STRCHR(3) FreeBSD Library Functions Manual STRCHR(3)
NAME
strchr, strrchr, strchrnul - locate character in string
LIBRARY
Standard C Library (libc, -lc)
SYNOPSIS
#include <string.h>
char *
strchr(const char *s, int c);
char *
strrchr(const char *s, int c);
char *
strchrnul(const char *s, int c);
DESCRIPTION
The strchr() function locates the first occurrence of c (converted to a
char) in the string pointed to by s. The terminating null character is
considered part of the string; therefore if c is `\0', the functions
locate the terminating `\0'.
The strrchr() function is identical to strchr() except it locates the
last occurrence of c.
The strchrnul() function is identical to strchr() except that if c is not
found in s a pointer to the terminating `\0' is returned.
RETURN VALUES
The functions strchr() and strrchr() return a pointer to the located
character, or NULL if the character does not appear in the string.
strchrnul() returns a pointer to the terminating `\0' if the character
does not appear in the string.
