4.12.2 Time manipulation functions
-
- 4.12.2.1 The clock function
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <time.h>
- clock_t clock(void);
-
- Description
-
- The clock function determines the processor time used. =20
-
- Returns
-
- The clock function returns the implementation's best approximation
- to the processor time used by the program since the beginning of an
- implementation-defined era related only to the program invocation. To
- determine the time in seconds, the value returned by the clock
- function should be divided by the value of the macro CLK_TCK . If the
- processor time used is not available or its value cannot be
- represented, the function returns the value (clock_t)-1 .
-
-
- 4.12.2.2 The difftime function
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <time.h>
- double difftime(time_t time1, time_t time0);
-
- Description
-
- The difftime function computes the difference between two calendar
- times: time1 - time0 .
-
- Returns
-
- The difftime function returns the difference expressed in seconds
- as a double .
-
-
- 4.12.2.3 The mktime function
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <time.h>
- time_t mktime(struct tm *timeptr);
-
- Description
-
- The mktime function converts the broken-down time, expressed as
- local time, in the structure pointed to by timeptr into a calendar
- time value with the same encoding as that of the values returned by
- the time function. The original values of the tm_wday and tm_yday
- components of the structure are ignored, and the original values of
- the other components are not restricted to the ranges indicated
- above./124/ On successful completion, the values of the tm_wday and
- tm_yday components of the structure are set appropriately, and the
- other components are set to represent the specified calendar time, but
- with their values forced to the ranges indicated above; the final
- value of tm_mday is not set until tm_mon and tm_year are determined.
-
- Returns
-
- The mktime function returns the specified calendar time encoded as
- a value of type time_t . If the calendar time cannot be represented,
- the function returns the value (time_t)-1 .
-
- Example
-
- What day of the week is July 4, 2001?=20
- =20
-
- #include <stdio.h>
- #include <time.h>
- static const char *const wday[] =3D {
- "Sunday", "Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday",
- "Thursday", "Friday", "Saturday", "-unknown-"
- };
- struct tm time_str;
-
-
-
- time_str.tm_year =3D 2001 - 1900;
- time_str.tm_mon =3D 7 - 1;
- time_str.tm_mday =3D 4;
- time_str.tm_hour =3D 0;
- time_str.tm_min =3D 0;
- time_str.tm_sec =3D 1;
- time_str.tm_isdst =3D -1;
- if (mktime(&time_str) =3D=3D -1)
- time_str.tm_wday =3D 7;
- printf("%s\n", wday[time_str.tm_wday]);

-
- 4.12.2.4 The time function
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <time.h>
- time_t time(time_t *timer);
-
- Description
-
- The time function determines the current calendar time. The
- encoding of the value is unspecified.
-
- Returns
-
- The time function returns the implementation's best approximation
- to the current calendar time. The value (time_t)-1 is returned if the
- calendar time is not available. If timer is not a null pointer, the
- return value is also assigned to the object it points to.
-
-
- 4.12.3 Time conversion functions
-
- Except for the strftime function, these functions return values in
- one of two static objects: a broken-down time structure and an array
- of char . Execution of any of the functions may overwrite the
- information returned in either of these objects by any of the other
- functions. The implementation shall behave as if no other library
- functions call these functions.

- The localtime function returns a pointer to that object. =20
-
-
- 4.12.3.5 The strftime function
-
- Synopsis
-
- #include <time.h>
- size_t strftime(char *s, size_t maxsize,
- const char *format, const struct tm *timeptr);
-
- Description
-
- The strftime function places characters into the array pointed to
- by s as controlled by the string pointed to by format . The format
- shall be a multibyte character sequence, beginning and ending in its
- initial shift state. The format string consists of zero or more
- conversion specifications and ordinary multibyte characters. A
- conversion specification consists of a % character followed by a
- character that determines the conversion specification's behavior.
- All ordinary multibyte characters (including the terminating null
- character) are copied unchanged into the array. If copying takes
- place between objects that overlap, the behavior is undefined. No
- more than maxsize characters are placed into the array. Each
- conversion specification is replaced by appropriate characters as
- described in the following list. The appropriate characters are
- determined by the program's locale and by the values contained in the
- structure pointed to by timeptr .
