- ABSTRACT
-
-
-
- (Cover sheet to be provided by ISO Secretariat.)
-
-This International Standard specifies the form and establishes the interpretation of
-programs expressed in the programming language C. Its purpose is to promote
-portability, reliability, maintainability, and efficient execution of C language programs on
-a variety of computing systems.
-
-Clauses are included that detail the C language itself and the contents of the C language
-execution library. Annexes summarize aspects of both of them, and enumerate factors
-that influence the portability of C programs.
-
-Although this International Standard is intended to guide knowledgeable C language
-programmers as well as implementors of C language translation systems, the document
-itself is not designed to serve as a tutorial.
-
-Recipients of this draft are invited to submit, with their comments, notification of any
-relevant patent rights of which they are aware and to provide supporting documentation.
-
-Changes from the previous draft (N1256) are indicated by ''diff marks'' in the right
-margin: deleted text is marked with ''*'', new or changed text with '' ''.

- Foreword
-1 ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) and IEC (the International
- Electrotechnical Commission) form the specialized system for worldwide
- standardization. National bodies that are member of ISO or IEC participate in the
- development of International Standards through technical committees established by the
- respective organization to deal with particular fields of technical activity. ISO and IEC
- technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international
- organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO and IEC, also
- take part in the work.
-2 International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC
- Directives, Part 2. This International Standard was drafted in accordance with the fifth
- edition (2004).
-3 In the field of information technology, ISO and IEC have established a joint technical
- committee, ISO/IEC JTC 1. Draft International Standards adopted by the joint technical
- committee are circulated to national bodies for voting. Publication as an International
- Standard requires approval by at least 75% of the national bodies casting a vote.
-4 Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be
- the subject of patent rights. ISO and IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any
- or all such patent rights.
-5 This International Standard was prepared by Joint Technical Committee ISO/IEC JTC 1,
- Information technology, Subcommittee SC 22, Programming languages, their
- environments and system software interfaces. The Working Group responsible for this
- standard (WG 14) maintains a site on the World Wide Web at http://www.open-
- std.org/JTC1/SC22/WG14/ containing additional information relevant to this
- standard such as a Rationale for many of the decisions made during its preparation and a
- log of Defect Reports and Responses.
-6 This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition, ISO/IEC 9899:1999, as
- corrected by ISO/IEC 9899:1999/Cor 1:2001, ISO/IEC 9899:1999/Cor 2:2004, and

- Introduction
-1 With the introduction of new devices and extended character sets, new features may be
- added to this International Standard. Subclauses in the language and library clauses warn
- implementors and programmers of usages which, though valid in themselves, may
- conflict with future additions.
-2 Certain features are obsolescent, which means that they may be considered for
- withdrawal in future revisions of this International Standard. They are retained because
- of their widespread use, but their use in new implementations (for implementation
- features) or new programs (for language [6.11] or library features [7.30]) is discouraged.
-3 This International Standard is divided into four major subdivisions:
- -- preliminary elements (clauses 1-4);
- -- the characteristics of environments that translate and execute C programs (clause 5);
- -- the language syntax, constraints, and semantics (clause 6);
- -- the library facilities (clause 7).
-4 Examples are provided to illustrate possible forms of the constructions described.
- Footnotes are provided to emphasize consequences of the rules described in that
- subclause or elsewhere in this International Standard. References are used to refer to
- other related subclauses. Recommendations are provided to give advice or guidance to
- implementors. Annexes provide additional information and summarize the information
- contained in this International Standard. A bibliography lists documents that were
- referred to during the preparation of the standard.
-5 The language clause (clause 6) is derived from ''The C Reference Manual''.
-6 The library clause (clause 7) is based on the 1984 /usr/group Standard.

-
- 1. Scope
-1 This International Standard specifies the form and establishes the interpretation of
- programs written in the C programming language.1) It specifies
- -- the representation of C programs;
- -- the syntax and constraints of the C language;
- -- the semantic rules for interpreting C programs;
- -- the representation of input data to be processed by C programs;
- -- the representation of output data produced by C programs;
- -- the restrictions and limits imposed by a conforming implementation of C.
-2 This International Standard does not specify
- -- the mechanism by which C programs are transformed for use by a data-processing
- system;
- -- the mechanism by which C programs are invoked for use by a data-processing
- system;
- -- the mechanism by which input data are transformed for use by a C program;
- -- the mechanism by which output data are transformed after being produced by a C
- program;
- -- the size or complexity of a program and its data that will exceed the capacity of any
- specific data-processing system or the capacity of a particular processor;
- -- all minimal requirements of a data-processing system that is capable of supporting a
- conforming implementation.
-
-
- 1) This International 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 programmers.

-[page 3]
-
-2 EXAMPLE An example of locale-specific behavior is whether the islower function returns true for
- characters other than the 26 lowercase Latin letters.
-
- 3.4.3
-1 undefined behavior
- behavior, upon use of a nonportable or erroneous program construct or of erroneous data,
- for which this International Standard imposes no requirements
-2 NOTE Possible 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).
-
-3 EXAMPLE An example of undefined behavior is the behavior on integer overflow.
-
- 3.4.4
-1 unspecified behavior
- use of an unspecified value, or other behavior where this International Standard provides

-2 NOTE 1 Two threads of execution can update and access separate memory locations without interfering

-
-3 NOTE 2 A bit-field and an adjacent non-bit-field member are in separate memory locations. The same
- applies to two bit-fields, if one is declared inside a nested structure declaration and the other is not, or if the
- two are separated by a zero-length bit-field declaration, or if they are separated by a non-bit-field member
- declaration. It is not safe to concurrently update two non-atomic bit-fields in the same structure if all
- members declared between them are also (non-zero-length) bit-fields, no matter what the sizes of those
- intervening bit-fields happen to be.
-
-4 EXAMPLE A structure declared as
- struct {
- char a;
- int b:5, c:11, :0, d:8;
- struct { int ee:8; } e;
- }
- contains four separate memory locations: The member a, and bit-fields d and e.ee are each separate
- memory locations, and can be modified concurrently without interfering with each other. The bit-fields b

-
- 4. Conformance
-1 In this International 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.
-2 If a ''shall'' or ''shall not'' requirement that appears outside of a constraint or runtime-
- constraint is violated, the behavior is undefined. Undefined behavior is otherwise
- indicated in this International 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''.
-3 A program that is correct in all other aspects, operating on correct data, containing
- unspecified behavior shall be a correct program and act in accordance with 5.1.2.3.
-4 The implementation shall not successfully translate a preprocessing translation unit
- containing a #error preprocessing directive unless it is part of a group skipped by
- conditional inclusion.
-5 A strictly conforming program shall use only those features of the language and library
- specified in this International Standard.3) It shall not produce output dependent on any
- unspecified, undefined, or implementation-defined behavior, and shall not exceed any
- minimum implementation limit.
-6 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 that does not
- use complex types and in which the use of the features specified in the library clause
- (clause 7) is confined to the contents of the standard headers <float.h>,
- <iso646.h>, <limits.h>, <stdalign.h>, <stdarg.h>, <stdbool.h>,
- <stddef.h>, and <stdint.h>. A conforming implementation may have extensions
- (including additional library functions), provided they do not alter the behavior of any
- strictly conforming program.4)
-
-
-
- 3) A strictly conforming program can use conditional features (see 6.10.8.3) provided the use is guarded
- by an appropriate conditional inclusion preprocessing directive using the related macro. For example:
- #ifdef __STDC_IEC_559__ /* FE_UPWARD defined */
- /* ... */
- fesetround(FE_UPWARD);
- /* ... */
- #endif
-
- 4) This implies that a conforming implementation reserves no identifiers other than those explicitly
- reserved in this International Standard.
-
-[page 8]
-
-7 A conforming program is one that is acceptable to a conforming implementation.5)
-8 An implementation shall be accompanied by a document that defines all implementation-
- defined and locale-specific characteristics and all extensions.
- Forward references: conditional inclusion (6.10.1), error directive (6.10.5),
- characteristics of floating types <float.h> (7.7), alternative spellings <iso646.h>
- (7.9), sizes of integer types <limits.h> (7.10), alignment <stdalign.h> (7.15),
- variable arguments <stdarg.h> (7.16), boolean type and values <stdbool.h>
- (7.18), common definitions <stddef.h> (7.19), integer types <stdint.h> (7.20).
-
-
-
-
- 5) Strictly conforming programs are intended to be maximally portable among conforming
- implementations. Conforming programs may depend upon nonportable features of a conforming
- implementation.
-

-
-
- 5. Environment
-1 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 International 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 this clause, only a few of many possible forward references
- have been noted.
- 5.1 Conceptual models
- 5.1.1 Translation environment
- 5.1.1.1 Program structure
-1 A C program need not all be translated at the same time. The text of the program is kept
- in units called source files, (or preprocessing files) in this International Standard. A
- source file together with all the headers and source files included via the preprocessing
- directive #include is known as a preprocessing translation unit. After preprocessing, a
- preprocessing translation unit 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, manipulation of objects whose identifiers have external linkage, or manipulation
- of data files. Translation units may be separately translated and then later linked to
- produce an executable program.
- Forward references: linkages of identifiers (6.2.2), external definitions (6.9),
- preprocessing directives (6.10).
- 5.1.1.2 Translation phases
-1 The precedence among the syntax rules of translation is specified by the following
- phases.6)
- 1. Physical source file multibyte characters are mapped, in an implementation-
- defined manner, 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.
-
-
-
- 6) Implementations shall behave as if these separate phases occur, even though many are typically folded
- together in practice. Source files, translation units, and translated translation units need not
- necessarily be stored as files, nor need there be any one-to-one correspondence between these entities
- and any external representation. The description is conceptual only, and does not specify any
- particular implementation.
-
-[page 10]
-
- 2. Each instance of a backslash character (\) immediately followed by a new-line
- character is deleted, splicing physical source lines to form logical source lines.
- Only the last backslash on any physical source line shall be eligible for being part
- of such a splice. A source file that is not empty shall end in a new-line character,
- which shall not be immediately preceded by a backslash character before any such
- splicing takes place.
- 3. The source file is decomposed into preprocessing tokens7) and sequences of
- white-space characters (including comments). A source file shall not end in a
- partial preprocessing token or in a partial comment. Each comment is replaced by
- one space character. New-line characters are retained. Whether each nonempty
- sequence of white-space characters other than new-line is retained or replaced by
- one space character is implementation-defined.
- 4. Preprocessing directives are executed, macro invocations are expanded, and
- _Pragma unary operator expressions are executed. If a character sequence that
- matches the syntax of a universal character name is produced by token
- concatenation (6.10.3.3), the behavior is undefined. A #include preprocessing
- directive causes the named header or source file to be processed from phase 1
- through phase 4, recursively. All preprocessing directives are then deleted.
- 5. Each source character set member and escape sequence in character constants and
- string literals is converted to the corresponding member of the execution character
- set; if there is no corresponding member, it is converted to an implementation-
- defined member other than the null (wide) character.8)
- 6. Adjacent string literal tokens are concatenated.
- 7. White-space characters separating tokens are no longer significant. Each
- preprocessing token is converted into a token. The resulting tokens are
- syntactically and semantically analyzed and translated as a translation unit.
- 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: universal character names (6.4.3), lexical elements (6.4),
-preprocessing directives (6.10), trigraph sequences (5.2.1.1), external definitions (6.9).
-
-
-
-7) As described in 6.4, 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.
-8) An implementation need not convert all non-corresponding source characters to the same execution
- character.
-
-[page 11]
-
- 5.1.1.3 Diagnostics
-1 A conforming implementation shall produce at least one diagnostic message (identified in
- an implementation-defined manner) if a preprocessing translation unit or translation unit
- contains a violation of any syntax rule or constraint, even if the behavior is also explicitly
- specified as undefined or implementation-defined. Diagnostic messages need not be
- produced in other circumstances.9)
-2 EXAMPLE An implementation shall issue a diagnostic for the translation unit:
- char i;
- int i;
- because in those cases where wording in this International Standard describes the behavior for a construct
- as being both a constraint error and resulting in undefined behavior, the constraint error shall be diagnosed.
-
- 5.1.2 Execution environments
-1 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 with static storage duration 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: storage durations of objects (6.2.4), initialization (6.7.9).
- 5.1.2.1 Freestanding environment
-1 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. Any library facilities available to a freestanding
- program, other than the minimal set required by clause 4, are implementation-defined.
-2 The effect of program termination in a freestanding environment is implementation-
- defined.
- 5.1.2.2 Hosted environment
-1 A hosted environment need not be provided, but shall conform to the following
- specifications if present.
-
-
-
-
- 9) The intent is that an implementation should identify the nature of, and where possible localize, each
- violation. Of course, an implementation is free to produce any number of diagnostics as long as a
- valid program is still correctly translated. It may also successfully translate an invalid program.
-
-[page 12]
-
- 5.1.2.2.1 Program startup
-1 The function called at program startup is named main. The implementation declares no
- prototype for this function. It shall be defined with a return type of int and 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[]) { /* ... */ }
- or equivalent;10) or in some other implementation-defined manner.
-2 If they are declared, the parameters to the main function shall obey the following
- constraints:
- -- The value of argc shall be nonnegative.
- -- argv[argc] shall be a null pointer.
- -- 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 uppercase and lowercase, the implementation
- shall ensure that the strings are received in lowercase.
- -- 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.
- 5.1.2.2.2 Program execution
-1 In a hosted environment, a program may use all the functions, macros, type definitions,
- and objects described in the library clause (clause 7).
-
-
-
-
- 10) Thus, int can be replaced by a typedef name defined as int, or the type of argv can be written as
- char ** argv, and so on.
-
-[page 13]
-
- 5.1.2.2.3 Program termination
-1 If the return type of the main function is a type compatible with int, 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;11) reaching the } that terminates the
- main function returns a value of 0. If the return type is not compatible with int, the
- termination status returned to the host environment is unspecified.
- Forward references: definition of terms (7.1.1), the exit function (7.22.4.4).
- 5.1.2.3 Program execution
-1 The semantic descriptions in this International Standard describe the behavior of an
- abstract machine in which issues of optimization are irrelevant.
-2 Accessing a volatile object, modifying an object, modifying a file, or calling a function
- that does any of those operations are all side effects,12) which are changes in the state of
- the execution environment. Evaluation of an expression in general includes both value
- computations and initiation of side effects. Value computation for an lvalue expression
- includes determining the identity of the designated object.
-3 Sequenced before is an asymmetric, transitive, pair-wise relation between evaluations
- executed by a single thread, which induces a partial order among those evaluations.
- Given any two evaluations A and B, if A is sequenced before B, then the execution of A
- shall precede the execution of B. (Conversely, if A is sequenced before B, then B is
- sequenced after A.) If A is not sequenced before or after B, then A and B are
- unsequenced. Evaluations A and B are indeterminately sequenced when A is sequenced
- either before or after B, but it is unspecified which.13) The presence of a sequence point
- between the evaluation of expressions A and B implies that every value computation and
- side effect associated with A is sequenced before every value computation and side effect
- associated with B. (A summary of the sequence points is given in annex C.)
-4 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
-
- 11) In accordance with 6.2.4, the lifetimes of objects with automatic storage duration declared in main
- will have ended in the former case, even where they would not have in the latter.
- 12) The IEC 60559 standard for binary floating-point arithmetic requires certain user-accessible status
- flags and control modes. Floating-point operations implicitly set the status flags; modes affect result
- values of floating-point operations. Implementations that support such floating-point state are
- required to regard changes to it as side effects -- see annex F for details. The floating-point
- environment library <fenv.h> provides a programming facility for indicating when these side
- effects matter, freeing the implementations in other cases.
- 13) The executions of unsequenced evaluations can interleave. Indeterminately sequenced evaluations
- cannot interleave, but can be executed in any order.
-
-[page 14]
-
- calling a function or accessing a volatile object).
-5 When the processing of the abstract machine is interrupted by receipt of a signal, the
- values of objects that are neither lock-free atomic objects nor of type volatile
- sig_atomic_t are unspecified, and the value of any object that is modified by the
- handler that is neither a lock-free atomic object nor of type volatile
- sig_atomic_t becomes undefined.
-6 The least requirements on a conforming implementation are:
- -- Accesses to volatile objects are evaluated strictly according to the rules of the abstract
- machine.
- -- 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
- 7.21.3. 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.
- This is the observable behavior of the program.
-7 What constitutes an interactive device is implementation-defined.
-8 More stringent correspondences between abstract and actual semantics may be defined by
- each implementation.
-9 EXAMPLE 1 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.
-10 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.
-
-11 EXAMPLE 2 In executing the fragment
- char c1, c2;
- /* ... */
- c1 = c1 + c2;
- the ''integer promotions'' require that the abstract machine promote the value of each variable to int size
- and then add the two ints and truncate the sum. Provided the addition of two chars can be done without
- overflow, or with overflow wrapping silently to produce the correct result, the actual execution need only
- produce the same result, possibly omitting the promotions.
-
-[page 15]
-
-12 EXAMPLE 3 Similarly, in the fragment
- float f1, f2;
- double d;
- /* ... */
- f1 = 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).
-
-13 EXAMPLE 4 Implementations employing wide registers have to take care to honor appropriate
- semantics. Values are independent of whether they are represented in a register or in memory. For
- example, an implicit spilling of a register is not permitted to alter the value. Also, an explicit store and load
- is required to round to the precision of the storage type. In particular, casts and assignments are required to
- perform their specified conversion. For the fragment
- double d1, d2;
- float f;
- d1 = f = expression;
- d2 = (float) expression;
- the values assigned to d1 and d2 are required to have been converted to float.
-
-14 EXAMPLE 5 Rearrangement for floating-point expressions is often restricted because of limitations in
- precision as well as range. The implementation cannot generally apply the mathematical associative rules
- for addition or multiplication, nor the distributive rule, because of roundoff error, even in the absence of
- overflow and underflow. Likewise, implementations cannot generally replace decimal constants in order to
- rearrange expressions. In the following fragment, rearrangements suggested by mathematical rules for real
- numbers are often not valid (see F.9).
- double x, y, z;
- /* ... */
- x = (x * y) * z; // not equivalent to x *= y * z;
- z = (x - y) + y ; // not equivalent to z = x;
- z = x + x * y; // not equivalent to z = x * (1.0 + y);
- y = x / 5.0; // not equivalent to y = x * 0.2;
-
-15 EXAMPLE 6 To illustrate the grouping behavior of expressions, in the following fragment
- int a, b;
- /* ... */
- a = a + 32760 + b + 5;
- the expression statement behaves exactly the same as
- a = (((a + 32760) + b) + 5);
- due to the associativity and precedence of these operators. Thus, the result of the sum (a + 32760) is
- next added to b, and that result is then added to 5 which results in the value assigned to a. On a machine in
- which overflows produce an explicit trap and in which the range of values representable by an int is
- [-32768, +32767], the implementation cannot rewrite this expression as
- a = ((a + b) + 32765);
- since if the values for a and b were, respectively, -32754 and -15, the sum a + b would produce a trap
- while the original expression would not; nor can the expression be rewritten either as
-
-[page 16]
-
- a = ((a + 32765) + b);
- or
- a = (a + (b + 32765));
- since the values for a and b might have been, respectively, 4 and -8 or -17 and 12. However, on a machine
- in which overflow silently generates some value and where positive and negative overflows cancel, the
- above expression statement can be rewritten by the implementation in any of the above ways because the
- same result will occur.
-
-16 EXAMPLE 7 The grouping of an expression does not completely determine its evaluation. In the
- following fragment
- #include <stdio.h>
- int sum;
- char *p;
- /* ... */
- sum = sum * 10 - '0' + (*p++ = getchar());
- the expression statement is grouped as if it were written as
- sum = (((sum * 10) - '0') + ((*(p++)) = (getchar())));
- but the actual increment of p can occur at any time between the previous sequence point and the next
- sequence point (the ;), and the call to getchar can occur at any point prior to the need of its returned
- value.

- Forward references: expressions (6.5), type qualifiers (6.7.3), statements (6.8), the
- signal function (7.14), files (7.21.3).
- 5.1.2.4 Multi-threaded executions and data races
-1 Under a hosted implementation, a program can have more than one thread of execution
- (or thread) running concurrently. The execution of each thread proceeds as defined by
- the remainder of this standard. The execution of the entire program consists of an
- execution of all of its threads.14) Under a freestanding implementation, it is
- implementation-defined whether a program can have more than one thread of execution.
-2 The value of an object visible to a thread T at a particular point is the initial value of the
- object, a value stored in the object by T , or a value stored in the object by another thread,
- according to the rules below.
-3 NOTE 1 In some cases, there may instead be undefined behavior. Much of this section is motivated by
- the desire to support atomic operations with explicit and detailed visibility constraints. However, it also
- implicitly supports a simpler view for more restricted programs.
-
-4 Two expression evaluations conflict if one of them modifies a memory location and the
- other one reads or modifies the same memory location.
-
-
-
-
- 14) The execution can usually be viewed as an interleaving of all of the threads. However, some kinds of
- atomic operations, for example, allow executions inconsistent with a simple interleaving as described
- below.
-
-[page 17]
-
-5 The library defines a number of atomic operations (7.17) and operations on mutexes
- (7.25.4) that are specially identified as synchronization operations. These operations play
- a special role in making assignments in one thread visible to another. A synchronization
- operation on one or more memory locations is either an acquire operation, a release
- operation, both an acquire and release operation, or a consume operation. A
- synchronization operation without an associated memory location is a fence and can be
- either an acquire fence, a release fence, or both an acquire and release fence. In addition,
- there are relaxed atomic operations, which are not synchronization operations, and
- atomic read-modify-write operations, which have special characteristics.
-6 NOTE 2 For example, a call that acquires a mutex will perform an acquire operation on the locations
- composing the mutex. Correspondingly, a call that releases the same mutex will perform a release
- operation on those same locations. Informally, performing a release operation on A forces prior side effects
- on other memory locations to become visible to other threads that later perform an acquire or consume
- operation on A. We do not include relaxed atomic operations as synchronization operations although, like
- synchronization operations, they cannot contribute to data races.
-
-7 All modifications to a particular atomic object M occur in some particular total order,
- called the modification order of M. If A and B are modifications of an atomic object M,
- and A happens before B, then A shall precede B in the modification order of M, which is
- defined below.
-8 NOTE 3 This states that the modification orders must respect the ''happens before'' relation.
-
-9 NOTE 4 There is a separate order for each atomic object. There is no requirement that these can be
- combined into a single total order for all objects. In general this will be impossible since different threads
- may observe modifications to different variables in inconsistent orders.
-
-10 A release sequence on an atomic object M is a maximal contiguous sub-sequence of side
- effects in the modification order of M, where the first operation is a release and every
- subsequent operation either is performed by the same thread that performed the release or
- is an atomic read-modify-write operation.
-11 Certain library calls synchronize with other library calls performed by another thread. In
- particular, an atomic operation A that performs a release operation on an object M
- synchronizes with an atomic operation B that performs an acquire operation on M and
- reads a value written by any side effect in the release sequence headed by A.
-12 NOTE 5 Except in the specified cases, reading a later value does not necessarily ensure visibility as
- described below. Such a requirement would sometimes interfere with efficient implementation.
-
-13 NOTE 6 The specifications of the synchronization operations define when one reads the value written by
- another. For atomic variables, the definition is clear. All operations on a given mutex occur in a single total
- order. Each mutex acquisition ''reads the value written'' by the last mutex release.
-
-14 An evaluation A carries a dependency 15) to an evaluation B if:
-
-
- 15) The ''carries a dependency'' relation is a subset of the ''sequenced before'' relation, and is similarly
- strictly intra-thread.
-
-[page 18]
-
- -- the value of A is used as an operand of B, unless:
- o B is an invocation of the kill_dependency macro,
-
- o A is the left operand of a && or || operator,
-
- o A is the left operand of a ? : operator, or
-
- o A is the left operand of a , operator;
- or
- -- A writes a scalar object or bit-field M, B reads from M the value written by A, and A
- is sequenced before B, or
- -- for some evaluation X, A carries a dependency to X and X carries a dependency to B.
-15 An evaluation A is dependency-ordered before16) an evaluation B if:
- -- A performs a release operation on an atomic object M, and B performs a consume
- operation on M and reads a value written by any side effect in the release sequence
- headed by A, or
- -- for some evaluation X, A is dependency-ordered before X and X carries a
- dependency to B.
-16 An evaluation A inter-thread happens before an evaluation B if A synchronizes with B, A
- is dependency-ordered before B, or, for some evaluation X:
- -- A synchronizes with X and X is sequenced before B,
- -- A is sequenced before X and X inter-thread happens before B, or
- -- A inter-thread happens before X and X inter-thread happens before B.
-17 NOTE 7 The ''inter-thread happens before'' relation describes arbitrary concatenations of ''sequenced
- before'', ''synchronizes with'', and ''dependency-ordered before'' relationships, with two exceptions. The
- first exception is that a concatenation is not permitted to end with ''dependency-ordered before'' followed
- by ''sequenced before''. The reason for this limitation is that a consume operation participating in a
- ''dependency-ordered before'' relationship provides ordering only with respect to operations to which this
- consume operation actually carries a dependency. The reason that this limitation applies only to the end of
- such a concatenation is that any subsequent release operation will provide the required ordering for a prior
- consume operation. The second exception is that a concatenation is not permitted to consist entirely of
- ''sequenced before''. The reasons for this limitation are (1) to permit ''inter-thread happens before'' to be
- transitively closed and (2) the ''happens before'' relation, defined below, provides for relationships
- consisting entirely of ''sequenced before''.
-
-18 An evaluation A happens before an evaluation B if A is sequenced before B or A inter-
- thread happens before B.
-
-
-
- 16) The ''dependency-ordered before'' relation is analogous to the ''synchronizes with'' relation, but uses
- release/consume in place of release/acquire.
-
-[page 19]
-
-19 A visible side effect A on an object M with respect to a value computation B of M
- satisfies the conditions:
- -- A happens before B, and
- -- there is no other side effect X to M such that A happens before X and X happens
- before B.
- The value of a non-atomic scalar object M, as determined by evaluation B, shall be the
- value stored by the visible side effect A.
-20 NOTE 8 If there is ambiguity about which side effect to a non-atomic object is visible, then there is a data
- race and the behavior is undefined.
-
-21 NOTE 9 This states that operations on ordinary variables are not visibly reordered. This is not actually
- detectable without data races, but it is necessary to ensure that data races, as defined here, and with suitable
- restrictions on the use of atomics, correspond to data races in a simple interleaved (sequentially consistent)
- execution.
-
-22 The visible sequence of side effects on an atomic object M, with respect to a value
- computation B of M, is a maximal contiguous sub-sequence of side effects in the
- modification order of M, where the first side effect is visible with respect to B, and for
- every subsequent side effect, it is not the case that B happens before it. The value of an
- atomic object M, as determined by evaluation B, shall be the value stored by some
- operation in the visible sequence of M with respect to B. Furthermore, if a value
- computation A of an atomic object M happens before a value computation B of M, and
- the value computed by A corresponds to the value stored by side effect X, then the value
- computed by B shall either equal the value computed by A, or be the value stored by side
- effect Y , where Y follows X in the modification order of M.
-23 NOTE 10 This effectively disallows compiler reordering of atomic operations to a single object, even if
- both operations are ''relaxed'' loads. By doing so, we effectively make the ''cache coherence'' guarantee
- provided by most hardware available to C atomic operations.
-
-24 NOTE 11 The visible sequence depends on the ''happens before'' relation, which in turn depends on the
- values observed by loads of atomics, which we are restricting here. The intended reading is that there must
- exist an association of atomic loads with modifications they observe that, together with suitably chosen
- modification orders and the ''happens before'' relation derived as described above, satisfy the resulting
- constraints as imposed here.
-
-25 The execution of a program contains a data race if it contains two conflicting actions in
- different threads, at least one of which is not atomic, and neither happens before the
- other. Any such data race results in undefined behavior.
-26 NOTE 12 It can be shown that programs that correctly use simple mutexes and
- memory_order_seq_cst operations to prevent all data races, and use no other synchronization
- operations, behave as though the operations executed by their constituent threads were simply interleaved,
- with each value computation of an object being the last value stored in that interleaving. This is normally
- referred to as ''sequential consistency''. However, this applies only to data-race-free programs, and data-
- race-free programs cannot observe most program transformations that do not change single-threaded
- program semantics. In fact, most single-threaded program transformations continue to be allowed, since
- any program that behaves differently as a result must contain undefined behavior.
-
-[page 20]
-
-27 NOTE 13 Compiler transformations that introduce assignments to a potentially shared memory location
- that would not be modified by the abstract machine are generally precluded by this standard, since such an
- assignment might overwrite another assignment by a different thread in cases in which an abstract machine
- execution would not have encountered a data race. This includes implementations of data member
- assignment that overwrite adjacent members in separate memory locations. We also generally preclude
- reordering of atomic loads in cases in which the atomics in question may alias, since this may violate the
- "visible sequence" rules.
-
-28 NOTE 14 Transformations that introduce a speculative read of a potentially shared memory location may
- not preserve the semantics of the program as defined in this standard, since they potentially introduce a data
- race. However, they are typically valid in the context of an optimizing compiler that targets a specific
- machine with well-defined semantics for data races. They would be invalid for a hypothetical machine that
- is not tolerant of races or provides hardware race detection.

- 5.2 Environmental considerations
- 5.2.1 Character sets
-1 Two sets of characters and their associated collating sequences shall be defined: the set in
- which source files are written (the source character set), and the set interpreted in the
- execution environment (the execution character set). Each set is further divided into a
- basic character set, whose contents are given by this subclause, and a set of zero or more
- locale-specific members (which are not members of the basic character set) called
- extended characters. The combined set is also called the extended character set. The
- values of the members of the execution character set are implementation-defined.
-2 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.
-3 Both the basic source and basic execution character sets shall have the following
- members: the 26 uppercase letters of the Latin 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 lowercase letters of the Latin 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 10 decimal digits
- 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
- the following 29 graphic characters
- ! " # % & ' ( ) * + , - . / :
- ; < = > ? [ \ ] ^ _ { | } ~
- the space character, and control characters representing horizontal tab, vertical tab, and
- form feed. The representation of each member of the source and execution basic
- character sets shall fit in a byte. 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 International Standard treats such an end-of-line indicator as if it
- were a single new-line character. In the basic 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 an identifier, a character
- constant, a string literal, a header name, a comment, or a preprocessing token that is never
-
-[page 22]
-
- converted to a token), the behavior is undefined.
-4 A letter is an uppercase letter or a lowercase letter as defined above; in this International
- Standard the term does not include other characters that are letters in other alphabets.
-5 The universal character name construct provides a way to name other characters.
- Forward references: universal character names (6.4.3), character constants (6.4.4.4),
- preprocessing directives (6.10), string literals (6.4.5), comments (6.4.9), string (7.1.1).
- 5.2.1.1 Trigraph sequences
-1 Before any other processing takes place, each occurrence of one of the following
- sequences of three characters (called trigraph sequences17)) is replaced with the
- corresponding single character.
- ??= # ??) ] ??! |
- ??( [ ??' ^ ??> }
- ??/ \ ??< { ??- ~
- No other trigraph sequences exist. Each ? that does not begin one of the trigraphs listed
- above is not changed.
-2 EXAMPLE 1
- ??=define arraycheck(a, b) a??(b??) ??!??! b??(a??)
- becomes
- #define arraycheck(a, b) a[b] || b[a]
-
-3 EXAMPLE 2 The following source line
- printf("Eh???/n");
- becomes (after replacement of the trigraph sequence ??/)
- printf("Eh?\n");
-
- 5.2.1.2 Multibyte characters
-1 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 basic character set shall be present and each character shall be encoded as a
- single byte.
- -- The presence, meaning, and representation of any additional members is locale-
- specific.
-
- 17) The trigraph sequences enable the input of characters that are not defined in the Invariant Code Set as
- described in ISO/IEC 646, which is a subset of the seven-bit US ASCII code set.
-
-[page 23]
-
- -- A multibyte character set may have a state-dependent encoding, wherein each
- sequence of multibyte characters begins in an initial shift state and enters other
- locale-specific 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. Such a byte shall not occur as part of any other multibyte character.
-2 For source files, the following shall hold:
- -- An identifier, comment, string literal, character constant, or header name shall begin
- and end in the initial shift state.
- -- An identifier, comment, string literal, character constant, or header name shall consist
- of a sequence of valid multibyte characters.
- 5.2.2 Character display semantics
-1 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 printing 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 writing is locale-specific. If the active
- position is at the final position of a line (if there is one), the behavior of the display device
- is unspecified.
-2 Alphabetic escape sequences representing nongraphic characters in the execution
- character set are intended to produce actions on display devices as follows:
- \a (alert) Produces an audible or visible alert without changing the active position.
- \b (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 of the display
- device is unspecified.
- \f ( form feed) Moves the active position to the initial position at the start of the next
- logical page.
- \n (new line) Moves the active position to the initial position of the next line.
- \r (carriage return) Moves the active position to the initial position of the current line.
- \t (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 of the display device is unspecified.
- \v (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
-
-[page 24]
-
- tabulation position, the behavior of the display device is unspecified.
-3 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
- International Standard.
- Forward references: the isprint function (7.4.1.8), the fputc function (7.21.7.3).
- 5.2.3 Signals and interrupts
-1 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 compose the executable representation of a function) on a
- per-invocation basis.
- 5.2.4 Environmental limits
-1 Both the translation and execution environments constrain the implementation of
- language translators and libraries. The following summarizes the language-related
- environmental limits on a conforming implementation; the library-related limits are
- discussed in clause 7.
- 5.2.4.1 Translation limits
-1 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:18)
- -- 127 nesting levels of blocks
- -- 63 nesting levels of conditional inclusion
- -- 12 pointer, array, and function declarators (in any combinations) modifying an
- arithmetic, structure, union, or void type in a declaration
- -- 63 nesting levels of parenthesized declarators within a full declarator
- -- 63 nesting levels of parenthesized expressions within a full expression
- -- 63 significant initial characters in an internal identifier or a macro name (each
- universal character name or extended source character is considered a single
- character)
- -- 31 significant initial characters in an external identifier (each universal character name
- specifying a short identifier of 0000FFFF or less is considered 6 characters, each
-
-
- 18) Implementations should avoid imposing fixed translation limits whenever possible.
-
-[page 25]
-
- universal character name specifying a short identifier of 00010000 or more is
- considered 10 characters, and each extended source character is considered the same
- number of characters as the corresponding universal character name, if any)19)
- -- 4095 external identifiers in one translation unit
- -- 511 identifiers with block scope declared in one block
- -- 4095 macro identifiers simultaneously defined in one preprocessing translation unit
- -- 127 parameters in one function definition
- -- 127 arguments in one function call
- -- 127 parameters in one macro definition
- -- 127 arguments in one macro invocation
- -- 4095 characters in a logical source line
- -- 4095 characters in a string literal (after concatenation)
- -- 65535 bytes in an object (in a hosted environment only)
- -- 15 nesting levels for #included files
- -- 1023 case labels for a switch statement (excluding those for any nested switch
- statements)
- -- 1023 members in a single structure or union
- -- 1023 enumeration constants in a single enumeration
- -- 63 levels of nested structure or union definitions in a single struct-declaration-list
- 5.2.4.2 Numerical limits
-1 An implementation is required to document all the limits specified in this subclause,
- which are specified in the headers <limits.h> and <float.h>. Additional limits are
- specified in <stdint.h>.
- Forward references: integer types <stdint.h> (7.20).
- 5.2.4.2.1 Sizes of integer types <limits.h>
-1 The values given below shall be replaced by constant expressions suitable for use in #if
- preprocessing directives. Moreover, except for CHAR_BIT and MB_LEN_MAX, the
- following shall be replaced by expressions that have the same type as would an
- expression that is an object of the corresponding type converted according to the integer
- promotions. Their implementation-defined values shall be equal or greater in magnitude

- UCHAR_MAX.20) The value UCHAR_MAX shall equal 2CHAR_BIT - 1.
- Forward references: representations of types (6.2.6), conditional inclusion (6.10.1).
- 5.2.4.2.2 Characteristics of floating types <float.h>
-1 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.21) The following parameters are used to
- define the model for each floating-point type:
- s sign ((+-)1)
- b base or radix of exponent representation (an integer > 1)
- e exponent (an integer between a minimum emin and a maximum emax )
- p precision (the number of base-b digits in the significand)
- fk nonnegative integers less than b (the significand digits)
-2 A floating-point number (x) is defined by the following model:
- p
- x = sb e (Sum) f k b-k ,
- k=1
- emin <= e <= emax
-
-3 In addition to normalized floating-point numbers ( f 1 > 0 if x != 0), floating types may be
- able to contain other kinds of floating-point numbers, such as subnormal floating-point
- numbers (x != 0, e = emin , f 1 = 0) and unnormalized floating-point numbers (x != 0,
- e > emin , f 1 = 0), and values that are not floating-point numbers, such as infinities and
- NaNs. A NaN is an encoding signifying Not-a-Number. A quiet NaN propagates
- through almost every arithmetic operation without raising a floating-point exception; a
- signaling NaN generally raises a floating-point exception when occurring as an
-
-
- 20) See 6.2.5.
- 21) The floating-point model is intended to clarify the description of each floating-point characteristic and
- does not require the floating-point arithmetic of the implementation to be identical.
-
-[page 28]
-
- arithmetic operand.22)
-4 An implementation may give zero and values that are not floating-point numbers (such as
- infinities and NaNs) a sign or may leave them unsigned. Wherever such values are
- unsigned, any requirement in this International Standard to retrieve the sign shall produce
- an unspecified sign, and any requirement to set the sign shall be ignored.
-5 The minimum range of representable values for a floating type is the most negative finite
- floating-point number representable in that type through the most positive finite floating-
- point number representable in that type. In addition, if negative infinity is representable
- in a type, the range of that type is extended to all negative real numbers; likewise, if
- positive infinity is representable in a type, the range of that type is extended to all positive
- real numbers.
-6 The accuracy of the floating-point operations (+, -, *, /) and of the library functions in
- <math.h> and <complex.h> that return floating-point results is implementation-
- defined, as is the accuracy of the conversion between floating-point internal
- representations and string representations performed by the library functions in
- <stdio.h>, <stdlib.h>, and <wchar.h>. The implementation may state that the
- accuracy is unknown.
-7 All integer values in the <float.h> header, except FLT_ROUNDS, shall be constant
- expressions suitable for use in #if preprocessing directives; all floating values shall be
- constant expressions. All except DECIMAL_DIG, FLT_EVAL_METHOD, 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_EVAL_METHOD and
- FLT_ROUNDS.
-8 The rounding mode for floating-point addition is characterized by the implementation-
- defined value of FLT_ROUNDS:23)
- -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.
-
-
- 22) IEC 60559:1989 specifies quiet and signaling NaNs. For implementations that do not support
- IEC 60559:1989, the terms quiet NaN and signaling NaN are intended to apply to encodings with
- similar behavior.
- 23) Evaluation of FLT_ROUNDS correctly reflects any execution-time change of rounding mode through
- the function fesetround in <fenv.h>.
-
-[page 29]
-
-9 Except for assignment and cast (which remove all extra range and precision), the values
- yielded by operators with floating operands and values subject to the usual arithmetic
- conversions and of floating constants are evaluated to a format whose range and precision
- may be greater than required by the type. The use of evaluation formats is characterized
- by the implementation-defined value of FLT_EVAL_METHOD:24)
- -1 indeterminable;
- 0 evaluate all operations and constants just to the range and precision of the
- type;
- 1 evaluate operations and constants of type float and double to the
- range and precision of the double type, evaluate long double
- operations and constants to the range and precision of the long double
- type;
- 2 evaluate all operations and constants to the range and precision of the
- long double type.
- All other negative values for FLT_EVAL_METHOD characterize implementation-defined
- behavior.
-10 The presence or absence of subnormal numbers is characterized by the implementation-
- defined values of FLT_HAS_SUBNORM, DBL_HAS_SUBNORM, and
- LDBL_HAS_SUBNORM:
- -1 indeterminable25)
- 0 absent26) (type does not support subnormal numbers)
- 1 present (type does support subnormal numbers)
-11 The values given in the following list shall be replaced by constant expressions with
- implementation-defined values that are greater or equal in magnitude (absolute value) to
- those shown, with the same sign:
- -- radix of exponent representation, b
- FLT_RADIX 2
-
-
-
-
- 24) The evaluation method determines evaluation formats of expressions involving all floating types, not
- just real types. For example, if FLT_EVAL_METHOD is 1, then the product of two float
- _Complex operands is represented in the double _Complex format, and its parts are evaluated to

- 6. Language
- 6.1 Notation
-1 In the syntax notation used in this clause, syntactic categories (nonterminals) are
- indicated by italic type, and literal words and character set members (terminals) by bold
- type. A colon (:) following a nonterminal introduces its definition. Alternative
- definitions are listed on separate lines, except when prefaced by the words ''one of''. An
- optional symbol is indicated by the subscript ''opt'', so that
- { expressionopt }
- indicates an optional expression enclosed in braces.
-2 When syntactic categories are referred to in the main text, they are not italicized and
- words are separated by spaces instead of hyphens.
-3 A summary of the language syntax is given in annex A.
- 6.2 Concepts
- 6.2.1 Scopes of identifiers
-1 An identifier can denote an object; a function; a tag or a member of a structure, union, or
- enumeration; a typedef name; a label name; a macro name; or a macro parameter. The
- same identifier can denote different entities at different points in the program. 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.
-2 For each different entity that an identifier designates, the identifier is visible (i.e., can be
- used) only within a region of program text called its scope. Different entities designated
- by the same identifier either have different scopes, or are in different name spaces. 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.)
-3 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).
-4 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 end of the
- associated block. If the declarator or type specifier that declares the identifier appears
-
-[page 35]
-
- 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 identifier designates two different entities in the same name
- space, the scopes might overlap. If so, the scope of one entity (the inner scope) will end
- strictly before the scope of the other entity (the outer scope). Within the inner scope, the
- identifier designates the entity declared in the inner scope; the entity declared in the outer
- scope is hidden (and not visible) within the inner scope.
-5 Unless explicitly stated otherwise, where this International Standard uses the term
- ''identifier'' to refer to some entity (as opposed to the syntactic construct), it refers to the
- entity in the relevant name space whose declaration is visible at the point the identifier
- occurs.
-6 Two identifiers have the same scope if and only if their scopes terminate at the same
- point.
-7 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.
-8 As a special case, a type name (which is not a declaration of an identifier) is considered to
- have a scope that begins just after the place within the type name where the omitted
- identifier would appear were it not omitted.
- Forward references: declarations (6.7), function calls (6.5.2.2), function definitions
- (6.9.1), identifiers (6.4.2), macro replacement (6.10.3), name spaces of identifiers (6.2.3),
- source file inclusion (6.10.2), statements (6.8).
- 6.2.2 Linkages of identifiers
-1 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.29) There are
- three kinds of linkage: external, internal, and none.
-2 In the set of translation units and libraries that constitutes an entire program, each
- declaration of a particular identifier with external linkage denotes the same object or
- function. Within one translation unit, each declaration of an identifier with internal
- linkage denotes the same object or function. Each declaration of an identifier with no
- linkage denotes a unique entity.
-3 If the declaration of a file scope identifier for an object or a function contains the storage-
- class specifier static, the identifier has internal linkage.30)
-
-
-
- 29) There is no linkage between different identifiers.
-
-[page 36]
-
-4 For an identifier declared with the storage-class specifier extern in a scope in which a
- prior declaration of that identifier is visible,31) if the prior declaration specifies internal or
- external linkage, the linkage of the identifier at the later declaration is the same as the
- linkage specified at the prior declaration. If no prior declaration is visible, or if the prior
- declaration specifies no linkage, then the identifier has external linkage.
-5 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.
-6 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; a block scope
- identifier for an object declared without the storage-class specifier extern.
-7 If, within a translation unit, the same identifier appears with both internal and external
- linkage, the behavior is undefined.
- Forward references: declarations (6.7), expressions (6.5), external definitions (6.9),
- statements (6.8).
- 6.2.3 Name spaces of identifiers
-1 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 any32)
- 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: enumeration specifiers (6.7.2.2), labeled statements (6.8.1),
- structure and union specifiers (6.7.2.1), structure and union members (6.5.2.3), tags
- (6.7.2.3), the goto statement (6.8.6.1).
-
- 30) A function declaration can contain the storage-class specifier static only if it is at file scope; see
- 6.7.1.
- 31) As specified in 6.2.1, the later declaration might hide the prior declaration.
- 32) There is only one name space for tags even though three are possible.
-
-[page 37]
-
- 6.2.4 Storage durations of objects
-1 An object has a storage duration that determines its lifetime. There are four storage
- durations: static, thread, automatic, and allocated. Allocated storage is described in
- 7.22.3.
-2 The lifetime of an object is the portion of program execution during which storage is
- guaranteed to be reserved for it. An object exists, has a constant address,33) and retains
- its last-stored value throughout its lifetime.34) If an object is referred to outside of its
- lifetime, the behavior is undefined. The value of a pointer becomes indeterminate when
- the object it points to (or just past) reaches the end of its lifetime.
-3 An object whose identifier is declared without the storage-class specifier
- _Thread_local, and either with external or internal linkage or with the storage-class
- specifier static, has static storage duration. Its lifetime is the entire execution of the
- program and its stored value is initialized only once, prior to program startup.
-4 An object whose identifier is declared with the storage-class specifier _Thread_local
- has thread storage duration. Its lifetime is the entire execution of the thread for which it
- is created, and its stored value is initialized when the thread is started. There is a distinct
- object per thread, and use of the declared name in an expression refers to the object
- associated with the thread evaluating the expression. The result of attempting to
- indirectly access an object with thread storage duration from a thread other than the one
- with which the object is associated is implementation-defined.
-5 An object whose identifier is declared with no linkage and without the storage-class
- specifier static has automatic storage duration, as do some compound literals. The
- result of attempting to indirectly access an object with automatic storage duration from a
- thread other than the one with which the object is associated is implementation-defined.
-6 For such an object that does not have a variable length array type, its lifetime extends
- from entry into the block with which it is associated until execution of that block ends in
- any way. (Entering an enclosed block or calling a function suspends, but does not end,
- execution of the current block.) If the block is entered recursively, a new instance of the
- object is created each time. The initial value of the object is indeterminate. If an
- initialization is specified for the object, it is performed each time the declaration or
- compound literal is reached in the execution of the block; otherwise, the value becomes
- indeterminate each time the declaration is reached.
-
-
-
- 33) The term ''constant address'' means that two pointers to the object constructed at possibly different
- times will compare equal. The address may be different during two different executions of the same
- program.
- 34) In the case of a volatile object, the last store need not be explicit in the program.
-
-[page 38]
-
-7 For such an object that does have a variable length array type, its lifetime extends from
- the declaration of the object until execution of the program leaves the scope of the
- declaration.35) If the scope is entered recursively, a new instance of the object is created
- each time. The initial value of the object is indeterminate.
-8 A non-lvalue expression with structure or union type, where the structure or union
- contains a member with array type (including, recursively, members of all contained
- structures and unions) refers to an object with automatic storage duration and temporary
- lifetime.36) Its lifetime begins when the expression is evaluated and its initial value is the
- value of the expression. Its lifetime ends when the evaluation of the containing full
- expression or full declarator ends. Any attempt to modify an object with temporary
- lifetime results in undefined behavior.
- Forward references: array declarators (6.7.6.2), compound literals (6.5.2.5), declarators
- (6.7.6), function calls (6.5.2.2), initialization (6.7.9), statements (6.8).
- 6.2.5 Types
-1 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) and function types (types
- that describe functions). At various points within a translation unit an object type may be
- incomplete (lacking sufficient information to determine the size of objects of that type) or
- complete (having sufficient information).37)
-2 An object declared as type _Bool is large enough to store the values 0 and 1.
-3 An object declared as type char is large enough to store any member of the basic
- execution character set. If a member of the basic execution character set is stored in a
- char object, its value is guaranteed to be nonnegative. If any other character is stored in
- a char object, the resulting value is implementation-defined but shall be within the range
- of values that can be represented in that type.
-4 There are five standard signed integer types, designated as signed char, short
- int, int, long int, and long long int. (These and other types may be
- designated in several additional ways, as described in 6.7.2.) There may also be
- implementation-defined extended signed integer types.38) The standard and extended
- signed integer types are collectively called signed integer types.39)
-
- 35) Leaving the innermost block containing the declaration, or jumping to a point in that block or an
- embedded block prior to the declaration, leaves the scope of the declaration.
- 36) The address of such an object is taken implicitly when an array member is accessed.
- 37) A type may be incomplete or complete throughout an entire translation unit, or it may change states at
- different points within a translation unit.
-
-[page 39]
-
-5 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>).
-6 For each of the signed integer types, there is a corresponding (but different) unsigned
- integer type (designated with the keyword unsigned) that uses the same amount of
- storage (including sign information) and has the same alignment requirements. The type
- _Bool and the unsigned integer types that correspond to the standard signed integer
- types are the standard unsigned integer types. The unsigned integer types that
- correspond to the extended signed integer types are the extended unsigned integer types.
- The standard and extended unsigned integer types are collectively called unsigned integer
- types.40)
-7 The standard signed integer types and standard unsigned integer types are collectively
- called the standard integer types, the extended signed integer types and extended
- unsigned integer types are collectively called the extended integer types.
-8 For any two integer types with the same signedness and different integer conversion rank
- (see 6.3.1.1), the range of values of the type with smaller integer conversion rank is a
- subrange of the values of the other type.
-9 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.41) 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 type.
-10 There are three real floating types, designated as float, double, and long
- double.42) 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.
-
-
- 38) Implementation-defined keywords shall have the form of an identifier reserved for any use as
- described in 7.1.3.
- 39) Therefore, any statement in this Standard about signed integer types also applies to the extended
- signed integer types.
- 40) Therefore, any statement in this Standard about unsigned integer types also applies to the extended
- unsigned integer types.
- 41) The same representation and alignment requirements are meant to imply interchangeability as
- arguments to functions, return values from functions, and members of unions.
- 42) See ''future language directions'' (6.11.1).
-
-[page 40]
-
-11 There are three complex types, designated as float _Complex, double
- _Complex, and long double _Complex.43) (Complex types are a conditional
- feature that implementations need not support; see 6.10.8.3.) The real floating and
- complex types are collectively called the floating types.
-12 For each floating type there is a corresponding real type, which is always a real floating
- type. For real floating types, it is the same type. For complex types, it is the type given
- by deleting the keyword _Complex from the type name.
-13 Each complex type has the same representation and alignment requirements as an array
- type containing exactly two elements of the corresponding real type; the first element is
- equal to the real part, and the second element to the imaginary part, of the complex
- number.
-14 The type char, the signed and unsigned integer types, and the floating types are
- collectively called the basic types. The basic types are complete object types. Even if the
- implementation defines two or more basic types to have the same representation, they are
- nevertheless different types.44)
-15 The three types char, signed char, and unsigned char are collectively called
- the character types. The implementation shall define char to have the same range,
- representation, and behavior as either signed char or unsigned char.45)
-16 An enumeration comprises a set of named integer constant values. Each distinct
- enumeration constitutes a different enumerated type.
-17 The type char, the signed and unsigned integer types, and the enumerated types are
- collectively called integer types. The integer and real floating types are collectively called
- real types.
-18 Integer and floating types are collectively called arithmetic types. Each arithmetic type
- belongs to one type domain: the real type domain comprises the real types, the complex
- type domain comprises the complex types.
-19 The void type comprises an empty set of values; it is an incomplete object type that
- cannot be completed.
-
-
-
- 43) A specification for imaginary types is in annex G.
- 44) An implementation may define new keywords that provide alternative ways to designate a basic (or
- any other) type; this does not violate the requirement that all basic types be different.
- Implementation-defined keywords shall have the form of an identifier reserved for any use as
- described in 7.1.3.
- 45) CHAR_MIN, defined in <limits.h>, will have one of the values 0 or SCHAR_MIN, and this can be
- used to distinguish the two options. Irrespective of the choice made, char is a separate type from the
- other two and is not compatible with either.
-
-[page 41]
-
-20 Any number of derived types can be constructed from the object and function types, as
- follows:
- -- An array type describes a contiguously allocated nonempty set of objects with a
- particular member object type, called the element type. The element type shall be
- complete whenever the array type is specified. Array types are characterized by their
- element type and by the number of elements in 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 nonempty set of member objects
- (and, in certain circumstances, an incomplete array), each of which has an optionally
- specified name and possibly distinct type.
- -- A union type describes an overlapping nonempty 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 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 or an object 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''. A pointer type is a complete
- object type.
- -- An atomic type describes the type designated by the construct _Atomic ( type-
- name ). (Atomic types are a conditional feature that implementations need not
- support; see 6.10.8.3.)
- These methods of constructing derived types can be applied recursively.
-21 Arithmetic types and pointer types are collectively called scalar types. Array and
- structure types are collectively called aggregate types.46)
-22 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 6.7.2.3) is an incomplete
-
-
- 46) Note that aggregate type does not include union type because an object with union type can only
- contain one member at a time.
-
-[page 42]
-
- 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.
-23 A type has known constant size if the type is not incomplete and is not a variable length
- array type.
-24 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-type, a function-type, or a pointer-type derivation to
- T.
-25 A type is characterized by its type category, which is either the outermost derivation of a
- derived type (as noted above in the construction of derived types), or the type itself if the
- type consists of no derived types.
-26 Any type so far mentioned is an unqualified type. Each unqualified type has several
- qualified versions of its type,47) corresponding to the combinations of one, two, or all
- three of the const, volatile, and restrict qualifiers. The qualified or unqualified
- versions of a type are distinct types that belong to the same type category and have the
- same representation and alignment requirements.48) A derived type is not qualified by the
- qualifiers (if any) of the type from which it is derived.
-27 Further, there is the _Atomic qualifier. The presence of the _Atomic qualifier
- designates an atomic type. The size, representation, and alignment of an atomic type
- need not be the same as those of the corresponding unqualified type. Therefore, this
- Standard explicitly uses the phrase ''atomic, qualified or unqualified type'' whenever the
- atomic version of a type is permitted along with the other qualified versions of a type.
- The phrase ''qualified or unqualified type'', without specific mention of atomic, does not
- include the atomic types.
-28 A pointer to void shall have the same representation and alignment requirements as a
- pointer to a character type.48) Similarly, pointers to qualified or unqualified versions of
- compatible types shall have the same representation and alignment requirements. All
- pointers to structure types shall have the same representation and alignment requirements
- as each other. All pointers to union types shall have the same representation and
- alignment requirements as each other. Pointers to other types need not have the same
- representation or alignment requirements.
-29 EXAMPLE 1 The type designated as ''float *'' has type ''pointer to float''. Its type category is
- pointer, 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 -- its type is ''pointer to const-

- arguments to functions, return values from functions, and members of unions.

