SCANF_L(3) FreeBSD Library Functions Manual SCANF_L(3)
NAME
scanf_l, fscanf_l, sscanf_l, vfscanf_l, vscanf_l, vsscanf_l - input
format conversion
LIBRARY
Standard C Library (libc, -lc)
SYNOPSIS
#include <stdio.h>
#include <xlocale.h>
int
scanf_l(locale_t loc, const char * restrict format, ...);
int
fscanf_l(FILE * restrict stream, locale_t loc,
const char * restrict format, ...);
int
sscanf_l(const char * restrict str, locale_t loc,
const char * restrict format, ...);
int
vfscanf_l(FILE * restrict stream, locale_t loc,
const char * restrict format, va_list ap);
int
vscanf_l(locale_t loc, const char * restrict format, va_list ap);
int
vsscanf_l(const char * restrict str, locale_t loc,
const char * restrict format, va_list ap);
DESCRIPTION
The above functions scan input according to a specified format in the
locale loc. They behave in the same way as the versions without the _l
suffix, but use the specific locale rather than the global or per-thread
locale. See the specific manual pages for more information.
SEE ALSO
scanf(3), xlocale(3)
STANDARDS
These functions do not conform to any specific standard so they should be
considered as non-portable local extensions.
HISTORY
These functions first appeared in Darwin and were first implemented in
FreeBSD 9.1.