-
- "%a" is replaced by the locale's abbreviated weekday name. =20
- "%A" is replaced by the locale's full weekday name. =20
- "%b" is replaced by the locale's abbreviated month name. =20
- "%B" is replaced by the locale's full month name.
- "%c" is replaced by the locale's appropriate date and time representation.
- "%d" is replaced by the day of the month as a decimal number (01-31).
- "%H" is replaced by the hour (24-hour clock) as a decimal number (00-23).
- "%I" is replaced by the hour (12-hour clock) as a decimal number (01-12).=
- =20
- "%j" is replaced by the day of the year as a decimal number (001-366 ). =20
- "%m" is replaced by the month as a decimal number (01-12). =20
- "%M" is replaced by the minute as a decimal number (00-59). =20
- "%p" is replaced by the locale's equivalent of either AM or PM . =20
- "%S" is replaced by the second as a decimal number (00-60). =20
- "%U" is replaced by the week number of the year (ithe first Sunday as the=
- =20
- first day of week 1) as a decimal number (00-53). =20
- "%w" is replaced by the weekday as a decimal number (0-6), where Sunday is
- 0.
- "%W" is replaced by the week number of the year (the first Monday as the=20
- first day of week 1) as a decimal number (00-53).=20
- "%x" is replaced by the locale's appropriate date representation. =20
- "%X" is replaced by the locale's appropriate time representation. =20
- "%y" is replaced by the year without century as a decimal number (00-99).=
- =20
- "%Y" is replaced by the year with century as a decimal number. =20
- "%Z" is replaced by the time zone name, or by no characters if no time=20
- zone is determinable. =20
- "%%" is replaced by %.
-
- If a conversion specification is not one of the above, the behavior
- is undefined.
-
- Returns
-
- If the total number of resulting characters including the
- terminating null character is not more than maxsize , the strftime
- function returns the number of characters placed into the array
- pointed to by s not including the terminating null character.
- Otherwise, zero is returned and the contents of the array are
- indeterminate.

- A.6.5 Common extensions
-
- The following extensions are widely used in many systems, but are
- not portable to all implementations. The inclusion of any extension
- that may cause a strictly conforming program to become invalid renders
- an implementation nonconforming. Examples of such extensions are new
- keywords, or library functions declared in standard headers or
- predefined macros with names that do not begin with an underscore.
-
-
- A.6.5.1 Environment arguments
-
- In a hosted environment, the main function receives a third
- argument, char *envp[] , that points to a null-terminated array of
- pointers to char , each of which points to a string that provides
- information about the environment for this execution of the process
- ($2.1.2.2).
-
-
- A.6.5.2 Specialized identifiers
-
- Characters other than the underscore _ , letters, and digits, that
- are not defined in the required source character set (such as the
- dollar sign $ , or characters in national character sets) may appear

- declaration of which contains the keyword extern , has file scope
- ($3.1.2.1).

- Other arithmetic types, such as long long int , and their
- appropriate conversions are defined ($3.2.2.1).
-
-
- A.6.5.7 Function pointer casts
-
- A pointer to an object or to void may be cast to a pointer to a
- function, allowing data to be invoked as a function ($3.3.4). A
- pointer to a function may be cast to a pointer to an object or to void
- , allowing a function to be inspected or modified (for example, by a
- debugger) ($3.3.4).
-
-
- A.6.5.8 Non-int bit-field types
-
- Types other than int , unsigned int , or signed int can be declared
- as bit-fields, with appropriate maximum widths ($3.5.2.1).
-
-
- A.6.5.9 The fortran keyword
-
- The fortran type specifier may be used in a function declaration to
- indicate that function linkage suitable for FORTRAN is to be
- generated, or that different representations for external names are to
- be generated ($3.5.4.3).