- qualified float'' and is a pointer to a qualified type.
-
-30 EXAMPLE 2 The type designated as ''struct tag (*[5])(float)'' has type ''array of pointer to
- function returning struct tag''. The array has length five and the function has a single parameter of type
- float. Its type category is array.

- 6.2.6 Representations of types
- 6.2.6.1 General
-1 The representations of all types are unspecified except as stated in this subclause.
-2 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.
-3 Values stored in unsigned bit-fields and objects of type unsigned char shall be
- represented using a pure binary notation.49)
-4 Values stored in non-bit-field objects of any other object type consist of n x CHAR_BIT
- bits, where n is the size of an object of that type, in bytes. The value may be copied into
- an object of type unsigned char [n] (e.g., by memcpy); the resulting set of bytes is
- called the object representation of the value. Values stored in bit-fields consist of m bits,
- where m is the size specified for the bit-field. The object representation is the set of m
- bits the bit-field comprises in the addressable storage unit holding it. Two values (other
- than NaNs) with the same object representation compare equal, but values that compare
- equal may have different object representations.
-5 Certain object representations need not represent a value of the object type. If the stored
- value of an object has such a representation and is read by an lvalue expression that does
- not have character type, the behavior is undefined. If such a representation is produced
- by a side effect that modifies all or any part of the object by an lvalue expression that
- does not have character type, the behavior is undefined.50) Such a representation is called
- a trap representation.
-6 When a value is stored in an object of structure or union type, including in a member
- object, the bytes of the object representation that correspond to any padding bytes take
- unspecified values.51) The value of a structure or union object is never a trap
-
-
- 49) 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. (Adapted from the American National
- Dictionary for Information Processing Systems.) A byte contains CHAR_BIT bits, and the values of
- type unsigned char range from 0 to 2
- CHAR_BIT
- - 1.
- 50) Thus, an automatic variable can be initialized to a trap representation without causing undefined
- behavior, but the value of the variable cannot be used until a proper value is stored in it.
-
-[page 44]
-
- representation, even though the value of a member of the structure or union object may be
- a trap representation.
-7 When a value is stored in a member of an object of union type, the bytes of the object
- representation that do not correspond to that member but do correspond to other members
- take unspecified values.
-8 Where an operator is applied to a value that has more than one object representation,
- which object representation is used shall not affect the value of the result.52) Where a
- value is stored in an object using a type that has more than one object representation for
- that value, it is unspecified which representation is used, but a trap representation shall
- not be generated.
-9 Loads and stores of objects with atomic types are done with
- memory_order_seq_cst semantics.
- Forward references: declarations (6.7), expressions (6.5), lvalues, arrays, and function
- designators (6.3.2.1), order and consistency (7.17.3).
- 6.2.6.2 Integer types
-1 For unsigned integer types other than unsigned char, the bits of the object
- representation shall be divided into two groups: value bits and padding bits (there need
- not be any of the latter). If there are N value bits, each bit shall represent a different
- power of 2 between 1 and 2 N -1 , so that objects of that type shall be capable of
- representing values from 0 to 2 N - 1 using a pure binary representation; this shall be
- known as the value representation. The values of any padding bits are unspecified.53)
-2 For signed integer types, the bits of the object representation shall be divided into three
- groups: value bits, padding bits, and the sign bit. There need not be any padding bits;
- signed char shall not have any padding bits. There shall be exactly one sign bit.
- Each bit that is a value bit shall have the same value as the same bit in the object
- representation of the corresponding unsigned type (if there are M value bits in the signed
- type and N in the unsigned type, then M <= N ). If the sign bit is zero, it shall not affect
-
- 51) Thus, for example, structure assignment need not copy any padding bits.
- 52) It is possible for objects x and y with the same effective type T to have the same value when they are
- accessed as objects of type T, but to have different values in other contexts. In particular, if == is
- defined for type T, then x == y does not imply that memcmp(&x, &y, sizeof (T)) == 0.
- Furthermore, x == y does not necessarily imply that x and y have the same value; other operations
- on values of type T may distinguish between them.
- 53) Some combinations of padding bits might generate trap representations, for example, if one padding
- bit is a parity bit. Regardless, no arithmetic operation on valid values can generate a trap
- representation other than as part of an exceptional condition such as an overflow, and this cannot occur
- with unsigned types. All other combinations of padding bits are alternative object representations of
- the value specified by the value bits.
-
-[page 45]
-
- the resulting value. If the sign bit is one, the value shall be modified in one of the
- following ways:
- -- the corresponding value with sign bit 0 is negated (sign and magnitude);
- -- the sign bit has the value -(2 M ) (two's complement);
- -- the sign bit has the value -(2 M - 1) (ones' complement).
- Which of these applies is implementation-defined, as is whether the value with sign bit 1
- and all value bits zero (for the first two), or with sign bit and all value bits 1 (for ones'
- complement), is a trap representation or a normal value. In the case of sign and
- magnitude and ones' complement, if this representation is a normal value it is called a
- negative zero.
-3 If the implementation supports negative zeros, they shall be generated only by:
- -- the &, |, ^, ~, <<, and >> operators with operands that produce such a value;
- -- the +, -, *, /, and % operators where one operand is a negative zero and the result is
- zero;
- -- compound assignment operators based on the above cases.
- It is unspecified whether these cases actually generate a negative zero or a normal zero,
- and whether a negative zero becomes a normal zero when stored in an object.
-4 If the implementation does not support negative zeros, the behavior of the &, |, ^, ~, <<,
- and >> operators with operands that would produce such a value is undefined.
-5 The values of any padding bits are unspecified.54) A valid (non-trap) object representation
- of a signed integer type where the sign bit is zero is a valid object representation of the
- corresponding unsigned type, and shall represent the same value. For any integer type,
- the object representation where all the bits are zero shall be a representation of the value
- zero in that type.
-6 The precision of an integer type is the number of bits it uses to represent values,
- excluding any sign and padding bits. The width of an integer type is the same but
- including any sign bit; thus for unsigned integer types the two values are the same, while
- for signed integer types the width is one greater than the precision.
-
-
-
-
- 54) Some combinations of padding bits might generate trap representations, for example, if one padding
- bit is a parity bit. Regardless, no arithmetic operation on valid values can generate a trap
- representation other than as part of an exceptional condition such as an overflow. All other
- combinations of padding bits are alternative object representations of the value specified by the value
- bits.
-
-[page 46]
-
- 6.2.7 Compatible type and composite type
-1 Two types have compatible type if their types are the same. Additional rules for
- determining whether two types are compatible are described in 6.7.2 for type specifiers,
- in 6.7.3 for type qualifiers, and in 6.7.6 for declarators.55) Moreover, two structure,
- union, or enumerated types declared in separate translation units are compatible if their
- tags and members satisfy the following requirements: If one is declared with a tag, the
- other shall be declared with the same tag. If both are completed anywhere within their
- respective translation units, then the following additional requirements apply: there shall
- be a one-to-one correspondence between their members such that each pair of
- corresponding members are declared with compatible types; if one member of the pair is
- declared with an alignment specifier, the other is declared with an equivalent alignment
- specifier; and if one member of the pair is declared with a name, the other is declared
- with the same name. For two structures, corresponding members shall be declared in the
- same order. For two structures or unions, corresponding bit-fields shall have the same
- widths. For two enumerations, corresponding members shall have the same values.
-2 All declarations that refer to the same object or function shall have compatible type;
- otherwise, the behavior is undefined.
-3 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 satisfies the following conditions:
- -- If both types are array types, the following rules are applied:
- o If one type is an array of known constant size, the composite type is an array of
- that size.
- o Otherwise, if one type is a variable length array whose size is specified by an
- expression that is not evaluated, the behavior is undefined.
- o Otherwise, if one type is a variable length array whose size is specified, the
- composite type is a variable length array of that size.
- o Otherwise, if one type is a variable length array of unspecified size, the composite
- type is a variable length array of unspecified size.
- o Otherwise, both types are arrays of unknown size and the composite type is an
- array of unknown size.
- The element type of the composite type is the composite type of the two element
- types.
- -- 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.
-
-
- 55) Two types need not be identical to be compatible.
-
-[page 47]
-
- -- If both types are function types with 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.
-4 For an identifier with internal or external linkage declared in a scope in which a prior
- declaration of that identifier is visible,56) if the prior declaration specifies internal or
- external linkage, the type of the identifier at the later declaration becomes the composite
- type.
- Forward references: array declarators (6.7.6.2).
-5 EXAMPLE Given the following two file scope declarations:
- int f(int (*)(), double (*)[3]);
- int f(int (*)(char *), double (*)[]);
- The resulting composite type for the function is:
- int f(int (*)(char *), double (*)[3]);
-
- 6.2.8 Alignment of objects
-1 Complete object types have alignment requirements which place restrictions on the
- addresses at which objects of that type may be allocated. An alignment is an
- implementation-defined integer value representing the number of bytes between
- successive addresses at which a given object can be allocated. An object type imposes an
- alignment requirement on every object of that type: stricter alignment can be requested
- using the _Alignas keyword.
-2 A fundamental alignment is represented by an alignment less than or equal to the greatest
- alignment supported by the implementation in all contexts, which is equal to
- alignof(max_align_t).
-3 An extended alignment is represented by an alignment greater than
- alignof(max_align_t). It is implementation-defined whether any extended
- alignments are supported and the contexts in which they are supported. A type having an
- extended alignment requirement is an over-aligned type.57)
-4 Alignments are represented as values of the type size_t. Valid alignments include only
- those values returned by an alignof expression for fundamental types, plus an
- additional implementation-defined set of values, which may be empty. Every valid
- alignment value shall be a nonnegative integral power of two.
-
-
- 56) As specified in 6.2.1, the later declaration might hide the prior declaration.
- 57) Every over-aligned type is, or contains, a structure or union type with a member to which an extended
- alignment has been applied.
-
-[page 48]
-
-5 Alignments have an order from weaker to stronger or stricter alignments. Stricter
- alignments have larger alignment values. An address that satisfies an alignment
- requirement also satisfies any weaker valid alignment requirement.
-6 The alignment requirement of a complete type can be queried using an alignof
- expression. The types char, signed char, and unsigned char shall have the
- weakest alignment requirement.
-7 Comparing alignments is meaningful and provides the obvious results:
- -- Two alignments are equal when their numeric values are equal.
- -- Two alignments are different when their numeric values are not equal.
- -- When an alignment is larger than another it represents a stricter alignment.
-

-
- 6.3 Conversions
-1 Several operators convert operand values from one type to another automatically. This
- subclause specifies the result required from such an implicit conversion, as well as those
- that result from a cast operation (an explicit conversion). The list in 6.3.1.8 summarizes
- the conversions performed by most ordinary operators; it is supplemented as required by
- the discussion of each operator in 6.5.
-2 Conversion of an operand value to a compatible type causes no change to the value or the
- representation.
- Forward references: cast operators (6.5.4).
- 6.3.1 Arithmetic operands
- 6.3.1.1 Boolean, characters, and integers
-1 Every integer type has an integer conversion rank defined as follows:
- -- No two signed integer types shall have the same rank, even if they have the same
- representation.
- -- The rank of a signed integer type shall be greater than the rank of any signed integer
- type with less precision.
- -- The rank of long long int shall be greater than the rank of long int, which
- shall be greater than the rank of int, which shall be greater than the rank of short
- int, which shall be greater than the rank of signed char.
- -- The rank of any unsigned integer type shall equal the rank of the corresponding
- signed integer type, if any.
- -- The rank of any standard integer type shall be greater than the rank of any extended
- integer type with the same width.
- -- The rank of char shall equal the rank of signed char and unsigned char.
- -- The rank of _Bool shall be less than the rank of all other standard integer types.
- -- The rank of any enumerated type shall equal the rank of the compatible integer type
- (see 6.7.2.2).
- -- The rank of any extended signed integer type relative to another extended signed
- integer type with the same precision is implementation-defined, but still subject to the
- other rules for determining the integer conversion rank.
- -- For all integer types T1, T2, and T3, if T1 has greater rank than T2 and T2 has
- greater rank than T3, then T1 has greater rank than T3.
-2 The following may be used in an expression wherever an int or unsigned int may
- be used:
-
-[page 50]
-
- -- An object or expression with an integer type (other than int or unsigned int)
- whose integer conversion rank is less than or equal to the rank of int and
- unsigned int.
- -- A bit-field of type _Bool, int, signed int, or unsigned int.
- If an int can represent all values of the original type (as restricted by the width, for a
- bit-field), the value is converted to an int; otherwise, it is converted to an unsigned
- int. These are called the integer promotions.58) All other types are unchanged by the
- integer promotions.
-3 The integer promotions preserve value including sign. As discussed earlier, whether a
- ''plain'' char is treated as signed is implementation-defined.
- Forward references: enumeration specifiers (6.7.2.2), structure and union specifiers
- (6.7.2.1).
- 6.3.1.2 Boolean type
-1 When any scalar value is converted to _Bool, the result is 0 if the value compares equal
- to 0; otherwise, the result is 1.59)
- 6.3.1.3 Signed and unsigned integers
-1 When a value with integer type is converted to another integer type other than _Bool, if
- the value can be represented by the new type, it is unchanged.
-2 Otherwise, if the new type is unsigned, the value is converted by repeatedly adding or
- subtracting one more than the maximum value that can be represented in the new type
- until the value is in the range of the new type.60)
-3 Otherwise, the new type is signed and the value cannot be represented in it; either the
- result is implementation-defined or an implementation-defined signal is raised.
- 6.3.1.4 Real floating and integer
-1 When a finite value of real floating type is converted to an integer type other than _Bool,
- the fractional part is discarded (i.e., the value is truncated toward zero). If the value of
- the integral part cannot be represented by the integer type, the behavior is undefined.61)
-
-
- 58) The integer promotions are applied only: as part of the usual arithmetic conversions, to certain
- argument expressions, to the operands of the unary +, -, and ~ operators, and to both operands of the
- shift operators, as specified by their respective subclauses.
- 59) NaNs do not compare equal to 0 and thus convert to 1.
- 60) The rules describe arithmetic on the mathematical value, not the value of a given type of expression.
- 61) The remaindering operation performed when a value of integer type is converted to unsigned type
- need not be performed when a value of real floating type is converted to unsigned type. Thus, the
- range of portable real floating values is (-1, Utype_MAX+1).
-
-[page 51]
-
-2 When a value of integer type is converted to a real floating type, if the value being
- converted can be represented exactly in the new type, it is unchanged. 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 representable value, chosen
- in an implementation-defined manner. If the value being converted is outside the range of
- values that can be represented, the behavior is undefined. Results of some implicit
- conversions (6.3.1.8, 6.8.6.4) may be represented in greater precision and range than that
- required by the new type.
- 6.3.1.5 Real floating types
-1 When a value of real floating type is converted to a real floating type, if the value being
- converted can be represented exactly in the new type, it is unchanged. 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 representable value, chosen
- in an implementation-defined manner. If the value being converted is outside the range of
- values that can be represented, the behavior is undefined. Results of some implicit
- conversions (6.3.1.8, 6.8.6.4) may be represented in greater precision and range than that
- required by the new type.
- 6.3.1.6 Complex types
-1 When a value of complex type is converted to another complex type, both the real and
- imaginary parts follow the conversion rules for the corresponding real types.
- 6.3.1.7 Real and complex
-1 When a value of real type is converted to a complex type, the real part of the complex
- result value is determined by the rules of conversion to the corresponding real type and
- the imaginary part of the complex result value is a positive zero or an unsigned zero.
-2 When a value of complex type is converted to a real type, the imaginary part of the
- complex value is discarded and the value of the real part is converted according to the
- conversion rules for the corresponding real type.
- 6.3.1.8 Usual arithmetic conversions
-1 Many operators that expect operands of arithmetic type cause conversions and yield result
- types in a similar way. The purpose is to determine a common real type for the operands
- and result. For the specified operands, each operand is converted, without change of type
- domain, to a type whose corresponding real type is the common real type. Unless
- explicitly stated otherwise, the common real type is also the corresponding real type of
- the result, whose type domain is the type domain of the operands if they are the same,
- and complex otherwise. This pattern is called the usual arithmetic conversions:
- First, if the corresponding real type of either operand is long double, the other
- operand is converted, without change of type domain, to a type whose
-
-[page 52]
-
- corresponding real type is long double.
- Otherwise, if the corresponding real type of either operand is double, the other
- operand is converted, without change of type domain, to a type whose
- corresponding real type is double.
- Otherwise, if the corresponding real type of either operand is float, the other
- operand is converted, without change of type domain, to a type whose
- corresponding real type is float.62)
- Otherwise, the integer promotions are performed on both operands. Then the
- following rules are applied to the promoted operands:
- If both operands have the same type, then no further conversion is needed.
- Otherwise, if both operands have signed integer types or both have unsigned
- integer types, the operand with the type of lesser integer conversion rank is
- converted to the type of the operand with greater rank.
- Otherwise, if the operand that has unsigned integer type has rank greater or
- equal to the rank of the type of the other operand, then the operand with
- signed integer type is converted to the type of the operand with unsigned
- integer type.
- Otherwise, if the type of the operand with signed integer type can represent
- all of the values of the type of the operand with unsigned integer type, then
- the operand with unsigned integer type is converted to the type of the
- operand with signed integer type.
- Otherwise, both operands are converted to the unsigned integer type
- corresponding to the type of the operand with signed integer type.
-2 The values of floating operands and of the results of floating expressions may be
- represented in greater precision and range than that required by the type; the types are not
- changed thereby.63)
-
-
-
-
- 62) For example, addition of a double _Complex and a float entails just the conversion of the
- float operand to double (and yields a double _Complex result).
- 63) The cast and assignment operators are still required to remove extra range and precision.
-
-[page 53]
-
- 6.3.2 Other operands
- 6.3.2.1 Lvalues, arrays, and function designators
-1 An lvalue is an expression (with an object type other than void) that potentially
- designates an object;64) if an lvalue does not designate an object when it is evaluated, the
- behavior is undefined. 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 or element of all contained aggregates or unions) with a const-
- qualified type.
-2 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); this is called lvalue conversion. If the lvalue has
- qualified type, the value has the unqualified version of the type of the lvalue; additionally,
- if the lvalue has atomic type, the value has the non-atomic version of the type of the
- lvalue; otherwise, the value has the type of the lvalue. If the lvalue has an incomplete
- type and does not have array type, the behavior is undefined. If the lvalue designates an
- object of automatic storage duration that could have been declared with the register
- storage class (never had its address taken), and that object is uninitialized (not declared
- with an initializer and no assignment to it has been performed prior to use), the behavior
- is undefined.
-3 Except when it is the operand of the sizeof operator or the unary & operator, or is a
- string literal used to initialize an array, an expression that has type ''array of type'' is
- converted to an expression with type ''pointer to type'' that points to the initial element of
- the array object and is not an lvalue. If the array object has register storage class, the
- behavior is undefined.
-4 A function designator is an expression that has function type. Except when it is the
- operand of the sizeof operator65) or the unary & operator, a function designator with
- type ''function returning type'' is converted to an expression that has type ''pointer to
-
-
- 64) The name ''lvalue'' comes originally from the assignment expression E1 = E2, in which the left
- operand E1 is required to be a (modifiable) lvalue. It is perhaps better considered as representing an
- object ''locator value''. What is sometimes called ''rvalue'' is in this International 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.
- 65) Because this conversion does not occur, the operand of the sizeof operator remains a function
- designator and violates the constraint in 6.5.3.4.

- increment and decrement operators (6.5.2.4), prefix increment and decrement operators
- (6.5.3.1), the sizeof operator (6.5.3.4), structure and union members (6.5.2.3).
- 6.3.2.2 void
-1 The (nonexistent) value of a void expression (an expression that has type void) shall not
- be used in any way, and implicit or explicit conversions (except to void) shall not be
- applied to such an expression. If an expression of any other type is evaluated as a void
- expression, its value or designator is discarded. (A void expression is evaluated for its
- side effects.)
- 6.3.2.3 Pointers
-1 A pointer to void may be converted to or from a pointer to any object type. A pointer to
- any object type may be converted to a pointer to void and back again; the result shall
- compare equal to the original pointer.
-2 For any qualifier q, a pointer to a non-q-qualified type may be converted to a pointer to
- the q-qualified version of the type; the values stored in the original and converted pointers
- shall compare equal.
-3 An integer constant expression with the value 0, or such an expression cast to type
- void *, is called a null pointer constant.66) If a null pointer constant is converted to a
- pointer type, the resulting pointer, called a null pointer, is guaranteed to compare unequal
- to a pointer to any object or function.
-4 Conversion of a null pointer to another pointer type yields a null pointer of that type.
- Any two null pointers shall compare equal.
-5 An integer may be converted to any pointer type. Except as previously specified, the
- result is implementation-defined, might not be correctly aligned, might not point to an
- entity of the referenced type, and might be a trap representation.67)
-6 Any pointer type may be converted to an integer type. Except as previously specified, the
- result is implementation-defined. If the result cannot be represented in the integer type,
- the behavior is undefined. The result need not be in the range of values of any integer
- type.
-
-
-
-
- 66) The macro NULL is defined in <stddef.h> (and other headers) as a null pointer constant; see 7.19.
- 67) 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.
-
-[page 55]
-
-7 A pointer to an object type may be converted to a pointer to a different object type. If the
- resulting pointer is not correctly aligned68) for the referenced type, the behavior is
- undefined. Otherwise, when converted back again, the result shall compare equal to the
- original pointer. When a pointer to an object is converted to a pointer to a character type,
- the result points to the lowest addressed byte of the object. Successive increments of the
- result, up to the size of the object, yield pointers to the remaining bytes of the object.
-8 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 whose type is not compatible with the referenced type,
- the behavior is undefined.

-
- 68) In general, the concept ''correctly aligned'' is transitive: if a pointer to type A is correctly aligned for a
- pointer to type B, which in turn is correctly aligned for a pointer to type C, then a pointer to type A is
- correctly aligned for a pointer to type C.

- 6.4 Lexical elements
- Syntax
-1 token:
- keyword
- identifier
- constant
- string-literal
- punctuator
- preprocessing-token:
- header-name
- identifier
- pp-number
- character-constant
- string-literal
- punctuator
- each non-white-space character that cannot be one of the above
- Constraints
-2 Each preprocessing token that is converted to a token shall have the lexical form of a
- keyword, an identifier, a constant, a string literal, or a punctuator.
- Semantics
-3 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, and punctuators.
- A preprocessing token is the minimal lexical element of the language in translation
- phases 3 through 6. The categories of preprocessing tokens are: header names,
- identifiers, preprocessing numbers, character constants, string literals, punctuators, and
- single non-white-space characters that do not lexically match the other preprocessing
- token categories.69) If a ' or a " character matches the last category, the behavior is
- undefined. Preprocessing tokens can be separated by white space; this consists of
- comments (described later), or white-space characters (space, horizontal tab, new-line,
- vertical tab, and form-feed), or both. As described in 6.10, 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.
-
-
-
- 69) An additional category, placemarkers, is used internally in translation phase 4 (see 6.10.3.3); it cannot
- occur in source files.
-
-[page 57]
-
-4 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. There is one exception to this rule: header name preprocessing
- tokens are recognized only within #include preprocessing directives and in
- implementation-defined locations within #pragma directives. In such contexts, a
- sequence of characters that could be either a header name or a string literal is recognized
- as the former.
-5 EXAMPLE 1 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.
-
-6 EXAMPLE 2 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.

- Forward references: character constants (6.4.4.4), comments (6.4.9), expressions (6.5),

- (6.5.3.1), preprocessing directives (6.10), preprocessing numbers (6.4.8), string literals

- Semantics
-2 The above tokens (case sensitive) are reserved (in translation phases 7 and 8) for use as
- keywords, and shall not be used otherwise. The keyword _Imaginary is reserved for

- 6.4.2 Identifiers
- 6.4.2.1 General
- Syntax
-1 identifier:

- universal-character-name
- other implementation-defined characters
- nondigit: one of
- _ 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
- 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
- digit: one of
- 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
- Semantics
-2 An identifier is a sequence of nondigit characters (including the underscore _, the
- lowercase and uppercase Latin letters, and other characters) and digits, which designates
- one or more entities as described in 6.2.1. Lowercase and uppercase letters are distinct.
- There is no specific limit on the maximum length of an identifier.
-3 Each universal character name in an identifier shall designate a character whose encoding
- in ISO/IEC 10646 falls into one of the ranges specified in D.1.71) The initial character
- shall not be a universal character name designating a character whose encoding falls into
- one of the ranges specified in D.2. An implementation may allow multibyte characters
- that are not part of the basic source character set to appear in identifiers; which characters
- and their correspondence to universal character names is implementation-defined.
-
-
-
- 70) One possible specification for imaginary types appears in annex G.
- 71) On systems in which linkers cannot accept extended characters, an encoding of the universal character
- name may be used in forming valid external identifiers. For example, some otherwise unused
- character or sequence of characters may be used to encode the \u in a universal character name.
- Extended characters may produce a long external identifier.
-
-[page 59]
-
-4 When preprocessing tokens are converted to tokens during translation phase 7, if a
- preprocessing token could be converted to either a keyword or an identifier, it is converted
- to a keyword.
- Implementation limits
-5 As discussed in 5.2.4.1, an implementation may limit the number of significant initial
- characters in an identifier; the limit for an external name (an identifier that has external
- linkage) may be more restrictive than that for an internal name (a macro name or an
- identifier that does not have external linkage). The number of significant characters in an
- identifier is implementation-defined.
-6 Any identifiers that differ in a significant character are different identifiers. If two
- identifiers differ only in nonsignificant characters, the behavior is undefined.
- Forward references: universal character names (6.4.3), macro replacement (6.10.3).
- 6.4.2.2 Predefined identifiers
- Semantics
-1 The identifier __func__ shall be implicitly declared by the translator as if,
- immediately following the opening brace of each function definition, the declaration
- static const char __func__[] = "function-name";
- appeared, where function-name is the name of the lexically-enclosing function.72)
-2 This name is encoded as if the implicit declaration had been written in the source
- character set and then translated into the execution character set as indicated in translation
- phase 5.
-3 EXAMPLE Consider the code fragment:
- #include <stdio.h>
- void myfunc(void)
- {
- printf("%s\n", __func__);
- /* ... */
- }
- Each time the function is called, it will print to the standard output stream:
- myfunc
-
- Forward references: function definitions (6.9.1).
-
-
-
-
- 72) Since the name __func__ is reserved for any use by the implementation (7.1.3), if any other
- identifier is explicitly declared using the name __func__, the behavior is undefined.

- 00A0 other than 0024 ($), 0040 (@), or 0060 ('), nor one in the range D800 through

- Description
-3 Universal character names may be used in identifiers, character constants, and string
- literals to designate characters that are not in the basic character set.
- Semantics
-4 The universal character name \Unnnnnnnn designates the character whose eight-digit
- short identifier (as specified by ISO/IEC 10646) is nnnnnnnn.74) Similarly, the universal
- character name \unnnn designates the character whose four-digit short identifier is nnnn
- (and whose eight-digit short identifier is 0000nnnn).
-

- Description
-2 A floating constant has a significand part that may be followed by an exponent part and a
- suffix that specifies its type. The components of the significand 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, E, p, or P followed by an exponent consisting of an optionally signed digit sequence.
- Either the whole-number part or the fraction part has to be present; for decimal floating
- constants, either the period or the exponent part has to be present.
- Semantics
-3 The significand part is interpreted as a (decimal or hexadecimal) rational number; the
- digit sequence in the exponent part is interpreted as a decimal integer. For decimal
- floating constants, the exponent indicates the power of 10 by which the significand part is
- to be scaled. For hexadecimal floating constants, the exponent indicates the power of 2
- by which the significand part is to be scaled. For decimal floating constants, and also for
- hexadecimal floating constants when FLT_RADIX is not a power of 2, the result is either
- the nearest representable value, or the larger or smaller representable value immediately
- adjacent to the nearest representable value, chosen in an implementation-defined manner.
- For hexadecimal floating constants when FLT_RADIX is a power of 2, the result is
- correctly rounded.
-4 An unsuffixed floating constant has type double. If suffixed by the letter f or F, it has
- type float. If suffixed by the letter l or L, it has type long double.
-5 Floating constants are converted to internal format as if at translation-time. The
- conversion of a floating constant shall not raise an exceptional condition or a floating-
- point exception at execution time. All floating constants of the same source form75) shall
- convert to the same internal format with the same value.
- Recommended practice
-6 The implementation should produce a diagnostic message if a hexadecimal constant
- cannot be represented exactly in its evaluation format; the implementation should then
- proceed with the translation of the program.
-7 The translation-time conversion of floating constants should match the execution-time
- conversion of character strings by library functions, such as strtod, given matching
- inputs suitable for both conversions, the same result format, and default execution-time
- rounding.76)
-
- 75) 1.23, 1.230, 123e-2, 123e-02, and 1.23L are all different source forms and thus need not
- convert to the same internal format and value.
- 76) The specification for the library functions recommends more accurate conversion than required for
- floating constants (see 7.22.1.3).

- Description
-2 An integer character constant is a sequence of one or more multibyte characters enclosed
- in single-quotes, as in 'x'. A wide character constant is the same, except prefixed by the
- letter L, u, or U. 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.
-3 The single-quote ', the double-quote ", the question-mark ?, the backslash \, and
- arbitrary integer values are representable according to the following table of escape
- sequences:
- single quote ' \'
- double quote " \"
- question mark ? \?
- backslash \ \\
- octal character \octal digits
- hexadecimal character \x hexadecimal digits
-4 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 \\.
-5 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 or wide character.
-6 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 or wide character.
-7 Each octal or hexadecimal escape sequence is the longest sequence of characters that can
- constitute the escape sequence.
-8 In addition, characters not in the basic character set are representable by universal
- character names and certain nongraphic characters are representable by escape sequences
- consisting of the backslash \ followed by a lowercase letter: \a, \b, \f, \n, \r, \t,
- and \v.77)

-[page 68]
-

-9 The value of an octal or hexadecimal escape sequence shall be in the range of
- representable values for the corresponding type:
- Prefix Corresponding Type
- none unsigned char
- L the unsigned type corresponding to wchar_t
- u char16_t
- U char32_t
- Semantics
-10 An integer character constant has type int. The value of an integer character constant
- containing a single character that maps to a single-byte execution character 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 (e.g.,
- 'ab'), or containing a character or escape sequence that does not map to a single-byte
- execution character, is implementation-defined. If an integer character constant contains
- a single character or escape sequence, its value is the one that results when an object with
- type char whose value is that of the single character or escape sequence is converted to
- type int.
-11 A wide character constant prefixed by the letter L has type wchar_t, an integer type
- defined in the <stddef.h> header; a wide character constant prefixed by the letter u or
- U has type char16_t or char32_t, respectively, unsigned integer types defined in the
- <uchar.h> header. The value of a wide character constant containing a single
- multibyte character that maps to a single member of the extended execution character set
- is the wide character corresponding to that multibyte character, as defined by the
- mbtowc, mbrtoc16, or mbrtoc32 function as appropriate for its type, with an
- implementation-defined current locale. The value of a wide character constant containing
- more than one multibyte character or a single multibyte character that maps to multiple
- members of the extended execution character set, or containing a multibyte character or
- escape sequence not represented in the extended execution character set, is
- implementation-defined.
-12 EXAMPLE 1 The construction '\0' is commonly used to represent the null character.
-
-13 EXAMPLE 2 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 -1; if type char has the
- same range of values as unsigned char, the character constant '\xFF' has the value +255.
-
-
-
-
- 77) The semantics of these characters were discussed in 5.2.2. If any other character follows a backslash,
- the result is not a token and a diagnostic is required. See ''future language directions'' (6.11.4).
-
-[page 69]
-
-14 EXAMPLE 3 Even if eight bits are used for objects that have type char, the construction '\x123'
- specifies an integer character constant containing only one character, since a hexadecimal escape sequence
- is terminated only by a non-hexadecimal character. To specify an integer character constant containing the
- two characters whose values are '\x12' and '3', the construction '\0223' may be used, since an octal
- escape sequence is terminated after three octal digits. (The value of this two-character integer character
- constant is implementation-defined.)
-
-15 EXAMPLE 4 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'.

- Constraints
-2 A sequence of adjacent string literal tokens shall not include both a wide string literal and
- a UTF-8 string literal.
- Description
-3 A character string literal is a sequence of zero or more multibyte characters enclosed in
- double-quotes, as in "xyz". A UTF-8 string literal is the same, except prefixed by u8.
- A wide string literal is the same, except prefixed by the letter L, u, or U.
-4 The same considerations apply to each element of the sequence in a string literal as if it
- were in an integer character constant (for a character or UTF-8 string literal) or a wide
- character constant (for a wide string literal), except that the single-quote ' is
- representable either by itself or by the escape sequence \', but the double-quote " shall
-
-[page 70]
-
- be represented by the escape sequence \".
- Semantics
-5 In translation phase 6, the multibyte character sequences specified by any sequence of
- adjacent character and identically-prefixed string literal tokens are concatenated into a
- single multibyte character sequence. If any of the tokens has an encoding prefix, the
- resulting multibyte character sequence is treated as having the same prefix; otherwise, it
- is treated as a character string literal. Whether differently-prefixed wide string literal
- tokens can be concatenated and, if so, the treatment of the resulting multibyte character
- sequence are implementation-defined.
-6 In translation phase 7, a byte or code of value zero is appended to each multibyte
- character sequence that results from a string literal or literals.78) The multibyte character
- sequence is then used to initialize an array of static storage duration and length just
- sufficient to contain the sequence. For character string literals, the array elements have
- type char, and are initialized with the individual bytes of the multibyte character
- sequence. For UTF-8 string literals, the array elements have type char, and are
- initialized with the characters of the multibyte character sequence, as encoded in UTF-8.
- For wide string literals prefixed by the letter L, the array elements have type wchar_t
- and are initialized with the sequence of wide characters corresponding to the multibyte
- character sequence, as defined by the mbstowcs function with an implementation-
- defined current locale. For wide string literals prefixed by the letter u or U, the array
- elements have type char16_t or char32_t, respectively, and are initialized with the
- sequence of wide characters corresponding to the multibyte character sequence, as
- defined by successive calls to the mbrtoc16, or mbrtoc32 function as appropriate for
- its type, with an implementation-defined current locale. The value of a string literal
- containing a multibyte character or escape sequence not represented in the execution
- character set is implementation-defined.
-7 It is unspecified whether these arrays are distinct provided their elements have the
- appropriate values. If the program attempts to modify such an array, the behavior is
- undefined.
-8 EXAMPLE 1 This pair of adjacent character string literals
- "\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.

- Description
-2 A preprocessing number begins with a digit optionally preceded by a period (.) and may
- be followed by valid identifier characters and the character sequences e+, e-, E+, E-,
- p+, p-, P+, or P-.
-3 Preprocessing number tokens lexically include all floating and integer constant tokens.
- Semantics
-4 A preprocessing number does not have type or a value; it acquires both after a successful
- conversion (as part of translation phase 7) to a floating constant token or an integer
- constant token.

- 6.5 Expressions
-1 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. The value computations of the operands of an operator
- are sequenced before the value computation of the result of the operator.
-2 If a side effect on a scalar object is unsequenced relative to either a different side effect
- on the same scalar object or a value computation using the value of the same scalar
- object, the behavior is undefined. If there are multiple allowable orderings of the
- subexpressions of an expression, the behavior is undefined if such an unsequenced side
- effect occurs in any of the orderings.84)
-3 The grouping of operators and operands is indicated by the syntax.85) Except as specified
- later, side effects and value computations of subexpressions are unsequenced.86) *
-4 Some operators (the unary operator ~, and the binary operators <<, >>, &, ^, and |,
- collectively described as bitwise operators) are required to have operands that have
- integer type. These operators yield values that depend on the internal representations of
- integers, and have implementation-defined and undefined aspects for signed types.
-5 If an exceptional condition occurs during the evaluation of an expression (that is, if the
- result is not mathematically defined or not in the range of representable values for its
- type), the behavior is undefined.
-
-
-
- 84) This paragraph renders undefined statement expressions such as
- i = ++i + 1;
- a[i++] = i;
- while allowing
- i = i + 1;
- a[i] = i;
-
- 85) The syntax specifies the precedence of operators in the evaluation of an expression, which is the same
- as the order of the major subclauses of this subclause, highest precedence first. Thus, for example, the
- expressions allowed as the operands of the binary + operator (6.5.6) are those expressions defined in
- 6.5.1 through 6.5.6. The exceptions are cast expressions (6.5.4) as operands of unary operators
- (6.5.3), and an operand contained between any of the following pairs of operators: grouping
- parentheses () (6.5.1), subscripting brackets [] (6.5.2.1), function-call parentheses () (6.5.2.2), and
- the conditional operator ? : (6.5.15).
- Within each major subclause, the operators have the same precedence. Left- or right-associativity is
- indicated in each subclause by the syntax for the expressions discussed therein.
- 86) In an expression that is evaluated more than once during the execution of a program, unsequenced and
- indeterminately sequenced evaluations of its subexpressions need not be performed consistently in
- different evaluations.
-
-[page 76]
-
-6 The effective type of an object for an access to its stored value is the declared type of the
- object, if any.87) If a value is stored into an object having no declared type through an
- lvalue having a type that is not a character type, then the type of the lvalue becomes the
- effective type of the object for that access and for subsequent accesses that do not modify
- the stored value. If a value is copied into an object having no declared type using
- memcpy or memmove, or is copied as an array of character type, then the effective type
- of the modified object for that access and for subsequent accesses that do not modify the
- value is the effective type of the object from which the value is copied, if it has one. For
- all other accesses to an object having no declared type, the effective type of the object is
- simply the type of the lvalue used for the access.
-7 An object shall have its stored value accessed only by an lvalue expression that has one of
- the following types:88)
- -- a type compatible with the effective type of the object,
- -- a qualified version of a type compatible with the effective type of the object,
- -- a type that is the signed or unsigned type corresponding to the effective type of the
- object,
- -- a type that is the signed or unsigned type corresponding to a qualified version of the
- effective 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.
-8 A floating expression may be contracted, that is, evaluated as though it were a single
- operation, thereby omitting rounding errors implied by the source code and the
- expression evaluation method.89) The FP_CONTRACT pragma in <math.h> provides a
- way to disallow contracted expressions. Otherwise, whether and how expressions are
- contracted is implementation-defined.90)
- Forward references: the FP_CONTRACT pragma (7.12.2), copying functions (7.23.2).
-
-
- 87) Allocated objects have no declared type.
- 88) The intent of this list is to specify those circumstances in which an object may or may not be aliased.
- 89) The intermediate operations in the contracted expression are evaluated as if to infinite precision and
- range, while the final operation is rounded to the format determined by the expression evaluation
- method. A contracted expression might also omit the raising of floating-point exceptions.
- 90) This license is specifically intended to allow implementations to exploit fast machine instructions that
- combine multiple C operators. As contractions potentially undermine predictability, and can even
- decrease accuracy for containing expressions, their use needs to be well-defined and clearly
- documented.

- 6.5.1 Primary expressions
- Syntax
-1 primary-expression:
- identifier
- constant
- string-literal
- ( expression )
- generic-selection
- Semantics
-2 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).91)
-3 A constant is a primary expression. Its type depends on its form and value, as detailed in
- 6.4.4.
-4 A string literal is a primary expression. It is an lvalue with type as detailed in 6.4.5.
-5 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.
- Forward references: declarations (6.7).
- 6.5.1.1 Generic selection
- Syntax
-1 generic-selection:
- _Generic ( assignment-expression , generic-assoc-list )
- generic-assoc-list:
- generic-association
- generic-assoc-list , generic-association
- generic-association:
- type-name : assignment-expression
- default : assignment-expression
- Constraints
-2 A generic selection shall have no more than one default generic association. The type
- name in a generic association shall specify a complete object type other than a variably
-
- 91) Thus, an undeclared identifier is a violation of the syntax.
-
-[page 78]
-
- modified type. No two generic associations in the same generic selection shall specify
- compatible types. The controlling expression of a generic selection shall have type
- compatible with at most one of the types named in its generic association list. If a
- generic selection has no default generic association, its controlling expression shall
- have type compatible with exactly one of the types named in its generic association list.
- Semantics
-3 The controlling expression of a generic selection is not evaluated. If a generic selection
- has a generic association with a type name that is compatible with the type of the
- controlling expression, then the result expression of the generic selection is the
- expression in that generic association. Otherwise, the result expression of the generic
- selection is the expression in the default generic association. None of the expressions
- from any other generic association of the generic selection is evaluated.
-4 The type and value of a generic selection are identical to those of its result expression. It
- is an lvalue, a function designator, or a void expression if its result expression is,
- respectively, an lvalue, a function designator, or a void expression.

