NAME
vfprintf, vprintf, vsnprintf, vsprintf - format output of a stdarg
argument list
SYNOPSIS
#include <stdarg.h>
#include <stdio.h>
int vfprintf(FILE *restrict stream, const char *restrict format,
va_list ap);
int vprintf(const char *restrict format, va_list ap);
int vsnprintf(char *restrict s, size_t n, const char *restrict format,
va_list ap);
int vsprintf(char *restrict s, const char *restrict format, va_list
ap);
DESCRIPTION
The vprintf(), vfprintf(), vsnprintf(), and vsprintf() functions shall
be equivalent to printf(), fprintf(), snprintf(), and sprintf()
respectively, except that instead of being called with a variable
number of arguments, they are called with an argument list as defined
by <stdarg.h>.
These functions shall not invoke the va_end macro. As these functions
invoke the va_arg macro, the value of ap after the return is
unspecified.
RETURN VALUE
Refer to fprintf() .
ERRORS
Refer to fprintf() .
The following sections are informative.
EXAMPLES
None.
APPLICATION USAGE
Applications using these functions should call va_end(ap) afterwards to
clean up.
RATIONALE
None.
FUTURE DIRECTIONS
None.