-
-
- A.6.5.10 The asm keyword
-
- The asm keyword may be used to insert assembly-language code
- directly into the translator output. The most common implementation
- is via a statement of the form
-
- asm ( character-string-literal );
-
- ($3.6). =20
-
-
- A.6.5.11 Multiple external definitions
-
- There may be more than one external definition for the identifier
- of an object, with or without the explicit use of the keyword extern ,
- If the definitions disagree, or more than one is initialized, the
- behavior is undefined ($3.7.2).
-
-
- A.6.5.12 Empty macro arguments
-
- A macro argument may consist of no preprocessing tokens ($3.8.3). =20
-
-
- A.6.5.13 Predefined macro names
-
- Macro names that do not begin with an underscore, describing the
- translation and execution environments, may be defined by the
- implementation before translation begins ($3.8.8).
-
-
- A.6.5.14 Extra arguments for signal handlers
-
- Handlers for specific signals may be called with extra arguments in
- addition to the signal number ($4.7.1.1).
-
-
- A.6.5.15 Additional stream types and file-opening modes
-
- Additional mappings from files to streams may be supported
- ($4.9.2), and additional file-opening modes may be specified by
- characters appended to the mode argument of the fopen function
- ($4.9.5.3).
-
-
- A.6.5.16 Defined file position indicator
-
- The file position indicator is decremented by each successful call
- to the ungetc function for a text stream, except if its value was zero
- before a call ($4.9.7.11).

-
- 1. This Standard is designed to promote the portability of C programs
- among a variety of data-processing systems. It is intended for use by
- implementors and knowledgeable programmers, and is not a tutorial. It
- is accompanied by a Rationale document that explains many of the
- decisions of the Technical Committee that produced it.
-
- 2. Strictly conforming programs are intended to be maximally portable
- among conforming implementations. Conforming programs may depend upon
- nonportable features of a conforming implementation.
-
- 3. Implementations must behave as if these separate phases occur, even
- though many are typically folded together in practice.
-
- 4. As described in $3.1, the process of dividing a source file's
- characters into preprocessing tokens is context-dependent. For
- example, see the handling of < within a #include preprocessing
- directive.
-
- 5. The trigraph sequences enable the input of characters that are not
- defined in the "ISO 646-1983" Invariant Code Set, which is a subset of
- the seven-bit ASCII code set.
-
- 6. Implementations should avoid imposing fixed translation limits
- whenever possible.
-
- 7. See $3.1.2.5.
-
- 8. This model precludes floating-point representations other than
- sign-magnitude.
-
- 9. The floating-point model in that standard sums powers of from zero,
- so the values of the exponent limits are one less than shown here.
-
- 10. See ``future language directions'' ($3.9.1).
-
- 11. There is only one name space for tags even though three are
- possible.
-
- 12. In the case of a volatile object, the last store may not be
- explicit in the program.
-
- 13. A positional representation for integers that uses the binary
- digits 0 and 1, in which the values represented by successive bits are
- additive, begin with 1, and are multiplied by successive integral
- powers of 2, except perhaps the bit with the highest position.
-
- 14. Note that aggregate type does not include union type because an
- object with union type can only contain one member at a time.
-
- 15. There are three distinct combinations of qualified types.
-
- 16. Two types need not be identical to be compatible.
-
- 17. The semantics of these characters were discussed in $2.2.2.
-
- 18. See ``future language directions'' ($3.9.2).
-
- 19. A character string literal need not be a string (see $4.1.1),
- because a null character may be embedded in it by a \0 escape
- sequence.
-
- 20. Thus, sequences of characters that resemble escape sequences cause
- undefined behavior.
-
- 21. Thus comments do not nest.

- 22. In a two's-complement representation, there is no actual change in
- the bit pattern except filling the high-order bits with copies of the
- sign bit if the unsigned integer has greater size.
-
- 23. The remaindering operation done when a value of integral type is
- converted to unsigned type need not be done when a value of floating
- type is converted to unsigned type. Thus the range of portable values
- is [0, U type _MAX +1).