- 6.5.2.1 Array subscripting
- Constraints
-1 One of the expressions shall have type ''pointer to complete object type'', the other
- expression shall have integer type, and the result has type ''type''.
- Semantics
-2 A postfix expression followed by an expression in square brackets [] is a subscripted
- designation of an element 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 element of an array object) and E2 is an integer, E1[E2] designates the E2-th
- element of E1 (counting from zero).
-3 Successive subscript operators designate an element of a multidimensional array object.
- If E is an n-dimensional array (n >= 2) 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 referenced (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).
-4 EXAMPLE Consider the array object defined by the declaration
- int x[3][5];
- Here x is a 3 x 5 array of ints; more precisely, x is an array of three element objects, each of which is an
- array of five ints. In the expression x[i], which is equivalent to (*((x)+(i))), x is first converted to
- a pointer to the initial array of five ints. 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 ints. When used in the
- expression x[i][j], that array is in turn converted to a pointer to the first of the ints, so x[i][j]
- yields an int.
-
- Forward references: additive operators (6.5.6), address and indirection operators
- (6.5.3.2), array declarators (6.7.6.2).
- 6.5.2.2 Function calls
- Constraints
-1 The expression that denotes the called function92) shall have type pointer to function
- returning void or returning a complete object type other than an array type.
-2 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
-
-
- 92) Most often, this is the result of converting an identifier that is a function designator.
-
-[page 80]
-
- 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
-3 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.
-4 An argument may be an expression of any complete 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.93)
-5 If the expression that denotes the called function has type pointer to function returning an
- object type, the function call expression has the same type as that object type, and has the
- value determined as specified in 6.8.6.4. Otherwise, the function call has type void. *
-6 If the expression that denotes the called function has a type that does not include a
- prototype, the integer 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 equal the number of parameters, the
- behavior is undefined. If the function is defined with a type that includes a prototype, and
- either the prototype ends with an ellipsis (, ...) or the types of the arguments after
- promotion are not compatible with the types of the 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, except for the following cases:
- -- one promoted type is a signed integer type, the other promoted type is the
- corresponding unsigned integer type, and the value is representable in both types;
- -- both types are pointers to qualified or unqualified versions of a character type or
- void.
-7 If the expression that denotes the called function has a type that does include a prototype,
- the arguments are implicitly converted, as if by assignment, to the types of the
- corresponding parameters, taking the type of each parameter to be the unqualified version
- of its declared type. 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.
-
-
-
- 93) 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
- adjusted to have a pointer type as described in 6.9.1.
-
-[page 81]
-
-8 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.
-9 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.
-10 There is a sequence point after the evaluations of the function designator and the actual
- arguments but before the actual call. Every evaluation in the calling function (including
- other function calls) that is not otherwise specifically sequenced before or after the
- execution of the body of the called function is indeterminately sequenced with respect to
- the execution of the called function.94)
-11 Recursive function calls shall be permitted, both directly and indirectly through any chain
- of other functions.
-12 EXAMPLE In the function call
- (*pf[f1()]) (f2(), f3() + f4())
- the functions f1, f2, f3, and f4 may be called in any order. All side effects have to be completed before
- the function pointed to by pf[f1()] is called.

- definitions (6.9.1), the return statement (6.8.6.4), simple assignment (6.5.16.1).
- 6.5.2.3 Structure and union members
- Constraints
-1 The first operand of the . operator shall have an atomic, qualified, or unqualified
- structure or union type, and the second operand shall name a member of that type.
-2 The first operand of the -> operator shall have type ''pointer to atomic, qualified, or
- unqualified structure'' or ''pointer to atomic, qualified, or unqualified union'', and the
- second operand shall name a member of the type pointed to.
- Semantics
-3 A postfix expression followed by the . operator and an identifier designates a member of
- a structure or union object. The value is that of the named member,95) 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.
-
- 94) In other words, function executions do not ''interleave'' with each other.
- 95) If the member used to read the contents of a union object is not the same as the member last used to
- store a value in the object, the appropriate part of the object representation of the value is reinterpreted
- as an object representation in the new type as described in 6.2.6 (a process sometimes called ''type
- punning''). This might be a trap representation.
-
-[page 82]
-
-4 A postfix expression followed by the -> operator 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.96) 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.
-5 Accessing a member of an atomic structure or union object results in undefined
- behavior.97)
-6 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 (see below), and if the union
- object currently contains one of these structures, it is permitted to inspect the common
- initial part of any of them anywhere that a declaration of the completed type of the union
- is visible. Two structures share a common initial sequence if corresponding members
- have compatible types (and, for bit-fields, the same widths) for a sequence of one or more
- initial members.
-7 EXAMPLE 1 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.
-
-8 EXAMPLE 2 In:
- struct s { int i; const int ci; };
- struct s s;
- const struct s cs;
- volatile struct s vs;
- the various members have the types:
- s.i int
- s.ci const int
- cs.i const int
- cs.ci const int
- vs.i volatile int
- vs.ci volatile const int
-
-
-
-
- 96) If &E is a valid pointer expression (where & is the ''address-of '' operator, which generates a pointer to
- its operand), the expression (&E)->MOS is the same as E.MOS.
- 97) For example, a data race would occur if access to the entire structure or union in one thread conflicts
- with access to a member from another thread, where at least one access is a modification. Members
- can be safely accessed using a non-atomic object which is assigned to or from the atomic object.

- union {
- struct {
- int alltypes;
- } n;
- struct {
- int type;

- } ni;
- struct {
- int type;
- double doublenode;

- u.nf.type = 1;
- u.nf.doublenode = 3.14;
- /* ... */
- if (u.n.alltypes == 1)
- if (sin(u.nf.doublenode) == 0.0)
- /* ... */
- The following is not a valid fragment (because the union type is not visible within function f):
- struct t1 { int m; };
- struct t2 { int m; };
- int f(struct t1 *p1, struct t2 *p2)
- {
- if (p1->m < 0)
- p2->m = -p2->m;

- 6.5.2.4 Postfix increment and decrement operators
- Constraints
-1 The operand of the postfix increment or decrement operator shall have atomic, qualified,
- or unqualified real or pointer type, and shall be a modifiable lvalue.
- Semantics
-2 The result of the postfix ++ operator is the value of the operand. As a side effect, the
- value of the operand object is incremented (that is, the value 1 of the appropriate type is
- added to it). See the discussions of additive operators and compound assignment for
- information on constraints, types, and conversions and the effects of operations on
- pointers. The value computation of the result is sequenced before the side effect of
- updating the stored value of the operand. With respect to an indeterminately-sequenced
- function call, the operation of postfix ++ is a single evaluation. Postfix ++ on an object
- with atomic type is a read-modify-write operation with memory_order_seq_cst
- memory order semantics.98)
-3 The postfix -- operator is analogous to the postfix ++ operator, except that the value of
- the operand is decremented (that is, the value 1 of the appropriate type is subtracted from
- it).
- Forward references: additive operators (6.5.6), compound assignment (6.5.16.2).
- 6.5.2.5 Compound literals
- Constraints
-1 The type name shall specify a complete object type or an array of unknown size, but not a
- variable length array type.
-2 All the constraints for initializer lists in 6.7.9 also apply to compound literals.
- Semantics
-3 A postfix expression that consists of a parenthesized type name followed by a brace-
- enclosed list of initializers is a compound literal. It provides an unnamed object whose
- value is given by the initializer list.99)
-
-
- 98) Where a pointer to an atomic object can be formed, this is equivalent to the following code sequence
- where T is the type of E:
- T tmp;
- T result = E;
- do {
- tmp = result + 1;
- } while (!atomic_compare_exchange_strong(&E, &result, tmp));
- with result being the result of the operation.
-
-[page 85]
-
-4 If the type name specifies an array of unknown size, the size is determined by the
- initializer list as specified in 6.7.9, and the type of the compound literal is that of the
- completed array type. Otherwise (when the type name specifies an object type), the type
- of the compound literal is that specified by the type name. In either case, the result is an
- lvalue.
-5 The value of the compound literal is that of an unnamed object initialized by the
- initializer list. If the compound literal occurs outside the body of a function, the object
- has static storage duration; otherwise, it has automatic storage duration associated with
- the enclosing block.
-6 All the semantic rules for initializer lists in 6.7.9 also apply to compound literals.100)
-7 String literals, and compound literals with const-qualified types, need not designate
- distinct objects.101)
-8 EXAMPLE 1 The file scope definition
- int *p = (int []){2, 4};
- initializes p to point to the first element of an array of two ints, the first having the value two and the
- second, four. The expressions in this compound literal are required to be constant. The unnamed object
- has static storage duration.
-
-9 EXAMPLE 2 In contrast, in
- void f(void)
- {
- int *p;
- /*...*/
- p = (int [2]){*p};
- /*...*/
- }
- p is assigned the address of the first element of an array of two ints, the first having the value previously
- pointed to by p and the second, zero. The expressions in this compound literal need not be constant. The
- unnamed object has automatic storage duration.
-
-10 EXAMPLE 3 Initializers with designations can be combined with compound literals. Structure objects
- created using compound literals can be passed to functions without depending on member order:
- drawline((struct point){.x=1, .y=1},
- (struct point){.x=3, .y=4});
- Or, if drawline instead expected pointers to struct point:
-
-
-
- 99) Note that this differs from a cast expression. For example, a cast specifies a conversion to scalar types
- or void only, and the result of a cast expression is not an lvalue.
- 100) For example, subobjects without explicit initializers are initialized to zero.
- 101) This allows implementations to share storage for string literals and constant compound literals with
- the same or overlapping representations.
-
-[page 86]
-
- drawline(&(struct point){.x=1, .y=1},
- &(struct point){.x=3, .y=4});
-
-11 EXAMPLE 4 A read-only compound literal can be specified through constructions like:
- (const float []){1e0, 1e1, 1e2, 1e3, 1e4, 1e5, 1e6}
-
-12 EXAMPLE 5 The following three expressions have different meanings:
- "/tmp/fileXXXXXX"
- (char []){"/tmp/fileXXXXXX"}
- (const char []){"/tmp/fileXXXXXX"}
- The first always has static storage duration and has type array of char, but need not be modifiable; the last
- two have automatic storage duration when they occur within the body of a function, and the first of these
- two is modifiable.
-
-13 EXAMPLE 6 Like string literals, const-qualified compound literals can be placed into read-only memory
- and can even be shared. For example,
- (const char []){"abc"} == "abc"
- might yield 1 if the literals' storage is shared.
-
-14 EXAMPLE 7 Since compound literals are unnamed, a single compound literal cannot specify a circularly
- linked object. For example, there is no way to write a self-referential compound literal that could be used
- as the function argument in place of the named object endless_zeros below:
- struct int_list { int car; struct int_list *cdr; };
- struct int_list endless_zeros = {0, &endless_zeros};
- eval(endless_zeros);
-
-15 EXAMPLE 8 Each compound literal creates only a single object in a given scope:
- struct s { int i; };
- int f (void)
- {
- struct s *p = 0, *q;
- int j = 0;
- again:
- q = p, p = &((struct s){ j++ });
- if (j < 2) goto again;
- return p == q && q->i == 1;
- }
- The function f() always returns the value 1.
-16 Note that if an iteration statement were used instead of an explicit goto and a labeled statement, the
- lifetime of the unnamed object would be the body of the loop only, and on entry next time around p would
- have an indeterminate value, which would result in undefined behavior.

-1 unary-expression:
- postfix-expression
- ++ unary-expression
- -- unary-expression
- unary-operator cast-expression
- sizeof unary-expression
- sizeof ( type-name )
- alignof ( type-name )
- unary-operator: one of

- 6.5.3.1 Prefix increment and decrement operators
- Constraints
-1 The operand of the prefix increment or decrement operator shall have atomic, qualified,
- or unqualified real or pointer type, and shall be a modifiable lvalue.
- Semantics
-2 The value of the operand of the prefix ++ operator is incremented. The result is the new
- value of the operand after incrementation. The expression ++E is equivalent to (E+=1).
- See the discussions of additive operators and compound assignment for information on
- constraints, types, side effects, and conversions and the effects of operations on pointers.
-3 The prefix -- operator is analogous to the prefix ++ operator, except that the value of the
- operand is decremented.
- Forward references: additive operators (6.5.6), compound assignment (6.5.16.2).
- 6.5.3.2 Address and indirection operators
- Constraints
-1 The operand of the unary & operator shall be either a function designator, the result of a
- [] or unary * operator, or an lvalue that designates an object that is not a bit-field and is
- not declared with the register storage-class specifier.
-2 The operand of the unary * operator shall have pointer type.
- Semantics
-3 The unary & operator yields the address of its operand. If the operand has type ''type'',
- the result has type ''pointer to type''. If the operand is the result of a unary * operator,
- neither that operator nor the & operator is evaluated and the result is as if both were
- omitted, except that the constraints on the operators still apply and the result is not an
-
-[page 88]
-
- lvalue. Similarly, if the operand is the result of a [] operator, neither the & operator nor
- the unary * that is implied by the [] is evaluated and the result is as if the & operator
- were removed and the [] operator were changed to a + operator. Otherwise, the result is
- a pointer to the object or function designated by its operand.
-4 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 the unary * operator is
- undefined.102)
- Forward references: storage-class specifiers (6.7.1), structure and union specifiers

- 6.5.3.3 Unary arithmetic operators
- Constraints
-1 The operand of the unary + or - operator shall have arithmetic type; of the ~ operator,
- integer type; of the ! operator, scalar type.
- Semantics
-2 The result of the unary + operator is the value of its (promoted) operand. The integer
- promotions are performed on the operand, and the result has the promoted type.
-3 The result of the unary - operator is the negative of its (promoted) operand. The integer
- promotions are performed on the operand, and the result has the promoted type.
-4 The result of the ~ operator is the bitwise complement of its (promoted) 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 integer promotions are performed on the operand, and the result has the
- promoted type. If the promoted type is an unsigned type, the expression ~E is equivalent
- to the maximum value representable in that type minus E.
-5 The result of the logical negation operator ! is 0 if the value of its operand compares
- unequal to 0, 1 if the value of its operand compares equal to 0. The result has type int.
- The expression !E is equivalent to (0==E).
-
-
-
- 102) Thus, &*E is equivalent to E (even if E is a null pointer), and &(E1[E2]) to ((E1)+(E2)). 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, *(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, and the address of an object after the
- end of its lifetime.

- 6.5.3.4 The sizeof and alignof operators
- Constraints
-1 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 expression that
- designates a bit-field member. The alignof operator shall not be applied to a function
- type or an incomplete type.
- Semantics
-2 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. The result is an integer. If the type of the operand is a variable length array
- type, the operand is evaluated; otherwise, the operand is not evaluated and the result is an
- integer constant.
-3 The alignof operator yields the alignment requirement of its operand type. The result
- is an integer constant. When applied to an array type, the result is the alignment
- requirement of the element type.
-4 When sizeof is 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.103) 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.
-5 The value of the result of both operators is implementation-defined, and its type (an
- unsigned integer type) is size_t, defined in <stddef.h> (and other headers).
-6 EXAMPLE 1 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(size_t);
- double *dp = 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.
-
-7 EXAMPLE 2 Another use of the sizeof operator is to compute the number of elements in an array:
- sizeof array / sizeof array[0]
-
-8 EXAMPLE 3 In this example, the size of a variable length array is computed and returned from a
- function:
- #include <stddef.h>
-
-
-
- 103) When applied to a parameter declared to have array or function type, the sizeof operator yields the
- size of the adjusted (pointer) type (see 6.9.1).
-
-[page 90]
-
- size_t fsize3(int n)
- {
- char b[n+3]; // variable length array
- return sizeof b; // execution time sizeof
- }
- int main()

- size_t size;
- size = fsize3(10); // fsize3 returns 13
- return 0;
- }

- 6.5.4 Cast operators
- Syntax
-1 cast-expression:
- unary-expression
- ( type-name ) cast-expression
- Constraints
-2 Unless the type name specifies a void type, the type name shall specify atomic, qualified,
- or unqualified scalar type, and the operand shall have scalar type.
-3 Conversions that involve pointers, other than where permitted by the constraints of
- 6.5.16.1, shall be specified by means of an explicit cast.
-4 A pointer type shall not be converted to any floating type. A floating type shall not be
- converted to any pointer type.
- Semantics
-5 Preceding an expression by a parenthesized type name converts the value of the
- expression to the named type. This construction is called a cast.104) A cast that specifies
- no conversion has no effect on the type or value of an expression.
-6 If the value of the expression is represented with greater precision or range than required
- by the type named by the cast (6.3.1.8), then the cast specifies a conversion even if the
- type of the expression is the same as the named type and removes any extra range and
- precision.
- Forward references: equality operators (6.5.9), function declarators (including
- prototypes) (6.7.6.3), simple assignment (6.5.16.1), type names (6.7.7).

- 104) A cast does not yield an lvalue. Thus, a cast to a qualified type has the same effect as a cast to the
- unqualified version of the type.

- 6.5.5 Multiplicative operators
- Syntax
-1 multiplicative-expression:
- cast-expression
- multiplicative-expression * cast-expression
- multiplicative-expression / cast-expression
- multiplicative-expression % cast-expression
- Constraints
-2 Each of the operands shall have arithmetic type. The operands of the % operator shall
- have integer type.
- Semantics
-3 The usual arithmetic conversions are performed on the operands.
-4 The result of the binary * operator is the product of the operands.
-5 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.
-6 When integers are divided, the result of the / operator is the algebraic quotient with any
- fractional part discarded.105) If the quotient a/b is representable, the expression
- (a/b)*b + a%b shall equal a; otherwise, the behavior of both a/b and a%b is
- undefined.
- 6.5.6 Additive operators
- Syntax
-1 additive-expression:
- multiplicative-expression
- additive-expression + multiplicative-expression
- additive-expression - multiplicative-expression
- Constraints
-2 For addition, either both operands shall have arithmetic type, or one operand shall be a
- pointer to a complete object type and the other shall have integer type. (Incrementing is
- equivalent to adding 1.)
-3 For subtraction, one of the following shall hold:
-
-
-
-
- 105) This is often called ''truncation toward zero''.
-
-[page 92]
-
- -- both operands have arithmetic type;
- -- both operands are pointers to qualified or unqualified versions of compatible complete
- object types; or
- -- the left operand is a pointer to a complete object type and the right operand has
- integer type.
- (Decrementing is equivalent to subtracting 1.)
- Semantics
-4 If both operands have arithmetic type, the usual arithmetic conversions are performed on
- them.
-5 The result of the binary + operator is the sum of the operands.
-6 The result of the binary - operator is the difference resulting from the subtraction of the
- second operand from the first.
-7 For the purposes of these operators, a pointer to an object that is not an element of an
- array behaves the same as a pointer to the first element of an array of length one with the
- type of the object as its element type.
-8 When an expression that has integer type is added to or subtracted from a pointer, the
- result has the type of the pointer operand. If the pointer operand points to an element of
- an array object, and the array is large enough, the result points to an element offset from
- the original element such that the difference of the subscripts of the resulting and original
- array elements equals the integer expression. In other words, if the expression P points to
- the i-th element of an array object, the expressions (P)+N (equivalently, N+(P)) and
- (P)-N (where N has the value n) point to, respectively, the i+n-th and i-n-th elements of
- the array object, provided they exist. Moreover, if the expression P points to the last
- element of an array object, the expression (P)+1 points one past the last element of the
- array object, and if the expression Q points one past the last element of an array object,
- the expression (Q)-1 points to the last element of the array object. If both the pointer
- operand and the result point to elements of the same array object, or one past the last
- element of the array object, the evaluation shall not produce an overflow; otherwise, the
- behavior is undefined. If the result points one past the last element of the array object, it
- shall not be used as the operand of a unary * operator that is evaluated.
-9 When two pointers are subtracted, both shall point to elements of the same array object,
- or one past the last element of the array object; the result is the difference of the
- subscripts of the two array elements. The size of the result is implementation-defined,
- and its type (a signed integer type) is ptrdiff_t defined in the <stddef.h> header.
- If the result is not representable in an object of that type, the behavior is undefined. In
- other words, if the expressions P and Q point to, respectively, the i-th and j-th elements of
- an array object, the expression (P)-(Q) has the value i-j provided the value fits in an
-
-[page 93]
-
- object of type ptrdiff_t. Moreover, if the expression P points either to an element of
- an array object or one past the last element of an array object, and the expression Q points
- to the last element of the same array object, the expression ((Q)+1)-(P) has the same
- value as ((Q)-(P))+1 and as -((P)-((Q)+1)), and has the value zero if the
- expression P points one past the last element of the array object, even though the
- expression (Q)+1 does not point to an element of the array object.106)
-10 EXAMPLE Pointer arithmetic is well defined with pointers to variable length array types.
- {
- int n = 4, m = 3;
- int a[n][m];
- int (*p)[m] = a; // p == &a[0]
- p += 1; // p == &a[1]
- (*p)[2] = 99; // a[1][2] == 99
- n = p - a; // n == 1
- }
-11 If array a in the above example were declared to be an array of known constant size, and pointer p were
- declared to be a pointer to an array of the same known constant size (pointing to a), the results would be
- the same.

- 6.5.7 Bitwise shift operators
- Syntax
-1 shift-expression:
- additive-expression
- shift-expression << additive-expression
- shift-expression >> additive-expression
- Constraints
-2 Each of the operands shall have integer type.
- Semantics
-3 The integer 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
-
- 106) Another way to approach pointer arithmetic is first to convert the pointer(s) to character pointer(s): In
- this scheme the integer expression added to or subtracted from the converted pointer is first multiplied
- by the size of the object originally pointed to, and the resulting pointer is converted back to the
- original type. For pointer subtraction, the result of the difference between the character pointers is
- similarly divided by the size of the object originally pointed to.
- When viewed in this way, an implementation need only provide one extra byte (which may overlap
- another object in the program) just after the end of the object in order to satisfy the ''one past the last
- element'' requirements.
-
-[page 94]
-
- greater than or equal to the width of the promoted left operand, the behavior is undefined.
-4 The result of E1 << E2 is E1 left-shifted E2 bit positions; vacated bits are filled with
- zeros. If E1 has an unsigned type, the value of the result is E1 x 2E2 , reduced modulo
- one more than the maximum value representable in the result type. If E1 has a signed
- type and nonnegative value, and E1 x 2E2 is representable in the result type, then that is
- the resulting value; otherwise, the behavior is undefined.
-5 The result of E1 >> E2 is E1 right-shifted E2 bit positions. If E1 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 E1 / 2E2 . If E1 has a signed type and a negative value, the
- resulting value is implementation-defined.
- 6.5.8 Relational operators
- Syntax
-1 relational-expression:
- shift-expression
- relational-expression < shift-expression
- relational-expression > shift-expression
- relational-expression <= shift-expression
- relational-expression >= shift-expression
- Constraints
-2 One of the following shall hold:
- -- both operands have real type; or *
- -- both operands are pointers to qualified or unqualified versions of compatible object
- types.
- Semantics
-3 If both of the operands have arithmetic type, the usual arithmetic conversions are
- performed.
-4 For the purposes of these operators, a pointer to an object that is not an element of an
- array behaves the same as a pointer to the first element of an array of length one with the
- type of the object as its element type.
-5 When two pointers are compared, the result depends on the relative locations in the
- address space of the objects pointed to. If two pointers to object types both point to the
- same object, or both point one past the last element of the same array object, they
- compare equal. If the objects pointed to are members of the same aggregate object,
- pointers to structure members declared later compare greater than pointers to members
- declared earlier in the structure, and pointers to array elements with larger subscript
- values compare greater than pointers to elements of the same array with lower subscript
-
-[page 95]
-
- values. All pointers to members of the same union object compare equal. If the
- expression P points to an element of an array object and the expression Q points to the
- last element of the same array object, the pointer expression Q+1 compares greater than
- P. In all other cases, the behavior is undefined.
-6 Each of the operators < (less than), > (greater than), <= (less than or equal to), and >=
- (greater than or equal to) shall yield 1 if the specified relation is true and 0 if it is
- false.107) The result has type int.
- 6.5.9 Equality operators
- Syntax
-1 equality-expression:
- relational-expression
- equality-expression == relational-expression
- equality-expression != relational-expression
- Constraints
-2 One of the following shall hold:
- -- both operands have arithmetic type;
- -- both operands are pointers to qualified or unqualified versions of compatible types;
- -- one operand is a pointer to an object type and the other is a pointer to a qualified or
- unqualified version of void; or
- -- one operand is a pointer and the other is a null pointer constant.
- Semantics
-3 The == (equal to) and != (not equal to) operators are analogous to the relational
- operators except for their lower precedence.108) Each of the operators yields 1 if the
- specified relation is true and 0 if it is false. The result has type int. For any pair of
- operands, exactly one of the relations is true.
-4 If both of the operands have arithmetic type, the usual arithmetic conversions are
- performed. Values of complex types are equal if and only if both their real parts are equal
- and also their imaginary parts are equal. Any two values of arithmetic types from
- different type domains are equal if and only if the results of their conversions to the
- (complex) result type determined by the usual arithmetic conversions are equal.
-
-
-
- 107) 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''.
- 108) Because of the precedences, a<b == c<d is 1 whenever a<b and c<d have the same truth-value.
-
-[page 96]
-
-5 Otherwise, at least one operand is a pointer. If one operand is a pointer and the other is a
- null pointer constant, the null pointer constant is converted to the type of the pointer. If
- one operand is a pointer to an object type and the other is a pointer to a qualified or
- unqualified version of void, the former is converted to the type of the latter.
-6 Two pointers compare equal if and only if both are null pointers, both are pointers to the
- same object (including a pointer to an object and a subobject at its beginning) or function,
- both are pointers to one past the last element of the same array object, or one is a pointer
- to one past the end of one array object and the other is a pointer to the start of a different
- array object that happens to immediately follow the first array object in the address
- space.109)
-7 For the purposes of these operators, a pointer to an object that is not an element of an
- array behaves the same as a pointer to the first element of an array of length one with the
- type of the object as its element type.

-1 AND-expression:
- equality-expression
- AND-expression & equality-expression
- Constraints
-2 Each of the operands shall have integer type.

-3 The usual arithmetic conversions are performed on the operands.
-4 The result of the binary & operator is the bitwise AND of the operands (that is, each bit in
- the result is set if and only if each of the corresponding bits in the converted operands is
- set).
-
-
-
-
- 109) Two objects may be adjacent in memory because they are adjacent elements of a larger array or
- adjacent members of a structure with no padding between them, or because the implementation chose

-3 The && operator shall yield 1 if both of its operands compare unequal to 0; otherwise, it
- yields 0. The result has type int.
-4 Unlike the bitwise binary & operator, the && operator guarantees left-to-right evaluation;

- the first and second operands. If the first operand compares equal to 0, the second
- operand is not evaluated.

-2 The first operand shall have scalar type.
-3 One of the following shall hold for the second and third operands:
- -- both operands have arithmetic type;
- -- both operands have the same structure or union type;
- -- both operands have void type;
- -- both operands are pointers to qualified or unqualified versions of compatible types;
- -- one operand is a pointer and the other is a null pointer constant; or
- -- one operand is a pointer to an object type and the other is a pointer to a qualified or
- unqualified version of void.
- Semantics
-4 The first operand is evaluated; there is a sequence point between its evaluation and the
- evaluation of the second or third operand (whichever is evaluated). 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 result is the value of the second or third operand
- (whichever is evaluated), converted to the type described below.110) *
-5 If both the second and third operands have arithmetic type, the result type that would be
- determined by the usual arithmetic conversions, were they applied to those two operands,
- is the type of the result. 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.
-6 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 referenced by both operands. Furthermore, if both operands are pointers to
- compatible types or to differently qualified versions of compatible types, the result type is
- a pointer to an appropriately qualified version of 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 result type is a
- pointer to an appropriately qualified version of void.
-
- 110) A conditional expression does not yield an lvalue.

-7 EXAMPLE The common type that results when the second and third operands are pointers is determined
- in two independent stages. The appropriate qualifiers, for example, do not depend on whether the two

- void *vp;
- const int *c_ip;
- volatile int *v_ip;

-3 An assignment operator stores a value in the object designated by the left operand. An
- assignment expression has the value of the left operand after the assignment,111) but is not

- to by the left has all the qualifiers of the type pointed to by the right;
- -- the left operand has atomic, qualified, or unqualified pointer type, and (considering
- the type the left operand would have after lvalue conversion) one operand is a pointer
- to an object type, and the other is a pointer to a qualified or unqualified version of
- void, and the type pointed to by the left has all the qualifiers of the type pointed to
- by the right;
- -- the left operand is an atomic, qualified, or unqualified pointer, and the right is a null
- pointer constant; or
- -- the left operand has type atomic, qualified, or unqualified _Bool, and the right is a
- pointer.
- Semantics
-2 In simple assignment (=), 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.
-3 If the value being stored in an object is read 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.
-4 EXAMPLE 1 In the program fragment
-
-
-
-
- 112) The asymmetric appearance of these constraints with respect to type qualifiers is due to the conversion
- (specified in 6.3.2.1) that changes lvalues to ''the value of the expression'' and thus removes any type
- qualifiers that were applied to the type category of the expression (for example, it removes const but
- not volatile from the type int volatile * const).
-

-
- int f(void);
- char c;
- /* ... */
- if ((c = f()) == -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.
-
-5 EXAMPLE 2 In the fragment:
- char c;
- int i;
- long l;
- l = (c = i);
- the value of i is converted to the type of the assignment expression c = i, that is, char type. The value
- of the expression enclosed in parentheses is then converted to the type of the outer assignment expression,
- that is, long int type.
-
-6 EXAMPLE 3 Consider the fragment:
- const char **cpp;
- char *p;
- const char c = 'A';
- cpp = &p; // constraint violation
- *cpp = &c; // valid
- *p = 0; // valid
- The first assignment is unsafe because it would allow the following valid code to attempt to change the
- value of the const object c.
-
- 6.5.16.2 Compound assignment
- Constraints
-1 For the operators += and -= only, either the left operand shall be an atomic, qualified, or
- unqualified pointer to a complete object type, and the right shall have integer type; or the
- left operand shall have atomic, qualified, or unqualified arithmetic type, and the right
- shall have arithmetic type.
-2 For the other operators, the left operand shall have atomic, qualified, or unqualified
- arithmetic type, and (considering the type the left operand would have after lvalue
- conversion) each operand shall have arithmetic type consistent with those allowed by the
- corresponding binary operator.
- Semantics
-3 A compound assignment of the form E1 op = E2 is equivalent to the simple assignment
- expression E1 = E1 op (E2), except that the lvalue E1 is evaluated only once, and with
- respect to an indeterminately-sequenced function call, the operation of a compound
-
-[page 103]
-
- assignment is a single evaluation. If E1 has an atomic type, compound assignment is a
- read-modify-write operation with memory_order_seq_cst memory order
- semantics.113)
- 6.5.17 Comma operator
- Syntax
-1 expression:
- assignment-expression
- expression , assignment-expression
- Semantics
-2 The left operand of a comma operator is evaluated as a void expression; there is a
- sequence point between its evaluation and that of the right operand. Then the right
- operand is evaluated; the result has its type and value.114) *
-3 EXAMPLE As indicated by the syntax, the comma operator (as described in this subclause) cannot
- appear in contexts where a comma is used to separate items in a list (such as arguments to functions or lists
- of initializers). 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
- f(a, (t=3, t+2), c)
- the function has three arguments, the second of which has the value 5.
-
- Forward references: initialization (6.7.9).
-
-
-
-
- 113) Where a pointer to an atomic object can be formed, this is equivalent to the following code sequence
- where T is the type of E1:
- T tmp = E1;
- T result;
- do {
- result = tmp op (E2);
- } while (!atomic_compare_exchange_strong(&E1, &tmp, result));
- with result being the result of the operation.
- 114) A comma operator does not yield an lvalue.

-
- 6.6 Constant expressions
- Syntax
-1 constant-expression:
- conditional-expression
- Description
-2 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
-3 Constant expressions shall not contain assignment, increment, decrement, function-call,
- or comma operators, except when they are contained within a subexpression that is not
- evaluated.115)
-4 Each constant expression shall evaluate to a constant that is in the range of representable
- values for its type.
- Semantics
-5 An expression that evaluates to a constant is required in several contexts. If a floating
- 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.116)
-6 An integer constant expression117) shall have integer type and shall only have operands
- that are integer constants, enumeration constants, character constants, sizeof
- expressions whose results are integer constants, and floating constants that are the
- immediate operands of casts. Cast operators in an integer constant expression shall only
- convert arithmetic types to integer types, except as part of an operand to the sizeof
- operator.
-7 More latitude is permitted for constant expressions in initializers. Such a constant
- expression shall be, or evaluate to, one of the following:
- -- an arithmetic constant expression,
-
-
-
- 115) The operand of a sizeof operator is usually not evaluated (6.5.3.4).
- 116) The use of evaluation formats as characterized by FLT_EVAL_METHOD also applies to evaluation in
- the translation environment.
- 117) An integer constant expression is required in a number of contexts such as the size of a bit-field
- member of a structure, the value of an enumeration constant, and the size of a non-variable length
- array. Further constraints that apply to the integer constant expressions used in conditional-inclusion
- preprocessing directives are discussed in 6.10.1.
-
-[page 105]
-
- -- a null pointer constant,
- -- an address constant, or
- -- an address constant for a complete object type plus or minus an integer constant
- expression.
-8 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 a
- sizeof operator whose result is an integer constant.
-9 An address constant is a null pointer, a pointer to an lvalue designating an object of static
- storage duration, or a pointer to a function designator; it shall be created explicitly using
- the unary & operator or an integer constant cast to pointer type, 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 of an address constant, but the value of an object shall not be
- accessed by use of these operators.
-10 An implementation may accept other forms of constant expressions.
-11 The semantic rules for the evaluation of a constant expression are the same as for
- nonconstant expressions.118)
- Forward references: array declarators (6.7.6.2), initialization (6.7.9).
-
-
-
-
- 118) Thus, in the following initialization,
- static int i = 2 || 1 / 0;
- the expression is a valid integer constant expression with value one.

- init-declarator-list , init-declarator
- init-declarator:
- declarator
- declarator = initializer
- Constraints
-2 A declaration other than a static_assert declaration shall declare at least a declarator
- (other than the parameters of a function or the members of a structure or union), a tag, or
- the members of an enumeration.
-3 If an identifier has no linkage, there shall be no more than one declaration of the identifier
- (in a declarator or type specifier) with the same scope and in the same name space, except
- that a typedef name can be redefined to denote the same type as it currently does and tags
- may be redeclared as specified in 6.7.2.3.
-4 All declarations in the same scope that refer to the same object or function shall specify
- compatible types.
- Semantics
-5 A declaration specifies the interpretation and attributes of a set of identifiers. A definition
- of an identifier is a declaration for that identifier that:
- -- for an object, causes storage to be reserved for that object;
- -- for a function, includes the function body;119)
-
-
-
- 119) Function definitions have a different syntax, described in 6.9.1.
-
-[page 107]
-
- -- for an enumeration constant or typedef name, is the (only) declaration of the
- identifier.
-6 The declaration specifiers consist of a sequence of specifiers that indicate the linkage,
- storage duration, and part of the type of the entities that the declarators denote. The init-
- declarator-list is a comma-separated sequence of declarators, each of which may have
- additional type information, or an initializer, or both. The declarators contain the
- identifiers (if any) being declared.
-7 If an identifier for an object is declared with no linkage, the type for the object shall be
- complete by the end of its declarator, or by the end of its init-declarator if it has an
- initializer; in the case of function parameters (including in prototypes), it is the adjusted
- type (see 6.7.6.3) that is required to be complete.
- Forward references: declarators (6.7.6), enumeration specifiers (6.7.2.2), initialization
- (6.7.9), type names (6.7.7), type qualifiers (6.7.3).
- 6.7.1 Storage-class specifiers
- Syntax
-1 storage-class-specifier:
- typedef
- extern
- static
- _Thread_local
- auto
- register
- Constraints
-2 At most, one storage-class specifier may be given in the declaration specifiers in a
- declaration, except that _Thread_local may appear with static or extern.120)
-3 In the declaration of an object with block scope, if the declaration specifiers include
- _Thread_local, they shall also include either static or extern. If
- _Thread_local appears in any declaration of an object, it shall be present in every
- declaration of that object.
- Semantics
-4 The typedef specifier is called a ''storage-class specifier'' for syntactic convenience
- only; it is discussed in 6.7.8. The meanings of the various linkages and storage durations
- were discussed in 6.2.2 and 6.2.4.
-
-
-
- 120) See ''future language directions'' (6.11.5).
-
-[page 108]
-
-5 A declaration of an identifier for an object with storage-class specifier register
- suggests that access to the object be as fast as possible. The extent to which such
- suggestions are effective is implementation-defined.121)
-6 The declaration of an identifier for a function that has block scope shall have no explicit
- storage-class specifier other than extern.
-7 If an aggregate or union object is declared with a storage-class specifier other than
- typedef, the properties resulting from the storage-class specifier, except with respect to
- linkage, also apply to the members of the object, and so on recursively for any aggregate
- or union member objects.
- Forward references: type definitions (6.7.8).

- Syntax
-1 type-specifier:
- void
- char
- short

- float
- double
- signed
- unsigned
- _Bool
- _Complex
- atomic-type-specifier

- Constraints
-2 At least one type specifier shall be given in the declaration specifiers in each declaration,
- and in the specifier-qualifier list in each struct declaration and type name. Each list of
-
-
- 121) 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 cannot be computed, either explicitly (by use of the unary &
- operator as discussed in 6.5.3.2) or implicitly (by converting an array name to a pointer as discussed in
- 6.3.2.1). Thus, the only operator that can be applied to an array declared with storage-class specifier
- register is sizeof.
-
-[page 109]
-
- type specifiers shall be one of the following multisets (delimited by commas, when there
- is more than one multiset per item); the type specifiers may occur in any order, possibly
- intermixed with the other declaration specifiers.
- -- void
- -- char
- -- signed char
- -- unsigned char
- -- short, signed short, short int, or signed short int
- -- unsigned short, or unsigned short int
- -- int, signed, or signed int

-3 The type specifier _Complex shall not be used if the implementation does not support
- complex types (see 6.10.8.3).
-
-[page 110]

- Semantics
-4 Specifiers for structures, unions, enumerations, and atomic types are discussed in 6.7.2.1
- through 6.7.2.4. Declarations of typedef names are discussed in 6.7.8. The
- characteristics of the other types are discussed in 6.2.5.
-5 Each of the comma-separated multisets designates the same type, except that for bit-
- fields, it is implementation-defined whether the specifier int designates the same type as
- signed int or the same type as unsigned int.

- Constraints
-2 A struct-declaration that does not declare an anonymous structure or anonymous union
- shall contain a struct-declarator-list.
-
-[page 111]
-
-3 A structure or union shall not contain a member with incomplete or function type (hence,
- a structure shall not contain an instance of itself, but may contain a pointer to an instance
- of itself), except that the last member of a structure with more than one named member
- may have incomplete array type; such a structure (and any union containing, possibly
- recursively, a member that is such a structure) shall not be a member of a structure or an
- element of an array.
-4 The expression that specifies the width of a bit-field shall be an integer constant
- expression with a nonnegative value that does not exceed the width of an object of the
- type that would be specified were the colon and expression omitted.122) If the value is
- zero, the declaration shall have no declarator.
-5 A bit-field shall have a type that is a qualified or unqualified version of _Bool, signed
- int, unsigned int, or some other implementation-defined type. It is
- implementation-defined whether atomic types are permitted.
- Semantics
-6 As discussed in 6.2.5, a structure is a type consisting of a sequence of members, whose
- storage is allocated in an ordered sequence, and a union is a type consisting of a sequence
- of members whose storage overlap.
-7 Structure and union specifiers have the same form. The keywords struct and union
- indicate that the type being specified is, respectively, a structure type or a union type.
-8 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. If the struct-declaration-list contains no named
- members, no anonymous structures, and no anonymous unions, the behavior is undefined.
- The type is incomplete until immediately after the } that terminates the list, and complete
- thereafter.
-9 A member of a structure or union may have any complete object type other than a
- variably modified type.123) 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;124) its width is preceded by a colon.
-10 A bit-field is interpreted as having a signed or unsigned integer type consisting of the
- specified number of bits.125) If the value 0 or 1 is stored into a nonzero-width bit-field of
-
- 122) While the number of bits in a _Bool object is at least CHAR_BIT, the width (number of sign and
- value bits) of a _Bool may be just 1 bit.
- 123) A structure or union cannot contain a member with a variably modified type because member names
- are not ordinary identifiers as defined in 6.2.3.
- 124) The unary & (address-of) operator cannot be applied to a bit-field object; thus, there are no pointers to
- or arrays of bit-field objects.
-
-[page 112]
-
- type _Bool, the value of the bit-field shall compare equal to the value stored; a _Bool
- bit-field has the semantics of a _Bool.
-11 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.
-12 A bit-field declaration with no declarator, but only a colon and a width, indicates an
- unnamed bit-field.126) As a special case, a bit-field structure member 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.
-13 An unnamed member of structure type with no tag is called an anonymous structure; an
- unnamed member of union type with no tag is called an anonymous union. The members
- of an anonymous structure or union are considered to be members of the containing
- structure or union. This applies recursively if the containing structure or union is also
- anonymous.
-14 Each non-bit-field member of a structure or union object is aligned in an implementation-
- defined manner appropriate to its type.
-15 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 converted, 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 be unnamed
- padding within a structure object, but not at its beginning.
-16 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 converted, 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.
-17 There may be unnamed padding at the end of a structure or union.
-18 As a special case, the last element of a structure with more than one named member may
- have an incomplete array type; this is called a flexible array member. In most situations,
-
-
- 125) As specified in 6.7.2 above, if the actual type specifier used is int or a typedef-name defined as int,
- then it is implementation-defined whether the bit-field is signed or unsigned.
- 126) An unnamed bit-field structure member is useful for padding to conform to externally imposed
- layouts.
-
-[page 113]
-
- the flexible array member is ignored. In particular, the size of the structure is as if the
- flexible array member were omitted except that it may have more trailing padding than
- the omission would imply. However, when a . (or ->) operator has a left operand that is
- (a pointer to) a structure with a flexible array member and the right operand names that
- member, it behaves as if that member were replaced with the longest array (with the same
- element type) that would not make the structure larger than the object being accessed; the
- offset of the array shall remain that of the flexible array member, even if this would differ
- from that of the replacement array. If this array would have no elements, it behaves as if
- it had one element but the behavior is undefined if any attempt is made to access that
- element or to generate a pointer one past it.
-19 EXAMPLE 1 The following illustrates anonymous structures and unions:
- struct v {
- union { // anonymous union
- struct { int i, j; }; // anonymous structure
- struct { long k, l; } w;
- };
- int m;
- } v1;
- v1.i = 2; // valid
- v1.k = 3; // invalid: inner structure is not anonymous
- v1.w.k = 5; // valid
-
-20 EXAMPLE 2 After the declaration:
- struct s { int n; double d[]; };
- the structure struct s has a flexible array member d. A typical way to use this is:
- int m = /* some value */;
- struct s *p = malloc(sizeof (struct s) + sizeof (double [m]));
- and assuming that the call to malloc succeeds, the object pointed to by p behaves, for most purposes, as if
- p had been declared as:
- struct { int n; double d[m]; } *p;
- (there are circumstances in which this equivalence is broken; in particular, the offsets of member d might
- not be the same).
-21 Following the above declaration:
- struct s t1 = { 0 }; // valid
- struct s t2 = { 1, { 4.2 }}; // invalid
- t1.n = 4; // valid
- t1.d[0] = 4.2; // might be undefined behavior
- The initialization of t2 is invalid (and violates a constraint) because struct s is treated as if it did not
- contain member d. The assignment to t1.d[0] is probably undefined behavior, but it is possible that
- sizeof (struct s) >= offsetof(struct s, d) + sizeof (double)
- in which case the assignment would be legitimate. Nevertheless, it cannot appear in strictly conforming
- code.
-
-[page 114]
-
-22 After the further declaration:
- struct ss { int n; };
- the expressions:
- sizeof (struct s) >= sizeof (struct ss)
- sizeof (struct s) >= offsetof(struct s, d)
- are always equal to 1.
-23 If sizeof (double) is 8, then after the following code is executed:
- struct s *s1;
- struct s *s2;
- s1 = malloc(sizeof (struct s) + 64);
- s2 = malloc(sizeof (struct s) + 46);
- and assuming that the calls to malloc succeed, the objects pointed to by s1 and s2 behave, for most
- purposes, as if the identifiers had been declared as:
- struct { int n; double d[8]; } *s1;
- struct { int n; double d[5]; } *s2;
-24 Following the further successful assignments:
- s1 = malloc(sizeof (struct s) + 10);
- s2 = malloc(sizeof (struct s) + 6);
- they then behave as if the declarations were:
- struct { int n; double d[1]; } *s1, *s2;
- and:
- double *dp;
- dp = &(s1->d[0]); // valid
- *dp = 42; // valid
- dp = &(s2->d[0]); // valid
- *dp = 42; // undefined behavior
-25 The assignment:
- *s1 = *s2;
- only copies the member n; if any of the array elements are within the first sizeof (struct s) bytes
- of the structure, they might be copied or simply overwritten with indeterminate values.

- Constraints
-2 The expression that defines the value of an enumeration constant shall be an integer
- constant expression that has a value representable as an int.
- Semantics
-3 The identifiers in an enumerator list are declared as constants that have type int and
- may appear wherever such are permitted.127) An enumerator with = defines its
- enumeration constant as the value of the constant expression. If the first enumerator has
- no =, the value of its enumeration constant is 0. Each subsequent enumerator with no =
- defines its enumeration constant as the value of the constant expression obtained by
- adding 1 to the value of the previous enumeration constant. (The use of enumerators with
- = 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.
-4 Each enumerated type shall be compatible with char, a signed integer type, or an
- unsigned integer type. The choice of type is implementation-defined,128) but shall be
- capable of representing the values of all the members of the enumeration. The
- enumerated type is incomplete until immediately after the } that terminates the list of
- enumerator declarations, and complete thereafter.
-
-
-
-
- 127) Thus, the identifiers of enumeration constants declared in the same scope shall all be distinct from

- enum identifier

-4 All declarations of structure, union, or enumerated types that have the same scope and

- use different tags declare distinct types. Each declaration of a structure, union, or
- enumerated type which does not include a tag declares a distinct type.
-6 A type specifier of the form
-
-
-
-
- 129) An incomplete type may only by used when the size of an object of that type is not needed. 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 6.2.5.) The specification has to be complete before such a function is called or defined.
-
-[page 117]
-
- struct-or-union identifieropt { struct-declaration-list }
- or
- enum identifieropt { enumerator-list }
- or
- enum identifieropt { enumerator-list , }
- declares a structure, union, or enumerated type. The list defines the structure content,
- union content, or enumeration content. If an identifier is provided,130) the type specifier
- also declares the identifier to be the tag of that type.
-7 A declaration of the form
- struct-or-union identifier ;
- specifies a structure or union type and declares the identifier as a tag of that type.131)
-8 If a type specifier of the form
- struct-or-union identifier
- occurs other than as part of one of the above forms, and no other declaration of the
- identifier as a tag is visible, then it declares an incomplete structure or union type, and
- declares the identifier as the tag of that type.131)
-9 If a type specifier of the form
- struct-or-union identifier
- or
- enum identifier
- occurs other than as part of one of the above forms, and a declaration of the identifier as a
- tag is visible, then it specifies the same type as that other declaration, and does not
- redeclare the tag.
-10 EXAMPLE 1 This mechanism allows declaration of a self-referential structure.
- 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
-
-
-
-
- 130) If there is no identifier, the type can, within the translation unit, only be referred to by the declaration
- of which it is a part. Of course, when the declaration is of a typedef name, subsequent declarations
- can make use of that typedef name to declare objects having the specified structure, union, or
- enumerated type.
- 131) A similar construction with enum does not exist.
-
-[page 118]
-
- 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.
-11 The following alternative formulation uses the typedef mechanism:
- typedef struct tnode TNODE;
- struct tnode {
- int count;
- TNODE *left, *right;
- };
- TNODE s, *sp;
-
-12 EXAMPLE 2 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 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.

- 6.7.2.4 Atomic type specifiers
- Syntax
-1 atomic-type-specifier:
- _Atomic ( type-name )
- Constraints
-2 Atomic type specifiers shall not be used if the implementation does not support atomic
- types (see 6.10.8.3).
-3 The type name in an atomic type specifier shall not refer to an array type, a function type,
- an atomic type, or a qualified type.
- Semantics
-4 The properties associated with atomic types are meaningful only for expressions that are
- lvalues. If the _Atomic keyword is immediately followed by a left parenthesis, it is
- interpreted as a type specifier (with a type name), not as a type qualifier.
-
-[page 119]
-
- 6.7.3 Type qualifiers
- Syntax
-1 type-qualifier:
- const
- restrict
- volatile
- _Atomic
- Constraints
-2 Types other than pointer types whose referenced type is an object type shall not be
- restrict-qualified.
-3 The type modified by the _Atomic qualifier shall not be an array type or a function
- type.
- Semantics
-4 The properties associated with qualified types are meaningful only for expressions that
- are lvalues.132)
-5 If the same qualifier appears more than once in the same specifier-qualifier-list, either
- directly or via one or more typedefs, the behavior is the same as if it appeared only
- once. If other qualifiers appear along with the _Atomic qualifier in a specifier-qualifier-
- list, the resulting type is the so-qualified atomic type.
-6 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.133)
-7 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 5.1.2.3. 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
-
-
-
-
- 132) 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.
- 133) 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).
-
-[page 120]
-
- unknown factors mentioned previously.134) What constitutes an access to an object that
- has volatile-qualified type is implementation-defined.
-8 An object that is accessed through a restrict-qualified pointer has a special association
- with that pointer. This association, defined in 6.7.3.1 below, requires that all accesses to
- that object use, directly or indirectly, the value of that particular pointer.135) The intended
- use of the restrict qualifier (like the register storage class) is to promote
- optimization, and deleting all instances of the qualifier from all preprocessing translation
- units composing a conforming program does not change its meaning (i.e., observable
- behavior).
-9 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.136)
-10 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.
-11 EXAMPLE 1 An object declared
- extern const volatile int real_time_clock;
- may be modifiable by hardware, but cannot be assigned to, incremented, or decremented.
-
-12 EXAMPLE 2 The following declarations and expressions illustrate the behavior when type qualifiers
- modify an aggregate type:
- const struct s { int mem; } cs = { 1 };
- struct s ncs; // the object ncs is modifiable
- typedef int A[2][3];
- const A a = {{4, 5, 6}, {7, 8, 9}}; // array of array of const int
- int *pi;
- const int *pci;
- ncs = cs; // valid
- cs = ncs; // violates modifiable lvalue constraint for =
- pi = &ncs.mem; // valid
- pi = &cs.mem; // violates type constraints for =
- pci = &cs.mem; // valid
- pi = a[0]; // invalid: a[0] has type ''const int *''
-
-
-
- 134) 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.
- 135) For example, a statement that assigns a value returned by malloc to a single pointer establishes this
- association between the allocated object and the pointer.
- 136) Both of these can occur through the use of typedefs.
-
-[page 121]
-
-13 EXAMPLE 3 The declaration
- _Atomic volatile int *p;
- specifies that p has the type ''pointer to volatile atomic int'', a pointer to a volatile-qualified atomic type.
-
- 6.7.3.1 Formal definition of restrict
-1 Let D be a declaration of an ordinary identifier that provides a means of designating an
- object P as a restrict-qualified pointer to type T.
-2 If D appears inside a block and does not have storage class extern, let B denote the
- block. If D appears in the list of parameter declarations of a function definition, let B
- denote the associated block. Otherwise, let B denote the block of main (or the block of
- whatever function is called at program startup in a freestanding environment).
-3 In what follows, a pointer expression E is said to be based on object P if (at some
- sequence point in the execution of B prior to the evaluation of E) modifying P to point to
- a copy of the array object into which it formerly pointed would change the value of E.137)
- Note that ''based'' is defined only for expressions with pointer types.
-4 During each execution of B, let L be any lvalue that has &L based on P. If L is used to
- access the value of the object X that it designates, and X is also modified (by any means),
- then the following requirements apply: T shall not be const-qualified. Every other lvalue
- used to access the value of X shall also have its address based on P. Every access that
- modifies X shall be considered also to modify P, for the purposes of this subclause. If P
- is assigned the value of a pointer expression E that is based on another restricted pointer
- object P2, associated with block B2, then either the execution of B2 shall begin before
- the execution of B, or the execution of B2 shall end prior to the assignment. If these
- requirements are not met, then the behavior is undefined.
-5 Here an execution of B means that portion of the execution of the program that would
- correspond to the lifetime of an object with scalar type and automatic storage duration
- associated with B.
-6 A translator is free to ignore any or all aliasing implications of uses of restrict.
-7 EXAMPLE 1 The file scope declarations
- int * restrict a;
- int * restrict b;
- extern int c[];
- assert that if an object is accessed using one of a, b, or c, and that object is modified anywhere in the
- program, then it is never accessed using either of the other two.
-
-
- 137) In other words, E depends on the value of P itself rather than on the value of an object referenced
- indirectly through P. For example, if identifier p has type (int **restrict), then the pointer
- expressions p and p+1 are based on the restricted pointer object designated by p, but the pointer
- expressions *p and p[1] are not.
-
-[page 122]
-
-8 EXAMPLE 2 The function parameter declarations in the following example
- void f(int n, int * restrict p, int * restrict q)
- {
- while (n-- > 0)
- *p++ = *q++;
- }
- assert that, during each execution of the function, if an object is accessed through one of the pointer
- parameters, then it is not also accessed through the other.
-9 The benefit of the restrict qualifiers is that they enable a translator to make an effective dependence
- analysis of function f without examining any of the calls of f in the program. The cost is that the
- programmer has to examine all of those calls to ensure that none give undefined behavior. For example, the
- second call of f in g has undefined behavior because each of d[1] through d[49] is accessed through
- both p and q.
- void g(void)
- {
- extern int d[100];
- f(50, d + 50, d); // valid
- f(50, d + 1, d); // undefined behavior
- }
-
-10 EXAMPLE 3 The function parameter declarations
- void h(int n, int * restrict p, int * restrict q, int * restrict r)
- {
- int i;
- for (i = 0; i < n; i++)
- p[i] = q[i] + r[i];
- }
- illustrate how an unmodified object can be aliased through two restricted pointers. In particular, if a and b
- are disjoint arrays, a call of the form h(100, a, b, b) has defined behavior, because array b is not
- modified within function h.
-
-11 EXAMPLE 4 The rule limiting assignments between restricted pointers does not distinguish between a
- function call and an equivalent nested block. With one exception, only ''outer-to-inner'' assignments
- between restricted pointers declared in nested blocks have defined behavior.
- {
- int * restrict p1;
- int * restrict q1;
- p1 = q1; // undefined behavior
- {
- int * restrict p2 = p1; // valid
- int * restrict q2 = q1; // valid
- p1 = q2; // undefined behavior
- p2 = q2; // undefined behavior
- }
- }
-
-[page 123]
-
-12 The one exception allows the value of a restricted pointer to be carried out of the block in which it (or, more
- precisely, the ordinary identifier used to designate it) is declared when that block finishes execution. For
- example, this permits new_vector to return a vector.
- typedef struct { int n; float * restrict v; } vector;
- vector new_vector(int n)
- {
- vector t;
- t.n = n;
- t.v = malloc(n * sizeof (float));
- return t;
- }
-
- 6.7.4 Function specifiers
- Syntax
-1 function-specifier:
- inline
- _Noreturn
- Constraints
-2 Function specifiers shall be used only in the declaration of an identifier for a function.
-3 An inline definition of a function with external linkage shall not contain a definition of a
- modifiable object with static or thread storage duration, and shall not contain a reference
- to an identifier with internal linkage.
-4 In a hosted environment, no function specifier(s) shall appear in a declaration of main.
- Semantics
-5 A function specifier may appear more than once; the behavior is the same as if it
- appeared only once.
-6 A function declared with an inline function specifier is an inline function. Making a *
- function an inline function suggests that calls to the function be as fast as possible.138)
- The extent to which such suggestions are effective is implementation-defined.139)
-
-
-
-
- 138) By using, for example, an alternative to the usual function call mechanism, such as ''inline
- substitution''. Inline substitution is not textual substitution, nor does it create a new function.
- Therefore, for example, the expansion of a macro used within the body of the function uses the
- definition it had at the point the function body appears, and not where the function is called; and
- identifiers refer to the declarations in scope where the body occurs. Likewise, the function has a
- single address, regardless of the number of inline definitions that occur in addition to the external
- definition.
- 139) For example, an implementation might never perform inline substitution, or might only perform inline
- substitutions to calls in the scope of an inline declaration.
-
-[page 124]
-
-7 Any function with internal linkage can be an inline function. For a function with external
- linkage, the following restrictions apply: If a function is declared with an inline
- function specifier, then it shall also be defined in the same translation unit. If all of the
- file scope declarations for a function in a translation unit include the inline function
- specifier without extern, then the definition in that translation unit is an inline
- definition. An inline definition does not provide an external definition for the function,
- and does not forbid an external definition in another translation unit. An inline definition
- provides an alternative to an external definition, which a translator may use to implement
- any call to the function in the same translation unit. It is unspecified whether a call to the
- function uses the inline definition or the external definition.140)
-8 A function declared with a _Noreturn function specifier shall not return to its caller.
- Recommended practice
-9 The implementation should produce a diagnostic message for a function declared with a
- _Noreturn function specifier that appears to be capable of returning to its caller.
-10 EXAMPLE 1 The declaration of an inline function with external linkage can result in either an external
- definition, or a definition available for use only within the translation unit. A file scope declaration with
- extern creates an external definition. The following example shows an entire translation unit.
- inline double fahr(double t)
- {
- return (9.0 * t) / 5.0 + 32.0;
- }
- inline double cels(double t)
- {
- return (5.0 * (t - 32.0)) / 9.0;
- }
- extern double fahr(double); // creates an external definition
- double convert(int is_fahr, double temp)
- {
- /* A translator may perform inline substitutions */
- return is_fahr ? cels(temp) : fahr(temp);
- }
-11 Note that the definition of fahr is an external definition because fahr is also declared with extern, but
- the definition of cels is an inline definition. Because cels has external linkage and is referenced, an
- external definition has to appear in another translation unit (see 6.9); the inline definition and the external
- definition are distinct and either may be used for the call.
-
-12 EXAMPLE 2
-
-
-
-
- 140) Since an inline definition is distinct from the corresponding external definition and from any other
- corresponding inline definitions in other translation units, all corresponding objects with static storage
- duration are also distinct in each of the definitions.
-
-[page 125]
-
- _Noreturn void f () {
- abort(); // ok
- }
- _Noreturn void g (int i) { // causes undefined behavior if i <= 0
- if (i > 0) abort();
- }

- 6.7.5 Alignment specifier
- Syntax
-1 alignment-specifier:
- _Alignas ( type-name )
- _Alignas ( constant-expression )
- Constraints
-2 An alignment attribute shall not be specified in a declaration of a typedef, or a bit-field, or
- a function, or a parameter, or an object declared with the register storage-class
- specifier.
-3 The constant expression shall be an integer constant expression. It shall evaluate to a
- valid fundamental alignment, or to a valid extended alignment supported by the
- implementation in the context in which it appears, or to zero.
-4 The combined effect of all alignment attributes in a declaration shall not specify an
- alignment that is less strict than the alignment that would otherwise be required for the
- type of the object or member being declared.
- Semantics
-5 The first form is equivalent to _Alignas(alignof(type-name)).
-6 The alignment requirement of the declared object or member is taken to be the specified
- alignment. An alignment specification of zero has no effect.141) When multiple
- alignment specifiers occur in a declaration, the effective alignment requirement is the
- strictest specified alignment.
-7 If the definition of an object has an alignment specifier, any other declaration of that
- object shall either specify equivalent alignment or have no alignment specifier. If the
- definition of an object does not have an alignment specifier, any other declaration of that
- object shall also have no alignment specifier. If declarations of an object in different
- translation units have different alignment specifiers, the behavior is undefined.
-
-
-
- 141) An alignment specification of zero also does not affect other alignment specifications in the same
- declaration.

- 6.7.6 Declarators
- Syntax
-1 declarator:
- pointeropt direct-declarator
- direct-declarator:
- identifier
- ( declarator )
- direct-declarator [ type-qualifier-listopt assignment-expressionopt ]
- direct-declarator [ static type-qualifier-listopt assignment-expression ]
- direct-declarator [ type-qualifier-list static assignment-expression ]
- direct-declarator [ type-qualifier-listopt * ]
- direct-declarator ( parameter-type-list )
- direct-declarator ( identifier-listopt )
- pointer:
- * type-qualifier-listopt
- * type-qualifier-listopt pointer

- type-qualifier-list type-qualifier
- parameter-type-list:
- parameter-list
- parameter-list , ...
- parameter-list:
- parameter-declaration
- parameter-list , parameter-declaration
- parameter-declaration:
- declaration-specifiers declarator
- declaration-specifiers abstract-declaratoropt
- identifier-list:
- identifier
- identifier-list , identifier
- Semantics
-2 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.
-3 A full declarator is a declarator that is not part of another declarator. The end of a full
- declarator is a sequence point. If, in the nested sequence of declarators in a full
-
-[page 127]
-
- declarator, there is a declarator specifying a variable length array type, the type specified
- by the full declarator is said to be variably modified. Furthermore, any type derived by
- declarator type derivation from a variably modified type is itself variably modified.
-4 In the following subclauses, consider a declaration
- 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.
-5 If, in the declaration ''T D1'', D1 has the form
- identifier
- then the type specified for ident is T .
-6 If, in the declaration ''T D1'', D1 has the form
- ( 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 complicated
- declarators may be altered by parentheses.
- Implementation limits
-7 As discussed in 5.2.4.1, an implementation may limit the number of pointer, array, and
- function declarators that modify an arithmetic, structure, union, or void type, either
- directly or via one or more typedefs.
- Forward references: array declarators (6.7.6.2), type definitions (6.7.8).
- 6.7.6.1 Pointer declarators
- Semantics
-1 If, in the declaration ''T D1'', D1 has the form
- * type-qualifier-listopt 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.
-2 For two pointer types to be compatible, both shall be identically qualified and both shall
- be pointers to compatible types.
-3 EXAMPLE The following pair of declarations demonstrates the difference between a ''variable pointer
- to a constant value'' and a ''constant pointer to a variable value''.
-
-[page 128]
-
- const int *ptr_to_constant;
- int *const constant_ptr;
- The contents of any object pointed to by ptr_to_constant shall not be modified through that pointer,
- but ptr_to_constant itself may be changed to point to another object. 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.
-4 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''.
-
- 6.7.6.2 Array declarators
- Constraints
-1 In addition to optional type qualifiers and the keyword static, the [ and ] may delimit
- an expression or *. If they delimit an expression (which specifies the size of an array), the
- expression shall have an integer type. If the expression is a constant expression, it shall
- have a value greater than zero. The element type shall not be an incomplete or function
- type. The optional type qualifiers and the keyword static shall appear only in a
- declaration of a function parameter with an array type, and then only in the outermost
- array type derivation.
-2 If an identifier is declared as having a variably modified type, it shall be an ordinary
- identifier (as defined in 6.2.3), have no linkage, and have either block scope or function
- prototype scope. If an identifier is declared to be an object with static or thread storage
- duration, it shall not have a variable length array type.
- Semantics
-3 If, in the declaration ''T D1'', D1 has one of the forms:
- D[ type-qualifier-listopt assignment-expressionopt ]
- D[ static type-qualifier-listopt assignment-expression ]
- D[ type-qualifier-list static assignment-expression ]
- D[ type-qualifier-listopt * ]
- 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 ''.142)
- (See 6.7.6.3 for the meaning of the optional type qualifiers and the keyword static.)
-4 If the size is not present, the array type is an incomplete type. If the size is * instead of
- being an expression, the array type is a variable length array type of unspecified size,
- which can only be used in declarations or type names with function prototype scope;143)
-
- 142) When several ''array of'' specifications are adjacent, a multidimensional array is declared.
-
-[page 129]
-
- such arrays are nonetheless complete types. If the size is an integer constant expression
- and the element type has a known constant size, the array type is not a variable length
- array type; otherwise, the array type is a variable length array type. (Variable length
- arrays are a conditional feature that implementations need not support; see 6.10.8.3.)
-5 If the size is an expression that is not an integer constant expression: if it occurs in a
- declaration at function prototype scope, it is treated as if it were replaced by *; otherwise,
- each time it is evaluated it shall have a value greater than zero. The size of each instance
- of a variable length array type does not change during its lifetime. Where a size
- expression is part of the operand of a sizeof operator and changing the value of the
- size expression would not affect the result of the operator, it is unspecified whether or not
- the size expression is evaluated.
-6 For two array types to be compatible, both shall have compatible element types, and if
- both size specifiers are present, and are integer constant expressions, then both size
- specifiers shall have the same constant value. If the two array types are used in a context
- which requires them to be compatible, it is undefined behavior if the two size specifiers
- evaluate to unequal values.
-7 EXAMPLE 1
- float fa[11], *afp[17];
- declares an array of float numbers and an array of pointers to float numbers.
-
-8 EXAMPLE 2 Note the distinction between the declarations
- 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.
-
-9 EXAMPLE 3 The following declarations demonstrate the compatibility rules for variably modified types.
- extern int n;
- extern int m;
- void fcompat(void)
- {
- int a[n][6][m];
- int (*p)[4][n+1];
- int c[n][n][6][m];
- int (*r)[n][n][n+1];
- p = a; // invalid: not compatible because 4 != 6
- r = c; // compatible, but defined behavior only if
- // n == 6 and m == n+1
- }
-
-
-
-
- 143) Thus, * can be used only in function declarations that are not definitions (see 6.7.6.3).
-
-[page 130]
-
-10 EXAMPLE 4 All declarations of variably modified (VM) types have to be at either block scope or
- function prototype scope. Array objects declared with the _Thread_local, static, or extern
- storage-class specifier cannot have a variable length array (VLA) type. However, an object declared with
- the static storage-class specifier can have a VM type (that is, a pointer to a VLA type). Finally, all
- identifiers declared with a VM type have to be ordinary identifiers and cannot, therefore, be members of
- structures or unions.
- extern int n;
- int A[n]; // invalid: file scope VLA
- extern int (*p2)[n]; // invalid: file scope VM
- int B[100]; // valid: file scope but not VM
- void fvla(int m, int C[m][m]); // valid: VLA with prototype scope
- void fvla(int m, int C[m][m]) // valid: adjusted to auto pointer to VLA
- {
- typedef int VLA[m][m]; // valid: block scope typedef VLA
- struct tag {
- int (*y)[n]; // invalid: y not ordinary identifier

- 6.7.6.3 Function declarators (including prototypes)
- Constraints
-1 A function declarator shall not specify a return type that is a function type or an array
- type.
-2 The only storage-class specifier that shall occur in a parameter declaration is register.
-3 An identifier list in a function declarator that is not part of a definition of that function
- shall be empty.
-4 After adjustment, the parameters in a parameter type list in a function declarator that is
- part of a definition of that function shall not have incomplete type.
- Semantics
-5 If, in the declaration ''T D1'', D1 has the form
-
-[page 131]
-
- D( parameter-type-list )
- or
- D( identifier-listopt )
- 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 ''.
-6 A parameter type list specifies the types of, and may declare identifiers for, the
- parameters of the function.
-7 A declaration of a parameter as ''array of type'' shall be adjusted to ''qualified pointer to
- type'', where the type qualifiers (if any) are those specified within the [ and ] of the
- array type derivation. If the keyword static also appears within the [ and ] of the
- array type derivation, then for each call to the function, the value of the corresponding
- actual argument shall provide access to the first element of an array with at least as many
- elements as specified by the size expression.
-8 A declaration of a parameter as ''function returning type'' shall be adjusted to ''pointer to
- function returning type'', as in 6.3.2.1.
-9 If the list terminates with an ellipsis (, ...), no information about the number or types
- of the parameters after the comma is supplied.144)
-10 The special case of an unnamed parameter of type void as the only item in the list
- specifies that the function has no parameters.
-11 If, in a parameter declaration, an identifier can be treated either as a typedef name or as a
- parameter name, it shall be taken as a typedef name.
-12 If the function declarator is not part of a definition of that function, parameters may have
- incomplete type and may use the [*] notation in their sequences of declarator specifiers
- to specify variable length array types.
-13 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.
-14 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 definition of that function specifies that the
- function has no parameters. The empty list in a function declarator that is not part of a
- definition of that function specifies that no information about the number or types of the
- parameters is supplied.145)
-
-
-
- 144) The macros defined in the <stdarg.h> header (7.16) may be used to access arguments that
- correspond to the ellipsis.
-
-[page 132]
-
-15 For two function types to be compatible, both shall specify compatible return types.146)
- 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. (In the determination of type
- compatibility and of a composite type, each parameter declared with function or array
- type is taken as having the adjusted type and each parameter declared with qualified type
- is taken as having the unqualified version of its declared type.)
-16 EXAMPLE 1 The declaration
- 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.
-17 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 either
- internal or external linkage (depending on what file scope declarations for these identifiers are visible), and
- the identifier of the pointer pfi has block scope and no linkage.
-
-18 EXAMPLE 2 The declaration
- 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.
-
-19 EXAMPLE 3 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 int), and an int.
- The pointer returned by fpfi points to a function that has one int parameter and accepts zero or more
-

- void addscalar(int n, int m,
- double a[n][n*m+300], double x);
- int main()
- {
- double b[4][308];
- addscalar(4, 2, b, 2.17);
- return 0;
- }
- void addscalar(int n, int m,
- double a[n][n*m+300], double x)
- {
- for (int i = 0; i < n; i++)
- for (int j = 0, k = n*m+300; j < k; j++)
- // a is a pointer to a VLA with n*m+300 elements
- a[i][j] += x;
- }

-21 EXAMPLE 5 The following are all compatible function prototype declarators.
- double maximum(int n, int m, double a[n][m]);
- double maximum(int n, int m, double a[*][*]);
- double maximum(int n, int m, double a[ ][*]);
- double maximum(int n, int m, double a[ ][m]);
- as are:
- void f(double (* restrict a)[5]);
- void f(double a[restrict][5]);
- void f(double a[restrict 3][5]);
- void f(double a[restrict static 3][5]);
- (Note that the last declaration also specifies that the argument corresponding to a in any call to f must be a
- non-null pointer to the first of at least three arrays of 5 doubles, which the others do not.)

- assignment-expression ]
- direct-abstract-declaratoropt [ * ]
- direct-abstract-declaratoropt ( parameter-type-listopt )
- Semantics
-2 In several contexts, it is necessary to specify a type. This is accomplished using a type
- name, which is syntactically a declaration for a function or an object of that type that
- omits the identifier.147)
-3 EXAMPLE The constructions
- (a) int
- (b) int *
- (c) int *[3]
- (d) int (*)[3]
- (e) int (*)[*]
- (f) int *()
- (g) int (*)(void)
- (h) int (*const [])(unsigned int, ...)
- name respectively the types (a) int, (b) pointer to int, (c) array of three pointers to int, (d) pointer to an
- array of three ints, (e) pointer to a variable length array of an unspecified number of ints, (f) function
- with no parameter specification returning a pointer to int, (g) pointer to function with no parameters
- returning an int, and (h) array of an unspecified number of constant pointers to functions, each with one
- parameter that has type unsigned int and an unspecified number of other parameters, returning an
- int.
-
-
-
-
- 147) 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.

-
- 6.7.8 Type definitions
- Syntax
-1 typedef-name:
- identifier
- Constraints
-2 If a typedef name specifies a variably modified type then it shall have block scope.
- Semantics
-3 In a declaration whose storage-class specifier is typedef, each declarator defines an
- identifier to be a typedef name that denotes the type specified for the identifier in the way
- described in 6.7.6. Any array size expressions associated with variable length array
- declarators are evaluated each time the declaration of the typedef name is reached in the
- order of execution. 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.
-4 EXAMPLE 1 After
- typedef int MILES, KLICKSP();
- typedef struct { double hi, lo; } range;
- the constructions
- MILES distance;
- extern KLICKSP *metricp;
- range x;
- range 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.
-
-5 EXAMPLE 2 After the declarations
- 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, or int.
-
-[page 136]
-
-6 EXAMPLE 3 The following obscure constructions
- 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 either the range [-15, +15] or
- [-16, +15], and one named r that contains values in one of the ranges [0, 31], [-15, +15], or [-16, +15].
- (The choice of range is implementation-defined.) The first two bit-field declarations differ in that
- unsigned is a type specifier (which forces t to be the name of a structure member), while const is a
- type qualifier (which modifies t which is still visible as a typedef name). 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 int.
-
-7 EXAMPLE 4 On the other hand, typedef names can be used to improve code readability. All three of the
- following declarations of the signal function specify exactly the same type, the first without making use
- of any typedef names.
- typedef void fv(int), (*pfv)(int);
- void (*signal(int, void (*)(int)))(int);
- fv *signal(int, fv *);
- pfv signal(int, pfv);
-
-8 EXAMPLE 5 If a typedef name denotes a variable length array type, the length of the array is fixed at the
- time the typedef name is defined, not each time it is used:
- void copyt(int n)
- {
- typedef int B[n]; // B is n ints, n evaluated now
- n += 1;
- B a; // a is n ints, n without += 1
- int b[n]; // a and b are different sizes
- for (int i = 1; i < n; i++)
- a[i-1] = b[i];

-1 initializer:
- assignment-expression
- { initializer-list }
- { initializer-list , }

- designationopt initializer
- initializer-list , designationopt initializer
- designation:
- designator-list =
- designator-list:

- designator-list designator
- designator:
- [ constant-expression ]
- . identifier
- Constraints
-2 No initializer shall attempt to provide a value for an object not contained within the entity
- being initialized.
-3 The type of the entity to be initialized shall be an array of unknown size or a complete
- object type that is not a variable length array type.
-4 All the expressions in an initializer for an object that has static or thread storage duration
- shall be constant expressions or string literals.
-5 If the declaration of an identifier has block scope, and the identifier has external or
- internal linkage, the declaration shall have no initializer for the identifier.
-6 If a designator has the form
- [ constant-expression ]
- then the current object (defined below) shall have array type and the expression shall be
- an integer constant expression. If the array is of unknown size, any nonnegative value is
- valid.
-7 If a designator has the form
- . identifier
- then the current object (defined below) shall have structure or union type and the
- identifier shall be the name of a member of that type.
-
-[page 138]
-
- Semantics
-8 An initializer specifies the initial value stored in an object.
-9 Except where explicitly stated otherwise, for the purposes of this subclause unnamed
- members of objects of structure and union type do not participate in initialization.
- Unnamed members of structure objects have indeterminate value even after initialization.
-10 If an object that has automatic storage duration is not initialized explicitly, its value is
- indeterminate. If an object that has static or thread storage duration is not initialized
- explicitly, then:
- -- if it has pointer type, it is initialized to a null pointer;
- -- if it has arithmetic type, it is initialized to (positive or unsigned) zero;
- -- if it is an aggregate, every member is initialized (recursively) according to these rules,
- and any padding is initialized to zero bits;
- -- if it is a union, the first named member is initialized (recursively) according to these
- rules, and any padding is initialized to zero bits;
-11 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 (after conversion); the same type
- constraints and conversions as for simple assignment apply, taking the type of the scalar
- to be the unqualified version of its declared type.
-12 The rest of this subclause deals with initializers for objects that have aggregate or union
- type.
-13 The initializer for a structure or union object that has automatic storage duration shall be
- either an initializer list as described below, or a single expression that has compatible
- structure or union type. In the latter case, the initial value of the object, including
- unnamed members, is that of the expression.
-14 An array of character type may be initialized by a character string literal or UTF-8 string
- literal, optionally enclosed in braces. Successive bytes of the string literal (including the
- terminating null character if there is room or if the array is of unknown size) initialize the
- elements of the array.
-15 An array with element type compatible with a qualified or unqualified version of
- wchar_t may be initialized by a wide string literal, optionally enclosed in braces.
- Successive wide characters of the wide string literal (including the terminating null wide
- character if there is room or if the array is of unknown size) initialize the elements of the
- array.
-16 Otherwise, the initializer for an object that has aggregate or union type shall be a brace-
- enclosed list of initializers for the elements or named members.
-
-[page 139]
-
-17 Each brace-enclosed initializer list has an associated current object. When no
- designations are present, subobjects of the current object are initialized in order according
- to the type of the current object: array elements in increasing subscript order, structure
- members in declaration order, and the first named member of a union.148) In contrast, a
- designation causes the following initializer to begin initialization of the subobject
- described by the designator. Initialization then continues forward in order, beginning
- with the next subobject after that described by the designator.149)
-18 Each designator list begins its description with the current object associated with the
- closest surrounding brace pair. Each item in the designator list (in order) specifies a
- particular member of its current object and changes the current object for the next
- designator (if any) to be that member.150) The current object that results at the end of the
- designator list is the subobject to be initialized by the following initializer.
-19 The initialization shall occur in initializer list order, each initializer provided for a
- particular subobject overriding any previously listed initializer for the same subobject;151)
- all subobjects that are not initialized explicitly shall be initialized implicitly the same as
- objects that have static storage duration.
-20 If the aggregate or union contains elements or members that are aggregates or unions,
- these 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 elements or members of the
- subaggregate or the contained union. Otherwise, only enough initializers from the list are
- taken to account for the elements or members of the subaggregate or the first member of
- the contained union; any remaining initializers are left to initialize the next element or
- member of the aggregate of which the current subaggregate or contained union is a part.
-21 If there are fewer initializers in a brace-enclosed list than there are elements or members
- of an aggregate, or fewer characters in a string literal used to initialize an array of known
- size than there are elements in the array, the remainder of the aggregate shall be
- initialized implicitly the same as objects that have static storage duration.
-
-
-
- 148) If the initializer list for a subaggregate or contained union does not begin with a left brace, its
- subobjects are initialized as usual, but the subaggregate or contained union does not become the
- current object: current objects are associated only with brace-enclosed initializer lists.
- 149) After a union member is initialized, the next object is not the next member of the union; instead, it is
- the next subobject of an object containing the union.
- 150) Thus, a designator can only specify a strict subobject of the aggregate or union that is associated with
- the surrounding brace pair. Note, too, that each separate designator list is independent.
- 151) Any initializer for the subobject which is overridden and so not used to initialize that subobject might
- not be evaluated at all.
-
-[page 140]
-
-22 If an array of unknown size is initialized, its size is determined by the largest indexed
- element with an explicit initializer. The array type is completed at the end of its
- initializer list.
-23 The evaluations of the initialization list expressions are indeterminately sequenced with
- respect to one another and thus the order in which any side effects occur is
- unspecified.152)
-24 EXAMPLE 1 Provided that <complex.h> has been #included, the declarations
- int i = 3.5;
- double complex c = 5 + 3 * I;
- define and initialize i with the value 3 and c with the value 5.0 + i3.0.
-
-25 EXAMPLE 2 The declaration
- int x[] = { 1, 3, 5 };
- defines and initializes x as a one-dimensional array object that has three elements, as no size was specified
- and there are three initializers.
-
-26 EXAMPLE 3 The declaration
- int y[4][3] = {
- { 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 y (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
- int y[4][3] = {
- 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].
-
-27 EXAMPLE 4 The declaration
- int z[4][3] = {
- { 1 }, { 2 }, { 3 }, { 4 }
- };
- initializes the first column of z as specified and initializes the rest with zeros.
-
-28 EXAMPLE 5 The declaration
- struct { int a[3], b; } w[] = { { 1 }, 2 };
- is a definition with an inconsistently bracketed initialization. It defines an array with two element
-
-
-
- 152) In particular, the evaluation order need not be the same as the order of subobject initialization.
-
-[page 141]
-
- structures: w[0].a[0] is 1 and w[1].a[0] is 2; all the other elements are zero.
-
-29 EXAMPLE 6 The declaration
- short q[4][3][2] = {
- { 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] 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 elements are initialized with zero. Likewise, the initializers
- for q[1][0] and q[2][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 have been issued. The same initialization result could have been achieved by:
- short q[4][3][2] = {
- 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0,
- 2, 3, 0, 0, 0, 0,
- 4, 5, 6
- };
- or by:
- short q[4][3][2] = {
- {
- { 1 },
- },
- {
- { 2, 3 },
- },
- {
- { 4, 5 },
- { 6 },
- }
- };
- in a fully bracketed form.
-30 Note that the fully bracketed and minimally bracketed forms of initialization are, in general, less likely to
- cause confusion.
-
-31 EXAMPLE 7 One form of initialization that completes array types involves typedef names. Given the
- declaration
- typedef int A[]; // OK - declared with block scope
- the declaration
- A a = { 1, 2 }, b = { 3, 4, 5 };
- is identical to
- int a[] = { 1, 2 }, b[] = { 3, 4, 5 };
- due to the rules for incomplete types.
-
-[page 142]
-
-32 EXAMPLE 8 The declaration
- char s[] = "abc", t[3] = "abc";
- defines ''plain'' char array objects s and t whose elements are initialized with character string literals.
- This declaration is identical to
- char s[] = { 'a', 'b', 'c', '\0' },
- t[] = { 'a', 'b', 'c' };
- The contents of the arrays are modifiable. On the other hand, the declaration
- char *p = "abc";
- defines p with type ''pointer to char'' and initializes it to point to an object with type ''array of char''
- with length 4 whose elements 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.
-
-33 EXAMPLE 9 Arrays can be initialized to correspond to the elements of an enumeration by using
- designators:
- enum { member_one, member_two };
- const char *nm[] = {
- [member_two] = "member two",
- [member_one] = "member one",
- };
-
-34 EXAMPLE 10 Structure members can be initialized to nonzero values without depending on their order:
- div_t answer = { .quot = 2, .rem = -1 };
-
-35 EXAMPLE 11 Designators can be used to provide explicit initialization when unadorned initializer lists
- might be misunderstood:
- struct { int a[3], b; } w[] =
- { [0].a = {1}, [1].a[0] = 2 };
-
-36 EXAMPLE 12 Space can be ''allocated'' from both ends of an array by using a single designator:
- int a[MAX] = {
- 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, [MAX-5] = 8, 6, 4, 2, 0
- };
-37 In the above, if MAX is greater than ten, there will be some zero-valued elements in the middle; if it is less
- than ten, some of the values provided by the first five initializers will be overridden by the second five.

-2 A statement specifies an action to be performed. Except as indicated, statements are
- executed in sequence.
-3 A block allows a set of declarations and statements to be grouped into one syntactic unit.
- The initializers of objects that have automatic storage duration, and the variable length
- array declarators of ordinary identifiers with block scope, are evaluated and the values are
- stored in the objects (including storing an indeterminate value in objects without an
- initializer) each time the declaration is reached in the order of execution, as if it were a
- statement, and within each declaration in the order that declarators appear.
-4 A full expression is an expression that is not part of another expression or of a declarator.
- Each of the following is a full expression: an initializer that is not part of a compound
- literal; the expression in an expression statement; the controlling expression of a selection
- statement (if or switch); the controlling expression of a while or do statement; each
- of the (optional) expressions of a for statement; the (optional) expression in a return
- statement. There is a sequence point between the evaluation of a full expression and the
- evaluation of the next full expression to be evaluated.
- Forward references: expression and null statements (6.8.3), selection statements
- (6.8.4), iteration statements (6.8.5), the return statement (6.8.6.4).
- 6.8.1 Labeled statements
- Syntax
-1 labeled-statement:
- identifier : statement
- case constant-expression : statement
- default : statement
- Constraints
-2 A case or default label shall appear only in a switch statement. Further
- constraints on such labels are discussed under the switch statement.
-
-[page 145]
-
-3 Label names shall be unique within a function.
- Semantics
-4 Any statement may be preceded by a prefix that declares an identifier as a label name.
- Labels in themselves do not alter the flow of control, which continues unimpeded across
- them.
- Forward references: the goto statement (6.8.6.1), the switch statement (6.8.4.2).
- 6.8.2 Compound statement
- Syntax
-1 compound-statement:
- { block-item-listopt }
- block-item-list:
- block-item
- block-item-list block-item
- block-item:
- declaration
- statement
- Semantics
-2 A compound statement is a block.
- 6.8.3 Expression and null statements
- Syntax
-1 expression-statement:
- expressionopt ;
- Semantics
-2 The expression in an expression statement is evaluated as a void expression for its side
- effects.153)
-3 A null statement (consisting of just a semicolon) performs no operations.
-4 EXAMPLE 1 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);
-
-
-
- 153) Such as assignments, and function calls which have side effects.
-
-[page 146]
-
-5 EXAMPLE 2 In the program fragment
- char *s;
- /* ... */
- while (*s++ != '\0')
- ;
- a null statement is used to supply an empty loop body to the iteration statement.
-
-6 EXAMPLE 3 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;
- /* ... */
- }
- /* ... */
- end_loop1: ;
- }

- Forward references: iteration statements (6.8.5).
- 6.8.4 Selection statements
- Syntax
-1 selection-statement:
- if ( expression ) statement
- if ( expression ) statement else statement
- switch ( expression ) statement
- Semantics
-2 A selection statement selects among a set of statements depending on the value of a
- controlling expression.
-3 A selection statement is a block whose scope is a strict subset of the scope of its
- enclosing block. Each associated substatement is also a block whose scope is a strict
- subset of the scope of the selection statement.
- 6.8.4.1 The if statement
- Constraints
-1 The controlling expression of an if statement shall have scalar type.
- Semantics
-2 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
-
-[page 147]
-
- to 0. If the first substatement is reached via a label, the second substatement is not
- executed.
-3 An else is associated with the lexically nearest preceding if that is allowed by the
- syntax.
- 6.8.4.2 The switch statement
- Constraints
-1 The controlling expression of a switch statement shall have integer type.
-2 If a switch statement has an associated case or default label within the scope of an
- identifier with a variably modified type, the entire switch statement shall be within the
- scope of that identifier.154)
-3 The expression of each case label shall be an integer constant expression and 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
-4 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.
-5 The integer 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
-6 As discussed in 5.2.4.1, the implementation may limit the number of case values in a
- switch statement.
-
-
-
-
- 154) That is, the declaration either precedes the switch statement, or it follows the last case or
- default label associated with the switch that is in the block containing the declaration.
-
-[page 148]
-
-7 EXAMPLE In the artificial program fragment
- switch (expr)
- {
- int i = 4;
- f(i);
- case 0:
- i = 17;
- /* falls through into default code */
- default:
- printf("%d\n", i);
- }
- the object whose identifier is i exists with automatic storage duration (within the block) but is never
- initialized, and thus if the controlling expression has a nonzero value, the call to the printf function will
- access an indeterminate value. Similarly, the call to the function f cannot be reached.
-
- 6.8.5 Iteration statements
- Syntax
-1 iteration-statement:
- while ( expression ) statement
- do statement while ( expression ) ;
- for ( expressionopt ; expressionopt ; expressionopt ) statement
- for ( declaration expressionopt ; expressionopt ) statement
- Constraints
-2 The controlling expression of an iteration statement shall have scalar type.
-3 The declaration part of a for statement shall only declare identifiers for objects having
- storage class auto or register.
- Semantics
-4 An iteration statement causes a statement called the loop body to be executed repeatedly
- until the controlling expression compares equal to 0. The repetition occurs regardless of
- whether the loop body is entered from the iteration statement or by a jump.155)
-5 An iteration statement is a block whose scope is a strict subset of the scope of its
- enclosing block. The loop body is also a block whose scope is a strict subset of the scope
- of the iteration statement.
-6 An iteration statement whose controlling expression is not a constant expression,156) that
- performs no input/output operations, does not access volatile objects, and performs no
- synchronization or atomic operations in its body, controlling expression, or (in the case of
-
- 155) Code jumped over is not executed. In particular, the controlling expression of a for or while
- statement is not evaluated before entering the loop body, nor is clause-1 of a for statement.
- 156) An omitted controlling expression is replaced by a nonzero constant, which is a constant expression.
-
-[page 149]
-
- a for statement) its expression-3, may be assumed by the implementation to
- terminate.157)
- 6.8.5.1 The while statement
-1 The evaluation of the controlling expression takes place before each execution of the loop
- body.
- 6.8.5.2 The do statement
-1 The evaluation of the controlling expression takes place after each execution of the loop
- body.
- 6.8.5.3 The for statement
-1 The statement
- for ( clause-1 ; expression-2 ; expression-3 ) statement
- behaves as follows: The expression expression-2 is the controlling expression that is
- evaluated before each execution of the loop body. The expression expression-3 is
- evaluated as a void expression after each execution of the loop body. If clause-1 is a
- declaration, the scope of any identifiers it declares is the remainder of the declaration and
- the entire loop, including the other two expressions; it is reached in the order of execution
- before the first evaluation of the controlling expression. If clause-1 is an expression, it is
- evaluated as a void expression before the first evaluation of the controlling expression.158)
-2 Both clause-1 and expression-3 can be omitted. An omitted expression-2 is replaced by a
- nonzero constant.
- 6.8.6 Jump statements
- Syntax
-1 jump-statement:
- goto identifier ;
- continue ;
- break ;
- return expressionopt ;
-
-
-
-
- 157) This is intended to allow compiler transformations such as removal of empty loops even when
- termination cannot be proven.
- 158) Thus, clause-1 specifies initialization for the loop, possibly declaring one or more variables for use in
- the loop; the controlling expression, expression-2, specifies an evaluation made before each iteration,
- such that execution of the loop continues until the expression compares equal to 0; and expression-3
- specifies an operation (such as incrementing) that is performed after each iteration.
-
-[page 150]
-
- Semantics
-2 A jump statement causes an unconditional jump to another place.
- 6.8.6.1 The goto statement
- Constraints
-1 The identifier in a goto statement shall name a label located somewhere in the enclosing
- function. A goto statement shall not jump from outside the scope of an identifier having
- a variably modified type to inside the scope of that identifier.
- Semantics
-2 A goto statement causes an unconditional jump to the statement prefixed by the named
- label in the enclosing function.
-3 EXAMPLE 1 It is sometimes convenient to jump into the middle of a complicated set of statements. The
- following outline presents one possible approach to a problem based on these three assumptions:
- 1. The general initialization code accesses objects only visible to the current function.
- 2. The general initialization code is too large to warrant duplication.
- 3. The code to determine the next operation is at the head of the loop. (To allow it to be reached by
- continue statements, for example.)
- /* ... */
- goto first_time;
- for (;;) {
- // determine next operation
- /* ... */
- if (need to reinitialize) {
- // reinitialize-only code
- /* ... */
- first_time:
- // general initialization code
- /* ... */
- continue;
- }
- // handle other operations
- /* ... */
- }
-
-[page 151]
-
-4 EXAMPLE 2 A goto statement is not allowed to jump past any declarations of objects with variably
- modified types. A jump within the scope, however, is permitted.
- goto lab3; // invalid: going INTO scope of VLA.
- {
- double a[n];
- a[j] = 4.4;
- lab3:
- a[j] = 3.3;
- goto lab4; // valid: going WITHIN scope of VLA.
- a[j] = 5.5;
- lab4:
- a[j] = 6.6;
- }
- goto lab4; // invalid: going INTO scope of VLA.
-
- 6.8.6.2 The continue statement
- Constraints
-1 A continue statement shall appear only in or as a loop body.
- Semantics
-2 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;.159)
- 6.8.6.3 The break statement
- Constraints
-1 A break statement shall appear only in or as a switch body or loop body.
- Semantics
-2 A break statement terminates execution of the smallest enclosing switch or iteration
- statement.
-
-
-
- 159) Following the contin: label is a null statement.
-
-[page 152]
-
- 6.8.6.4 The return statement
- Constraints
-1 A return statement with an expression shall not appear in a function whose return type
- is void. A return statement without an expression shall only appear in a function
- whose return type is void.
- Semantics
-2 A return statement terminates execution of the current function and returns control to
- its caller. A function may have any number of return statements.
-3 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 the return type of the function in which it appears, the value is
- converted as if by assignment to an object having the return type of the function.160)
-4 EXAMPLE In:
- struct s { double i; } f(void);
- union {
- struct {
- int f1;
- struct s f2;
- } u1;
- struct {
- struct s f3;
- int f4;
- } u2;
- } g;
- struct s f(void)
- {
- return g.u1.f2;
- }
- /* ... */
- g.u2.f3 = f();
- there is no undefined behavior, although there would be if the assignment were done directly (without using
- a function call to fetch the value).
-
-
-
-
- 160) The return statement is not an assignment. The overlap restriction of subclause 6.5.16.1 does not
- apply to the case of function return. The representation of floating-point values may have wider range
- or precision than implied by the type; a cast may be used to remove this extra range and precision.

- 6.9 External definitions
- Syntax
-1 translation-unit:
- external-declaration
- translation-unit external-declaration
- external-declaration:
- function-definition
- declaration
- Constraints
-2 The storage-class specifiers auto and register shall not appear in the declaration
- specifiers in an external declaration.
-3 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 whose result is an integer constant), there shall be exactly one external definition
- for the identifier in the translation unit.
- Semantics
-4 As discussed in 5.1.1.1, 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
- 6.7, a declaration that also causes storage to be reserved for an object or a function named
- by the identifier is a definition.
-5 An external definition is an external declaration that is also a definition of a function
- (other than an inline definition) 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
- whose result is an integer constant), somewhere in the entire program there shall be
- exactly one external definition for the identifier; otherwise, there shall be no more than
- one.161)
-
-
-
-
- 161) Thus, if an identifier declared with external linkage is not used in an expression, there need be no
- external definition for it.
-
-[page 154]
-
- 6.9.1 Function definitions
- Syntax
-1 function-definition:
- declaration-specifiers declarator declaration-listopt compound-statement
- declaration-list:
- declaration
- declaration-list declaration
- Constraints
-2 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.162)
-3 The return type of a function shall be void or a complete object type other than array
- type.
-4 The storage-class specifier, if any, in the declaration specifiers shall be either extern or
- static.
-5 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 case there shall not be an identifier. No declaration list
- shall follow.
-6 If the declarator includes an identifier list, each declaration in the declaration list shall
- have at least one declarator, those declarators shall declare only identifiers from the
- identifier list, and every identifier in the identifier list shall be declared. 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.
-
-
-
- 162) The intent is that the type category in a function definition cannot be inherited from a typedef:
- typedef int F(void); // type F is ''function with no parameters
- // 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
-
-[page 155]
-
- Semantics
-7 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,163) the types of the parameters shall be declared in a
- following declaration list. In either case, the type of each parameter is adjusted as
- described in 6.7.6.3 for a parameter type list; the resulting type shall be a complete object
- type.
-8 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.
-9 Each parameter has automatic storage duration; its identifier is an lvalue.164) The layout
- of the storage for parameters is unspecified.
-10 On entry to the function, the size expressions of each variably modified parameter are
- evaluated and the value of each argument expression is converted to the type of the
- corresponding parameter as if by assignment. (Array expressions and function
- designators as arguments were converted to pointers before the call.)
-11 After all parameters have been assigned, the compound statement that constitutes the
- body of the function definition is executed.
-12 If the } that terminates a function is reached, and the value of the function call is used by
- the caller, the behavior is undefined.
-13 EXAMPLE 1 In the following:
- extern int max(int a, int b)
- {
- return a > b ? a : b;
- }
- extern is the storage-class specifier and int is the type specifier; 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:
-
-
-
-
- 163) See ''future language directions'' (6.11.7).
- 164) A parameter identifier cannot be redeclared in the function body except in an enclosed block.
-
-[page 156]
-
- extern int max(a, b)
- int a, b;
- {
- return a > b ? a : b;
- }
- Here int a, b; is the declaration list for the parameters. 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 does not.
-
-14 EXAMPLE 2 To pass one function to another, one might say
- int f(void);
- /* ... */
- g(f);
- Then the definition of g might read
- void g(int (*funcp)(void))
- {
- /* ... */
- (*funcp)(); /* or funcp(); ... */
- }
- or, equivalently,
- void g(int func(void))
- {
- /* ... */
- func(); /* or (*func)(); ... */
- }
-
- 6.9.2 External object definitions
- Semantics
-1 If the declaration of an identifier for an object has file scope and an initializer, the
- declaration is an external definition for the identifier.
-2 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.
-3 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.
-
-[page 157]
-
-4 EXAMPLE 1
- int i1 = 1; // definition, external linkage
- static int i2 = 2; // definition, internal linkage
- extern int i3 = 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; // 6.2.2 renders undefined, linkage disagreement
- int i3; // valid tentative definition, refers to previous
- int i4; // valid tentative definition, refers to previous
- int i5; // 6.2.2 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
-
-5 EXAMPLE 2 If at the end of the translation unit containing
- int i[];
- the array i still has incomplete type, the implicit initializer causes it to have one element, which is set to
- zero on program startup.