-
- 24. The name ``lvalue'' comes originally from the assignment
- expression E1 =3D E2 , in which the left operand E1 must be a
- (modifiable) lvalue. It is perhaps better considered as representing
- an object ``locator value.'' What is sometimes called ``rvalue'' is in
- this Standard described as the ``value of an expression.'' An obvious
- example of an lvalue is an identifier of an object. As a further
- example, if E is a unary expression that is a pointer to an object, *E
- is an lvalue that designates the object to which E points.
-
- 25. Because this conversion does not occur, the operand of the sizeof
- operator remains a function designator and violates the constraint in
- $3.3.3.4.
-
- 26. This paragraph renders undefined statement expressions such as
- i =3D ++i + 1; while allowing i =3D i + 1;
-
- 27. The syntax specifies the precedence of operators in the evaluation
- of an expression, which is the same as the order of the major
- subsections of this section, highest precedence first. Thus, for
- example, the expressions allowed as the operands of the binary +
- operator ($3.3.6) shall be those expressions defined in $3.3.1 through
- $3.3.6. The exceptions are cast expressions ($3.3.4) as operands of
- unary operators ($3.3.3), and an operand contained between any of the
- following pairs of operators: grouping parentheses () ($3.3.1),
- subscripting brackets [] ($3.3.2.1), function-call parentheses ()
- ($3.3.2.2), and the conditional operator ?: ($3.3.15). Within each
- major subsection, the operators have the same precedence. Left- or
- right-associativity is indicated in each subsection by the syntax for
- the expressions discussed therein.
-
- 28. The intent of this list is to specify those circumstances in which
- an object may or may not be aliased.
-
- 29. Most often, this is the result of converting an identifier that is
- a function designator.
-
- 30. That is, a function with external linkage and no information about
- its parameters that returns an int . If in fact it is not defined as
- having type ``function returning int ,'' the behavior is undefined.
-
- 31. A function may change the values of its parameters, but these
- changes cannot affect the values of the arguments. On the other hand,
- it is possible to pass a pointer to an object, and the function may
- change the value of the object pointed to. A parameter declared to
- have array or function type is converted to a parameter with a pointer
- type as described in
-
- 32. If &E is a valid pointer expression (where & is the ``address-o=
- f''
- operator, which generates a pointer to its operand) the expression
- (&E)->MOS is the same as E.MOS .
-
- 33. The ``byte orders'' for scalar types are invisible to isolated
- programs that do not indulge in type punning (for example, by
- assigning to one member of a union and inspecting the storage by
- accessing another member that is an appropriately sized array of
- character type), but must be accounted for when conforming to
- externally-imposed storage layouts.
-
- 34. It is always true that if E is a function designator or an lvalue
- that is a valid operand of the unary & operator, *&E is a function
- designator or an lvalue equal to E . If *P is an lvalue and T is the
- name of an object pointer type, the cast expression *(T)P is an lvalue
- that has a type compatible with that to which T points. Among the
- invalid values for dereferencing a pointer by the unary * operator are
- a null pointer, an address inappropriately aligned for the type of
- object pointed to, or the address of an object that has automatic
- storage duration when execution of the block in which the object is
- declared and of all enclosed blocks has terminated.
-
- 35. When applied to a parameter declared to have array or function
- type, the sizeof operator yields the size of the pointer obtained by
- converting as in $3.2.2.1; see $3.7.1.
-
- 36. A cast does not yield an lvalue.
-
- 37. The mapping functions for converting a pointer to an integer or an
- integer to a pointer are intended to be consistent with the addressing
- structure of the execution environment.
-
- 38. The expression a<b<c is not interpreted as in ordinary
- mathematics. As the syntax indicates, it means (a<b)<c ; in other
- words, ``if a is less than b compare 1 to c ; otherwise compare 0 to c
- .''
-
- 39. Because of the precedences, a<b =3D=3D c<d is 1 whenever a<b a=
- nd c<d
- have the same truth-value.
-
- 40. If invalid prior pointer operations, such as accesses outside
- array bounds, produced undefined behavior, the effect of subsequent
- comparisons is undefined.
-
- 41. A conditional expression does not yield an lvalue.
-
- 42. The asymmetric appearance of these constraints with respect to
- type qualifiers is due to the conversion (specified in $3.2.2.1) that
- changes lvalues to ``the value of the expression'' which removes any
- type qualifiers from the top type of the expression.