- Description
-2 A preprocessing directive consists of a sequence of preprocessing tokens that satisfies the
- following constraints: The first token in the sequence is a # preprocessing token that (at
- the start of translation phase 4) 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. The last token in the sequence is the first new-
- line character that follows the first token in the sequence.165) A new-line character ends
- the preprocessing directive even if it occurs within what would otherwise be an
-
- 165) 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 6.10.3.2, for example).
-
-[page 160]
-
- invocation of a function-like macro.
-3 A text line shall not begin with a # preprocessing token. A non-directive shall not begin
- with any of the directive names appearing in the syntax.
-4 When in a group that is skipped (6.10.1), the directive syntax is relaxed to allow any
- sequence of preprocessing tokens to occur between the directive name and the following
- new-line character.
- Constraints
-5 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 or possibly other white-space characters in
- translation phase 3).
- Semantics
-6 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.
-7 The preprocessing tokens within a preprocessing directive are not subject to macro
- expansion unless otherwise stated.
-8 EXAMPLE In:
- #define EMPTY
- EMPTY # include <file.h>
- the sequence of preprocessing tokens on the second line is not a preprocessing directive, because it does not
- begin with a # at the start of translation phase 4, even though it will do so after the macro EMPTY has been
- replaced.
-
- 6.10.1 Conditional inclusion
- Constraints
-1 The expression that controls conditional inclusion shall be an integer constant expression
- except that: identifiers (including those lexically identical to keywords) are interpreted as *
- described below;166) and it may contain unary operator expressions of the form
- defined identifier
- or
- defined ( identifier )
- which evaluate to 1 if the identifier is currently defined as a macro name (that is, if it is
-
-
- 166) 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, etc.
-
-[page 161]
-
- 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.
-2 Each preprocessing token that remains (in the list of preprocessing tokens that will
- become the controlling expression) after all macro replacements have occurred shall be in
- the lexical form of a token (6.4).
- Semantics
-3 Preprocessing directives of the forms
- # if constant-expression new-line groupopt
- # elif constant-expression new-line groupopt
- check whether the controlling constant expression evaluates to nonzero.
-4 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 or use of the defined unary operator
- does not match one of the two specified forms prior to macro replacement, the behavior is
- undefined. After all replacements due to macro expansion and the defined unary
- operator have been performed, all remaining identifiers (including those lexically
- identical to keywords) are replaced with the pp-number 0, and then each preprocessing
- token is converted into a token. The resulting tokens compose the controlling constant
- expression which is evaluated according to the rules of 6.6. For the purposes of this
- token conversion and evaluation, all signed integer types and all unsigned integer types
- act as if they have the same representation as, respectively, the types intmax_t and
- uintmax_t defined in the header <stdint.h>.167) 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.168) Also, whether a
- single-character character constant may have a negative value is implementation-defined.
-
-
-
-
- 167) Thus, on an implementation where INT_MAX is 0x7FFF and UINT_MAX is 0xFFFF, the constant
- 0x8000 is signed and positive within a #if expression even though it would be unsigned in
- translation phase 7.
- 168) Thus, the constant expression in the following #if directive and if statement is not guaranteed to

-5 Preprocessing directives of the forms
- # ifdef identifier new-line groupopt
- # ifndef identifier new-line groupopt
- 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.
-6 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.169)
- Forward references: macro replacement (6.10.3), source file inclusion (6.10.2), largest
- integer types (7.20.1.5).
- 6.10.2 Source file inclusion
- Constraints
-1 A #include directive shall identify a header or source file that can be processed by the
- implementation.
- Semantics
-2 A preprocessing directive of the form
- # 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.
-3 A preprocessing directive of the form
- # 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
-
-
- 169) 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.
-
-[page 163]
-
- 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.
-4 A preprocessing directive of the form
- # 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.170) 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.
-5 The implementation shall provide unique mappings for sequences consisting of one or
- more nondigits or digits (6.4.2.1) followed by a period (.) and a single nondigit. The
- first character shall not be a digit. The implementation may ignore distinctions of
- alphabetical case and restrict the mapping to eight significant characters before the
- period.
-6 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 5.2.4.1).
-7 EXAMPLE 1 The most common uses of #include preprocessing directives are as in the following:
- #include <stdio.h>
- #include "myprog.h"
-
-
-
-
- 170) Note that adjacent string literals are not concatenated into a single string literal (see the translation
- phases in 5.1.1.2); thus, an expansion that results in two string literals is an invalid directive.
-
-[page 164]
-
-8 EXAMPLE 2 This illustrates macro-replaced #include directives:
- #if VERSION == 1
- #define INCFILE "vers1.h"
- #elif VERSION == 2
- #define INCFILE "vers2.h" // and so on
- #else
- #define INCFILE "versN.h"
- #endif
- #include INCFILE
-
- Forward references: macro replacement (6.10.3).
- 6.10.3 Macro replacement
- Constraints
-1 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.
-2 An identifier currently defined as an object-like macro shall not be redefined by another
- #define preprocessing directive unless the second definition is an object-like macro
- definition and the two replacement lists are identical. Likewise, an identifier currently
- defined as a function-like macro shall not be redefined by another #define
- preprocessing directive unless 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.
-3 There shall be white-space between the identifier and the replacement list in the definition
- of an object-like macro.
-4 If the identifier-list in the macro definition does not end with an ellipsis, the number of
- arguments (including those arguments consisting of no preprocessing tokens) in an
- invocation of a function-like macro shall equal the number of parameters in the macro
- definition. Otherwise, there shall be more arguments in the invocation than there are
- parameters in the macro definition (excluding the ...). There shall exist a )
- preprocessing token that terminates the invocation.
-5 The identifier __VA_ARGS__ shall occur only in the replacement-list of a function-like
- macro that uses the ellipsis notation in the parameters.
-6 A parameter identifier in a function-like macro shall be uniquely declared within its
- scope.
- Semantics
-7 The identifier immediately following the define is called the macro name. There is one
- name space for macro names. Any white-space characters preceding or following the
- replacement list of preprocessing tokens are not considered part of the replacement list
-
-[page 165]
-
- for either form of macro.
-8 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.
-9 A preprocessing directive of the form
- # define identifier replacement-list new-line
- defines an object-like macro that causes each subsequent instance of the macro name171)
- 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.
-10 A preprocessing directive of the form
- # define identifier lparen identifier-listopt ) replacement-list new-line
- # define identifier lparen ... ) replacement-list new-line
- # define identifier lparen identifier-list , ... ) replacement-list new-line
- defines a function-like macro with parameters, whose use is 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.
-11 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
- between matching inner parentheses do not separate arguments. If there are sequences of
- preprocessing tokens within the list of arguments that would otherwise act as
- preprocessing directives,172) the behavior is undefined.
-12 If there is a ... in the identifier-list in the macro definition, then the trailing arguments,
- including any separating comma preprocessing tokens, are merged to form a single item:
-
-
- 171) Since, by macro-replacement time, all character constants and string literals are preprocessing tokens,
- not sequences possibly containing identifier-like subsequences (see 5.1.1.2, translation phases), they
- are never scanned for macro names or parameters.
- 172) Despite the name, a non-directive is a preprocessing directive.
-
-[page 166]
-
- the variable arguments. The number of arguments so combined is such that, following
- merger, the number of arguments is one more than the number of parameters in the macro
- definition (excluding the ...).
- 6.10.3.1 Argument substitution
-1 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 preprocessing file; no other
- preprocessing tokens are available.
-2 An identifier __VA_ARGS__ that occurs in the replacement list shall be treated as if it
- were a parameter, and the variable arguments shall form the preprocessing tokens used to
- replace it.
- 6.10.3.2 The # operator
- Constraints
-1 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
-2 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 composing 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), except that it is implementation-defined whether a \ character is inserted
- before the \ character beginning a universal character name. If the replacement that
- results is not a valid character string literal, the behavior is undefined. The character
- string literal corresponding to an empty argument is "". The order of evaluation of # and
- ## operators is unspecified.
-
-[page 167]
-
- 6.10.3.3 The ## operator
- Constraints
-1 A ## preprocessing token shall not occur at the beginning or at the end of a replacement
- list for either form of macro definition.
- Semantics
-2 If, in the replacement list of a function-like macro, a parameter is immediately preceded
- or followed by a ## preprocessing token, the parameter is replaced by the corresponding
- argument's preprocessing token sequence; however, if an argument consists of no
- preprocessing tokens, the parameter is replaced by a placemarker preprocessing token
- instead.173)
-3 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. Placemarker
- preprocessing tokens are handled specially: concatenation of two placemarkers results in
- a single placemarker preprocessing token, and concatenation of a placemarker with a
- non-placemarker preprocessing token results in the non-placemarker 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.
-4 EXAMPLE In the following fragment:
- #define hash_hash # ## #
- #define mkstr(a) # a
- #define in_between(a) mkstr(a)
- #define join(c, d) in_between(c hash_hash d)
- char p[] = join(x, y); // equivalent to
- // char p[] = "x ## y";
- The expansion produces, at various stages:
- join(x, y)
- in_between(x hash_hash y)
- in_between(x ## y)
- mkstr(x ## y)
- "x ## y"
- In other words, expanding hash_hash produces a new token, consisting of two adjacent sharp signs, but
- this new token is not the ## operator.
-
-
- 173) Placemarker preprocessing tokens do not appear in the syntax because they are temporary entities that
- exist only within translation phase 4.
-
-[page 168]
-
- 6.10.3.4 Rescanning and further replacement
-1 After all parameters in the replacement list have been substituted and # and ##
- processing has taken place, all placemarker preprocessing tokens are removed. The
- resulting preprocessing token sequence is then rescanned, along with all subsequent
- preprocessing tokens of the source file, for more macro names to replace.
-2 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.
- Furthermore, 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.
-3 The resulting completely macro-replaced preprocessing token sequence is not processed
- as a preprocessing directive even if it resembles one, but all pragma unary operator
- expressions within it are then processed as specified in 6.10.9 below.
- 6.10.3.5 Scope of macro definitions
-1 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 preprocessing
- translation unit. Macro definitions have no significance after translation phase 4.
-2 A preprocessing directive of the form
- # 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.
-3 EXAMPLE 1 The simplest use of this facility is to define a ''manifest constant'', as in
- #define TABSIZE 100
- int table[TABSIZE];
-
-4 EXAMPLE 2 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 generating more code than a function if invoked
- several times. It also cannot have its address taken, as it has none.
- #define max(a, b) ((a) > (b) ? (a) : (b))
- The parentheses ensure that the arguments and the resulting expression are bound properly.
-
-[page 169]
-
-5 EXAMPLE 3 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
- #define p() int
- #define q(x) x
- #define r(x,y) x ## y
- #define str(x) # x
- f(y+1) + f(f(z)) % t(t(g)(0) + t)(1);
- g(x+(3,4)-w) | h 5) & m
- (f)^m(m);
- p() i[q()] = { q(1), r(2,3), r(4,), r(,5), r(,) };
- char c[2][6] = { str(hello), str() };
- results in
- 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);
- int i[] = { 1, 23, 4, 5, };
- char c[2][6] = { "hello", "" };
-
-6 EXAMPLE 4 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 "= %d, x" # t "= %s", \
- x ## s, x ## t)
- #define INCFILE(n) vers ## n
- #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
- == 0) str(: @\n), s);
- #include xstr(INCFILE(2).h)
- glue(HIGH, LOW);
- xglue(HIGH, LOW)
- results in
-
-[page 170]
-
- printf("x" "1" "= %d, x" "2" "= %s", x1, x2);
- fputs(
- "strncmp(\"abc\\0d\", \"abc\", '\\4') == 0" ": @\n",
- s);
- #include "vers2.h" (after macro replacement, before file access)
- "hello";
- "hello" ", world"
- or, after concatenation of the character string literals,
- printf("x1= %d, x2= %s", x1, x2);
- fputs(
- "strncmp(\"abc\\0d\", \"abc\", '\\4') == 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.
-
-7 EXAMPLE 5 To illustrate the rules for placemarker preprocessing tokens, the sequence
- #define t(x,y,z) x ## y ## z
- int j[] = { t(1,2,3), t(,4,5), t(6,,7), t(8,9,),
- t(10,,), t(,11,), t(,,12), t(,,) };
- results in
- int j[] = { 123, 45, 67, 89,
- 10, 11, 12, };
-
-8 EXAMPLE 6 To demonstrate the redefinition rules, the following sequence is valid.
- #define OBJ_LIKE (1-1)
- #define OBJ_LIKE /* white space */ (1-1) /* other */
- #define FUNC_LIKE(a) ( a )
- #define FUNC_LIKE( a )( /* note the white space */ \
- a /* other stuff on this line
- */ )
- But the following redefinitions are invalid:
- #define OBJ_LIKE (0) // different token sequence
- #define OBJ_LIKE (1 - 1) // different white space
- #define FUNC_LIKE(b) ( a ) // different parameter usage
- #define FUNC_LIKE(b) ( b ) // different parameter spelling
-
-9 EXAMPLE 7 Finally, to show the variable argument list macro facilities:
- #define debug(...) fprintf(stderr, __VA_ARGS__)
- #define showlist(...) puts(#__VA_ARGS__)
- #define report(test, ...) ((test)?puts(#test):\
- printf(__VA_ARGS__))
- debug("Flag");
- debug("X = %d\n", x);
- showlist(The first, second, and third items.);
- report(x>y, "x is %d but y is %d", x, y);
-
-[page 171]
-
- results in
- fprintf(stderr, "Flag" );
- fprintf(stderr, "X = %d\n", x );
- puts( "The first, second, and third items." );
- ((x>y)?puts("x>y"):
- printf("x is %d but y is %d", x, y));
-
- 6.10.4 Line control
- Constraints
-1 The string literal of a #line directive, if present, shall be a character string literal.
- Semantics
-2 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 (5.1.1.2) while processing the source
- file to the current token.
-3 A preprocessing directive of the form
- # 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). The digit sequence shall not specify zero, nor a number greater than
- 2147483647.
-4 A preprocessing directive of the form
- # line digit-sequence "s-char-sequenceopt" new-line
- sets the presumed line number similarly and changes the presumed name of the source
- file to be the contents of the character string literal.
-5 A preprocessing directive of the form
- # 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.
-
-[page 172]
-
- 6.10.5 Error directive
- Semantics
-1 A preprocessing directive of the form
- # error pp-tokensopt new-line
- causes the implementation to produce a diagnostic message that includes the specified
- sequence of preprocessing tokens.
- 6.10.6 Pragma directive
- Semantics
-1 A preprocessing directive of the form
- # pragma pp-tokensopt new-line
- where the preprocessing token STDC does not immediately follow pragma in the
- directive (prior to any macro replacement)174) causes the implementation to behave in an
- implementation-defined manner. The behavior might cause translation to fail or cause the
- translator or the resulting program to behave in a non-conforming manner. Any such
- pragma that is not recognized by the implementation is ignored.
-2 If the preprocessing token STDC does immediately follow pragma in the directive (prior
- to any macro replacement), then no macro replacement is performed on the directive, and
- the directive shall have one of the following forms175) whose meanings are described
- elsewhere:
- #pragma STDC FP_CONTRACT on-off-switch
- #pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS on-off-switch
- #pragma STDC CX_LIMITED_RANGE on-off-switch
- on-off-switch: one of
- ON OFF DEFAULT
- Forward references: the FP_CONTRACT pragma (7.12.2), the FENV_ACCESS pragma
- (7.6.1), the CX_LIMITED_RANGE pragma (7.3.4).
-
-
-
-
- 174) An implementation is not required to perform macro replacement in pragmas, but it is permitted
- except for in standard pragmas (where STDC immediately follows pragma). If the result of macro
- replacement in a non-standard pragma has the same form as a standard pragma, the behavior is still
- implementation-defined; an implementation is permitted to behave as if it were the standard pragma,
- but is not required to.

-[page 173]
-
- 6.10.7 Null directive
- Semantics
-1 A preprocessing directive of the form
- # new-line
- has no effect.
- 6.10.8 Predefined macro names
-1 The values of the predefined macros listed in the following subclauses176) (except for
- __FILE__ and __LINE__) remain constant throughout the translation unit.
-2 None of these macro names, nor the identifier defined, shall be the subject of a
- #define or a #undef preprocessing directive. Any other predefined macro names
- shall begin with a leading underscore followed by an uppercase letter or a second
- underscore.
-3 The implementation shall not predefine the macro __cplusplus, nor shall it define it
- in any standard header.
- Forward references: standard headers (7.1.2).
- 6.10.8.1 Mandatory macros
-1 The following macro names shall be defined by the implementation:
- __DATE__ The date of translation of the preprocessing translation unit: 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.
- __FILE__ The presumed name of the current source file (a character string literal).177)
- __LINE__ The presumed line number (within the current source file) of the current
- source line (an integer constant).177)
- __STDC__ The integer constant 1, intended to indicate a conforming implementation.
- __STDC_HOSTED__ The integer constant 1 if the implementation is a hosted
- implementation or the integer constant 0 if it is not.
-
-
-
-
- 176) See ''future language directions'' (6.11.9).
- 177) The presumed source file name and line number can be changed by the #line directive.
-
-[page 174]
-
- __STDC_VERSION__ The integer constant 201ymmL.178)
- __TIME__ The time of translation of the preprocessing translation unit: 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.
- Forward references: the asctime function (7.26.3.1).
- 6.10.8.2 Environment macros
-1 The following macro names are conditionally defined by the implementation:
- __STDC_ISO_10646__ An integer constant of the form yyyymmL (for example,
- 199712L). If this symbol is defined, then every character in the Unicode
- required set, when stored in an object of type wchar_t, has the same
- value as the short identifier of that character. The Unicode required set
- consists of all the characters that are defined by ISO/IEC 10646, along with
- all amendments and technical corrigenda, as of the specified year and
- month. If some other encoding is used, the macro shall not be defined and
- the actual encoding used is implementation-defined.
- __STDC_MB_MIGHT_NEQ_WC__ The integer constant 1, intended to indicate that, in
- the encoding for wchar_t, a member of the basic character set need not
- have a code value equal to its value when used as the lone character in an
- integer character constant.
- __STDC_UTF_16__ The integer constant 1, intended to indicate that values of type
- char16_t are UTF-16 encoded. If some other encoding is used, the
- macro shall not be defined and the actual encoding used is implementation-
- defined.
- __STDC_UTF_32__ The integer constant 1, intended to indicate that values of type
- char32_t are UTF-32 encoded. If some other encoding is used, the
- macro shall not be defined and the actual encoding used is implementation-
- defined.
- Forward references: common definitions (7.19), unicode utilities (7.27).
-
-
-
-
- 178) This macro was not specified in ISO/IEC 9899:1990 and was specified as 199409L in
- ISO/IEC 9899/AMD1:1995 and as 199901L in ISO/IEC 9899:1999. The intention is that this will
- remain an integer constant of type long int that is increased with each revision of this International
- Standard.
-
-[page 175]
-
- 6.10.8.3 Conditional feature macros
-1 The following macro names are conditionally defined by the implementation:
- __STDC_ANALYZABLE__ The integer constant 1, intended to indicate conformance to
- the specifications in annex L (Analyzability).
- __STDC_IEC_559__ The integer constant 1, intended to indicate conformance to the
- specifications in annex F (IEC 60559 floating-point arithmetic).
- __STDC_IEC_559_COMPLEX__ The integer constant 1, intended to indicate
- adherence to the specifications in annex G (IEC 60559 compatible complex
- arithmetic).
- __STDC_LIB_EXT1__ The integer constant 201ymmL, intended to indicate support
- for the extensions defined in annex K (Bounds-checking interfaces).179)
- __STDC_NO_COMPLEX__ The integer constant 1, intended to indicate that the
- implementation does not support complex types or the <complex.h>
- header.
- __STDC_NO_THREADS__ The integer constant 1, intended to indicate that the
- implementation does not support atomic types (including the _Atomic
- type qualifier and the <stdatomic.h> header) or the <threads.h>
- header.
- __STDC_NO_VLA__ The integer constant 1, intended to indicate that the
- implementation does not support variable length arrays or variably
- modified types.
-2 An implementation that defines __STDC_NO_COMPLEX__ shall not define
- __STDC_IEC_559_COMPLEX__.
- 6.10.9 Pragma operator
- Semantics
-1 A unary operator expression of the form:
- _Pragma ( string-literal )
- is processed as follows: The string literal is destringized by deleting the L prefix, if
- present, deleting the leading and trailing double-quotes, replacing each escape sequence
- \" by a double-quote, and replacing each escape sequence \\ by a single backslash. The
- resulting sequence of characters is processed through translation phase 3 to produce
- preprocessing tokens that are executed as if they were the pp-tokens in a pragma
-
-
- 179) The intention is that this will remain an integer constant of type long int that is increased with
- each revision of this International Standard.
-
-[page 176]
-
- directive. The original four preprocessing tokens in the unary operator expression are
- removed.

- #pragma listing on "..\listing.dir"
- can also be expressed as:
- _Pragma ( "listing on \"..\\listing.dir\"" )
- The latter form is processed in the same way whether it appears literally as shown, or results from macro
- replacement, as in:
- #define LISTING(x) PRAGMA(listing on #x)
- #define PRAGMA(x) _Pragma(#x)
- LISTING ( ..\listing.dir )

- 7. Library
- 7.1 Introduction
- 7.1.1 Definitions of terms
-1 A string is a contiguous sequence of characters terminated by and including the first null
- character. The term multibyte string is sometimes used instead to emphasize special
- processing given to multibyte characters contained in the string or to avoid confusion
- with a wide string. A pointer to a string is a pointer to its initial (lowest addressed)
- character. The length of a string is the number of bytes preceding the null character and
- the value of a string is the sequence of the values of the contained characters, in order.
-2 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.180) It is represented in the text and examples by a period, but
- may be changed by the setlocale function.
-3 A null wide character is a wide character with code value zero.
-4 A wide string is a contiguous sequence of wide characters terminated by and including
- the first null wide character. A pointer to a wide string is a pointer to its initial (lowest
- addressed) wide character. The length of a wide string is the number of wide characters
- preceding the null wide character and the value of a wide string is the sequence of code
- values of the contained wide characters, in order.
-5 A shift sequence is a contiguous sequence of bytes within a multibyte string that
- (potentially) causes a change in shift state (see 5.2.1.2). A shift sequence shall not have a
- corresponding wide character; it is instead taken to be an adjunct to an adjacent multibyte
- character.181)
- Forward references: character handling (7.4), the setlocale function (7.11.1.1).
-
-
-
-
- 180) The functions that make use of the decimal-point character are the numeric conversion functions
- (7.22.1, 7.28.4.1) and the formatted input/output functions (7.21.6, 7.28.2).
- 181) For state-dependent encodings, the values for MB_CUR_MAX and MB_LEN_MAX shall thus be large
- enough to count all the bytes in any complete multibyte character plus at least one adjacent shift
- sequence of maximum length. Whether these counts provide for more than one shift sequence is the
- implementation's choice.
-
-[page 179]
-
- 7.1.2 Standard headers
-1 Each library function is declared, with a type that includes a prototype, in a header,182)
- 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. Declarations of types described in this clause shall not
- include type qualifiers, unless explicitly stated otherwise.
-2 The standard headers are183)
- <assert.h> <iso646.h> <stdarg.h> <string.h>
- <complex.h> <limits.h> <stdatomic.h> <tgmath.h>
- <ctype.h> <locale.h> <stdbool.h> <threads.h>
- <errno.h> <math.h> <stddef.h> <time.h>
- <fenv.h> <setjmp.h> <stdint.h> <uchar.h>
- <float.h> <signal.h> <stdio.h> <wchar.h>
- <inttypes.h> <stdalign.h> <stdlib.h> <wctype.h>
-3 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 that are
- searched for included source files, the behavior is undefined.
-4 Standard 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 (see 7.2). 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. However, if an identifier is declared
- or defined in more than one header, the second and subsequent associated headers may be
- included after the initial reference to the identifier. The program shall not have any
- macros with names lexically identical to keywords currently defined prior to the
- inclusion.
-5 Any definition of an object-like macro described in this clause shall expand to code that is
- fully protected by parentheses where necessary, so that it groups in an arbitrary
- expression as if it were a single identifier.
-6 Any declaration of a library function shall have external linkage.
-
-
-
-
- 182) A header is not necessarily a source file, nor are the < and > delimited sequences in header names
- necessarily valid source file names.
- 183) The headers <complex.h>, <stdatomic.h>, and <threads.h> are conditional features that
- implementations need not support; see 6.10.8.3.
-
-[page 180]
-
-7 A summary of the contents of the standard headers is given in annex B.
- Forward references: diagnostics (7.2).
- 7.1.3 Reserved identifiers
-1 Each header declares or defines all identifiers listed in its associated subclause, and
- optionally declares or defines identifiers listed in its associated future library directions
- subclause and identifiers which are always reserved either for any use or for use as file
- scope identifiers.
- -- All identifiers that begin with an underscore and either an uppercase letter or another
- underscore are always reserved for any use.
- -- All identifiers that begin with an underscore are always reserved for use as identifiers
- with file scope in both the ordinary and tag name spaces.
- -- Each macro name in any of the following subclauses (including the future library
- directions) is reserved for use as specified if any of its associated headers is included;
- unless explicitly stated otherwise (see 7.1.4).
- -- All identifiers with external linkage in any of the following subclauses (including the
- future library directions) and errno are always reserved for use as identifiers with
- external linkage.184)
- -- Each identifier with file scope listed in any of the following subclauses (including the
- future library directions) is reserved for use as a macro name and as an identifier with
- file scope in the same name space if any of its associated headers is included.
-2 No other identifiers are reserved. If the program declares or defines an identifier in a
- context in which it is reserved (other than as allowed by 7.1.4), or defines a reserved
- identifier as a macro name, the behavior is undefined.
-3 If the program removes (with #undef) any macro definition of an identifier in the first
- group listed above, the behavior is undefined.
-
-
-
-
- 184) The list of reserved identifiers with external linkage includes math_errhandling, setjmp,
- va_copy, and va_end.
-
-[page 181]
-
- 7.1.4 Use of library functions
-1 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, or a pointer to non-modifiable storage when the corresponding
- parameter is not const-qualified) or a type (after promotion) not expected by a function
- with variable number of arguments, the behavior is undefined. If a function argument is
- described as being an array, the pointer actually passed to the function shall have a value
- such that all address computations and accesses to objects (that would be valid if the
- pointer did point to the first element of such an array) are in fact valid. Any function
- declared in a header may be additionally implemented as a function-like macro defined in
- the header, so if a library function is declared explicitly when its header is included, one
- of the techniques shown below can be used to ensure the declaration is not affected by
- such a macro. 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.185) 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 shall 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.186) Likewise, those function-like macros described in the
- following subclauses may be invoked in an expression anywhere a function with a
- compatible return type could be called.187) All object-like macros listed as expanding to
-
-
- 185) This means that an implementation shall provide an actual function for each library function, even if it
- also provides a macro for that function.
- 186) Such macros might not contain the sequence points that the corresponding function calls do.
- 187) 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 built-in
- implementation. The prototype for the function, which precedes and is hidden by any macro
- definition, is thereby revealed also.
-
-[page 182]
-
- integer constant expressions shall additionally be suitable for use in #if preprocessing
- directives.
-2 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 and use it without including its
- associated header.
-3 There is a sequence point immediately before a library function returns.
-4 The functions in the standard library are not guaranteed to be reentrant and may modify
- objects with static or thread storage duration.188)
-5 Unless explicitly stated otherwise in the detailed descriptions that follow, library
- functions shall prevent data races as follows: A library function shall not directly or
- indirectly access objects accessible by threads other than the current thread unless the
- objects are accessed directly or indirectly via the function's arguments. A library
- function shall not directly or indirectly modify objects accessible by threads other than
- the current thread unless the objects are accessed directly or indirectly via the function's
- non-const arguments.189) Implementations may share their own internal objects between
- threads if the objects are not visible to users and are protected against data races.
-6 Unless otherwise specified, library functions shall perform all operations solely within the
- current thread if those operations have effects that are visible to users.190)
-7 EXAMPLE The function atoi may be used in any of several ways:
- -- by use of its associated header (possibly generating a macro expansion)
- #include <stdlib.h>
- const char *str;
- /* ... */
- i = atoi(str);
- -- by use of its associated header (assuredly generating a true function reference)
-
-
-
-
- 188) Thus, a signal handler cannot, in general, call standard library functions.
- 189) This means, for example, that an implementation is not permitted to use a static object for internal
- purposes without synchronization because it could cause a data race even in programs that do not
- explicitly share objects between threads.
- 190) This allows implementations to parallelize operations if there are no visible side effects.
-
-[page 183]
-
- #include <stdlib.h>
- #undef atoi
- const char *str;
- /* ... */
- i = atoi(str);
- or
- #include <stdlib.h>
- const char *str;
- /* ... */
- i = (atoi)(str);
--- by explicit declaration
- extern int atoi(const char *);
- const char *str;
- /* ... */
- i = atoi(str);
-

-
- 7.2 Diagnostics <assert.h>
-1 The header <assert.h> defines the assert and static_assert macros 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, the assert macro is defined
- simply as
- #define assert(ignore) ((void)0)
- The assert macro is redefined according to the current state of NDEBUG each time that
- <assert.h> is included.
-2 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.
-3 The macro
- static_assert
- expands to _Static_assert.
- 7.2.1 Program diagnostics
- 7.2.1.1 The assert macro
- Synopsis
-1 #include <assert.h>
- void assert(scalar expression);
- Description
-2 The assert macro puts diagnostic tests into programs; it expands to a void expression.
- When it is executed, if expression (which shall have a scalar type) 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, the source line
- number, and the name of the enclosing function -- the latter are respectively the values of
- the preprocessing macros __FILE__ and __LINE__ and of the identifier
- __func__) on the standard error stream in an implementation-defined format.191) It
- then calls the abort function.
-
-
-
- 191) The message written might be of the form:
- Assertion failed: expression, function abc, file xyz, line nnn.
-
-[page 185]
-
- Returns
-3 The assert macro returns no value.
- Forward references: the abort function (7.22.4.1).

- 7.3 Complex arithmetic <complex.h>
- 7.3.1 Introduction
-1 The header <complex.h> defines macros and declares functions that support complex
- arithmetic.192)
-2 Implementations that define the macro __STDC_NO_COMPLEX__ need not provide
- this header nor support any of its facilities.
-3 Each synopsis specifies a family of functions consisting of a principal function with one
- or more double complex parameters and a double complex or double return
- value; and other functions with the same name but with f and l suffixes which are
- corresponding functions with float and long double parameters and return values.
-4 The macro
- complex
- expands to _Complex; the macro
- _Complex_I
- expands to a constant expression of type const float _Complex, with the value of
- the imaginary unit.193)
-5 The macros
- imaginary
- and
- _Imaginary_I
- are defined if and only if the implementation supports imaginary types;194) if defined,
- they expand to _Imaginary and a constant expression of type const float
- _Imaginary with the value of the imaginary unit.
-6 The macro
- I
- expands to either _Imaginary_I or _Complex_I. If _Imaginary_I is not
- defined, I shall expand to _Complex_I.
-7 Notwithstanding the provisions of 7.1.3, a program may undefine and perhaps then
- redefine the macros complex, imaginary, and I.
-
- 192) See ''future library directions'' (7.30.1).
- 193) The imaginary unit is a number i such that i 2 = -1.
- 194) A specification for imaginary types is in informative annex G.
-
-[page 187]
-
- Forward references: IEC 60559-compatible complex arithmetic (annex G).
- 7.3.2 Conventions
-1 Values are interpreted as radians, not degrees. An implementation may set errno but is
- not required to.
- 7.3.3 Branch cuts
-1 Some of the functions below have branch cuts, across which the function is
- discontinuous. For implementations with a signed zero (including all IEC 60559
- implementations) that follow the specifications of annex G, the sign of zero distinguishes
- one side of a cut from another so the function is continuous (except for format
- limitations) as the cut is approached from either side. For example, for the square root
- function, which has a branch cut along the negative real axis, the top of the cut, with
- imaginary part +0, maps to the positive imaginary axis, and the bottom of the cut, with
- imaginary part -0, maps to the negative imaginary axis.
-2 Implementations that do not support a signed zero (see annex F) cannot distinguish the
- sides of branch cuts. These implementations shall map a cut so the function is continuous
- as the cut is approached coming around the finite endpoint of the cut in a counter
- clockwise direction. (Branch cuts for the functions specified here have just one finite
- endpoint.) For example, for the square root function, coming counter clockwise around
- the finite endpoint of the cut along the negative real axis approaches the cut from above,
- so the cut maps to the positive imaginary axis.
- 7.3.4 The CX_LIMITED_RANGE pragma
- Synopsis
-1 #include <complex.h>
- #pragma STDC CX_LIMITED_RANGE on-off-switch
- Description
-2 The usual mathematical formulas for complex multiply, divide, and absolute value are
- problematic because of their treatment of infinities and because of undue overflow and
- underflow. The CX_LIMITED_RANGE pragma can be used to inform the
- implementation that (where the state is ''on'') the usual mathematical formulas are
- acceptable.195) The pragma can occur either outside external declarations or preceding all
- explicit declarations and statements inside a compound statement. When outside external
- declarations, the pragma takes effect from its occurrence until another
- CX_LIMITED_RANGE pragma is encountered, or until the end of the translation unit.
- When inside a compound statement, the pragma takes effect from its occurrence until
- another CX_LIMITED_RANGE pragma is encountered (including within a nested
- compound statement), or until the end of the compound statement; at the end of a
- compound statement the state for the pragma is restored to its condition just before the
-
-[page 188]
-
- compound statement. If this pragma is used in any other context, the behavior is
- undefined. The default state for the pragma is ''off''.

- 195) The purpose of the pragma is to allow the implementation to use the formulas:
- (x + iy) x (u + iv) = (xu - yv) + i(yu + xv)
- (x + iy) / (u + iv) = [(xu + yv) + i(yu - xv)]/(u2 + v 2 )

- 7.3.9.3 The CMPLX macros
- Synopsis
-1 #include <complex.h>
- double complex CMPLX(double x, double y);
- float complex CMPLXF(float x, float y);
- long double complex CMPLXL(long double x, long double y);

-
- 7.4 Character handling <ctype.h>
-1 The header <ctype.h> declares several functions useful for classifying and mapping
- characters.198) 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.
-2 The behavior of these functions is affected by the current locale. Those functions that
- have locale-specific aspects only when not in the "C" locale are noted below.
-3 The term printing character refers to a member of a locale-specific set of characters, each
- of which occupies one printing position on a display device; the term control character
- refers to a member of a locale-specific set of characters that are not printing
- characters.199) All letters and digits are printing characters.
- Forward references: EOF (7.21.1), localization (7.11).
- 7.4.1 Character classification functions
-1 The functions in this subclause return nonzero (true) if and only if the value of the
- argument c conforms to that in the description of the function.
- 7.4.1.1 The isalnum function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <ctype.h>
- int isalnum(int c);
- Description
-2 The isalnum function tests for any character for which isalpha or isdigit is true.
- 7.4.1.2 The isalpha function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <ctype.h>
- int isalpha(int c);
- Description
-2 The isalpha function tests for any character for which isupper or islower is true,
- or any character that is one of a locale-specific set of alphabetic characters for which
-
-
-
- 198) See ''future library directions'' (7.30.2).
- 199) In an implementation that uses the seven-bit US 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).
-
-[page 199]
-
- none of iscntrl, isdigit, ispunct, or isspace is true.200) In the "C" locale,
- isalpha returns true only for the characters for which isupper or islower is true.
- 7.4.1.3 The isblank function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <ctype.h>
- int isblank(int c);
- Description
-2 The isblank function tests for any character that is a standard blank character or is one
- of a locale-specific set of characters for which isspace is true and that is used to
- separate words within a line of text. The standard blank characters are the following:
- space (' '), and horizontal tab ('\t'). In the "C" locale, isblank returns true only
- for the standard blank characters.
- 7.4.1.4 The iscntrl function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <ctype.h>
- int iscntrl(int c);

- Description
-2 The islower function tests for any character that is a lowercase letter or is one of a
- locale-specific set of characters for which none of iscntrl, isdigit, ispunct, or
- isspace is true. In the "C" locale, islower returns true only for the lowercase
- letters (as defined in 5.2.1).

-
-[page 201]
-
- white-space characters are the following: space (' '), form feed ('\f'), new-line
- ('\n'), carriage return ('\r'), horizontal tab ('\t'), and vertical tab ('\v'). In the
- "C" locale, isspace returns true only for the standard white-space characters.
- 7.4.1.11 The isupper function
- Synopsis

- letters (as defined in 5.2.1).
- 7.4.1.12 The isxdigit function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <ctype.h>
- int isxdigit(int c);
- Description
-2 The isxdigit function tests for any hexadecimal-digit character (as defined in 6.4.4.1).
- 7.4.2 Character case mapping functions
- 7.4.2.1 The tolower function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <ctype.h>
- int tolower(int c);
- Description
-2 The tolower function converts an uppercase letter to a corresponding lowercase letter.
- Returns
-3 If the argument is a character for which isupper is true and there are one or more
- corresponding characters, as specified by the current locale, for which islower is true,
- the tolower function returns one of the corresponding characters (always the same one
- for any given locale); otherwise, the argument is returned unchanged.
-
-[page 202]
-

- Returns
-3 If the argument is a character for which islower is true and there are one or more
- corresponding characters, as specified by the current locale, for which isupper is true,
- the toupper function returns one of the corresponding characters (always the same one
- for any given locale); otherwise, the argument is returned unchanged.
-
-[page 203]
-
- 7.5 Errors <errno.h>
-1 The header <errno.h> defines several macros, all relating to the reporting of error
- conditions.
-2 The macros are
- EDOM
- EILSEQ
- ERANGE
- which expand to integer constant expressions with type int, distinct positive values, and
- which are suitable for use in #if preprocessing directives; and
- errno
- which expands to a modifiable lvalue201) that has type int and thread local storage
- duration, the value of which is set to a positive error number by several library functions.
- If a macro definition is suppressed in order to access an actual object, or a program
- defines an identifier with the name errno, the behavior is undefined.
-3 The value of errno in the initial thread is zero at program startup (the initial value of
- errno in other threads is an indeterminate value), but is never set to zero by any library
- function.202) 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 this International Standard.
-4 Additional macro definitions, beginning with E and a digit or E and an uppercase
- letter,203) may also be specified by the implementation.
-
-
-
-
- 201) The macro errno need not be the identifier of an object. It might expand to a modifiable lvalue
- resulting from a function call (for example, *errno()).
- 202) 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. Of course, a library function can save the
- value of errno on entry and then set it to zero, as long as the original value is restored if errno's
- value is still zero just before the return.
- 203) See ''future library directions'' (7.30.3).
-
-[page 204]
-
- 7.6 Floating-point environment <fenv.h>
-1 The header <fenv.h> defines several macros, and declares types and functions that
- provide access to the floating-point environment. The floating-point environment refers
- collectively to any floating-point status flags and control modes supported by the
- implementation.204) A floating-point status flag is a system variable whose value is set
- (but never cleared) when a floating-point exception is raised, which occurs as a side effect
- of exceptional floating-point arithmetic to provide auxiliary information.205) A floating-
- point control mode is a system variable whose value may be set by the user to affect the
- subsequent behavior of floating-point arithmetic.
-2 The floating-point environment has thread storage duration. The initial state for a
- thread's floating-point environment is the current state of the floating-point environment
- of the thread that creates it at the time of creation.
-3 Certain programming conventions support the intended model of use for the floating-
- point environment:206)
- -- a function call does not alter its caller's floating-point control modes, clear its caller's
- floating-point status flags, nor depend on the state of its caller's floating-point status
- flags unless the function is so documented;
- -- a function call is assumed to require default floating-point control modes, unless its
- documentation promises otherwise;
- -- a function call is assumed to have the potential for raising floating-point exceptions,
- unless its documentation promises otherwise.
-4 The type
- fenv_t
- represents the entire floating-point environment.
-5 The type
- fexcept_t
- represents the floating-point status flags collectively, including any status the
- implementation associates with the flags.
-
-
- 204) This header is designed to support the floating-point exception status flags and directed-rounding
- control modes required by IEC 60559, and other similar floating-point state information. It is also
- designed to facilitate code portability among all systems.
- 205) A floating-point status flag is not an object and can be set more than once within an expression.
- 206) With these conventions, a programmer can safely assume default floating-point control modes (or be
- unaware of them). The responsibilities associated with accessing the floating-point environment fall
- on the programmer or program that does so explicitly.
-
-[page 205]
-
-6 Each of the macros
- FE_DIVBYZERO
- FE_INEXACT
- FE_INVALID
- FE_OVERFLOW
- FE_UNDERFLOW
- is defined if and only if the implementation supports the floating-point exception by
- means of the functions in 7.6.2.207) Additional implementation-defined floating-point
- exceptions, with macro definitions beginning with FE_ and an uppercase letter, may also
- be specified by the implementation. The defined macros expand to integer constant
- expressions with values such that bitwise ORs of all combinations of the macros result in
- distinct values, and furthermore, bitwise ANDs of all combinations of the macros result in
- zero.208)
-7 The macro
- FE_ALL_EXCEPT
- is simply the bitwise OR of all floating-point exception macros defined by the
- implementation. If no such macros are defined, FE_ALL_EXCEPT shall be defined as 0.
-8 Each of the macros
- FE_DOWNWARD
- FE_TONEAREST
- FE_TOWARDZERO
- FE_UPWARD
- is defined if and only if the implementation supports getting and setting the represented
- rounding direction by means of the fegetround and fesetround functions.
- Additional implementation-defined rounding directions, with macro definitions beginning
- with FE_ and an uppercase letter, may also be specified by the implementation. The
- defined macros expand to integer constant expressions whose values are distinct
- nonnegative values.209)
-9 The macro
-
-
-
- 207) The implementation supports a floating-point exception if there are circumstances where a call to at
- least one of the functions in 7.6.2, using the macro as the appropriate argument, will succeed. It is not
- necessary for all the functions to succeed all the time.
- 208) The macros should be distinct powers of two.
- 209) Even though the rounding direction macros may expand to constants corresponding to the values of
- FLT_ROUNDS, they are not required to do so.
-
-[page 206]
-
- FE_DFL_ENV
- represents the default floating-point environment -- the one installed at program startup
- -- and has type ''pointer to const-qualified fenv_t''. It can be used as an argument to
- <fenv.h> functions that manage the floating-point environment.
-10 Additional implementation-defined environments, with macro definitions beginning with
- FE_ and an uppercase letter, and having type ''pointer to const-qualified fenv_t'', may
- also be specified by the implementation.
- 7.6.1 The FENV_ACCESS pragma
- Synopsis
-1 #include <fenv.h>
- #pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS on-off-switch
- Description
-2 The FENV_ACCESS pragma provides a means to inform the implementation when a
- program might access the floating-point environment to test floating-point status flags or
- run under non-default floating-point control modes.210) The pragma shall occur either
- outside external declarations or preceding all explicit declarations and statements inside a
- compound statement. When outside external declarations, the pragma takes effect from
- its occurrence until another FENV_ACCESS pragma is encountered, or until the end of
- the translation unit. When inside a compound statement, the pragma takes effect from its
- occurrence until another FENV_ACCESS pragma is encountered (including within a
- nested compound statement), or until the end of the compound statement; at the end of a
- compound statement the state for the pragma is restored to its condition just before the
- compound statement. If this pragma is used in any other context, the behavior is
- undefined. If part of a program tests floating-point status flags, sets floating-point control
- modes, or runs under non-default mode settings, but was translated with the state for the
- FENV_ACCESS pragma ''off'', the behavior is undefined. The default state (''on'' or
- ''off'') for the pragma is implementation-defined. (When execution passes from a part of
- the program translated with FENV_ACCESS ''off'' to a part translated with
- FENV_ACCESS ''on'', the state of the floating-point status flags is unspecified and the
- floating-point control modes have their default settings.)
-
-
-
-
- 210) The purpose of the FENV_ACCESS pragma is to allow certain optimizations that could subvert flag
- tests and mode changes (e.g., global common subexpression elimination, code motion, and constant
- folding). In general, if the state of FENV_ACCESS is ''off'', the translator can assume that default
- modes are in effect and the flags are not tested.
-
-[page 207]
-
-3 EXAMPLE
- #include <fenv.h>
- void f(double x)
- {
- #pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS ON
- void g(double);
- void h(double);
- /* ... */
- g(x + 1);
- h(x + 1);
- /* ... */
- }
-4 If the function g might depend on status flags set as a side effect of the first x + 1, or if the second
- x + 1 might depend on control modes set as a side effect of the call to function g, then the program shall
- contain an appropriately placed invocation of #pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS ON.211)
-
- 7.6.2 Floating-point exceptions
-1 The following functions provide access to the floating-point status flags.212) The int
- input argument for the functions represents a subset of floating-point exceptions, and can
- be zero or the bitwise OR of one or more floating-point exception macros, for example
- FE_OVERFLOW | FE_INEXACT. For other argument values the behavior of these
- functions is undefined.
- 7.6.2.1 The feclearexcept function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <fenv.h>
- int feclearexcept(int excepts);
- Description
-2 The feclearexcept function attempts to clear the supported floating-point exceptions
- represented by its argument.
- Returns
-3 The feclearexcept function returns zero if the excepts argument is zero or if all
- the specified exceptions were successfully cleared. Otherwise, it returns a nonzero value.
-
-
- 211) The side effects impose a temporal ordering that requires two evaluations of x + 1. On the other
- hand, without the #pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS ON pragma, and assuming the default state is
- ''off'', just one evaluation of x + 1 would suffice.
- 212) The functions fetestexcept, feraiseexcept, and feclearexcept support the basic
- abstraction of flags that are either set or clear. An implementation may endow floating-point status
- flags with more information -- for example, the address of the code which first raised the floating-
- point exception; the functions fegetexceptflag and fesetexceptflag deal with the full
- content of flags.
-
-[page 208]
-
- 7.6.2.2 The fegetexceptflag function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <fenv.h>
- int fegetexceptflag(fexcept_t *flagp,
- int excepts);
- Description
-2 The fegetexceptflag function attempts to store an implementation-defined
- representation of the states of the floating-point status flags indicated by the argument
- excepts in the object pointed to by the argument flagp.
- Returns
-3 The fegetexceptflag function returns zero if the representation was successfully
- stored. Otherwise, it returns a nonzero value.
- 7.6.2.3 The feraiseexcept function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <fenv.h>
- int feraiseexcept(int excepts);
- Description
-2 The feraiseexcept function attempts to raise the supported floating-point exceptions
- represented by its argument.213) The order in which these floating-point exceptions are
- raised is unspecified, except as stated in F.8.6. Whether the feraiseexcept function
- additionally raises the ''inexact'' floating-point exception whenever it raises the
- ''overflow'' or ''underflow'' floating-point exception is implementation-defined.
- Returns
-3 The feraiseexcept function returns zero if the excepts argument is zero or if all
- the specified exceptions were successfully raised. Otherwise, it returns a nonzero value.
-
-
-
-
- 213) The effect is intended to be similar to that of floating-point exceptions raised by arithmetic operations.
- Hence, enabled traps for floating-point exceptions raised by this function are taken. The specification
- in F.8.6 is in the same spirit.
-
-[page 209]
-
- 7.6.2.4 The fesetexceptflag function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <fenv.h>
- int fesetexceptflag(const fexcept_t *flagp,
- int excepts);
- Description
-2 The fesetexceptflag function attempts to set the floating-point status flags
- indicated by the argument excepts to the states stored in the object pointed to by
- flagp. The value of *flagp shall have been set by a previous call to
- fegetexceptflag whose second argument represented at least those floating-point
- exceptions represented by the argument excepts. This function does not raise floating-
- point exceptions, but only sets the state of the flags.
- Returns
-3 The fesetexceptflag function returns zero if the excepts argument is zero or if
- all the specified flags were successfully set to the appropriate state. Otherwise, it returns
- a nonzero value.
- 7.6.2.5 The fetestexcept function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <fenv.h>
- int fetestexcept(int excepts);
- Description
-2 The fetestexcept function determines which of a specified subset of the floating-
- point exception flags are currently set. The excepts argument specifies the floating-
- point status flags to be queried.214)
- Returns
-3 The fetestexcept function returns the value of the bitwise OR of the floating-point
- exception macros corresponding to the currently set floating-point exceptions included in
- excepts.
-4 EXAMPLE Call f if ''invalid'' is set, then g if ''overflow'' is set:
-
-
-
-
- 214) This mechanism allows testing several floating-point exceptions with just one function call.
-
-[page 210]
-
- #include <fenv.h>
- /* ... */
- {
- #pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS ON
- int set_excepts;
- feclearexcept(FE_INVALID | FE_OVERFLOW);
- // maybe raise exceptions
- set_excepts = fetestexcept(FE_INVALID | FE_OVERFLOW);
- if (set_excepts & FE_INVALID) f();
- if (set_excepts & FE_OVERFLOW) g();
- /* ... */
- }
-
- 7.6.3 Rounding
-1 The fegetround and fesetround functions provide control of rounding direction
- modes.
- 7.6.3.1 The fegetround function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <fenv.h>
- int fegetround(void);
- Description
-2 The fegetround function gets the current rounding direction.
- Returns
-3 The fegetround function returns the value of the rounding direction macro
- representing the current rounding direction or a negative value if there is no such
- rounding direction macro or the current rounding direction is not determinable.
- 7.6.3.2 The fesetround function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <fenv.h>
- int fesetround(int round);
- Description
-2 The fesetround function establishes the rounding direction represented by its
- argument round. If the argument is not equal to the value of a rounding direction macro,
- the rounding direction is not changed.
- Returns
-3 The fesetround function returns zero if and only if the requested rounding direction
- was established.
-
-[page 211]
-
-4 EXAMPLE Save, set, and restore the rounding direction. Report an error and abort if setting the
- rounding direction fails.
- #include <fenv.h>
- #include <assert.h>
- void f(int round_dir)
- {
- #pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS ON
- int save_round;
- int setround_ok;
- save_round = fegetround();
- setround_ok = fesetround(round_dir);
- assert(setround_ok == 0);
- /* ... */
- fesetround(save_round);
- /* ... */
- }
-
- 7.6.4 Environment
-1 The functions in this section manage the floating-point environment -- status flags and
- control modes -- as one entity.
- 7.6.4.1 The fegetenv function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <fenv.h>
- int fegetenv(fenv_t *envp);
- Description
-2 The fegetenv function attempts to store the current floating-point environment in the
- object pointed to by envp.
- Returns
-3 The fegetenv function returns zero if the environment was successfully stored.
- Otherwise, it returns a nonzero value.
- 7.6.4.2 The feholdexcept function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <fenv.h>
- int feholdexcept(fenv_t *envp);
- Description
-2 The feholdexcept function saves the current floating-point environment in the object
- pointed to by envp, clears the floating-point status flags, and then installs a non-stop
- (continue on floating-point exceptions) mode, if available, for all floating-point
- exceptions.215)
-
-[page 212]
-
- Returns
-3 The feholdexcept function returns zero if and only if non-stop floating-point
- exception handling was successfully installed.
- 7.6.4.3 The fesetenv function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <fenv.h>
- int fesetenv(const fenv_t *envp);
- Description
-2 The fesetenv function attempts to establish the floating-point environment represented
- by the object pointed to by envp. The argument envp shall point to an object set by a
- call to fegetenv or feholdexcept, or equal a floating-point environment macro.
- Note that fesetenv merely installs the state of the floating-point status flags
- represented through its argument, and does not raise these floating-point exceptions.
- Returns
-3 The fesetenv function returns zero if the environment was successfully established.
- Otherwise, it returns a nonzero value.
- 7.6.4.4 The feupdateenv function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <fenv.h>
- int feupdateenv(const fenv_t *envp);
- Description
-2 The feupdateenv function attempts to save the currently raised floating-point
- exceptions in its automatic storage, install the floating-point environment represented by
- the object pointed to by envp, and then raise the saved floating-point exceptions. The
- argument envp shall point to an object set by a call to feholdexcept or fegetenv,
- or equal a floating-point environment macro.
- Returns
-3 The feupdateenv function returns zero if all the actions were successfully carried out.
- Otherwise, it returns a nonzero value.
-
-
-
-
- 215) IEC 60559 systems have a default non-stop mode, and typically at least one other mode for trap
- handling or aborting; if the system provides only the non-stop mode then installing it is trivial. For
- such systems, the feholdexcept function can be used in conjunction with the feupdateenv
- function to write routines that hide spurious floating-point exceptions from their callers.

- 7.7 Characteristics of floating types <float.h>
-1 The header <float.h> defines several macros that expand to various limits and
- parameters of the standard floating-point types.
-2 The macros, their meanings, and the constraints (or restrictions) on their values are listed
- in 5.2.4.2.2.
-
-[page 215]
-
- 7.8 Format conversion of integer types <inttypes.h>
-1 The header <inttypes.h> includes the header <stdint.h> and extends it with
- additional facilities provided by hosted implementations.
-2 It declares functions for manipulating greatest-width integers and converting numeric
- character strings to greatest-width integers, and it declares the type
- imaxdiv_t
- which is a structure type that is the type of the value returned by the imaxdiv function.
- For each type declared in <stdint.h>, it defines corresponding macros for conversion
- specifiers for use with the formatted input/output functions.216)
- Forward references: integer types <stdint.h> (7.20), formatted input/output
- functions (7.21.6), formatted wide character input/output functions (7.28.2).
- 7.8.1 Macros for format specifiers
-1 Each of the following object-like macros expands to a character string literal containing a *
- conversion specifier, possibly modified by a length modifier, suitable for use within the
- format argument of a formatted input/output function when converting the corresponding
- integer type. These macro names have the general form of PRI (character string literals
- for the fprintf and fwprintf family) or SCN (character string literals for the
- fscanf and fwscanf family),217) followed by the conversion specifier, followed by a
- name corresponding to a similar type name in 7.20.1. In these names, N represents the
- width of the type as described in 7.20.1. For example, PRIdFAST32 can be used in a
- format string to print the value of an integer of type int_fast32_t.
-2 The fprintf macros for signed integers are:
- PRIdN PRIdLEASTN PRIdFASTN PRIdMAX PRIdPTR
- PRIiN PRIiLEASTN PRIiFASTN PRIiMAX PRIiPTR
-3 The fprintf macros for unsigned integers are:
- PRIoN PRIoLEASTN PRIoFASTN PRIoMAX PRIoPTR
- PRIuN PRIuLEASTN PRIuFASTN PRIuMAX PRIuPTR
- PRIxN PRIxLEASTN PRIxFASTN PRIxMAX PRIxPTR
- PRIXN PRIXLEASTN PRIXFASTN PRIXMAX PRIXPTR
-4 The fscanf macros for signed integers are:
-
-
-
- 216) See ''future library directions'' (7.30.4).
- 217) Separate macros are given for use with fprintf and fscanf functions because, in the general case,
- different format specifiers may be required for fprintf and fscanf, even when the type is the
- same.
-
-[page 216]
-
- SCNdN SCNdLEASTN SCNdFASTN SCNdMAX SCNdPTR
- SCNiN SCNiLEASTN SCNiFASTN SCNiMAX SCNiPTR
-5 The fscanf macros for unsigned integers are:
- SCNoN SCNoLEASTN SCNoFASTN SCNoMAX SCNoPTR
- SCNuN SCNuLEASTN SCNuFASTN SCNuMAX SCNuPTR
- SCNxN SCNxLEASTN SCNxFASTN SCNxMAX SCNxPTR
-6 For each type that the implementation provides in <stdint.h>, the corresponding
- fprintf macros shall be defined and the corresponding fscanf macros shall be
- defined unless the implementation does not have a suitable fscanf length modifier for
- the type.
-7 EXAMPLE
- #include <inttypes.h>
- #include <wchar.h>
- int main(void)
- {
- uintmax_t i = UINTMAX_MAX; // this type always exists
- wprintf(L"The largest integer value is %020"
- PRIxMAX "\n", i);
- return 0;
- }
-
- 7.8.2 Functions for greatest-width integer types

- Synopsis
-1 #include <inttypes.h>
- intmax_t imaxabs(intmax_t j);
- Description
-2 The imaxabs function computes the absolute value of an integer j. If the result cannot
- be represented, the behavior is undefined.218)
- Returns
-3 The imaxabs function returns the absolute value.
-
-
-
-
- 218) The absolute value of the most negative number cannot be represented in two's complement.
-
-[page 217]
-
- 7.8.2.2 The imaxdiv function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <inttypes.h>
- imaxdiv_t imaxdiv(intmax_t numer, intmax_t denom);
- Description
-2 The imaxdiv function computes numer / denom and numer % denom in a single
- operation.
- Returns
-3 The imaxdiv function returns a structure of type imaxdiv_t comprising both the
- quotient and the remainder. The structure shall contain (in either order) the members
- quot (the quotient) and rem (the remainder), each of which has type intmax_t. If
- either part of the result cannot be represented, the behavior is undefined.
- 7.8.2.3 The strtoimax and strtoumax functions
- Synopsis

- intmax_t strtoimax(const char * restrict nptr,
- char ** restrict endptr, int base);
- uintmax_t strtoumax(const char * restrict nptr,
- char ** restrict endptr, int base);
- Description
-2 The strtoimax and strtoumax functions are equivalent to the strtol, strtoll,
- strtoul, and strtoull functions, except that the initial portion of the string is
- converted to intmax_t and uintmax_t representation, respectively.
- Returns
-3 The strtoimax and strtoumax functions return the converted value, if any. If no
- conversion could be performed, zero is returned. If the correct value is outside the range
- of representable values, INTMAX_MAX, INTMAX_MIN, or UINTMAX_MAX is returned
- (according to the return type and sign of the value, if any), and the value of the macro
- ERANGE is stored in errno.

- wchar_t ** restrict endptr, int base);
- Description
-2 The wcstoimax and wcstoumax functions are equivalent to the wcstol, wcstoll,
- wcstoul, and wcstoull functions except that the initial portion of the wide string is
- converted to intmax_t and uintmax_t representation, respectively.
- Returns
-3 The wcstoimax function returns the converted value, if any. If no conversion could be
- performed, zero is returned. If the correct value is outside the range of representable
- values, INTMAX_MAX, INTMAX_MIN, or UINTMAX_MAX is returned (according to the
- return type and sign of the value, if any), and the value of the macro ERANGE is stored in
- errno.

- in 5.2.4.2.1.
-
-[page 221]
-
- 7.11 Localization <locale.h>
-1 The header <locale.h> declares two functions, one type, and defines several macros.
-2 The type is
- struct lconv
- which contains members related to the formatting of numeric values. The structure shall
- contain at least the following members, in any order. The semantics of the members and

-3 The macros defined are NULL (described in 7.19); and
- LC_ALL
- LC_COLLATE
- LC_CTYPE
- LC_MONETARY
- LC_NUMERIC
- LC_TIME
- which expand to integer constant expressions with distinct values, suitable for use as the
- first argument to the setlocale function.219) Additional macro definitions, beginning
- with the characters LC_ and an uppercase letter,220) may also be specified by the
- implementation.
- 7.11.1 Locale control
- 7.11.1.1 The setlocale function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <locale.h>
- char *setlocale(int category, const char *locale);
- Description
-2 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 functions221) and the multibyte and wide character 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
- nonmonetary formatting information returned by the localeconv function. LC_TIME
- affects the behavior of the strftime and wcsftime functions.
-3 A value of "C" for locale specifies the minimal environment for C translation; a value
- of "" for locale specifies the locale-specific native environment. Other
- implementation-defined strings may be passed as the second argument to setlocale.
-
- 219) ISO/IEC 9945-2 specifies locale and charmap formats that may be used to specify locales for C.
- 220) See ''future library directions'' (7.30.5).
- 221) The only functions in 7.4 whose behavior is not affected by the current locale are isdigit and
- isxdigit.
-
-[page 223]
-
-4 At program startup, the equivalent of
- setlocale(LC_ALL, "C");
- is executed.
-5 A call to the setlocale function may introduce a data race with other calls to the
- setlocale function or with calls to functions that are affected by the current locale.
- The implementation shall behave as if no library function calls the setlocale function.
- Returns
-6 If a pointer to a string is given for locale and the selection can be honored, the
- setlocale function returns a pointer to 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.
-7 A null pointer for locale causes the setlocale function to return a pointer to the
- string associated with the category for the program's current locale; the program's
- locale is not changed.222)
-8 The pointer to string returned by the setlocale function is such that a subsequent call
- with that string value and its associated category will restore that part of the program's
- locale. The string pointed to shall not be modified by the program, but may be
- overwritten by a subsequent call to the setlocale function.
- Forward references: formatted input/output functions (7.21.6), multibyte/wide
- character conversion functions (7.22.7), multibyte/wide string conversion functions
- (7.22.8), numeric conversion functions (7.22.1), the strcoll function (7.23.4.3), the
- strftime function (7.26.3.5), the strxfrm function (7.23.4.5).
- 7.11.2 Numeric formatting convention inquiry
- 7.11.2.1 The localeconv function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <locale.h>
- struct lconv *localeconv(void);
- Description
-2 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.
-
-
-
- 222) The implementation shall arrange to encode in a string the various categories due to a heterogeneous
- locale when category has the value LC_ALL.
-
-[page 224]
-
-3 The members of the structure with type char * are pointers to 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. Apart from grouping and mon_grouping, the
- strings shall start and end in the initial shift state. 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:
- char *decimal_point
- The decimal-point character used to format nonmonetary quantities.
- char *thousands_sep
- The character used to separate groups of digits before the decimal-point
- character in formatted nonmonetary quantities.

- A string whose elements indicate the size of each group of digits in
- formatted nonmonetary quantities.
- char *mon_decimal_point
- The decimal-point used to format monetary quantities.
- char *mon_thousands_sep

- formatted monetary quantities.
- char *positive_sign
- The string used to indicate a nonnegative-valued formatted monetary
- quantity.
- char *negative_sign
- The string used to indicate a negative-valued formatted monetary quantity.
- char *currency_symbol
- The local currency symbol applicable to the current locale.
- char frac_digits
- The number of fractional digits (those after the decimal-point) to be
- displayed in a locally formatted monetary quantity.
- char p_cs_precedes
- Set to 1 or 0 if the currency_symbol respectively precedes or
- succeeds the value for a nonnegative locally formatted monetary quantity.
-
-[page 225]
-
-char n_cs_precedes
- Set to 1 or 0 if the currency_symbol respectively precedes or
- succeeds the value for a negative locally formatted monetary quantity.
-char p_sep_by_space
- Set to a value indicating the separation of the currency_symbol, the
- sign string, and the value for a nonnegative locally formatted monetary
- quantity.
-char n_sep_by_space
- Set to a value indicating the separation of the currency_symbol, the
- sign string, and the value for a negative locally formatted monetary
- quantity.
-char p_sign_posn
- Set to a value indicating the positioning of the positive_sign for a
- nonnegative locally formatted monetary quantity.
-char n_sign_posn
- Set to a value indicating the positioning of the negative_sign for a
- negative locally formatted monetary quantity.
-char *int_curr_symbol
- 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. The fourth character
- (immediately preceding the null character) is the character used to separate
- the international currency symbol from the monetary quantity.
-char int_frac_digits
- The number of fractional digits (those after the decimal-point) to be
- displayed in an internationally formatted monetary quantity.
-char int_p_cs_precedes
- Set to 1 or 0 if the int_curr_symbol respectively precedes or
- succeeds the value for a nonnegative internationally formatted monetary
- quantity.
-char int_n_cs_precedes
- Set to 1 or 0 if the int_curr_symbol respectively precedes or
- succeeds the value for a negative internationally formatted monetary
- quantity.
-char int_p_sep_by_space
- Set to a value indicating the separation of the int_curr_symbol, the
- sign string, and the value for a nonnegative internationally formatted
- monetary quantity.
-
-[page 226]
-
- char int_n_sep_by_space
- Set to a value indicating the separation of the int_curr_symbol, the
- sign string, and the value for a negative internationally formatted monetary
- quantity.
- char int_p_sign_posn
- Set to a value indicating the positioning of the positive_sign for a
- nonnegative internationally formatted monetary quantity.
- char int_n_sign_posn
- Set to a value indicating the positioning of the negative_sign for a
- negative internationally formatted monetary quantity.
-4 The elements of grouping and mon_grouping are interpreted according to the
- following:
- CHAR_MAX No further grouping is to be performed.
- 0 The previous element is to be repeatedly used for the remainder of the
- digits.
- other The integer value is the number of digits that compose the current group.
- The next element is examined to determine the size of the next group of
- digits before the current group.
-5 The values of p_sep_by_space, n_sep_by_space, int_p_sep_by_space,
- and int_n_sep_by_space are interpreted according to the following:
- 0 No space separates the currency symbol and value.
- 1 If the currency symbol and sign string are adjacent, a space separates them from the
- value; otherwise, a space separates the currency symbol from the value.
- 2 If the currency symbol and sign string are adjacent, a space separates them;
- otherwise, a space separates the sign string from the value.
- For int_p_sep_by_space and int_n_sep_by_space, the fourth character of
- int_curr_symbol is used instead of a space.
-6 The values of p_sign_posn, n_sign_posn, int_p_sign_posn, and
- int_n_sign_posn are interpreted according to the following:
- 0 Parentheses surround the quantity and currency symbol.
- 1 The sign string precedes the quantity and currency symbol.
- 2 The sign string succeeds the quantity and currency symbol.
- 3 The sign string immediately precedes the currency symbol.
- 4 The sign string immediately succeeds the currency symbol.
-
-[page 227]
-
-7 The implementation shall behave as if no library function calls the localeconv
- function.
- Returns
-8 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.

- 7.12 Mathematics <math.h>
-1 The header <math.h> declares two types and many mathematical functions and defines
- several macros. Most synopses specify a family of functions consisting of a principal
- function with one or more double parameters, a double return value, or both; and
- other functions with the same name but with f and l suffixes, which are corresponding
- functions with float and long double parameters, return values, or both.223)
- Integer arithmetic functions and conversion functions are discussed later.
-2 The types
- float_t
- double_t
- are floating types at least as wide as float and double, respectively, and such that
- double_t is at least as wide as float_t. If FLT_EVAL_METHOD equals 0,
- float_t and double_t are float and double, respectively; if
- FLT_EVAL_METHOD equals 1, they are both double; if FLT_EVAL_METHOD equals
- 2, they are both long double; and for other values of FLT_EVAL_METHOD, they are
- otherwise implementation-defined.224)
-3 The macro
- HUGE_VAL
- expands to a positive double constant expression, not necessarily representable as a
- float. The macros
- HUGE_VALF
- HUGE_VALL
- are respectively float and long double analogs of HUGE_VAL.225)
-4 The macro
- INFINITY
- expands to a constant expression of type float representing positive or unsigned
- infinity, if available; else to a positive constant of type float that overflows at
-
-
-
- 223) Particularly on systems with wide expression evaluation, a <math.h> function might pass arguments
- and return values in wider format than the synopsis prototype indicates.
- 224) The types float_t and double_t are intended to be the implementation's most efficient types at
- least as wide as float and double, respectively. For FLT_EVAL_METHOD equal 0, 1, or 2, the
- type float_t is the narrowest type used by the implementation to evaluate floating expressions.
- 225) HUGE_VAL, HUGE_VALF, and HUGE_VALL can be positive infinities in an implementation that
- supports infinities.
-
-[page 230]
-
- translation time.226)
-5 The macro
- NAN
- is defined if and only if the implementation supports quiet NaNs for the float type. It
- expands to a constant expression of type float representing a quiet NaN.
-6 The number classification macros
- FP_INFINITE
- FP_NAN
- FP_NORMAL
- FP_SUBNORMAL
- FP_ZERO
- represent the mutually exclusive kinds of floating-point values. They expand to integer
- constant expressions with distinct values. Additional implementation-defined floating-
- point classifications, with macro definitions beginning with FP_ and an uppercase letter,
- may also be specified by the implementation.
-7 The macro
- FP_FAST_FMA
- is optionally defined. If defined, it indicates that the fma function generally executes
- about as fast as, or faster than, a multiply and an add of double operands.227) The
- macros
- FP_FAST_FMAF
- FP_FAST_FMAL
- are, respectively, float and long double analogs of FP_FAST_FMA. If defined,
- these macros expand to the integer constant 1.
-8 The macros
- FP_ILOGB0
- FP_ILOGBNAN
- expand to integer constant expressions whose values are returned by ilogb(x) if x is
- zero or NaN, respectively. The value of FP_ILOGB0 shall be either INT_MIN or
- -INT_MAX. The value of FP_ILOGBNAN shall be either INT_MAX or INT_MIN.
-
-
- 226) In this case, using INFINITY will violate the constraint in 6.4.4 and thus require a diagnostic.
- 227) Typically, the FP_FAST_FMA macro is defined if and only if the fma function is implemented
- directly with a hardware multiply-add instruction. Software implementations are expected to be
- substantially slower.
-
-[page 231]
-
-9 The macros
- MATH_ERRNO
- MATH_ERREXCEPT
- expand to the integer constants 1 and 2, respectively; the macro
- math_errhandling
- expands to an expression that has type int and the value MATH_ERRNO,
- MATH_ERREXCEPT, or the bitwise OR of both. The value of math_errhandling is
- constant for the duration of the program. It is unspecified whether
- math_errhandling is a macro or an identifier with external linkage. If a macro
- definition is suppressed or a program defines an identifier with the name
- math_errhandling, the behavior is undefined. If the expression
- math_errhandling & MATH_ERREXCEPT can be nonzero, the implementation
- shall define the macros FE_DIVBYZERO, FE_INVALID, and FE_OVERFLOW in
- <fenv.h>.
- 7.12.1 Treatment of error conditions
-1 The behavior of each of the functions in <math.h> is specified for all representable
- values of its input arguments, except where stated otherwise. Each function shall execute
- as if it were a single operation without raising SIGFPE and without generating any of the
- floating-point exceptions ''invalid'', ''divide-by-zero'', or ''overflow'' except to reflect
- the result of the function.
-2 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.228) On a
- domain error, the function returns an implementation-defined value; if the integer
- expression math_errhandling & MATH_ERRNO is nonzero, the integer expression
- errno acquires the value EDOM; if the integer expression math_errhandling &
- MATH_ERREXCEPT is nonzero, the ''invalid'' floating-point exception is raised.
-3 Similarly, a pole error (also known as a singularity or infinitary) occurs if the
- mathematical function has an exact infinite result as the finite input argument(s) are
- approached in the limit (for example, log(0.0)). The description of each function lists
- any required pole errors; an implementation may define additional pole errors, provided
- that such errors are consistent with the mathematical definition of the function. On a pole
- error, the function returns an implementation-defined value; if the integer expression

-
- 228) In an implementation that supports infinities, this allows an infinity as an argument to be a domain
- error if the mathematical domain of the function does not include the infinity.

-
- math_errhandling & MATH_ERRNO is nonzero, the integer expression errno
- acquires the value ERANGE; if the integer expression math_errhandling &
- MATH_ERREXCEPT is nonzero, the ''divide-by-zero'' floating-point exception is raised.
-4 Likewise, a range error occurs if the mathematical result of the function cannot be
- represented in an object of the specified type, due to extreme magnitude.
-5 A floating result overflows if the magnitude of the mathematical result is finite but so
- large that the mathematical result cannot be represented without extraordinary roundoff
- error in an object of the specified type. If a floating result overflows and default rounding
- is in effect, then the function returns the value of the macro HUGE_VAL, HUGE_VALF, or *
- HUGE_VALL according to the return type, with the same sign as the correct value of the
- function; if the integer expression math_errhandling & MATH_ERRNO is nonzero,
- the integer expression errno acquires the value ERANGE; if the integer expression
- math_errhandling & MATH_ERREXCEPT is nonzero, the ''overflow'' floating-
- point exception is raised.
-6 The result underflows if the magnitude of the mathematical result is so small that the
- mathematical result cannot be represented, without extraordinary roundoff error, in an
- object of the specified type.229) If the result underflows, the function returns an
- implementation-defined value whose magnitude is no greater than the smallest
- normalized positive number in the specified type; if the integer expression
- math_errhandling & MATH_ERRNO is nonzero, whether errno acquires the
- value ERANGE is implementation-defined; if the integer expression
- math_errhandling & MATH_ERREXCEPT is nonzero, whether the ''underflow''
- floating-point exception is raised is implementation-defined.
-7 If a domain, pole, or range error occurs and the integer expression
- math_errhandling & MATH_ERRNO is zero,230) then errno shall either be set to
- the value corresponding to the error or left unmodified. If no such error occurs, errno
- shall be left unmodified regardless of the setting of math_errhandling.
-
-
-
-
- 229) The term underflow here is intended to encompass both ''gradual underflow'' as in IEC 60559 and
- also ''flush-to-zero'' underflow.
- 230) Math errors are being indicated by the floating-point exception flags rather than by errno.

- 7.12.2 The FP_CONTRACT pragma
- Synopsis
-1 #include <math.h>
- #pragma STDC FP_CONTRACT on-off-switch
- Description
-2 The FP_CONTRACT pragma can be used to allow (if the state is ''on'') or disallow (if the
- state is ''off'') the implementation to contract expressions (6.5). Each pragma can occur
- either outside external declarations or preceding all explicit declarations and statements
- inside a compound statement. When outside external declarations, the pragma takes
- effect from its occurrence until another FP_CONTRACT pragma is encountered, or until
- the end of the translation unit. When inside a compound statement, the pragma takes
- effect from its occurrence until another FP_CONTRACT pragma is encountered
- (including within a nested compound statement), or until the end of the compound
- statement; at the end of a compound statement the state for the pragma is restored to its
- condition just before the compound statement. If this pragma is used in any other
- context, the behavior is undefined. The default state (''on'' or ''off'') for the pragma is
- implementation-defined.

- Returns
-3 The fpclassify macro returns the value of the number classification macro
- appropriate to the value of its argument. *
-
-
- 231) Since an expression can be evaluated with more range and precision than its type has, it is important to

- all implementations.
-
-[page 253]

- Description
-2 The copysign functions produce a value with the magnitude of x and the sign of y.
- They produce a NaN (with the sign of y) if x is a NaN. On implementations that

- current rounding mode. A range error may occur.
- Returns
-3 The fma functions return (x x y) + z, rounded as one ternary operation.
-
-
-
-
- 239) NaN arguments are treated as missing data: if one argument is a NaN and the other numeric, then the

-
- 7.12.14 Comparison macros
-1 The relational and equality operators support the usual mathematical relationships
- between numeric values. For any ordered pair of numeric values exactly one of the
- relationships -- less, greater, and equal -- is true. Relational operators may raise the
- ''invalid'' floating-point exception when argument values are NaNs. For a NaN and a
- numeric value, or for two NaNs, just the unordered relationship is true.241) The following
- subclauses provide macros that are quiet (non floating-point exception raising) versions
- of the relational operators, and other comparison macros that facilitate writing efficient
- code that accounts for NaNs without suffering the ''invalid'' floating-point exception. In
- the synopses in this subclause, real-floating indicates that the argument shall be an
- expression of real floating type242) (both arguments need not have the same type).243)
- 7.12.14.1 The isgreater macro
- Synopsis
-1 #include <math.h>
- int isgreater(real-floating x, real-floating y);
- Description
-2 The isgreater macro determines whether its first argument is greater than its second
- argument. The value of isgreater(x, y) is always equal to (x) > (y); however,
- unlike (x) > (y), isgreater(x, y) does not raise the ''invalid'' floating-point
- exception when x and y are unordered.
- Returns
-3 The isgreater macro returns the value of (x) > (y).
- 7.12.14.2 The isgreaterequal macro
- Synopsis
-1 #include <math.h>
- int isgreaterequal(real-floating x, real-floating y);
-
-
-
-
- 241) IEC 60559 requires that the built-in relational operators raise the ''invalid'' floating-point exception if
- the operands compare unordered, as an error indicator for programs written without consideration of
- NaNs; the result in these cases is false.
- 242) If any argument is of integer type, or any other type that is not a real floating type, the behavior is
- undefined.
- 243) Whether an argument represented in a format wider than its semantic type is converted to the semantic
- type is unspecified.
-
-[page 258]
-
- Description
-2 The isgreaterequal macro determines whether its first argument is greater than or
- equal to its second argument. The value of isgreaterequal(x, y) is always equal
- to (x) >= (y); however, unlike (x) >= (y), isgreaterequal(x, y) does
- not raise the ''invalid'' floating-point exception when x and y are unordered.
- Returns
-3 The isgreaterequal macro returns the value of (x) >= (y).
- 7.12.14.3 The isless macro
- Synopsis
-1 #include <math.h>
- int isless(real-floating x, real-floating y);
- Description
-2 The isless macro determines whether its first argument is less than its second
- argument. The value of isless(x, y) is always equal to (x) < (y); however,
- unlike (x) < (y), isless(x, y) does not raise the ''invalid'' floating-point
- exception when x and y are unordered.
- Returns
-3 The isless macro returns the value of (x) < (y).
- 7.12.14.4 The islessequal macro
- Synopsis
-1 #include <math.h>
- int islessequal(real-floating x, real-floating y);
- Description
-2 The islessequal macro determines whether its first argument is less than or equal to
- its second argument. The value of islessequal(x, y) is always equal to
- (x) <= (y); however, unlike (x) <= (y), islessequal(x, y) does not raise
- the ''invalid'' floating-point exception when x and y are unordered.
- Returns
-3 The islessequal macro returns the value of (x) <= (y).
-
-[page 259]
-
- 7.12.14.5 The islessgreater macro
- Synopsis
-1 #include <math.h>
- int islessgreater(real-floating x, real-floating y);
- Description
-2 The islessgreater macro determines whether its first argument is less than or
- greater than its second argument. The islessgreater(x, y) macro is similar to
- (x) < (y) || (x) > (y); however, islessgreater(x, y) does not raise
- the ''invalid'' floating-point exception when x and y are unordered (nor does it evaluate x
- and y twice).
- Returns
-3 The islessgreater macro returns the value of (x) < (y) || (x) > (y).
- 7.12.14.6 The isunordered macro
- Synopsis
-1 #include <math.h>

-
-[page 260]
-
- 7.13 Nonlocal jumps <setjmp.h>
-1 The header <setjmp.h> defines the macro setjmp, and declares one function and
- one type, for bypassing the normal function call and return discipline.244)
-2 The type declared is
- jmp_buf
- which is an array type suitable for holding the information needed to restore a calling
- environment. The environment of a call to the setjmp macro consists of information
- sufficient for a call to the longjmp function to return execution to the correct block and
- invocation of that block, were it called recursively. It does not include the state of the
- floating-point status flags, of open files, or of any other component of the abstract
- machine.
-3 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.
- 7.13.1 Save calling environment
- 7.13.1.1 The setjmp macro
- Synopsis
-1 #include <setjmp.h>
- int setjmp(jmp_buf env);
- Description
-2 The setjmp macro saves its calling environment in its jmp_buf argument for later use
- by the longjmp function.
- Returns
-3 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 limits
-4 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;
- -- one operand of a relational or equality operator with the other operand an integer
- constant expression, with the resulting expression being the entire controlling
-
-
- 244) These functions are useful for dealing with unusual conditions encountered in a low-level function of
- a program.
-
-[page 261]
-
- 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).
-5 If the invocation appears in any other context, the behavior is undefined.
- 7.13.2 Restore calling environment
- 7.13.2.1 The longjmp function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <setjmp.h>
- _Noreturn void longjmp(jmp_buf env, int val);
- Description
-2 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 execution245) in the interim, or if the
- invocation of the setjmp macro was within the scope of an identifier with variably
- modified type and execution has left that scope in the interim, the behavior is undefined.
-3 All accessible objects have values, and all other components of the abstract machine246)
- have state, as of the time the longjmp function was called, except that the values of
- objects of automatic storage duration that are local to the function containing the
- invocation of the corresponding setjmp macro that do not have volatile-qualified type
- and have been changed between the setjmp invocation and longjmp call are
- indeterminate.
- Returns
-4 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.
-5 EXAMPLE The longjmp function that returns control back to the point of the setjmp invocation
- might cause memory associated with a variable length array object to be squandered.
-
-
-
-
- 245) 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.
- 246) This includes, but is not limited to, the floating-point status flags and the state of open files.

- 7.14 Signal handling <signal.h>
-1 The header <signal.h> declares a type and two functions and defines several macros,
- for handling various signals (conditions that may be reported during program execution).
-2 The type defined is
- sig_atomic_t
- which is the (possibly volatile-qualified) integer type of an object that can be accessed as
- an atomic entity, even in the presence of asynchronous interrupts.
-3 The macros defined are
- SIG_DFL
- SIG_ERR
- SIG_IGN
- which expand to constant expressions with distinct values that have type compatible with
- the second argument to, and the return value of, the signal function, and whose values
- compare unequal to the address of any declarable function; and the following, which
- expand to positive integer constant expressions with type int and distinct values that are
- the signal numbers, each 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 invalid instruction
- SIGINT receipt of an interactive attention signal
- SIGSEGV an invalid access to storage
- SIGTERM a termination request sent to the program
-4 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 uppercase
- letter or with SIG_ and an uppercase letter,247) may also be specified by the
- implementation. The complete set of signals, their semantics, and their default handling
- is implementation-defined; all signal numbers shall be positive.
-
-
-
-
- 247) See ''future library directions'' (7.30.6). The names of the signal numbers reflect the following terms
- (respectively): abort, floating-point exception, illegal instruction, interrupt, segmentation violation,
- and termination.
-
-[page 264]
-
- 7.14.1 Specify signal handling
- 7.14.1.1 The signal function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <signal.h>
- void (*signal(int sig, void (*func)(int)))(int);
- Description
-2 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. An
- invocation of such a function because of a signal, or (recursively) of any further functions
- called by that invocation (other than functions in the standard library),248) is called a
- signal handler.
-3 When a signal occurs and func points to a function, it is implementation-defined
- whether the equivalent of signal(sig, SIG_DFL); is executed or the
- implementation prevents some implementation-defined set of signals (at least including
- sig) from occurring until the current signal handling has completed; in the case of
- SIGILL, the implementation may alternatively define that no action is taken. Then the
- equivalent of (*func)(sig); is executed. If and when the function returns, if the
- value of sig is SIGFPE, SIGILL, SIGSEGV, 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.
-4 If the signal occurs as the result of calling the abort or raise function, the signal
- handler shall not call the raise function.
-5 If the signal occurs other than as the result of calling the abort or raise function, the
- behavior is undefined if the signal handler refers to any object with static or thread
- storage duration that is not a lock-free atomic object other than by assigning a value to an
- object declared as volatile sig_atomic_t, or the signal handler calls any function
- in the standard library other than the abort function, the _Exit function, the
- quick_exit function, or the signal function with the first argument equal to the
- signal number corresponding to the signal that caused the invocation of the handler.
- Furthermore, if such a call to the signal function results in a SIG_ERR return, the
- value of errno is indeterminate.249)
-
-
- 248) This includes functions called indirectly via standard library functions (e.g., a SIGABRT handler
- called via the abort function).
- 249) If any signal is generated by an asynchronous signal handler, the behavior is undefined.
-
-[page 265]
-
-6 At program startup, the equivalent of
- 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.
-7 The implementation shall behave as if no library function calls the signal function.
- Returns
-8 If the request can be honored, the signal function returns the value of func for the
- most recent successful call to signal for the specified signal sig. Otherwise, a value of
- SIG_ERR is returned and a positive value is stored in errno.
- Forward references: the abort function (7.22.4.1), the exit function (7.22.4.4), the
- _Exit function (7.22.4.5), the quick_exit function (7.22.4.7).
- 7.14.2 Send signal
- 7.14.2.1 The raise function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <signal.h>
- int raise(int sig);
- Description
-2 The raise function carries out the actions described in 7.14.1.1 for the signal sig. If a
- signal handler is called, the raise function shall not return until after the signal handler
- does.
- Returns
-3 The raise function returns zero if successful, nonzero if unsuccessful.
-
-[page 266]
-
- 7.15 Alignment <stdalign.h>
-1 The header <stdalign.h> defines two macros.
-2 The macro
- alignas
- expands to _Alignas.
-3 The remaining macro is suitable for use in #if preprocessing directives. It is
- __alignas_is_defined
- which expands to the integer constant 1.
-
-[page 267]
-
- 7.16 Variable arguments <stdarg.h>
-1 The header <stdarg.h> declares a type and defines four macros, for advancing
- through a list of arguments whose number and types are not known to the called function
- when it is translated.
-2 A function may be called with a variable number of arguments of varying types. As
- described in 6.9.1, 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.
-3 The type declared is
- va_list
- which is a complete object type suitable for holding information needed by the macros
- va_start, va_arg, va_end, and va_copy. If access to the varying arguments is
- desired, the called function shall declare an object (generally referred to as ap in this
- subclause) 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.250)
- 7.16.1 Variable argument list access macros
-1 The va_start and va_arg macros described in this subclause shall be implemented
- as macros, not functions. It is unspecified whether va_copy and va_end are macros or
- identifiers 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 same name,
- the behavior is undefined. Each invocation of the va_start and va_copy macros
- shall be matched by a corresponding invocation of the va_end macro in the same
- function.
- 7.16.1.1 The va_arg macro
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdarg.h>
- type va_arg(va_list ap, type);
- Description
-2 The va_arg macro expands to an expression that has the specified type and the value of
- the next argument in the call. The parameter ap shall have been initialized by the
- va_start or va_copy macro (without an intervening invocation of the va_end
-
- 250) It is permitted to create a pointer to a va_list and pass that pointer to another function, in which
- case the original function may make further use of the original list after the other function returns.
-
-[page 268]
-
- macro for the same ap). Each invocation of the va_arg macro modifies ap so that the
- values of successive arguments are returned in turn. The parameter type shall be 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, except for the following
- cases:
- -- one type is a signed integer type, the other type is the corresponding unsigned integer
- type, and the value is representable in both types;
- -- one type is pointer to void and the other is a pointer to a character type.
- Returns
-3 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.
- 7.16.1.2 The va_copy macro
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdarg.h>
- void va_copy(va_list dest, va_list src);
- Description
-2 The va_copy macro initializes dest as a copy of src, as if the va_start macro had
- been applied to dest followed by the same sequence of uses of the va_arg macro as
- had previously been used to reach the present state of src. Neither the va_copy nor
- va_start macro shall be invoked to reinitialize dest without an intervening
- invocation of the va_end macro for the same dest.
- Returns
-3 The va_copy macro returns no value.
- 7.16.1.3 The va_end macro
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdarg.h>
- void va_end(va_list ap);
- Description
-2 The va_end macro facilitates a normal return from the function whose variable
- argument list was referred to by the expansion of the va_start macro, or the function
- containing the expansion of the va_copy macro, that initialized the va_list ap. The
- va_end macro may modify ap so that it is no longer usable (without being reinitialized
-
-[page 269]
-
- by the va_start or va_copy macro). If there is no corresponding invocation of the
- va_start or va_copy macro, or if the va_end macro is not invoked before the
- return, the behavior is undefined.
- Returns
-3 The va_end macro returns no value.
- 7.16.1.4 The va_start macro
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdarg.h>
- void va_start(va_list ap, parmN);
- Description
-2 The va_start macro shall be invoked before any access to the unnamed arguments.
-3 The va_start macro initializes ap for subsequent use by the va_arg and va_end
- macros. Neither the va_start nor va_copy macro shall be invoked to reinitialize ap
- without an intervening invocation of the va_end macro for the same ap.
-4 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
-5 The va_start macro returns no value.
-6 EXAMPLE 1 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 = 0;
-
-[page 270]
-
- if (n_ptrs > MAXARGS)
- n_ptrs = MAXARGS;
- va_start(ap, n_ptrs);
- while (ptr_no < n_ptrs)
- array[ptr_no++] = va_arg(ap, char *);
- va_end(ap);
- f2(n_ptrs, array);
- }
- Each call to f1 is required to have visible the definition of the function or a declaration such as
- void f1(int, ...);
-
-7 EXAMPLE 2 The function f3 is similar, but saves the status of the variable argument list after the
- indicated number of arguments; after f2 has been called once with the whole list, the trailing part of the list
- is gathered again and passed to function f4.
- #include <stdarg.h>
- #define MAXARGS 31
- void f3(int n_ptrs, int f4_after, ...)
- {
- va_list ap, ap_save;
- char *array[MAXARGS];
- int ptr_no = 0;
- if (n_ptrs > MAXARGS)
- n_ptrs = MAXARGS;
- va_start(ap, f4_after);
- while (ptr_no < n_ptrs) {
- array[ptr_no++] = va_arg(ap, char *);
- if (ptr_no == f4_after)
- va_copy(ap_save, ap);
- }
- va_end(ap);
- f2(n_ptrs, array);
- // Now process the saved copy.
- n_ptrs -= f4_after;
- ptr_no = 0;
- while (ptr_no < n_ptrs)
- array[ptr_no++] = va_arg(ap_save, char *);

- 7.17 Atomics <stdatomic.h>
- 7.17.1 Introduction
-1 The header <stdatomic.h> defines several macros and declares several types and
- functions for performing atomic operations on data shared between threads.
-2 Implementations that define the macro __STDC_NO_THREADS__ need not provide
- this header nor support any of its facilities.
-3 The macros defined are the atomic lock-free macros
- ATOMIC_CHAR_LOCK_FREE
- ATOMIC_CHAR16_T_LOCK_FREE
- ATOMIC_CHAR32_T_LOCK_FREE
- ATOMIC_WCHAR_T_LOCK_FREE
- ATOMIC_SHORT_LOCK_FREE
- ATOMIC_INT_LOCK_FREE
- ATOMIC_LONG_LOCK_FREE
- ATOMIC_LLONG_LOCK_FREE
- ATOMIC_ADDRESS_LOCK_FREE
- which indicate the lock-free property of the corresponding atomic types (both signed and
- unsigned); and
- ATOMIC_FLAG_INIT
- which expands to an initializer for an object of type atomic_flag.
-4 The types include
- memory_order
- which is an enumerated type whose enumerators identify memory ordering constraints;
- atomic_flag
- which is a structure type representing a lock-free, primitive atomic flag;
- atomic_bool
- which is a structure type representing the atomic analog of the type _Bool;
- atomic_address
- which is a structure type representing the atomic analog of a pointer type; and several
- atomic analogs of integer types.
-5 In the following operation definitions:
- -- An A refers to one of the atomic types.
-
-[page 272]
-
- -- A C refers to its corresponding non-atomic type. The atomic_address atomic
- type corresponds to the void * non-atomic type.
- -- An M refers to the type of the other argument for arithmetic operations. For atomic
- integer types, M is C. For atomic address types, M is ptrdiff_t.
- -- The functions not ending in _explicit have the same semantics as the
- corresponding _explicit function with memory_order_seq_cst for the
- memory_order argument.
-6 NOTE Many operations are volatile-qualified. The ''volatile as device register'' semantics have not
- changed in the standard. This qualification means that volatility is preserved when applying these
- operations to volatile objects.
-
- 7.17.2 Initialization
- 7.17.2.1 The ATOMIC_VAR_INIT macro
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdatomic.h>
- #define ATOMIC_VAR_INIT(C value)
- Description
-2 The ATOMIC_VAR_INIT macro expands to a token sequence suitable for initializing an
- atomic object of a type that is initialization-compatible with value. An atomic object
- with automatic storage duration that is not explicitly initialized using
- ATOMIC_VAR_INIT is initially in an indeterminate state; however, the default (zero)
- initialization for objects with static or thread-local storage duration is guaranteed to
- produce a valid state.
-3 Concurrent access to the variable being initialized, even via an atomic operation,
- constitutes a data race.
-4 EXAMPLE
- atomic_int guide = ATOMIC_VAR_INIT(42);
-
- 7.17.2.2 The atomic_init generic function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdatomic.h>
- void atomic_init(volatile A *obj, C value);
- Description
-2 The atomic_init generic function initializes the atomic object pointed to by obj to
- the value value, while also initializing any additional state that the implementation
- might need to carry for the atomic object.
-
-[page 273]
-
-3 Although this function initializes an atomic object, it does not avoid data races;
- concurrent access to the variable being initialized, even via an atomic operation,
- constitutes a data race.
- Returns
-4 The atomic_init generic function returns no value.
-5 EXAMPLE
- atomic_int guide;
- atomic_init(&guide, 42);
-
- 7.17.3 Order and consistency
-1 The enumerated type memory_order specifies the detailed regular (non-atomic)
- memory synchronization operations as defined in 5.1.2.4 and may provide for operation
- ordering. Its enumeration constants are as follows:
- memory_order_relaxed
- memory_order_consume
- memory_order_acquire
- memory_order_release
- memory_order_acq_rel
- memory_order_seq_cst
-2 For memory_order_relaxed, no operation orders memory.
-3 For memory_order_release, memory_order_acq_rel, and
- memory_order_seq_cst, a store operation performs a release operation on the
- affected memory location.
-4 For memory_order_acquire, memory_order_acq_rel, and
- memory_order_seq_cst, a load operation performs an acquire operation on the
- affected memory location.
-5 For memory_order_consume, a load operation performs a consume operation on the
- affected memory location.
-6 For memory_order_seq_cst, there shall be a single total order S on all operations,
- consistent with the ''happens before'' order and modification orders for all affected
- locations, such that each memory_order_seq_cst operation that loads a value
- observes either the last preceding modification according to this order S, or the result of
- an operation that is not memory_order_seq_cst.
-7 NOTE 1 Although it is not explicitly required that S include lock operations, it can always be extended to
- an order that does include lock and unlock operations, since the ordering between those is already included
- in the ''happens before'' ordering.
-
-8 NOTE 2 Atomic operations specifying memory_order_relaxed are relaxed only with respect to
- memory ordering. Implementations must still guarantee that any given atomic access to a particular atomic
-
-[page 274]
-
- object be indivisible with respect to all other atomic accesses to that object.
-
-9 For an atomic operation B that reads the value of an atomic object M, if there is a
- memory_order_seq_cst fence X sequenced before B, then B observes either the
- last memory_order_seq_cst modification of M preceding X in the total order S or
- a later modification of M in its modification order.
-10 For atomic operations A and B on an atomic object M, where A modifies M and B takes
- its value, if there is a memory_order_seq_cst fence X such that A is sequenced
- before X and B follows X in S, then B observes either the effects of A or a later
- modification of M in its modification order.
-11 For atomic operations A and B on an atomic object M, where A modifies M and B takes
- its value, if there are memory_order_seq_cst fences X and Y such that A is
- sequenced before X, Y is sequenced before B, and X precedes Y in S, then B observes
- either the effects of A or a later modification of M in its modification order.
-12 Atomic read-modify-write operations shall always read the last value (in the modification
- order) stored before the write associated with the read-modify-write operation.
-13 An atomic store shall only store a value that has been computed from constants and
- program input values by a finite sequence of program evaluations, such that each
- evaluation observes the values of variables as computed by the last prior assignment in
- the sequence.251) The ordering of evaluations in this sequence shall be such that
- -- If an evaluation B observes a value computed by A in a different thread, then B does
- not happen before A.
- -- If an evaluation A is included in the sequence, then all evaluations that assign to the
- same variable and happen before A are also included.
-14 NOTE 3 The second requirement disallows ''out-of-thin-air'', or ''speculative'' stores of atomics when
- relaxed atomics are used. Since unordered operations are involved, evaluations may appear in this
- sequence out of thread order. For example, with x and y initially zero,
- // Thread 1:
- r1 = atomic_load_explicit(&y, memory_order_relaxed);
- atomic_store_explicit(&x, r1, memory_order_relaxed);
-
- // Thread 2:
- r2 = atomic_load_explicit(&x, memory_order_relaxed);
- atomic_store_explicit(&y, 42, memory_order_relaxed);
- is allowed to produce r1 == 42 && r2 == 42. The sequence of evaluations justifying this consists of:
-
-
-
-
- 251) Among other implications, atomic variables shall not decay.
-
-[page 275]
-
- atomic_store_explicit(&y, 42, memory_order_relaxed);
- r1 = atomic_load_explicit(&y, memory_order_relaxed);
- atomic_store_explicit(&x, r1, memory_order_relaxed);
- r2 = atomic_load_explicit(&x, memory_order_relaxed);
- On the other hand,
- // Thread 1:
- r1 = atomic_load_explicit(&y, memory_order_relaxed);
- atomic_store_explicit(&x, r1, memory_order_relaxed);
-
- // Thread 2:
- r2 = atomic_load_explicit(&x, memory_order_relaxed);
- atomic_store_explicit(&y, r2, memory_order_relaxed);
- is not allowed to produce r1 == 42 && r2 = 42, since there is no sequence of evaluations that results
- in the computation of 42. In the absence of ''relaxed'' operations and read-modify-write operations with
- weaker than memory_order_acq_rel ordering, the second requirement has no impact.
-
- Recommended practice
-15 The requirements do not forbid r1 == 42 && r2 == 42 in the following example,
- with x and y initially zero:
- // Thread 1:
- r1 = atomic_load_explicit(&x, memory_order_relaxed);
- if (r1 == 42)
- atomic_store_explicit(&y, r1, memory_order_relaxed);
-
- // Thread 2:
- r2 = atomic_load_explicit(&y, memory_order_relaxed);
- if (r2 == 42)
- atomic_store_explicit(&x, 42, memory_order_relaxed);
- However, this is not useful behavior, and implementations should not allow it.
-16 Implementations should make atomic stores visible to atomic loads within a reasonable
- amount of time.
- 7.17.3.1 The kill_dependency macro
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdatomic.h>
- type kill_dependency(type y);
- Description
-2 The kill_dependency macro terminates a dependency chain; the argument does not
- carry a dependency to the return value.
-
-[page 276]
-
- Returns
-3 The kill_dependency macro returns the value of y.
- 7.17.4 Fences
-1 This subclause introduces synchronization primitives called fences. Fences can have
- acquire semantics, release semantics, or both. A fence with acquire semantics is called
- an acquire fence; a fence with release semantics is called a release fence.
-2 A release fence A synchronizes with an acquire fence B if there exist atomic operations
- X and Y , both operating on some atomic object M, such that A is sequenced before X, X
- modifies M, Y is sequenced before B, and Y reads the value written by X or a value
- written by any side effect in the hypothetical release sequence X would head if it were a
- release operation.
-3 A release fence A synchronizes with an atomic operation B that performs an acquire
- operation on an atomic object M if there exists an atomic operation X such that A is
- sequenced before X, X modifies M, and B reads the value written by X or a value written
- by any side effect in the hypothetical release sequence X would head if it were a release
- operation.
-4 An atomic operation A that is a release operation on an atomic object M synchronizes
- with an acquire fence B if there exists some atomic operation X on M such that X is
- sequenced before B and reads the value written by A or a value written by any side effect
- in the release sequence headed by A.
- 7.17.4.1 The atomic_thread_fence function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdatomic.h>
- void atomic_thread_fence(memory_order order);
- Description
-2 Depending on the value of order, this operation:
- -- has no effects, if order == memory_order_relaxed;
- -- is an acquire fence, if order == memory_order_acquire or order ==
- memory_order_consume;
- -- is a release fence, if order == memory_order_release;
- -- is both an acquire fence and a release fence, if order ==
- memory_order_acq_rel;
- -- is a sequentially consistent acquire and release fence, if order ==
- memory_order_seq_cst.
-
-[page 277]
-
- Returns
-3 The atomic_thread_fence function returns no value.
- 7.17.4.2 The atomic_signal_fence function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdatomic.h>
- void atomic_signal_fence(memory_order order);
- Description
-2 Equivalent to atomic_thread_fence(order), except that ''synchronizes with''
- relationships are established only between a thread and a signal handler executed in the
- same thread.
-3 NOTE 1 The atomic_signal_fence function can be used to specify the order in which actions
- performed by the thread become visible to the signal handler.
-
-4 NOTE 2 Compiler optimizations and reorderings of loads and stores are inhibited in the same way as with
- atomic_thread_fence, but the hardware fence instructions that atomic_thread_fence would
- have inserted are not emitted.
-
- Returns
-5 The atomic_signal_fence function returns no value.
- 7.17.5 Lock-free property
-1 The atomic lock-free macros indicate the lock-free property of integer and address atomic
- types. A value of 0 indicates that the type is never lock-free; a value of 1 indicates that
- the type is sometimes lock-free; a value of 2 indicates that the type is always lock-free.
-2 NOTE Operations that are lock-free should also be address-free. That is, atomic operations on the same
- memory location via two different addresses will communicate atomically. The implementation should not
- depend on any per-process state. This restriction enables communication via memory mapped into a
- process more than once and memory shared between two processes.
-
- 7.17.5.1 The atomic_is_lock_free generic function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdatomic.h>
- _Bool atomic_is_lock_free(atomic_type const volatile *obj);
- Description
-2 The atomic_is_lock_free generic function indicates whether or not the object
- pointed to by obj is lock-free. atomic_type can be any atomic type.
- Returns
-3 The atomic_is_lock_free generic function returns nonzero (true) if and only if the
- object's operations are lock-free. The result of a lock-free query on one object cannot be
-
-[page 278]
-
- inferred from the result of a lock-free query on another object.
- 7.17.6 Atomic integer and address types
-1 For each line in the following table, the atomic type name is declared as the
- corresponding direct type.
-
-[page 279]
-
- Atomic type name Direct type