-
- 43. A comma operator does not yield an lvalue.
-
- 44. The operand of a sizeof operator is not evaluated ($3.3.3.4), and
- thus any operator in $3.3 may be used.
-
- 45. An integral constant expression must be used to specify the size
- of a bit-field member of a structure, the value of an enumeration
- constant, the size of an array, or the value of a case constant.
- Further constraints that apply to the integral constant expressions
- used in conditional-inclusion preprocessing directives are discussed
- in $3.8.1.
-
- 46. Thus in the following initialization, static int i =3D 2 || 1 / 0;
- the expression is a valid integral constant expression with value one.
-
- 47. Function definitions have a different syntax, described in $3.7.1.
-
- 48. See ``future language directions'' ($3.9.3).
-
- 49. The implementation may treat any register declaration simply as an
- auto declaration. However, whether or not addressable storage is
- actually used, the address of any part of an object declared with
- storage-class specifier register may not be computed, either
- explicitly (by use of the unary & operator as discussed in $3.3.3.2)
- or implicitly (by converting an array name to a pointer as discussed
- in $3.2.2.1). Thus the only operator that can be applied to an array
- declared with storage-class specifier register is sizeof .
-
- 50. The unary & (address-of) operator may not be applied to a
- bit-field object; thus there are no pointers to or arrays of bit-field
- objects.
-
- 51. An unnamed bit-field is useful for padding to conform to
- externally-imposed layouts.
-
- 52. Thus, the identifiers of enumeration constants in the same scope
- shall all be distinct from each other and from other identifiers
- declared in ordinary declarators.
-
- 53. A similar construction with enum does not exist and is not
- necessary as there can be no mutual dependencies between the
- declaration of an enumerated type and any other type.
-
- 54. It is not needed, for example, when a typedef name is declared to
- be a specifier for a structure or union, or when a pointer to or a
- function returning a structure or union is being declared. (See
- incomplete types in $3.1.2.5.) The specification shall be complete
- before such a function is called or defined.
-
- 55. Of course, when the declaration is of a typedef name, subsequent
- declarations can make use of the typedef name to declare objects
- having the specified structure, union, or enumerated type.
-
- 56. The implementation may place a const object that is not volatile
- in a read-only region of storage. Moreover, the implementation need
- not allocate storage for such an object if its address is never used.
-
- 57. This applies to those objects that behave as if they were defined
- with qualified types, even if they are never actually defined as
- objects in the program (such as an object at a memory-mapped
- input/output address).
-
- 58. A volatile declaration may be used to describe an object
- corresponding to a memory-mapped input/output port or an object
- accessed by an asynchronously interrupting function. Actions on
- objects so declared shall not be ``optimized out'' by an
- implementation or reordered except as permitted by the rules for
- evaluating expressions.
-
- 59. Both of these can only occur through the use of typedef s.
-
- 60. When several ``array of'' specifications are adjacent, a
- multi-dimensional array is declared.
-
- 61. The macros defined in the <stdarg.h> header ($4.8) may be used to
- access arguments that follow an ellipsis.
-
- 62. See ``future language directions'' ($3.9.4).
-
- 63. If both function types are ``old style,'' parameter types are not
- compared.
-
- 64. As indicated by the syntax, empty parentheses in a type name are
- interpreted as ``function with no parameter specification,'' rather
- than redundant parentheses around the omitted identifier.
-
- 65. Unlike in the base document, any automatic duration object may be
- initialized.
-
- 66. Such as assignments, and function calls which have side effects.
-
- 67. Thus specifies initialization for the loop; the controlling
- expression, specifies an evaluation made before each iteration, such
- that execution of the loop continues until the expression compares
- equal to 0; specifies an operation (such as incrementing) that is
- performed after each iteration.
-
- 68. Following the contin: label is a null statement.
-
- 69. Thus, if an identifier declared with external linkage is not used
- in an expression, there need be no external definition for it.