- atomic_intmax_t _Atomic intmax_t
- atomic_uintmax_t _Atomic uintmax_t
-2 The semantics of the operations on these types are defined in 7.17.7.
-3 The atomic_bool type provides an atomic boolean.
-
-[page 280]
-
-4 The atomic_address type provides atomic void * operations. The unit of
- addition/subtraction shall be one byte.
-5 NOTE The representation of atomic integer and address types need not have the same size as their
- corresponding regular types. They should have the same size whenever possible, as it eases effort required
- to port existing code.
-
- 7.17.7 Operations on atomic types
-1 There are only a few kinds of operations on atomic types, though there are many
- instances of those kinds. This subclause specifies each general kind.
- 7.17.7.1 The atomic_store generic functions
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdatomic.h>
- void atomic_store(volatile A *object, C desired);
- void atomic_store_explicit(volatile A *object,
- C desired, memory_order order);
- Description
-2 The order argument shall not be memory_order_acquire,
- memory_order_consume, nor memory_order_acq_rel. Atomically replace the
- value pointed to by object with the value of desired. Memory is affected according
- to the value of order.
- Returns
-3 The atomic_store generic functions return no value.
- 7.17.7.2 The atomic_load generic functions
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdatomic.h>
- C atomic_load(volatile A *object);
- C atomic_load_explicit(volatile A *object,
- memory_order order);
- Description
-2 The order argument shall not be memory_order_release nor
- memory_order_acq_rel. Memory is affected according to the value of order.
- Returns
- Atomically returns the value pointed to by object.
-
-[page 281]
-
- 7.17.7.3 The atomic_exchange generic functions
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdatomic.h>
- C atomic_exchange(volatile A *object, C desired);
- C atomic_exchange_explicit(volatile A *object,
- C desired, memory_order order);
- Description
-2 Atomically replace the value pointed to by object with desired. Memory is affected
- according to the value of order. These operations are read-modify-write operations
- (5.1.2.4).
- Returns
-3 Atomically returns the value pointed to by object immediately before the effects.
- 7.17.7.4 The atomic_compare_exchange generic functions
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdatomic.h>
- _Bool atomic_compare_exchange_strong(volatile A *object,
- C *expected, C desired);
- _Bool atomic_compare_exchange_strong_explicit(
- volatile A *object, C *expected, C desired,
- memory_order success, memory_order failure);
- _Bool atomic_compare_exchange_weak(volatile A *object,
- C *expected, C desired);
- _Bool atomic_compare_exchange_weak_explicit(
- volatile A *object, C *expected, C desired,
- memory_order success, memory_order failure);
- Description
-2 The failure argument shall not be memory_order_release nor
- memory_order_acq_rel. The failure argument shall be no stronger than the
- success argument. Atomically, compares the value pointed to by object for equality
- with that in expected, and if true, replaces the value pointed to by object with
- desired, and if false, updates the value in expected with the value pointed to by
- object. Further, if the comparison is true, memory is affected according to the value of
- success, and if the comparison is false, memory is affected according to the value of
- failure. These operations are atomic read-modify-write operations (5.1.2.4).
-3 NOTE 1 The effect of the compare-and-exchange operations is
-
-[page 282]
-
- if (*object == *expected)
- *object = desired;
- else
- *expected = *object;
-
-4 The weak compare-and-exchange operations may fail spuriously, that is, return zero
- while leaving the value pointed to by expected unchanged.
-5 NOTE 2 This spurious failure enables implementation of compare-and-exchange on a broader class of
- machines, e.g. load-locked store-conditional machines.
-
-6 EXAMPLE A consequence of spurious failure is that nearly all uses of weak compare-and-exchange will
- be in a loop.
- exp = atomic_load(&cur);
- do {
- des = function(exp);
- } while (!atomic_compare_exchange_weak(&cur, &exp, des));
- When a compare-and-exchange is in a loop, the weak version will yield better performance on some
- platforms. When a weak compare-and-exchange would require a loop and a strong one would not, the
- strong one is preferable.
-
- Returns
-7 The result of the comparison.
- 7.17.7.5 The atomic_fetch and modify generic functions
-1 The following operations perform arithmetic and bitwise computations. All of these
- operations are applicable to an object of any atomic integer type. Only addition and
- subtraction are applicable to atomic_address. None of these operations is applicable
- to atomic_bool. The key, operator, and computation correspondence is:
- key op computation
- add + addition
- sub - subtraction
- or | bitwise inclusive or
- xor ^ bitwise exclusive or
- and & bitwise and
- Synopsis
-2 #include <stdatomic.h>
- C atomic_fetch_key(volatile A *object, M operand);
- C atomic_fetch_key_explicit(volatile A *object,
- M operand, memory_order order);
- Description
-3 Atomically replaces the value pointed to by object with the result of the computation
- applied to the value pointed to by object and the given operand. Memory is affected
- according to the value of order. These operations are atomic read-modify-write
-
-[page 283]
-
- operations (5.1.2.4). For signed integer types, arithmetic is defined to use two's
- complement representation with silent wrap-around on overflow; there are no undefined
- results. For address types, the result may be an undefined address, but the operations
- otherwise have no undefined behavior.
- Returns
-4 Atomically, the value pointed to by object immediately before the effects.
-5 NOTE The operation of the atomic_fetch and modify generic functions are nearly equivalent to the
- operation of the corresponding op= compound assignment operators. The only differences are that the
- compound assignment operators are not guaranteed to operate atomically, and the value yielded by a
- compound assignment operator is the updated value of the object, whereas the value returned by the
- atomic_fetch and modify generic functions is the previous value of the atomic object.
-
- 7.17.8 Atomic flag type and operations
-1 The atomic_flag type provides the classic test-and-set functionality. It has two
- states, set and clear.
-2 Operations on an object of type atomic_flag shall be lock free.
-3 NOTE Hence the operations should also be address-free. No other type requires lock-free operations, so
- the atomic_flag type is the minimum hardware-implemented type needed to conform to this
- International standard. The remaining types can be emulated with atomic_flag, though with less than
- ideal properties.
-
-4 The macro ATOMIC_FLAG_INIT may be used to initialize an atomic_flag to the
- clear state. An atomic_flag that is not explicitly initialized with
- ATOMIC_FLAG_INIT is initially in an indeterminate state.
-5 EXAMPLE
- atomic_flag guard = ATOMIC_FLAG_INIT;
-
- 7.17.8.1 The atomic_flag_test_and_set functions

- bool atomic_flag_test_and_set(
- volatile atomic_flag *object);
- bool atomic_flag_test_and_set_explicit(
- volatile atomic_flag *object, memory_order order);
- Description
-2 Atomically sets the value pointed to by object to true. Memory is affected according
- to the value of order. These operations are atomic read-modify-write operations
- (5.1.2.4).
-
-[page 284]
-
- Returns
-3 Atomically, the value of the object immediately before the effects.
- 7.17.8.2 The atomic_flag_clear functions
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdatomic.h>
- void atomic_flag_clear(volatile atomic_flag *object);
- void atomic_flag_clear_explicit(
- volatile atomic_flag *object, memory_order order);
- Description
-2 The order argument shall not be memory_order_acquire nor
- memory_order_acq_rel. Atomically sets the value pointed to by object to false.
- Memory is affected according to the value of order.
- Returns
-3 The atomic_flag_clear functions return no value.
-
-[page 285]
-
- 7.18 Boolean type and values <stdbool.h>
-1 The header <stdbool.h> defines four macros.
-2 The macro
- bool
- expands to _Bool.
-3 The remaining three macros are suitable for use in #if preprocessing directives. They
- are
- true
- which expands to the integer constant 1,
- false
- which expands to the integer constant 0, and
- __bool_true_false_are_defined
- which expands to the integer constant 1.
-4 Notwithstanding the provisions of 7.1.3, a program may undefine and perhaps then
- redefine the macros bool, true, and false.252)

- 7.19 Common definitions <stddef.h>
-1 The header <stddef.h> defines the following macros and declares the following types.
- Some are also defined in other headers, as noted in their respective subclauses.
-2 The types are
- ptrdiff_t
- which is the signed integer type of the result of subtracting two pointers;
- size_t
- which is the unsigned integer type of the result of the sizeof operator;
- max_align_t
- which is an object type whose alignment is as great as is supported by the implementation
- in all contexts; and
- wchar_t
- which is an integer 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. Each member of the basic character set
- shall have a code value equal to its value when used as the lone character in an integer
- character constant if an implementation does not define
- __STDC_MB_MIGHT_NEQ_WC__.
-3 The macros are
- NULL
- which expands to an implementation-defined null pointer constant; and
- offsetof(type, member-designator)
- which expands to an integer constant expression that has type size_t, 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 type and 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.)
- Recommended practice
-4 The types used for size_t and ptrdiff_t should not have an integer conversion rank
- greater than that of signed long int unless the implementation supports objects
- large enough to make this necessary.

- 7.20 Integer types <stdint.h>
-1 The header <stdint.h> declares sets of integer types having specified widths, and
- defines corresponding sets of macros.253) It also defines macros that specify limits of
- integer types corresponding to types defined in other standard headers.
-2 Types are defined in the following categories:
- -- integer types having certain exact widths;
- -- integer types having at least certain specified widths;
- -- fastest integer types having at least certain specified widths;
- -- integer types wide enough to hold pointers to objects;
- -- integer types having greatest width.
- (Some of these types may denote the same type.)
-3 Corresponding macros specify limits of the declared types and construct suitable
- constants.
-4 For each type described herein that the implementation provides,254) <stdint.h> shall
- declare that typedef name and define the associated macros. Conversely, for each type
- described herein that the implementation does not provide, <stdint.h> shall not
- declare that typedef name nor shall it define the associated macros. An implementation
- shall provide those types described as ''required'', but need not provide any of the others
- (described as ''optional'').
- 7.20.1 Integer types
-1 When typedef names differing only in the absence or presence of the initial u are defined,
- they shall denote corresponding signed and unsigned types as described in 6.2.5; an
- implementation providing one of these corresponding types shall also provide the other.
-2 In the following descriptions, the symbol N represents an unsigned decimal integer with
- no leading zeros (e.g., 8 or 24, but not 04 or 048).
-
-
-
-
- 253) See ''future library directions'' (7.30.8).
- 254) Some of these types may denote implementation-defined extended integer types.
-
-[page 289]
-
- 7.20.1.1 Exact-width integer types
-1 The typedef name intN_t designates a signed integer type with width N , no padding
- bits, and a two's complement representation. Thus, int8_t denotes such a signed
- integer type with a width of exactly 8 bits.
-2 The typedef name uintN_t designates an unsigned integer type with width N and no
- padding bits. Thus, uint24_t denotes such an unsigned integer type with a width of
- exactly 24 bits.
-3 These types are optional. However, if an implementation provides integer types with
- widths of 8, 16, 32, or 64 bits, no padding bits, and (for the signed types) that have a
- two's complement representation, it shall define the corresponding typedef names.
- 7.20.1.2 Minimum-width integer types
-1 The typedef name int_leastN_t designates a signed integer type with a width of at
- least N , such that no signed integer type with lesser size has at least the specified width.
- Thus, int_least32_t denotes a signed integer type with a width of at least 32 bits.
-2 The typedef name uint_leastN_t designates an unsigned integer type with a width
- of at least N , such that no unsigned integer type with lesser size has at least the specified
- width. Thus, uint_least16_t denotes an unsigned integer type with a width of at
- least 16 bits.
-3 The following types are required:
- int_least8_t uint_least8_t
- int_least16_t uint_least16_t
- int_least32_t uint_least32_t
- int_least64_t uint_least64_t
- All other types of this form are optional.
- 7.20.1.3 Fastest minimum-width integer types
-1 Each of the following types designates an integer type that is usually fastest255) to operate
- with among all integer types that have at least the specified width.
-2 The typedef name int_fastN_t designates the fastest signed integer type with a width
- of at least N . The typedef name uint_fastN_t designates the fastest unsigned integer
- type with a width of at least N .
-
-
-
-
- 255) The designated type is not guaranteed to be fastest for all purposes; if the implementation has no clear
- grounds for choosing one type over another, it will simply pick some integer type satisfying the
- signedness and width requirements.
-
-[page 290]
-
-3 The following types are required:
- int_fast8_t uint_fast8_t
- int_fast16_t uint_fast16_t
- int_fast32_t uint_fast32_t
- int_fast64_t uint_fast64_t
- All other types of this form are optional.
- 7.20.1.4 Integer types capable of holding object pointers
-1 The following type designates a signed integer type with the property that any valid
- pointer to void can be converted to this type, then converted back to pointer to void,
- and the result will compare equal to the original pointer:
- intptr_t
- The following type designates an unsigned integer type with the property that any valid
- pointer to void can be converted to this type, then converted back to pointer to void,
- and the result will compare equal to the original pointer:
- uintptr_t
- These types are optional.
- 7.20.1.5 Greatest-width integer types
-1 The following type designates a signed integer type capable of representing any value of
- any signed integer type:
- intmax_t
- The following type designates an unsigned integer type capable of representing any value
- of any unsigned integer type:
- uintmax_t
- These types are required.
- 7.20.2 Limits of specified-width integer types
-1 The following object-like macros specify the minimum and maximum limits of the types *
- declared in <stdint.h>. Each macro name corresponds to a similar type name in
- 7.20.1.
-2 Each instance of any defined macro shall be replaced by a constant expression suitable
- for use in #if preprocessing directives, and this expression shall have the same type as
- would an expression that is an object of the corresponding type converted according to
- the integer promotions. Its implementation-defined value shall be equal to or greater in
- magnitude (absolute value) than the corresponding value given below, with the same sign,
- except where stated to be exactly the given value.

- 7.20.3 Limits of other integer types
-1 The following object-like macros specify the minimum and maximum limits of integer *
- types corresponding to types defined in other standard headers.
-2 Each instance of these macros shall be replaced by a constant expression suitable for use
- in #if preprocessing directives, and this expression shall have the same type as would an
- expression that is an object of the corresponding type converted according to the integer
- promotions. Its implementation-defined value shall be equal to or greater in magnitude
- (absolute value) than the corresponding value given below, with the same sign. An
- implementation shall define only the macros corresponding to those typedef names it
- actually provides.256)

-
- WINT_MIN see below
- WINT_MAX see below
-3 If sig_atomic_t (see 7.14) is defined as a signed integer type, the value of
- SIG_ATOMIC_MIN shall be no greater than -127 and the value of SIG_ATOMIC_MAX
- shall be no less than 127; otherwise, sig_atomic_t is defined as an unsigned integer
- type, and the value of SIG_ATOMIC_MIN shall be 0 and the value of
- SIG_ATOMIC_MAX shall be no less than 255.
-4 If wchar_t (see 7.19) is defined as a signed integer type, the value of WCHAR_MIN
- shall be no greater than -127 and the value of WCHAR_MAX shall be no less than 127;
- otherwise, wchar_t is defined as an unsigned integer type, and the value of
- WCHAR_MIN shall be 0 and the value of WCHAR_MAX shall be no less than 255.257)
-5 If wint_t (see 7.28) is defined as a signed integer type, the value of WINT_MIN shall
- be no greater than -32767 and the value of WINT_MAX shall be no less than 32767;
- otherwise, wint_t is defined as an unsigned integer type, and the value of WINT_MIN

- 7.20.4 Macros for integer constants
-1 The following function-like macros expand to integer constants suitable for initializing *
- objects that have integer types corresponding to types defined in <stdint.h>. Each
- macro name corresponds to a similar type name in 7.20.1.2 or 7.20.1.5.
-2 The argument in any instance of these macros shall be an unsuffixed integer constant (as
- defined in 6.4.4.1) with a value that does not exceed the limits for the corresponding type.
-3 Each invocation of one of these macros shall expand to an integer constant expression
- suitable for use in #if preprocessing directives. The type of the expression shall have
- the same type as would an expression of the corresponding type converted according to
- the integer promotions. The value of the expression shall be that of the argument.
- 7.20.4.1 Macros for minimum-width integer constants
-1 The macro INTN_C(value) shall expand to an integer constant expression
- corresponding to the type int_leastN_t. The macro UINTN_C(value) shall expand
- to an integer constant expression corresponding to the type uint_leastN_t. For
- example, if uint_least64_t is a name for the type unsigned long long int,
- then UINT64_C(0x123) might expand to the integer constant 0x123ULL.
-
-
-
-
- 257) The values WCHAR_MIN and WCHAR_MAX do not necessarily correspond to members of the extended
- character set.

- 7.21 Input/output <stdio.h>
- 7.21.1 Introduction
-1 The header <stdio.h> defines several macros, and declares three types and many
- functions for performing input and output.
-2 The types declared are size_t (described in 7.19);
- 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 (if any), 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 a complete object type other than an array type capable of recording all the
- information needed to specify uniquely every position within a file.
-3 The macros are NULL (described in 7.19);
- _IOFBF
- _IOLBF
- _IONBF
- which expand to integer constant expressions with distinct values, suitable for use as the
- third argument to the setvbuf function;
- BUFSIZ
- which expands to an integer constant expression that is the size of the buffer used by the
- setbuf function;
- EOF
- which expands to an integer constant expression, with type int and a negative value, 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 integer constant expression that is the minimum number of files that
- the implementation guarantees can be open simultaneously;
- FILENAME_MAX
- which expands to an integer constant expression that is the size needed for an array of
- char large enough to hold the longest file name string that the implementation
-
-[page 296]
-
- guarantees can be opened;258)
- L_tmpnam
- which expands to an integer constant expression that is the size needed for 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 integer constant expressions with distinct values, suitable for use as the
- third argument to the fseek function;
- TMP_MAX
- which expands to an integer constant expression that is the minimum number of unique
- file names that can be generated by the tmpnam function;
- stderr
- stdin
- 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.
-4 The header <wchar.h> declares a number of functions useful for wide character input
- and output. The wide character input/output functions described in that subclause
- provide operations analogous to most of those described here, except that the
- fundamental units internal to the program are wide characters. The external
- representation (in the file) is a sequence of ''generalized'' multibyte characters, as
- described further in 7.21.3.
-5 The input/output functions are given the following collective terms:
- -- The wide character input functions -- those functions described in 7.28 that perform
- input into wide characters and wide strings: fgetwc, fgetws, getwc, getwchar,
- fwscanf, wscanf, vfwscanf, and vwscanf.
- -- The wide character output functions -- those functions described in 7.28 that perform
- output from wide characters and wide strings: fputwc, fputws, putwc,
- putwchar, fwprintf, wprintf, vfwprintf, and vwprintf.
-
-
- 258) If the implementation imposes no practical limit on the length of file name strings, the value of
- FILENAME_MAX should instead be the recommended size of an array intended to hold a file name
- string. Of course, file name string contents are subject to other system-specific constraints; therefore
- all possible strings of length FILENAME_MAX cannot be expected to be opened successfully.
-
-[page 297]
-
- -- The wide character input/output functions -- the union of the ungetwc function, the
- wide character input functions, and the wide character output functions.
- -- The byte input/output functions -- those functions described in this subclause that
- perform input/output: fgetc, fgets, fprintf, fputc, fputs, fread,
- fscanf, fwrite, getc, getchar, printf, putc, putchar, puts, scanf, *
- ungetc, vfprintf, vfscanf, vprintf, and vscanf.
- Forward references: files (7.21.3), the fseek function (7.21.9.2), streams (7.21.2), the
- tmpnam function (7.21.4.4), <wchar.h> (7.28).
- 7.21.2 Streams
-1 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.259)
-2 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 printing
- 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.
-3 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 to the end
- of the stream.
-4 Each stream has an orientation. After a stream is associated with an external file, but
- before any operations are performed on it, the stream is without orientation. Once a wide
- character input/output function has been applied to a stream without orientation, the
-
-
- 259) 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.
-
-[page 298]
-
- stream becomes a wide-oriented stream. Similarly, once a byte input/output function has
- been applied to a stream without orientation, the stream becomes a byte-oriented stream.
- Only a call to the freopen function or the fwide function can otherwise alter the
- orientation of a stream. (A successful call to freopen removes any orientation.)260)
-5 Byte input/output functions shall not be applied to a wide-oriented stream and wide
- character input/output functions shall not be applied to a byte-oriented stream. The
- remaining stream operations do not affect, and are not affected by, a stream's orientation,
- except for the following additional restrictions:
- -- Binary wide-oriented streams have the file-positioning restrictions ascribed to both
- text and binary streams.
- -- For wide-oriented streams, after a successful call to a file-positioning function that
- leaves the file position indicator prior to the end-of-file, a wide character output
- function can overwrite a partial multibyte character; any file contents beyond the
- byte(s) written are henceforth indeterminate.
-6 Each wide-oriented stream has an associated mbstate_t object that stores the current
- parse state of the stream. A successful call to fgetpos stores a representation of the
- value of this mbstate_t object as part of the value of the fpos_t object. A later
- successful call to fsetpos using the same stored fpos_t value restores the value of
- the associated mbstate_t object as well as the position within the controlled stream.
- Environmental limits
-7 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.
- Forward references: the freopen function (7.21.5.4), the fwide function (7.28.3.5),
- mbstate_t (7.29.1), the fgetpos function (7.21.9.1), the fsetpos function
- (7.21.9.3).
-
-
-
-
- 260) The three predefined streams stdin, stdout, and stderr are unoriented at program startup.
-
-[page 299]
-
- 7.21.3 Files
-1 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. If a file can support positioning requests (such as a
- disk file, as opposed to a terminal), then a file position indicator 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 initially 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.
-2 Binary files are not truncated, except as defined in 7.21.5.3. Whether a write on a text
- stream causes the associated file to be truncated beyond that point is implementation-
- defined.
-3 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.
-4 A file may be disassociated from a 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.
-5 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.
-6 The address of the FILE object used to control a stream may be significant; a copy of a
- FILE object need not serve in place of the original.
-
-[page 300]
-
-7 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). As initially
- 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.
-8 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.
-9 Although both text and binary wide-oriented streams are conceptually sequences of wide
- characters, the external file associated with a wide-oriented stream is a sequence of
- multibyte characters, generalized as follows:
- -- Multibyte encodings within files may contain embedded null bytes (unlike multibyte
- encodings valid for use internal to the program).
- -- A file need not begin nor end in the initial shift state.261)
-10 Moreover, the encodings used for multibyte characters may differ among files. Both the
- nature and choice of such encodings are implementation-defined.
-11 The wide character input functions read multibyte characters from the stream and convert
- them to wide characters as if they were read by successive calls to the fgetwc function.
- Each conversion occurs as if by a call to the mbrtowc function, with the conversion state
- described by the stream's own mbstate_t object. The byte input functions read
- characters from the stream as if by successive calls to the fgetc function.
-12 The wide character output functions convert wide characters to multibyte characters and
- write them to the stream as if they were written by successive calls to the fputwc
- function. Each conversion occurs as if by a call to the wcrtomb function, with the
- conversion state described by the stream's own mbstate_t object. The byte output
- functions write characters to the stream as if by successive calls to the fputc function.
-13 In some cases, some of the byte input/output functions also perform conversions between
- multibyte characters and wide characters. These conversions also occur as if by calls to
- the mbrtowc and wcrtomb functions.
-14 An encoding error occurs if the character sequence presented to the underlying
- mbrtowc function does not form a valid (generalized) multibyte character, or if the code
- value passed to the underlying wcrtomb does not correspond to a valid (generalized)
-
-
- 261) Setting the file position indicator to end-of-file, as with fseek(file, 0, SEEK_END), has
- undefined behavior for a binary stream (because of possible trailing null characters) or for any stream
- with state-dependent encoding that does not assuredly end in the initial shift state.
-
-[page 301]
-
- multibyte character. The wide character input/output functions and the byte input/output
- functions store the value of the macro EILSEQ in errno if and only if an encoding error
- occurs.
- Environmental limits
-15 The value of FOPEN_MAX shall be at least eight, including the three standard text
- streams.
- Forward references: the exit function (7.22.4.4), the fgetc function (7.21.7.1), the
- fopen function (7.21.5.3), the fputc function (7.21.7.3), the setbuf function
- (7.21.5.5), the setvbuf function (7.21.5.6), the fgetwc function (7.28.3.1), the
- fputwc function (7.28.3.3), conversion state (7.28.6), the mbrtowc function
- (7.28.6.3.2), the wcrtomb function (7.28.6.3.3).
- 7.21.4 Operations on files
- 7.21.4.1 The remove function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdio.h>
- int remove(const char *filename);
- Description
-2 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
-3 The remove function returns zero if the operation succeeds, nonzero if it fails.
- 7.21.4.2 The rename function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdio.h>
- int rename(const char *old, const char *new);
- Description
-2 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 no longer accessible by that name. 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.
-
-[page 302]
-
- Returns
-3 The rename function returns zero if the operation succeeds, nonzero if it fails,262) in
- which case if the file existed previously it is still known by its original name.
- 7.21.4.3 The tmpfile function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdio.h>
- FILE *tmpfile(void);
- Description
-2 The tmpfile function creates a temporary binary file that is different from any other
- existing file and 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.
- Recommended practice
-3 It should be possible to open at least TMP_MAX temporary files during the lifetime of the
- program (this limit may be shared with tmpnam) and there should be no limit on the
- number simultaneously open other than this limit and any limit on the number of open
- files (FOPEN_MAX).
- Returns
-4 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 (7.21.5.3).
- 7.21.4.4 The tmpnam function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdio.h>
- char *tmpnam(char *s);
- Description
-2 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.263) The function is potentially capable of generating at
-
-
- 262) 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.
- 263) 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.
-
-[page 303]
-
- least TMP_MAX different strings, but any or all of them may already be in use by existing
- files and thus not be suitable return values.
-3 The tmpnam function generates a different string each time it is called.
-4 Calls to the tmpnam function with a null pointer argument may introduce data races with
- each other. The implementation shall behave as if no library function calls the tmpnam
- function.
- Returns
-5 If no suitable string can be generated, the tmpnam function returns a null pointer.
- Otherwise, 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 chars; the tmpnam function writes its result
- in that array and returns the argument as its value.
- Environmental limits
-6 The value of the macro TMP_MAX shall be at least 25.
- 7.21.5 File access functions
- 7.21.5.1 The fclose function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdio.h>
- int fclose(FILE *stream);
- Description
-2 A successful call to 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. Whether or not the call succeeds, the stream is disassociated from the file
- and any buffer set by the setbuf or setvbuf function is disassociated from the stream
- (and deallocated if it was automatically allocated).
- Returns
-3 The fclose function returns zero if the stream was successfully closed, or EOF if any
- errors were detected.
-
-[page 304]
-
- 7.21.5.2 The fflush function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdio.h>
- int fflush(FILE *stream);
- Description
-2 If stream points to an output stream or an update stream in which the most recent
- operation was not input, 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.
-3 If stream is a null pointer, the fflush function performs this flushing action on all
- streams for which the behavior is defined above.
- Returns
-4 The fflush function sets the error indicator for the stream and returns EOF if a write
- error occurs, otherwise it returns zero.
- Forward references: the fopen function (7.21.5.3).
- 7.21.5.3 The fopen function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdio.h>
- FILE *fopen(const char * restrict filename,
- const char * restrict mode);
- Description
-2 The fopen function opens the file whose name is the string pointed to by filename,
- and associates a stream with it.
-3 The argument mode points to a string. If the string is one of the following, the file is
- open in the indicated mode. Otherwise, the behavior is undefined.264)
- r open text file for reading
- w truncate to zero length or create text file for writing
- wx create text file for writing
- a append; open or create text file for writing at end-of-file
- rb open binary file for reading
- wb truncate to zero length or create binary file for writing
-
-
- 264) If the string begins with one of the above sequences, the implementation might choose to ignore the
- remaining characters, or it might use them to select different kinds of a file (some of which might not
- conform to the properties in 7.21.2).
-
-[page 305]
-
- wbx 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
- w+x 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
- w+bx or wb+x create binary file for update
- a+b or ab+ append; open or create binary file for update, writing at end-of-file
-4 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.
-5 Opening a file with exclusive mode ('x' as the last character in the mode argument)
- fails if the file already exists or cannot be created. Otherwise, the file is created with
- exclusive (also known as non-shared) access to the extent that the underlying system
- supports exclusive access.
-6 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 above list of
- mode argument values) may initially position the file position indicator for the stream
- beyond the last data written, because of null character padding.
-7 When a file is opened with update mode ('+' as the second or third character in the
- above list of mode argument values), both input and output may be performed on the
- associated stream. However, output shall 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 shall not be directly followed by output without an
- intervening call to a file positioning function, unless the input operation encounters end-
- of-file. Opening (or creating) a text file with update mode may instead open (or create) a
- binary stream in some implementations.
-8 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
-9 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 (7.21.9).

-
- 7.21.5.4 The freopen function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdio.h>
- FILE *freopen(const char * restrict filename,
- const char * restrict mode,
- FILE * restrict stream);
- Description
-2 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.265)
-3 If filename is a null pointer, the freopen function attempts to change the mode of
- the stream to that specified by mode, as if the name of the file currently associated with
- the stream had been used. It is implementation-defined which changes of mode are
- permitted (if any), and under what circumstances.
-4 The freopen function first attempts to close any file that is associated with the specified
- stream. Failure to close the file is ignored. The error and end-of-file indicators for the
- stream are cleared.
- Returns
-5 The freopen function returns a null pointer if the open operation fails. Otherwise,
- freopen returns the value of stream.
- 7.21.5.5 The setbuf function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdio.h>
- void setbuf(FILE * restrict stream,
- char * restrict buf);
- Description
-2 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.
-
-
-
-
- 265) 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.
-
-[page 307]
-
- Returns
-3 The setbuf function returns no value.
- Forward references: the setvbuf function (7.21.5.6).
- 7.21.5.6 The setvbuf function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdio.h>
- int setvbuf(FILE * restrict stream,
- char * restrict buf,
- int mode, size_t size);
- Description
-2 The setvbuf function may be used only after the stream pointed to by stream has
- been associated with an open file and before any other operation (other than an
- unsuccessful call to setvbuf) 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 input/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 function266) and the argument size
- specifies the size of the array; otherwise, size may determine the size of a buffer
- allocated by the setvbuf function. The contents of the array at any time are
- indeterminate.
- Returns
-3 The setvbuf function returns zero on success, or nonzero if an invalid value is given
- for mode or if the request cannot be honored.
-
-
-
-
- 266) The buffer has to 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.
-
-[page 308]
-
- 7.21.6 Formatted input/output functions
-1 The formatted input/output functions shall behave as if there is a sequence point after the
- actions associated with each specifier.267)
- 7.21.6.1 The fprintf function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdio.h>
- int fprintf(FILE * restrict stream,
- const char * restrict format, ...);
- Description
-2 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.
-3 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,
- converting them, if applicable, according to the corresponding conversion specifier, and
- then writing the result to the output stream.
-4 Each conversion specification is introduced by the character %. After the %, the following
- appear in sequence:
- -- Zero or more flags (in any order) that modify the meaning of the conversion
- specification.
- -- An optional minimum field width. If the converted value has fewer characters than the
- field width, it is padded with spaces (by default) on the left (or right, if the left
- adjustment flag, described later, has been given) to the field width. The field width
- takes the form of an asterisk * (described later) or a nonnegative decimal integer.268)
- -- 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 a, A, e, E, f, and F conversions, the maximum number of significant
- digits for the g and G conversions, or the maximum number of bytes to be written for
-
-
- 267) The fprintf functions perform writes to memory for the %n specifier.
- 268) Note that 0 is taken as a flag, not as the beginning of a field width.
-
-[page 309]
-
- s conversions. The precision takes the form of a period (.) followed either by an
- asterisk * (described later) or by an optional decimal integer; if only the period is
- specified, the precision is taken as zero. If a precision appears with any other
- conversion specifier, the behavior is undefined.
- -- An optional length modifier that specifies the size of the argument.
- -- A conversion specifier character that specifies the type of conversion to be applied.
-5 As noted above, a field width, or precision, or both, may be indicated by an asterisk. 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 the
- precision were omitted.
-6 The flag characters and their meanings are:
- - The result of the conversion is left-justified within the field. (It is right-justified if
- this flag is not specified.)
- + The result of a signed conversion always begins with a plus or minus sign. (It
- begins with a sign only when a negative value is converted if this flag is not
- specified.)269)
- space If the first character of a signed conversion is not a sign, or if a signed conversion
- results in no characters, a space is prefixed to the result. If the space and + flags
- both appear, the space flag is ignored.
- # The result is converted to an ''alternative form''. For o conversion, it increases
- the precision, if and only if necessary, to force the first digit of the result to be a
- zero (if the value and precision are both 0, a single 0 is printed). For x (or X)
- conversion, a nonzero result has 0x (or 0X) prefixed to it. For a, A, e, E, f, F, g,
- and G conversions, the result of converting a floating-point number always
- contains 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 are not removed from the
- result. For other conversions, the behavior is undefined.
- 0 For d, i, o, u, x, X, a, A, e, E, f, F, g, and G conversions, leading zeros
- (following any indication of sign or base) are used to pad to the field width rather
- than performing space padding, except when converting an infinity or NaN. If the
- 0 and - flags both appear, the 0 flag is ignored. For d, i, o, u, x, and X
-
-
- 269) The results of all floating conversions of a negative zero, and of negative values that round to zero,
- include a minus sign.
-
-[page 310]
-
- conversions, if a precision is specified, the 0 flag is ignored. For other
- conversions, the behavior is undefined.
-7 The length modifiers and their meanings are:
- hh Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, or X conversion specifier applies to a
- signed char or unsigned char argument (the argument will have
- been promoted according to the integer promotions, but its value shall be
- converted to signed char or unsigned char before printing); or that
- a following n conversion specifier applies to a pointer to a signed char
- argument.
- h Specifies 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 integer promotions, but its value shall
- be converted to short int or unsigned short int before printing);
- or that a following n conversion specifier applies to a pointer to a short
- int argument.
- l (ell) Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, or X conversion specifier applies to a
- long int or unsigned long int argument; that a following n
- conversion specifier applies to a pointer to a long int argument; that a
- following c conversion specifier applies to a wint_t argument; that a
- following s conversion specifier applies to a pointer to a wchar_t
- argument; or has no effect on a following a, A, e, E, f, F, g, or G conversion
- specifier.
- ll (ell-ell) Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, or X conversion specifier applies to a
- long long int or unsigned long long int argument; or that a
- following n conversion specifier applies to a pointer to a long long int
- argument.
- j Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, or X conversion specifier applies to
- an intmax_t or uintmax_t argument; or that a following n conversion
- specifier applies to a pointer to an intmax_t argument.
- z Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, or X conversion specifier applies to a
- size_t or the corresponding signed integer type argument; or that a
- following n conversion specifier applies to a pointer to a signed integer type
- corresponding to size_t argument.
- t Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, or X conversion specifier applies to a
- ptrdiff_t or the corresponding unsigned integer type argument; or that a
- following n conversion specifier applies to a pointer to a ptrdiff_t
- argument.
-
-[page 311]
-
- L Specifies that a following a, A, e, E, f, F, g, or G conversion specifier
- applies to a long double argument.
- If a length modifier appears with any conversion specifier other than as specified above,
- the behavior is undefined.
-8 The conversion specifiers and their meanings are:
- d,i The int argument is converted to signed decimal in the style [-]dddd. The
- precision specifies the minimum number of digits to appear; if the value
- being converted can be represented in fewer digits, it is expanded with
- leading zeros. The default precision is 1. The result of converting a zero
- value with a precision of zero is no characters.
- o,u,x,X The unsigned int argument is converted to unsigned octal (o), unsigned
- decimal (u), or unsigned hexadecimal notation (x or X) in the style dddd; 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 is expanded
- with leading zeros. The default precision is 1. The result of converting a
- zero value with a precision of zero is no characters.
- f,F A double argument representing a floating-point number 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 zero and the # flag is
- not specified, 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.
- A double argument representing an infinity is converted in one of the styles
- [-]inf or [-]infinity -- which style is implementation-defined. A
- double argument representing a NaN is converted in one of the styles
- [-]nan or [-]nan(n-char-sequence) -- which style, and the meaning of
- any n-char-sequence, is implementation-defined. The F conversion specifier
- produces INF, INFINITY, or NAN instead of inf, infinity, or nan,
- respectively.270)
- e,E A double argument representing a floating-point number is converted in the
- style [-]d.ddd e(+-)dd, where there is one digit (which is nonzero if the
- argument is nonzero) before the decimal-point character and the number of
- digits after it is equal to the precision; if the precision is missing, it is taken as
-
-
- 270) When applied to infinite and NaN values, the -, +, and space flag characters have their usual meaning;
- the # and 0 flag characters have no effect.
-
-[page 312]
-
- 6; if the precision is zero and the # flag is not specified, no decimal-point
- character appears. The value is rounded to the appropriate number of digits.
- The E conversion specifier produces a number with E instead of e
- introducing the exponent. The exponent always contains at least two digits,
- and only as many more digits as necessary to represent the exponent. If the
- value is zero, the exponent is zero.
- A double argument representing an infinity or NaN is converted in the style
- of an f or F conversion specifier.
-g,G A double argument representing a floating-point number is converted in
- style f or e (or in style F or E in the case of a G conversion specifier),
- depending on the value converted and the precision. Let P equal the
- precision if nonzero, 6 if the precision is omitted, or 1 if the precision is zero.
- Then, if a conversion with style E would have an exponent of X:
- -- if P > X >= -4, the conversion is with style f (or F) and precision
- P - (X + 1).
- -- otherwise, the conversion is with style e (or E) and precision P - 1.
- Finally, unless the # flag is used, any trailing zeros are removed from the
- fractional portion of the result and the decimal-point character is removed if
- there is no fractional portion remaining.
- A double argument representing an infinity or NaN is converted in the style
- of an f or F conversion specifier.
-a,A A double argument representing a floating-point number is converted in the
- style [-]0xh.hhhh p(+-)d, where there is one hexadecimal digit (which is
- nonzero if the argument is a normalized floating-point number and is
- otherwise unspecified) before the decimal-point character271) and the number
- of hexadecimal digits after it is equal to the precision; if the precision is
- missing and FLT_RADIX is a power of 2, then the precision is sufficient for
- an exact representation of the value; if the precision is missing and
- FLT_RADIX is not a power of 2, then the precision is sufficient to

- that subsequent digits align to nibble (4-bit) boundaries.
-
-[page 313]
-
- distinguish272) values of type double, except that trailing zeros may be
- omitted; if the precision is zero and the # flag is not specified, no decimal-
- point character appears. The letters abcdef are used for a conversion and
- the letters ABCDEF for A conversion. The A conversion specifier produces a
- number with X and P instead of x and p. The exponent always contains at
- least one digit, and only as many more digits as necessary to represent the
- decimal exponent of 2. If the value is zero, the exponent is zero.
- A double argument representing an infinity or NaN is converted in the style
- of an f or F conversion specifier.
-c If no l length modifier is present, the int argument is converted to an
- unsigned char, and the resulting character is written.
- If an l length modifier is present, the wint_t argument is converted as if by
- an ls conversion specification with no precision and an argument that points
- to the initial element of a two-element array of wchar_t, the first element
- containing the wint_t argument to the lc conversion specification and the
- second a null wide character.
-s If no l length modifier is present, the argument shall be a pointer to the initial
- element of an array of character type.273) Characters from the array are
- written up to (but not including) the terminating null character. If the
- precision is specified, no more than that many bytes are written. If the
- precision is not specified or is greater than the size of the array, the array shall
- contain a null character.
- If an l length modifier is present, the argument shall be a pointer to the initial
- element of an array of wchar_t type. Wide characters from the array are
- converted to multibyte characters (each as if by a call to the wcrtomb
- function, with the conversion state described by an mbstate_t object
- initialized to zero before the first wide character is converted) up to and
- including a terminating null wide character. The resulting multibyte
- characters are written up to (but not including) the terminating null character
- (byte). If no precision is specified, the array shall contain a null wide
- character. If a precision is specified, no more than that many bytes are
- written (including shift sequences, if any), and the array shall contain a null
- wide character if, to equal the multibyte character sequence length given by
-
-272) The precision p is sufficient to distinguish values of the source type if 16 p-1 > b n where b is
- FLT_RADIX and n is the number of base-b digits in the significand of the source type. A smaller p
- might suffice depending on the implementation's scheme for determining the digit to the left of the
- decimal-point character.
-273) No special provisions are made for multibyte characters.
-
-[page 314]
-
- the precision, the function would need to access a wide character one past the
- end of the array. In no case is a partial multibyte character written.274)
- p The argument shall be a pointer to void. The value of the pointer is
- converted to a sequence of printing characters, in an implementation-defined
- manner.
- n The argument shall be a pointer to signed 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, but one is consumed. If the conversion
- specification includes any flags, a field width, or a precision, the behavior is
- undefined.
- % A % character is written. No argument is converted. The complete
- conversion specification shall be %%.
-9 If a conversion specification is invalid, the behavior is undefined.275) If any argument is
- not the correct type for the corresponding conversion specification, the behavior is
- undefined.
-10 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.
-11 For a and A conversions, if FLT_RADIX is a power of 2, the value is correctly rounded
- to a hexadecimal floating number with the given precision.
- Recommended practice
-12 For a and A conversions, if FLT_RADIX is not a power of 2 and the result is not exactly
- representable in the given precision, the result should be one of the two adjacent numbers
- in hexadecimal floating style with the given precision, with the extra stipulation that the
- error should have a correct sign for the current rounding direction.
-13 For e, E, f, F, g, and G conversions, if the number of significant decimal digits is at most
- DECIMAL_DIG, then the result should be correctly rounded.276) If the number of
- significant decimal digits is more than DECIMAL_DIG but the source value is exactly
- representable with DECIMAL_DIG digits, then the result should be an exact
- representation with trailing zeros. Otherwise, the source value is bounded by two
- adjacent decimal strings L < U, both having DECIMAL_DIG significant digits; the value

- 275) See ''future library directions'' (7.30.9).
- 276) For binary-to-decimal conversion, the result format's values are the numbers representable with the
- given format specifier. The number of significant digits is determined by the format specifier, and in
- the case of fixed-point conversion by the source value as well.