-
- 70. The intent is that the top type in a function definition cannot be
- inherited from a typedef: typedef int F(void); /* type F is ``function
- of no arguments returning int '' */ F f, g; /* f and g both have type
- compatible with F */ F f { /*...*/ } /* WRONG: syntax/constraint error
- */ F g() { /*...*/ } /* WRONG: declares that g returns a function */
- int f(void) { /*...*/ } /* RIGHT: f has type compatible with F */ int
- g() { /*...*/ } /* RIGHT: g has type compatible with F */ F *e(void) {
- /*...*/ } /* e returns a pointer to a function */ F *((e))(void) {
- /*...*/ } /* same: parentheses irrelevant */ int (*fp)(void); /* fp
- points to a function that has type F */ F *Fp; /* Fp points to a
- function that has type F */
-
- 71. See ``future language directions'' ($3.9.5).
-
- 72. A parameter is in effect declared at the head of the compound
- statement that constitutes the function body, and therefore may not be
- redeclared in the function body (except in an enclosed block).
-
- 73. Thus preprocessing directives are commonly called ``lines.'' These
- ``lines'' have no other syntactic significance, as all white space is
- equivalent except in certain situations during preprocessing (see the
- # character string literal creation operator in $3.8.3.2, for
- example).
-
- 74. Because the controlling constant expression is evaluated during
- translation phase 4, all identifiers either are or are not macro names
- --- there simply are no keywords, enumeration constants, and so on.
-
- 75. Thus the constant expression in the following #if directive and if
- statement is not guaranteed to evaluate to the same value in these two
- contexts. #if 'z' - 'a' =3D=3D 25 if ('z' - 'a' =3D=3D 25)
-
- 76. As indicated by the syntax, a preprocessing token shall not follow
- a #else or #endif directive before the terminating new-line character.
- However, comments may appear anywhere in a source file, including
- within a preprocessing directive.
-
- 77. Note that adjacent string literals are not concatenated into a
- single string literal (see the translation phases in $2.1.1.2); thus
- an expansion that results in two string literals is an invalid
- directive.
-
- 78. Since, by macro-replacement time, all character constants and
- string literals are preprocessing tokens, not sequences possibly
- containing identifier-like subsequences (see $2.1.1.2, translation
- phases), they are never scanned for macro names or parameters.
-
- 79. Thus indicating a Standard-conforming implementation.
-
- 80. The functions that make use of the decimal-point character are
- localeconv , fprintf , fscanf , printf , scanf , sprintf , sscanf ,
- vfprintf , vprintf , vsprintf , atof , and strtod .
-
- 81. A header is not necessarily a source file, nor are the < and >
- delimited sequences in header names necessarily valid source file
- names.
-
- 82. The list of reserved external identifiers includes errno , setjmp ,
- and va_end .
-
- 83. The macro errno need not be the identifier of an object. It might
- be a modifiable lvalue resulting from a function call (for example,
- *errno() ).
-
- 84. Thus, a program that uses errno for error checking should set it
- to zero before a library function call, then inspect it before a
- subsequent library function call.
-
- 85. See ``future library directions'' ($4.13.1).
-
- 86. This means that an implementation must provide an actual function
- for each library function, even if it also provides a macro for that
- function.
-
- 87. Because external identifiers and some macro names beginning with
- an underscore are reserved, implementations may provide special
- semantics for such names. For example, the identifier _BUILTIN_abs
- could be used to indicate generation of in-line code for the abs
- function. Thus, the appropriate header could specify #define abs(x)
- _BUILTIN_abs(x) for a compiler whose code generator will accept it.
- In this manner, a user desiring to guarantee that a given library
- function such as abs will be a genuine function may write #undef abs
- whether the implementation's header provides a macro implementation of
- abs or a builtin implementation. The prototype for the function,
- which precedes and is hidden by any macro definition, is thereby
- revealed also.
-
- 88. The message written might be of the form Assertion failed: file
- line
-
- 89. See ``future library directions'' ($4.13.2).
-
- 90. In an implementation that uses the seven-bit ASCII character set,
- the printing characters are those whose values lie from 0x20 (space)
- through 0x7E (tilde); the control characters are those whose values
- lie from 0 (NUL) through 0x1F (US), and the character 0x7F (DEL).
-
- 91. See ``future library directions'' ($4.13.3).
-
- 92. The only functions in $4.3 whose behavior is not affected by the
- current locale are isdigit and isxdigit .
-
- 93. See ``future library directions'' ($4.13.4).
-
- 94. In an implementation that supports infinities, this allows
- infinity as an argument to be a domain error if the mathematical
- domain of the function does not include infinity.
-
- 95. These functions are useful for dealing with unusual conditions
- encountered in a low-level function of a program.
-
- 96. For example, by executing a return statement or because another
- longjmp call has caused a transfer to a setjmp invocation in a
- function earlier in the set of nested calls.
-
- 97. See ``future library directions'' ($4.13.5). The names of the
- signal numbers reflect the following terms (respectively): abort,
- floating-point exception, illegal instruction, interrupt, segmentation
- violation, and termination.
-
- 98. Of course, the contents of the file name strings are subject to
- other system-specific constraints.
-
- 99. An implementation need not distinguish between text streams and
- binary streams. In such an implementation, there need be no new-line
- characters in a text stream nor any limit to the length of a line.
-
- 100. This is described in the Base Document as a That term is not used
- in this Standard to avoid confusion with a pointer to an object that
- has type FILE .
-
- 101. Among the reasons the implementation may cause the rename
- function to fail are that the file is open or that it is necessary to
- copy its contents to effectuate its renaming.
-
- 102. Files created using strings generated by the tmpnam function are
- temporary only in the sense that their names should not collide with
- those generated by conventional naming rules for the implementation.
- It is still necessary to use the remove function to remove such files
- when their use is ended, and before program termination.
-
- 103. Additional characters may follow these sequences.
-
- 104. The primary use of the freopen function is to change the file
- associated with a standard text stream ( stderr , stdin , or stdout ),
- as those identifiers need not be modifiable lvalues to which the value
- returned by the fopen function may be assigned.
-
- 105. The buffer must have a lifetime at least as great as the open
- stream, so the stream should be closed before a buffer that has
- automatic storage duration is deallocated upon block exit.
-
- 106. Note that 0 is taken as a flag, not as the beginning of a field
- width.
-
- 107. No special provisions are made for multibyte characters.
-
- 108. See ``future library directions'' ($4.13.6).
-
- 109. No special provisions are made for multibyte characters.
-
- 110. See ``future library directions'' ($4.13.6).
-
- 111. As vfprintf , vsprintf , and vprintf invoke the va_arg macro, the
- value of arg after the return is indeterminate.
-
- 112. An end-of-file and a read error can be distinguished by use of
- the feof and ferror functions.
-
- 113. See ``future library directions'' ($4.13.7).
-
- 114. Note that this need not be the same as the representation of
- floating-point zero or a null pointer constant.
-
- 115. Each function is called as many times as it was registered.
-
- 116. Notice that the key-to-member comparison an ordering on the
- array.
-
- 117. In a two's complement representation, the absolute value of the
- most negative number cannot be represented.
-
- 118. The array will not be null- or zero-terminated if the value
- returned is n .
-
- 119. See ``future library directions'' ($4.13.8).
-
- 120. Thus, if there is no null character in the first n characters of
- the array pointed to by s2 , the result will not be null-terminated.
-
- 121. Thus the maximum number of characters that end up in the array
- pointed to by s1 is strlen(s1)+n+1 .
-
- 122. The contents of ``holes'' used as padding for purposes of
- alignment within structure objects are indeterminate, unless the
- contents of the entire object have been set explicitly, as by the
- calloc or memset function. Strings shorter than their allocated space
- and unions may also cause problems in comparison.
-
- 123. The range [0, 60] for tm_sec allows for the occasional leap
- second.
-
- 124. Thus, a positive or zero value for tm_isdst causes the mktime
- function initially to presume that Daylight Saving Time, respectively,
- is or is not in effect for the specified time. A negative value for
- tm_isdst causes the mktime function to attempt to determine whether
- Daylight Saving Time is in effect for the specified time.