- of the resultant decimal string D should satisfy L <= D <= U, with the extra stipulation that

- Returns
-14 The fprintf function returns the number of characters transmitted, or a negative value
- if an output or encoding error occurred.
- Environmental limits
-15 The number of characters that can be produced by any single conversion shall be at least
- 4095.
-16 EXAMPLE 1 To print a date and time in the form ''Sunday, July 3, 10:02'' followed by pi to five decimal
- places:
- #include <math.h>
- #include <stdio.h>
- /* ... */
- char *weekday, *month; // pointers to strings
- int day, hour, min;
- fprintf(stdout, "%s, %s %d, %.2d:%.2d\n",
- weekday, month, day, hour, min);
- fprintf(stdout, "pi = %.5f\n", 4 * atan(1.0));

-17 EXAMPLE 2 In this example, multibyte characters do not have a state-dependent encoding, and the
- members of the extended character set that consist of more than one byte each consist of exactly two bytes,

- 7.21.6.2 The fscanf function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdio.h>
- int fscanf(FILE * restrict stream,
- const char * restrict format, ...);
- Description
-2 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.
-3 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 (neither % nor a white-space character), or a
- conversion specification. Each conversion specification is introduced by the character %.
- After the %, the following appear in sequence:
- -- An optional assignment-suppressing character *.
- -- An optional decimal integer greater than zero that specifies the maximum field width
- (in characters).
- -- An optional length modifier that specifies the size of the receiving object.
- -- A conversion specifier character that specifies the type of conversion to be applied.
-4 The fscanf function executes each directive of the format in turn. When all directives
- have been executed, or if a directive fails (as detailed below), the function returns.
- Failures are described as input failures (due to the occurrence of an encoding error or the
- unavailability of input characters), or matching failures (due to inappropriate input).
-5 A directive composed of white-space character(s) is executed by reading input up to the
- first non-white-space character (which remains unread), or until no more characters can
- be read.
-6 A directive that is an ordinary multibyte character is executed by reading the next
- characters of the stream. If any of those characters differ from the ones composing the
- directive, the directive fails and the differing and subsequent characters remain unread.
- Similarly, if end-of-file, an encoding error, or a read error prevents a character from being
- read, the directive fails.
-7 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
-
-[page 317]
-
- following steps:
-8 Input white-space characters (as specified by the isspace function) are skipped, unless
- the specification includes a [, c, or n specifier.277)
-9 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 which does not exceed
- any specified field width and which is, or is a prefix of, a matching input sequence.278)
- 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
- end-of-file, an encoding error, or a read error prevented input from the stream, in which
- case it is an input failure.
-10 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 object, the behavior is undefined.
-11 The length modifiers and their meanings are:
- hh Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, X, or n conversion specifier applies
- to an argument with type pointer to signed char or unsigned char.
- h Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, X, or n conversion specifier applies
- to an argument with type pointer to short int or unsigned short
- int.
- l (ell) Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, X, or n conversion specifier applies
- to an argument with type pointer to long int or unsigned long
- int; that a following a, A, e, E, f, F, g, or G conversion specifier applies to
- an argument with type pointer to double; or that a following c, s, or [
- conversion specifier applies to an argument with type pointer to wchar_t.
- ll (ell-ell) Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, X, or n conversion specifier applies
- to an argument with type pointer to long long int or unsigned
- long long int.
-
-
-
- 277) These white-space characters are not counted against a specified field width.
- 278) fscanf pushes back at most one input character onto the input stream. Therefore, some sequences
- that are acceptable to strtod, strtol, etc., are unacceptable to fscanf.
-
-[page 318]
-
- j Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, X, or n conversion specifier applies
- to an argument with type pointer to intmax_t or uintmax_t.
- z Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, X, or n conversion specifier applies
- to an argument with type pointer to size_t or the corresponding signed
- integer type.
- t Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, X, or n conversion specifier applies
- to an argument with type pointer to ptrdiff_t or the corresponding
- unsigned integer type.
- L Specifies that a following a, A, e, E, f, F, g, or G conversion specifier
- applies to an argument with type pointer to long double.
- If a length modifier appears with any conversion specifier other than as specified above,
- the behavior is undefined.
-12 The conversion specifiers and their meanings are:
- 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
- signed 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 signed
- 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.
- a,e,f,g Matches an optionally signed floating-point number, infinity, or NaN, whose
- format is the same as expected for the subject sequence of the strtod
- function. The corresponding argument shall be a pointer to floating.
-
-[page 319]
-
-c Matches a sequence of characters of exactly the number specified by the field
- width (1 if no field width is present in the directive).279)
- If no l length modifier is present, the corresponding argument shall be a
- pointer to the initial element of a character array large enough to accept the
- sequence. No null character is added.
- If an l length modifier is present, the input shall be a sequence of multibyte
- characters that begins in the initial shift state. Each multibyte character in the
- sequence is converted to a wide character as if by a call to the mbrtowc
- function, with the conversion state described by an mbstate_t object
- initialized to zero before the first multibyte character is converted. The
- corresponding argument shall be a pointer to the initial element of an array of
- wchar_t large enough to accept the resulting sequence of wide characters.
- No null wide character is added.
-s Matches a sequence of non-white-space characters.279)
- If no l length modifier is present, the corresponding argument shall be a
- pointer to the initial element of a character array large enough to accept the
- sequence and a terminating null character, which will be added automatically.
- If an l length modifier is present, the input shall be a sequence of multibyte
- characters that begins in the initial shift state. Each multibyte character is
- converted to a wide character as if by a call to the mbrtowc function, with
- the conversion state described by an mbstate_t object initialized to zero
- before the first multibyte character is converted. The corresponding argument
- shall be a pointer to the initial element of an array of wchar_t large enough
- to accept the sequence and the terminating null wide character, which will be
- added automatically.
-[ Matches a nonempty sequence of characters from a set of expected characters
- (the scanset).279)
- If no l length modifier is present, the corresponding argument shall be a
- pointer to the initial element of a character array large enough to accept the
- sequence and a terminating null character, which will be added automatically.
- If an l length modifier is present, the input shall be a sequence of multibyte
- characters that begins in the initial shift state. Each multibyte character is
- converted to a wide character as if by a call to the mbrtowc function, with
- the conversion state described by an mbstate_t object initialized to zero
-
-279) No special provisions are made for multibyte characters in the matching rules used by the c, s, and [
- conversion specifiers -- the extent of the input field is determined on a byte-by-byte basis. The
- resulting field is nevertheless a sequence of multibyte characters that begins in the initial shift state.
-
-[page 320]
-
- before the first multibyte character is converted. The corresponding argument
- shall be a pointer to the initial element of an array of wchar_t large enough
- to accept the sequence and the terminating null wide 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) compose 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. If the conversion specifier begins with [] or [^], the right
- bracket character is in the scanlist and the next following right bracket
- character is the matching right bracket that ends the specification; otherwise
- the first following right bracket character is the one 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.
- 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 input item is converted to a pointer value in an
- implementation-defined manner. If the input item is a value converted earlier
- during the same program execution, the pointer that results shall compare
- equal to that value; otherwise the behavior of the %p conversion is undefined.
- n No input is consumed. The corresponding argument shall be a pointer to
- signed 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. No argument is converted,
- but one is consumed. If the conversion specification includes an assignment-
- suppressing character or a field width, the behavior is undefined.
- % Matches a single % character; no conversion or assignment occurs. The
- complete conversion specification shall be %%.
-13 If a conversion specification is invalid, the behavior is undefined.280)
-14 The conversion specifiers A, E, F, G, and X are also valid and behave the same as,
- respectively, a, e, f, g, and x.

-
-[page 321]
-
-15 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
-16 The fscanf function returns the value of the macro EOF if an input failure occurs
- before the first conversion (if any) has completed. Otherwise, the 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.
-17 EXAMPLE 1 The call:
- #include <stdio.h>
- /* ... */
- int n, i; float x; char name[50];
- n = fscanf(stdin, "%d%f%s", &i, &x, name);
- with the input line:
- 25 54.32E-1 thompson
- will assign to n the value 3, to i the value 25, to x the value 5.432, and to name the sequence
- thompson\0.
-
-18 EXAMPLE 2 The call:
- #include <stdio.h>
- /* ... */
- int i; float x; char name[50];
- fscanf(stdin, "%2d%f%*d %[0123456789]", &i, &x, name);
- with input:
- 56789 0123 56a72
- will assign to i the value 56 and to x the value 789.0, will skip 0123, and will assign to name the
- sequence 56\0. The next character read from the input stream will be a.
-
-19 EXAMPLE 3 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];
- do {
- count = fscanf(stdin, "%f%20s of %20s", &quant, units, item);
- fscanf(stdin,"%*[^\n]");
- } while (!feof(stdin) && !ferror(stdin));
-20 If the stdin stream contains the following lines:
- 2 quarts of oil
- -12.8degrees Celsius
- lots of luck
- 10.0LBS of
- dirt
- 100ergs of energy
-
-[page 322]
-
- the execution of the above example will be analogous to the following assignments:
- quant = 2; strcpy(units, "quarts"); strcpy(item, "oil");
- count = 3;
- quant = -12.8; strcpy(units, "degrees");
- count = 2; // "C" fails to match "o"
- count = 0; // "l" fails to match "%f"
- quant = 10.0; strcpy(units, "LBS"); strcpy(item, "dirt");
- count = 3;
- count = 0; // "100e" fails to match "%f"
- count = EOF;
-
-21 EXAMPLE 4 In:
- #include <stdio.h>
- /* ... */
- int d1, d2, n1, n2, i;
- i = sscanf("123", "%d%n%n%d", &d1, &n1, &n2, &d2);
- the value 123 is assigned to d1 and the value 3 to n1. Because %n can never get an input failure the value
- of 3 is also assigned to n2. The value of d2 is not affected. The value 1 is assigned to i.
-
-22 EXAMPLE 5 In these examples, multibyte characters do have a state-dependent encoding, and the
- members of the extended character set that consist of more than one byte each consist of exactly two bytes,
- the first of which is denoted here by a and the second by an uppercase letter, but are only recognized as
- such when in the alternate shift state. The shift sequences are denoted by (uparrow) and (downarrow), in which the first causes
- entry into the alternate shift state.
-23 After the call:
- #include <stdio.h>
- /* ... */
- char str[50];
- fscanf(stdin, "a%s", str);
- with the input line:
- a(uparrow) X Y(downarrow) bc
- str will contain (uparrow) X Y(downarrow)\0 assuming that none of the bytes of the shift sequences (or of the multibyte
- characters, in the more general case) appears to be a single-byte white-space character.
-24 In contrast, after the call:
- #include <stdio.h>
- #include <stddef.h>
- /* ... */
- wchar_t wstr[50];
- fscanf(stdin, "a%ls", wstr);
- with the same input line, wstr will contain the two wide characters that correspond to X and Y and a
- terminating null wide character.
-25 However, the call:
-
-[page 323]
-
- #include <stdio.h>
- #include <stddef.h>
- /* ... */
- wchar_t wstr[50];
- fscanf(stdin, "a(uparrow) X(downarrow)%ls", wstr);
- with the same input line will return zero due to a matching failure against the (downarrow) sequence in the format
- string.
-26 Assuming that the first byte of the multibyte character X is the same as the first byte of the multibyte
- character Y, after the call:
- #include <stdio.h>
- #include <stddef.h>
- /* ... */
- wchar_t wstr[50];
- fscanf(stdin, "a(uparrow) Y(downarrow)%ls", wstr);
- with the same input line, zero will again be returned, but stdin will be left with a partially consumed
- multibyte character.

-
-[page 324]
-
- Returns
-3 The scanf function returns the value of the macro EOF if an input failure occurs before

- 7.21.6.5 The snprintf function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdio.h>
- int snprintf(char * restrict s, size_t n,
- const char * restrict format, ...);
- Description
-2 The snprintf function is equivalent to fprintf, except that the output is written into
- an array (specified by argument s) rather than to a stream. If n is zero, nothing is written,
- and s may be a null pointer. Otherwise, output characters beyond the n-1st are
- discarded rather than being written to the array, and a null character is written at the end
- of the characters actually written into the array. If copying takes place between objects
- that overlap, the behavior is undefined.
- Returns
-3 The snprintf function returns the number of characters that would have been written
- had n been sufficiently large, not counting the terminating null character, or a negative
- value if an encoding error occurred. Thus, the null-terminated output has been
- completely written if and only if the returned value is nonnegative and less than n.
- 7.21.6.6 The sprintf function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdio.h>
- int sprintf(char * restrict s,
- const char * restrict format, ...);
- Description
-2 The sprintf function is equivalent to fprintf, except that the output is written into
- an array (specified by the argument s) rather than to a stream. A null character is written
- at the end of the characters written; it is not counted as part of the returned value. If
- copying takes place between objects that overlap, the behavior is undefined.
- Returns
-3 The sprintf function returns the number of characters written in the array, not
- counting the terminating null character, or a negative value if an encoding error occurred.

- 7.21.6.7 The sscanf function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdio.h>
- int sscanf(const char * restrict s,
- const char * restrict format, ...);
- Description
-2 The sscanf function is equivalent to fscanf, except that input is obtained from a
- string (specified by the argument s) rather than from a stream. Reaching the end of the
- string is equivalent to encountering end-of-file for the fscanf function. If copying
- takes place between objects that overlap, the behavior is undefined.
- Returns
-3 The sscanf function returns the value of the macro EOF if an input failure occurs
- before the first conversion (if any) has completed. Otherwise, the sscanf 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.

- Returns
-3 The vfprintf function returns the number of characters transmitted, or a negative
- value if an output or encoding error occurred.
-4 EXAMPLE The following shows the use of the vfprintf function in a general error-reporting routine.

-2 The fgets function reads at most one less than the number of characters specified by n
- from the stream pointed to by stream into the array pointed to by s. No additional
- characters are read after a new-line character (which is retained) or after end-of-file. A
- null character is written immediately after the last character read into the array.
- Returns
-3 The fgets 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. If a read error occurs during the operation, the array contents are
- indeterminate and a null pointer is returned.
-
- 282) An end-of-file and a read error can be distinguished by use of the feof and ferror functions.

- 7.21.7.3 The fputc function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdio.h>
- int fputc(int c, FILE *stream);
- Description
-2 The fputc function writes the character specified by c (converted to an unsigned
- char) to the output stream pointed to by stream, at the position indicated by the
- associated file position indicator for the stream (if defined), and advances the indicator
- appropriately. If the file cannot support positioning requests, or if the stream was opened
- with append mode, the character is appended to the output stream.
- Returns
-3 The fputc function returns the character written. If a write error occurs, the error
- indicator for the stream is set and fputc returns EOF.
- 7.21.7.4 The fputs function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdio.h>
- int fputs(const char * restrict s,
- FILE * restrict stream);
- Description
-2 The fputs function writes the string pointed to by s to the stream pointed to by
- stream. The terminating null character is not written.
- Returns
-3 The fputs function returns EOF if a write error occurs; otherwise it returns a
- nonnegative value.
- 7.21.7.5 The getc function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdio.h>
- int getc(FILE *stream);
- Description
-2 The getc function is equivalent to fgetc, except that if it is implemented as a macro, it
- may evaluate stream more than once, so the argument should never be an expression
- with side effects.
-
-[page 331]
-
- Returns
-3 The getc function returns the next character from the input stream pointed to by
- stream. If the stream is at end-of-file, the end-of-file indicator for the stream is set and
- getc returns EOF. If a read error occurs, the error indicator for the stream is set and
- getc returns EOF.
- 7.21.7.6 The getchar function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdio.h>
- int getchar(void);
- Description
-2 The getchar function is equivalent to getc with the argument stdin.
- Returns
-3 The getchar function returns the next character from the input stream pointed to by
- stdin. If the stream is at end-of-file, the end-of-file indicator for the stream is set and
- getchar returns EOF. If a read error occurs, the error indicator for the stream is set and
- getchar returns EOF. *
- 7.21.7.7 The putc function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdio.h>
- int putc(int c, FILE *stream);
- Description
-2 The putc function is equivalent to fputc, except that if it is implemented as a macro, it
- may evaluate stream more than once, so that argument should never be an expression
- with side effects.
- Returns
-3 The putc function returns the character written. If a write error occurs, the error
- indicator for the stream is set and putc returns EOF.
- 7.21.7.8 The putchar function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdio.h>
- int putchar(int c);
- Description
-2 The putchar function is equivalent to putc with the second argument stdout.
-
-[page 332]
-
- Returns
-3 The putchar function returns the character written. If a write error occurs, the error
- indicator for the stream is set and putchar returns EOF.
- 7.21.7.9 The puts function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdio.h>
- int puts(const char *s);
- Description
-2 The puts function writes the string pointed to by s to the stream pointed to by stdout,
- and appends a new-line character to the output. The terminating null character is not
- written.
- Returns
-3 The puts function returns EOF if a write error occurs; otherwise it returns a nonnegative
- value.
- 7.21.7.10 The ungetc function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdio.h>
- int ungetc(int c, FILE *stream);
- Description
-2 The ungetc function pushes the character specified by c (converted to an unsigned
- char) back onto the input stream pointed to by stream. 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.
-3 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.
-4 If the value of c equals that of the macro EOF, the operation fails and the input stream is
- unchanged.
-5 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.
-
-[page 333]
-
- 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.283)
- Returns
-6 The ungetc function returns the character pushed back after conversion, or EOF if the
- operation fails.

- 7.21.8.1 The fread function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdio.h>
- size_t fread(void * restrict ptr,
- size_t size, size_t nmemb,
- FILE * restrict stream);
- Description
-2 The fread function reads, into the array pointed to by ptr, up to nmemb elements
- whose size is specified by size, from the stream pointed to by stream. For each
- object, size calls are made to the fgetc function and the results stored, in the order
- read, in an array of unsigned char exactly overlaying the object. 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 element is read, its value is indeterminate.
- Returns
-3 The fread function returns the number of elements 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.

- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdio.h>
- size_t fwrite(const void * restrict ptr,
- size_t size, size_t nmemb,
- FILE * restrict stream);
- Description
-2 The fwrite function writes, from the array pointed to by ptr, up to nmemb elements
- whose size is specified by size, to the stream pointed to by stream. For each object,
- size calls are made to the fputc function, taking the values (in order) from an array of
- unsigned char exactly overlaying the object. 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
-3 The fwrite function returns the number of elements successfully written, which will be
- less than nmemb only if a write error is encountered. If size or nmemb is zero,
- fwrite returns zero and the state of the stream remains unchanged.
- 7.21.9 File positioning functions
- 7.21.9.1 The fgetpos function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdio.h>
- int fgetpos(FILE * restrict stream,
- fpos_t * restrict pos);
- Description
-2 The fgetpos function stores the current values of the parse state (if any) and file
- position indicator for the stream pointed to by stream in the object pointed to by pos.
- The values stored contain 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
-3 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 (7.21.9.3).
-
-[page 335]
-
- 7.21.9.2 The fseek function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdio.h>
- int fseek(FILE *stream, long int offset, int whence);
- Description
-2 The fseek function sets the file position indicator for the stream pointed to by stream.
- If a read or write error occurs, the error indicator for the stream is set and fseek fails.
-3 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
- position is the beginning of the file if whence is SEEK_SET, the current value of the file
- position indicator if SEEK_CUR, or end-of-file if SEEK_END. A binary stream need not
- meaningfully support fseek calls with a whence value of SEEK_END.
-4 For a text stream, either offset shall be zero, or offset shall be a value returned by
- an earlier successful call to the ftell function on a stream associated with the same file
- and whence shall be SEEK_SET.
-5 After determining the new position, a successful call to the fseek function undoes any
- effects of the ungetc function on the stream, clears the end-of-file indicator for the
- stream, and then establishes the new position. After a successful fseek call, the next
- operation on an update stream may be either input or output.
- Returns
-6 The fseek function returns nonzero only for a request that cannot be satisfied.
- Forward references: the ftell function (7.21.9.4).
- 7.21.9.3 The fsetpos function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdio.h>
- int fsetpos(FILE *stream, const fpos_t *pos);
- Description
-2 The fsetpos function sets the mbstate_t object (if any) and 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 obtained from an earlier successful call to the fgetpos
- function on a stream associated with the same file. If a read or write error occurs, the
- error indicator for the stream is set and fsetpos fails.
-3 A successful call to the fsetpos function undoes any effects of the ungetc function
- on the stream, clears the end-of-file indicator for the stream, and then establishes the new
- parse state and position. After a successful fsetpos call, the next operation on an
-
-[page 336]
-
- update stream may be either input or output.
- Returns
-4 If successful, the fsetpos function returns zero; on failure, the fsetpos function
- returns nonzero and stores an implementation-defined positive value in errno.
- 7.21.9.4 The ftell function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdio.h>
- long int ftell(FILE *stream);
- Description
-2 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
-3 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.
- 7.21.9.5 The rewind function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdio.h>
- void rewind(FILE *stream);
- Description
-2 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.
- Returns
-3 The rewind function returns no value.

- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdio.h>

- Returns
-3 The feof function returns nonzero if and only if the end-of-file indicator is set for
- stream.
- 7.21.10.3 The ferror function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdio.h>
- int ferror(FILE *stream);
- Description

- 7.21.10.4 The perror function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdio.h>

- Description
-2 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.

- 7.22.1.3 The strtod, strtof, and strtold functions
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdlib.h>
- double strtod(const char * restrict nptr,
- char ** restrict endptr);
- float strtof(const char * restrict nptr,
- char ** restrict endptr);
- long double strtold(const char * restrict nptr,
- char ** restrict endptr);
- Description
-2 The strtod, strtof, and strtold functions convert the initial portion of the string
- pointed to by nptr to double, float, and long double representation,
- respectively. First, they decompose 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 or representing an infinity or NaN;
- and a final string of one or more unrecognized characters, including the terminating null
- character of the input string. Then, they attempt to convert the subject sequence to a
- floating-point number, and return the result.
-3 The expected form of the subject sequence is an optional plus or minus sign, then one of
- the following:
- -- a nonempty sequence of decimal digits optionally containing a decimal-point
- character, then an optional exponent part as defined in 6.4.4.2;
- -- a 0x or 0X, then a nonempty sequence of hexadecimal digits optionally containing a
- decimal-point character, then an optional binary exponent part as defined in 6.4.4.2;
- -- INF or INFINITY, ignoring case
- -- NAN or NAN(n-char-sequenceopt), ignoring case in the NAN part, where:
- n-char-sequence:
- digit
- nondigit
- n-char-sequence digit
- n-char-sequence nondigit
- The subject sequence is defined as the longest initial subsequence of the input string,
- starting with the first non-white-space character, that is of the expected form. The subject
- sequence contains no characters if the input string is not of the expected form.
-4 If the subject sequence has the expected form for a floating-point number, 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 6.4.4.2, except that the
-
-[page 342]
-
- decimal-point character is used in place of a period, and that if neither an exponent part
- nor a decimal-point character appears in a decimal floating point number, or if a binary
- exponent part does not appear in a hexadecimal floating point number, an exponent part
- of the appropriate type with value zero is assumed to follow the last digit in the string. If
- the subject sequence begins with a minus sign, the sequence is interpreted as negated.285)
- A character sequence INF or INFINITY is interpreted as an infinity, if representable in
- the return type, else like a floating constant that is too large for the range of the return
- type. A character sequence NAN or NAN(n-char-sequenceopt), is interpreted as a quiet
- NaN, if supported in the return type, else like a subject sequence part that does not have
- the expected form; the meaning of the n-char sequences is implementation-defined.286) A
- pointer to the final string is stored in the object pointed to by endptr, provided that
- endptr is not a null pointer.
-5 If the subject sequence has the hexadecimal form and FLT_RADIX is a power of 2, the
- value resulting from the conversion is correctly rounded.
-6 In other than the "C" locale, additional locale-specific subject sequence forms may be
- accepted.
-7 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.
- Recommended practice
-8 If the subject sequence has the hexadecimal form, FLT_RADIX is not a power of 2, and
- the result is not exactly representable, the result should be one of the two numbers in the
- appropriate internal format that are adjacent to the hexadecimal floating source value,
- with the extra stipulation that the error should have a correct sign for the current rounding
- direction.
-9 If the subject sequence has the decimal form and at most DECIMAL_DIG (defined in
- <float.h>) significant digits, the result should be correctly rounded. If the subject
- sequence D has the decimal form and more than DECIMAL_DIG significant digits,
- consider the two bounding, adjacent decimal strings L and U, both having
- DECIMAL_DIG significant digits, such that the values of L, D, and U satisfy L <= D <= U.
- The result should be one of the (equal or adjacent) values that would be obtained by
- correctly rounding L and U according to the current rounding direction, with the extra
-
- 285) It is unspecified whether a minus-signed sequence is converted to a negative number directly or by
- negating the value resulting from converting the corresponding unsigned sequence (see F.5); the two
- methods may yield different results if rounding is toward positive or negative infinity. In either case,
- the functions honor the sign of zero if floating-point arithmetic supports signed zeros.
- 286) An implementation may use the n-char sequence to determine extra information to be represented in
- the NaN's significand.
-
-[page 343]
-
- stipulation that the error with respect to D should have a correct sign for the current
- rounding direction.287)
- Returns
-10 The functions return the converted value, if any. If no conversion could be performed,
- zero is returned. If the correct value overflows and default rounding is in effect (7.12.1),
- plus or minus HUGE_VAL, HUGE_VALF, or HUGE_VALL is returned (according to the
- return type and sign of the value), and the value of the macro ERANGE is stored in
- errno. If the result underflows (7.12.1), the functions return a value whose magnitude is
- no greater than the smallest normalized positive number in the return type; whether
- errno acquires the value ERANGE is implementation-defined.
- 7.22.1.4 The strtol, strtoll, strtoul, and strtoull functions
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdlib.h>
- long int strtol(
- const char * restrict nptr,
- char ** restrict endptr,
- int base);
- long long int strtoll(
- const char * restrict nptr,

- unsigned long int strtoul(
- const char * restrict nptr,
- char ** restrict endptr,
- int base);
- unsigned long long int strtoull(
- const char * restrict nptr,
- char ** restrict endptr,
- int base);
- Description
-2 The strtol, strtoll, strtoul, and strtoull functions convert the initial
- portion of the string pointed to by nptr to long int, long long int, unsigned
- long int, and unsigned long long int representation, respectively. First,
- they decompose the input string into three parts: an initial, possibly empty, sequence of
- white-space characters (as specified by the isspace function), a subject sequence
-
-
- 287) DECIMAL_DIG, defined in <float.h>, should be sufficiently large that L and U will usually round
- to the same internal floating value, but if not will round to adjacent values.
-
-[page 344]
-
- 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, they attempt to convert the subject sequence to an
- integer, and return the result.
-3 If the value of base is zero, the expected form of the subject sequence is that of an
- integer constant as described in 6.4.4.1, optionally preceded by a plus or minus sign, but
- not including an integer suffix. If the value of base is between 2 and 36 (inclusive), 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 through 35; only letters and digits 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.
-4 The subject sequence is defined as the longest initial subsequence of the input string,
- starting with the first non-white-space character, that is 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.
-5 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 6.4.4.1. 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 (in the return type). A pointer to the final string is stored in the
- object pointed to by endptr, provided that endptr is not a null pointer.
-6 In other than the "C" locale, additional locale-specific subject sequence forms may be
- accepted.
-7 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
-8 The strtol, strtoll, strtoul, and strtoull functions return the converted
- value, if any. If no conversion could be performed, zero is returned. If the correct value
- is outside the range of representable values, LONG_MIN, LONG_MAX, LLONG_MIN,
- LLONG_MAX, ULONG_MAX, or ULLONG_MAX is returned (according to the return type
- and sign of the value, if any), and the value of the macro ERANGE is stored in errno.

- Description
-2 The rand function computes a sequence of pseudo-random integers in the range 0 to

- 7.22.2.2 The srand function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdlib.h>

- Description
-2 The srand function uses the argument as a seed for a new sequence of pseudo-random

-4 The srand function returns no value.
-
-
-
-
- 288) There are no guarantees as to the quality of the random sequence produced and some implementations
- are known to produce sequences with distressingly non-random low-order bits. Applications with

- 7.22.3 Memory management functions
-1 The order and contiguity of storage allocated by successive calls to the
- aligned_alloc, 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 with a fundamental alignment requirement and then used
- to access such an object or an array of such objects in the space allocated (until the space
- is explicitly deallocated). The lifetime of an allocated object extends from the allocation
- until the deallocation. 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: either a null pointer
- is returned, or the behavior is as if the size were some nonzero value, except that the
- returned pointer shall not be used to access an object.
- 7.22.3.1 The aligned_alloc function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdlib.h>
- void *aligned_alloc(size_t alignment, size_t size);
- Description
-2 The aligned_alloc function allocates space for an object whose alignment is
- specified by alignment, whose size is specified by size, and whose value is
- indeterminate. The value of alignment shall be a valid alignment supported by the
- implementation and the value of size shall be an integral multiple of alignment.
- Returns
-3 The aligned_alloc function returns either a null pointer or a pointer to the allocated
- space.
-
-[page 347]
-
- 7.22.3.2 The calloc function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdlib.h>
- void *calloc(size_t nmemb, size_t size);
- Description
-2 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.289)
- Returns
-3 The calloc function returns either a null pointer or a pointer to the allocated space.
- 7.22.3.3 The free function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdlib.h>
- void free(void *ptr);
- Description
-2 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 a memory management
- function, or if the space has been deallocated by a call to free or realloc, the
- behavior is undefined.
- Returns
-3 The free function returns no value.
- 7.22.3.4 The malloc function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdlib.h>
- void *malloc(size_t size);
- Description
-2 The malloc function allocates space for an object whose size is specified by size and
- whose value is indeterminate.
-
-
-
-
- 289) Note that this need not be the same as the representation of floating-point zero or a null pointer
- constant.
-
-[page 348]
-
- Returns
-3 The malloc function returns either a null pointer or a pointer to the allocated space.
- 7.22.3.5 The realloc function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdlib.h>
- void *realloc(void *ptr, size_t size);
- Description
-2 The realloc function deallocates the old object pointed to by ptr and returns a
- pointer to a new object that has the size specified by size. The contents of the new
- object shall be the same as that of the old object prior to deallocation, up to the lesser of
- the new and old sizes. Any bytes in the new object beyond the size of the old object have
- indeterminate values.
-3 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 a memory
- management function, or if the space has been deallocated by a call to the free or
- realloc function, the behavior is undefined. If memory for the new object cannot be
- allocated, the old object is not deallocated and its value is unchanged.
- Returns
-4 The realloc function returns a pointer to the new object (which may have the same
- value as a pointer to the old object), or a null pointer if the new object could not be
- allocated.
- 7.22.4 Communication with the environment
- 7.22.4.1 The abort function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdlib.h>
- _Noreturn void abort(void);
- Description
-2 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 streams
- with unwritten buffered data are flushed, open streams are closed, or temporary files are
- 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).
-
-[page 349]
-
- Returns
-3 The abort function does not return to its caller.
- 7.22.4.2 The atexit function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdlib.h>
- int atexit(void (*func)(void));
- Description
-2 The atexit function registers the function pointed to by func, to be called without
- arguments at normal program termination.290)
- Environmental limits
-3 The implementation shall support the registration of at least 32 functions.
- Returns
-4 The atexit function returns zero if the registration succeeds, nonzero if it fails.
- Forward references: the at_quick_exit function (7.22.4.3), the exit function
- (7.22.4.4).
- 7.22.4.3 The at_quick_exit function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdlib.h>
- int at_quick_exit(void (*func)(void));
- Description
-2 The at_quick_exit function registers the function pointed to by func, to be called
- without arguments should quick_exit be called.291)
- Environmental limits
-3 The implementation shall support the registration of at least 32 functions.
- Returns
-4 The at_quick_exit function returns zero if the registration succeeds, nonzero if it
- fails.
- Forward references: the quick_exit function (7.22.4.7).
-
-
- 290) The atexit function registrations are distinct from the at_quick_exit registrations, so
- applications may need to call both registration functions with the same argument.
- 291) The at_quick_exit function registrations are distinct from the atexit registrations, so
- applications may need to call both registration functions with the same argument.
-
-[page 350]
-
- 7.22.4.4 The exit function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdlib.h>
- _Noreturn void exit(int status);
- Description
-2 The exit function causes normal program termination to occur. No functions registered
- by the at_quick_exit function are called. If a program calls the exit function
- more than once, or calls the quick_exit function in addition to the exit function, the
- behavior is undefined.
-3 First, all functions registered by the atexit function are called, in the reverse order of
- their registration,292) except that a function is called after any previously registered
- functions that had already been called at the time it was registered. If, during the call to
- any such function, a call to the longjmp function is made that would terminate the call
- to the registered function, the behavior is undefined.
-4 Next, all open streams with unwritten buffered data are flushed, all open streams are
- closed, and all files created by the tmpfile function are removed.
-5 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.
- Returns
-6 The exit function cannot return to its caller.
- 7.22.4.5 The _Exit function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdlib.h>
- _Noreturn void _Exit(int status);
- Description
-2 The _Exit function causes normal program termination to occur and control to be
- returned to the host environment. No functions registered by the atexit function, the
- at_quick_exit function, or signal handlers registered by the signal function are
- called. The status returned to the host environment is determined in the same way as for
-
-
- 292) Each function is called as many times as it was registered, and in the correct order with respect to
- other registered functions.
-
-[page 351]
-
- the exit function (7.22.4.4). Whether open streams with unwritten buffered data are
- flushed, open streams are closed, or temporary files are removed is implementation-
- defined.
- Returns
-3 The _Exit function cannot return to its caller.
- 7.22.4.6 The getenv function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdlib.h>
- char *getenv(const char *name);
- Description
-2 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
- getenv function need not avoid data races with other threads of execution that modify
- the environment list.293)
-3 The implementation shall behave as if no library function calls the getenv function.
- Returns
-4 The getenv function returns a pointer to a string associated with the matched list
- member. The string 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.
- 7.22.4.7 The quick_exit function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdlib.h>
- _Noreturn void quick_exit(int status);
- Description
-2 The quick_exit function causes normal program termination to occur. No functions
- registered by the atexit function or signal handlers registered by the signal function
- are called. If a program calls the quick_exit function more than once, or calls the
- exit function in addition to the quick_exit function, the behavior is undefined.
-3 The quick_exit function first calls all functions registered by the at_quick_exit
- function, in the reverse order of their registration,294) except that a function is called after
-
-
- 293) Many implementations provide non-standard functions that modify the environment list.
-
-[page 352]
-
- any previously registered functions that had already been called at the time it was
- registered. If, during the call to any such function, a call to the longjmp function is
- made that would terminate the call to the registered function, the behavior is undefined.
-4 Then control is returned to the host environment by means of the function call
- _Exit(status).
- Returns
-5 The quick_exit function cannot return to its caller.
- 7.22.4.8 The system function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdlib.h>
- int system(const char *string);
- Description
-2 If string is a null pointer, the system function determines whether the host
- environment has a command processor. If string is not a null pointer, the system
- function passes the string pointed to by string to that command processor to be
- executed in a manner which the implementation shall document; this might then cause the
- program calling system to behave in a non-conforming manner or to terminate.
- Returns
-3 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, and the system
- function does return, it returns an implementation-defined value.
- 7.22.5 Searching and sorting utilities
-1 These utilities make use of a comparison function to search or sort arrays of unspecified
- type. Where an argument declared as size_t nmemb specifies the length of the array
- for a function, nmemb can have the value zero on a call to that function; the comparison
- function is not called, a search finds no matching element, and sorting performs no
- rearrangement. Pointer arguments on such a call shall still have valid values, as described
- in 7.1.4.
-2 The implementation shall ensure that the second argument of the comparison function
- (when called from bsearch), or both arguments (when called from qsort), are
- pointers to elements of the array.295) The first argument when called from bsearch
- shall equal key.
-
-
-
- 294) Each function is called as many times as it was registered, and in the correct order with respect to
- other registered functions.
-
-[page 353]
-
-3 The comparison function shall not alter the contents of the array. The implementation
- may reorder elements of the array between calls to the comparison function, but shall not
- alter the contents of any individual element.
-4 When the same objects (consisting of size bytes, irrespective of their current positions
- in the array) are passed more than once to the comparison function, the results shall be
- consistent with one another. That is, for qsort they shall define a total ordering on the
- array, and for bsearch the same object shall always compare the same way with the
- key.
-5 A sequence point occurs immediately before and immediately after each call to the
- comparison function, and also between any call to the comparison function and any
- movement of the objects passed as arguments to that call.
- 7.22.5.1 The bsearch function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdlib.h>
- void *bsearch(const void *key, const void *base,
- size_t nmemb, size_t size,
- int (*compar)(const void *, const void *));
- Description
-2 The bsearch function searches an array of nmemb objects, the initial element of which
- is pointed to by base, for an element that matches the object pointed to by key. The
- size of each element of the array is specified by size.
-3 The comparison function pointed to by compar is called with two arguments that point
- to the key object and to an array element, in that order. The function shall return an
- integer 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 element. The array
- shall consist of: all the elements that compare less than, all the elements that compare
- equal to, and all the elements that compare greater than the key object, in that order.296)
- Returns
-4 The bsearch function returns a pointer to a matching element of the array, or a null
- pointer if no match is found. If two elements compare as equal, which element is
-
-
- 295) That is, if the value passed is p, then the following expressions are always nonzero:
- ((char *)p - (char *)base) % size == 0
- (char *)p >= (char *)base
- (char *)p < (char *)base + nmemb * size
-
- 296) In practice, the entire array is sorted according to the comparison function.
-
-[page 354]
-
- matched is unspecified.
- 7.22.5.2 The qsort function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdlib.h>
- void qsort(void *base, size_t nmemb, size_t size,
- int (*compar)(const void *, const void *));
- Description
-2 The qsort function sorts an array of nmemb objects, the initial element of which is
- pointed to by base. The size of each object is specified by size.
-3 The contents of the array are sorted into ascending order according to a comparison
- function pointed to by compar, which is called with two arguments that point to the
- objects being compared. The function shall return an integer less than, equal to, or
- greater than zero if the first argument is considered to be respectively less than, equal to,
- or greater than the second.
-4 If two elements compare as equal, their order in the resulting sorted array is unspecified.
- Returns
-5 The qsort function returns no value.
- 7.22.6 Integer arithmetic functions
- 7.22.6.1 The abs, labs and llabs functions
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdlib.h>
- int abs(int j);
- long int labs(long int j);
- long long int llabs(long long int j);
- Description
-2 The abs, labs, and llabs functions compute the absolute value of an integer j. If the
- result cannot be represented, the behavior is undefined.297)
- Returns
-3 The abs, labs, and llabs, functions return the absolute value.
-
-
-
-
- 297) The absolute value of the most negative number cannot be represented in two's complement.
-
-[page 355]
-
- 7.22.6.2 The div, ldiv, and lldiv functions
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdlib.h>
- div_t div(int numer, int denom);
- ldiv_t ldiv(long int numer, long int denom);
- lldiv_t lldiv(long long int numer, long long int denom);
- Description
-2 The div, ldiv, and lldiv, functions compute numer / denom and numer %
- denom in a single operation.
- Returns
-3 The div, ldiv, and lldiv functions return a structure of type div_t, ldiv_t, and
- lldiv_t, respectively, comprising both the quotient and the remainder. The structures
- shall contain (in either order) the members quot (the quotient) and rem (the remainder),
- each of which has the same type as the arguments numer and denom. If either part of
- the result cannot be represented, the behavior is undefined.
- 7.22.7 Multibyte/wide character conversion functions
-1 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 conversion state at program startup and can be returned to that 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 conversion 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.298) Changing the LC_CTYPE
- category causes the conversion state of these functions to be indeterminate.
- 7.22.7.1 The mblen function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdlib.h>
- int mblen(const char *s, size_t n);
- Description
-2 If s is not a null pointer, the mblen function determines the number of bytes contained
- in the multibyte character pointed to by s. Except that the conversion state of the
- mbtowc function is not affected, it is equivalent to
-
-
-
- 298) If the locale employs special bytes to change the shift state, these bytes do not produce separate wide
- character codes, but are grouped with an adjacent multibyte character.
-
-[page 356]
-
- mbtowc((wchar_t *)0, (const char *)0, 0);
- mbtowc((wchar_t *)0, s, n);
-3 The implementation shall behave as if no library function calls the mblen function.
- Returns
-4 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 are contained in 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 (7.22.7.2).
- 7.22.7.2 The mbtowc function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdlib.h>
- int mbtowc(wchar_t * restrict pwc,
- const char * restrict s,
- size_t n);
- Description
-2 If s is not a null pointer, the mbtowc function inspects at most n bytes beginning with
- the byte pointed to by s to determine the number of bytes needed to complete the next
- multibyte character (including any shift sequences). If the function determines that the
- next multibyte character is complete and valid, it determines the value of the
- corresponding wide character and then, if pwc is not a null pointer, stores that value in
- the object pointed to by pwc. If the corresponding wide character is the null wide
- character, the function is left in the initial conversion state.
-3 The implementation shall behave as if no library function calls the mbtowc function.
- Returns
-4 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 are contained in 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).
-5 In no case will the value returned be greater than n or the value of the MB_CUR_MAX
- macro.
-
-[page 357]
-
- 7.22.7.3 The wctomb function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdlib.h>
- int wctomb(char *s, wchar_t wc);
- Description
-2 The wctomb function determines the number of bytes needed to represent the multibyte
- character corresponding to the wide character given by wc (including any shift
- sequences), and stores the multibyte character representation in the array whose first
- element is pointed to by s (if s is not a null pointer). At most MB_CUR_MAX characters
- are stored. If wc is a null wide character, a null byte is stored, preceded by any shift
- sequence needed to restore the initial shift state, and the function is left in the initial
- conversion state.
-3 The implementation shall behave as if no library function calls the wctomb function.
- Returns
-4 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 wc does not correspond
- to a valid multibyte character, or returns the number of bytes that are contained in the
- multibyte character corresponding to the value of wc.
-5 In no case will the value returned be greater than the value of the MB_CUR_MAX macro.
- 7.22.8 Multibyte/wide string conversion functions
-1 The behavior of the multibyte string functions is affected by the LC_CTYPE category of
- the current locale.
- 7.22.8.1 The mbstowcs function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdlib.h>
- size_t mbstowcs(wchar_t * restrict pwcs,
- const char * restrict s,
- size_t n);
- Description
-2 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 wide
- characters and stores not more than n wide characters into the array pointed to by pwcs.
- No multibyte characters that follow a null character (which is converted into a null wide
- character) will be examined or converted. Each multibyte character is converted as if by
- a call to the mbtowc function, except that the conversion state of the mbtowc function is
-
-[page 358]
-
- not affected.
-3 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
-4 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 null wide character, if any.299)
- 7.22.8.2 The wcstombs function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdlib.h>
- size_t wcstombs(char * restrict s,
- const wchar_t * restrict pwcs,
- size_t n);
- Description
-2 The wcstombs function converts a sequence of wide characters from the array pointed
- to by pwcs into a sequence of corresponding 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 wide character is converted as if by a call to the wctomb
- function, except that the conversion state of the wctomb function is not affected.
-3 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
-4 If a wide character 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.299)
-
-
-
-
- 299) The array will not be null-terminated if the value returned is n.

-
- 7.23 String handling <string.h>
- 7.23.1 String function conventions
-1 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.300) The type is size_t and the macro is NULL (both described in
- 7.19). 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.
-2 Where an argument declared as size_t n specifies the length of the array for a
- function, n can have the value zero on a call to that function. Unless explicitly stated
- otherwise in the description of a particular function in this subclause, pointer arguments
- on such a call shall still have valid values, as described in 7.1.4. On such a call, a
- function that locates a character finds no occurrence, a function that compares two
- character sequences returns zero, and a function that copies characters copies zero
- characters.
-3 For all functions in this subclause, each character shall be interpreted as if it had the type
- unsigned char (and therefore every possible object representation is valid and has a
- different value).
- 7.23.2 Copying functions
- 7.23.2.1 The memcpy function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <string.h>
- void *memcpy(void * restrict s1,
- const void * restrict s2,
- size_t n);
- Description
-2 The memcpy function copies n characters from the object pointed to by s2 into the
- object pointed to by s1. If copying takes place between objects that overlap, the behavior
- is undefined.
- Returns
-3 The memcpy function returns the value of s1.

- 7.23.2.2 The memmove function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <string.h>
- void *memmove(void *s1, const void *s2, size_t n);
- Description
-2 The memmove function copies n characters from the object pointed to by s2 into the
- object pointed to by s1. Copying takes place as if the n characters from the object
- pointed to by s2 are first copied into a temporary array of n characters that does not
- overlap the objects pointed to by s1 and s2, and then the n characters from the
- temporary array are copied into the object pointed to by s1.
- Returns
-3 The memmove function returns the value of s1.
- 7.23.2.3 The strcpy function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <string.h>
- char *strcpy(char * restrict s1,
- const char * restrict s2);
- Description
-2 The strcpy function copies the string pointed to by s2 (including the terminating null
- character) into the array pointed to by s1. If copying takes place between objects that
- overlap, the behavior is undefined.
- Returns
-3 The strcpy function returns the value of s1.
- 7.23.2.4 The strncpy function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <string.h>
- char *strncpy(char * restrict s1,
- const char * restrict s2,
- size_t n);
- Description
-2 The strncpy function copies not more than n characters (characters that follow a null
- character are not copied) from the array pointed to by s2 to the array pointed to by
-
-[page 361]
-
- s1.301) If copying takes place between objects that overlap, the behavior is undefined.
-3 If the array pointed to by s2 is a string that is shorter than n characters, null characters
- are appended to the copy in the array pointed to by s1, until n characters in all have been
- written.
- Returns
-4 The strncpy function returns the value of s1.
- 7.23.3 Concatenation functions
- 7.23.3.1 The strcat function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <string.h>
- char *strcat(char * restrict s1,
- const char * restrict s2);
- Description
-2 The strcat function appends a copy of the string pointed to by s2 (including the
- terminating null character) to the end of the string pointed to by s1. The initial character
- of s2 overwrites the null character at the end of s1. If copying takes place between
- objects that overlap, the behavior is undefined.
- Returns
-3 The strcat function returns the value of s1.
- 7.23.3.2 The strncat function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <string.h>
- char *strncat(char * restrict s1,
- const char * restrict s2,
- size_t n);
- Description
-2 The strncat function appends not more than n characters (a null character and
- characters that follow it are not appended) from the array pointed to by s2 to the end of
- the string pointed to by s1. The initial character of s2 overwrites the null character at the

- Forward references: the strlen function (7.23.6.3).
- 7.23.4 Comparison functions
-1 The sign of a nonzero value returned by the comparison functions memcmp, strcmp,
- and strncmp is determined by the sign of the difference between the values of the first
- pair of characters (both interpreted as unsigned char) that differ in the objects being
- compared.

- Description
-2 The strcoll function compares the string pointed to by s1 to the string pointed to by
- s2, both interpreted as appropriate to the LC_COLLATE category of the current locale.
- Returns

- Synopsis
-1 #include <string.h>
- size_t strxfrm(char * restrict s1,
- const char * restrict s2,
- size_t n);
- Description
-2 The strxfrm function transforms the string pointed to by s2 and places the resulting
- string into the array pointed to by s1. The transformation is such that if the strcmp
- function is applied to two transformed strings, it returns a value greater than, equal to, or
-
-[page 364]
-
- less than zero, corresponding to the result of the strcoll function applied to the same
- two original strings. No more than n characters are placed into the resulting array
- pointed to by s1, including the terminating null character. If n is zero, s1 is permitted to
- be a null pointer. If copying takes place between objects that overlap, the behavior is
- undefined.
- Returns
-3 The strxfrm function returns the length of the transformed string (not including the
- terminating null character). If the value returned is n or more, the contents of the array
- pointed to by s1 are indeterminate.

- string pointed to by s. The terminating null character is considered to be part of the
- string.
-
-[page 366]
-
- Returns
-3 The strrchr function returns a pointer to the character, or a null pointer if c does not

- is not found. If s2 points to a string with zero length, the function returns s1.
- 7.23.5.8 The strtok function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <string.h>
- char *strtok(char * restrict s1,
- const char * restrict s2);
- Description
-2 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 a non-null first argument; subsequent calls in the
- sequence have a null first argument. The separator string pointed to by s2 may be
- different from call to call.
-
-[page 367]
-
-3 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.
-4 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.
-5 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.
-6 The strtok function is not required to avoid data races. The implementation shall
- behave as if no library function calls the strtok function.
- Returns
-7 The strtok function returns a pointer to the first character of a token, or a null pointer
- if there is no token.
-8 EXAMPLE
- #include <string.h>
- static char str[] = "?a???b,,,#c";
- char *t;
- t = strtok(str, "?"); // t points to the token "a"
- t = strtok(NULL, ","); // t points to the token "??b"
- t = strtok(NULL, "#,"); // t points to the token "c"
- t = strtok(NULL, "?"); // t is a null pointer

-
- 7.23.6.2 The strerror function
- Synopsis

- 7.24 Type-generic math <tgmath.h>
-1 The header <tgmath.h> includes the headers <math.h> and <complex.h> and
- defines several type-generic macros.
-2 Of the <math.h> and <complex.h> functions without an f (float) or l (long
- double) suffix, several have one or more parameters whose corresponding real type is
- double. For each such function, except modf, there is a corresponding type-generic
- macro.304) The parameters whose corresponding real type is double in the function
- synopsis are generic parameters. Use of the macro invokes a function whose
- corresponding real type and type domain are determined by the arguments for the generic
- parameters.305)
-3 Use of the macro invokes a function whose generic parameters have the corresponding
- real type determined as follows:
- -- First, if any argument for generic parameters has type long double, the type
- determined is long double.
- -- Otherwise, if any argument for generic parameters has type double or is of integer
- type, the type determined is double.
- -- Otherwise, the type determined is float.
-4 For each unsuffixed function in <math.h> for which there is a function in
- <complex.h> with the same name except for a c prefix, the corresponding type-
- generic macro (for both functions) has the same name as the function in <math.h>. The
- corresponding type-generic macro for fabs and cabs is fabs.
-
-
-
-
- 304) Like other function-like macros in Standard libraries, each type-generic macro can be suppressed to
- make available the corresponding ordinary function.
- 305) If the type of the argument is not compatible with the type of the parameter for the selected function,
- the behavior is undefined.

- sinh csinh sinh
- tanh ctanh tanh
- exp cexp exp
- log clog log
- pow cpow pow
- sqrt csqrt sqrt
- fabs cabs fabs
- If at least one argument for a generic parameter is complex, then use of the macro invokes
- a complex function; otherwise, use of the macro invokes a real function.
-5 For each unsuffixed function in <math.h> without a c-prefixed counterpart in
- <complex.h> (except modf), the corresponding type-generic macro has the same
- name as the function. These type-generic macros are:
- atan2 fma llround remainder
- cbrt fmax log10 remquo
- ceil fmin log1p rint
- copysign fmod log2 round
- erf frexp logb scalbn
- erfc hypot lrint scalbln
- exp2 ilogb lround tgamma
- expm1 ldexp nearbyint trunc
- fdim lgamma nextafter
- floor llrint nexttoward
- If all arguments for generic parameters are real, then use of the macro invokes a real
- function; otherwise, use of the macro results in undefined behavior.
-
-[page 371]
-
-6 For each unsuffixed function in <complex.h> that is not a c-prefixed counterpart to a
- function in <math.h>, the corresponding type-generic macro has the same name as the
- function. These type-generic macros are:
- carg conj creal
- cimag cproj
- Use of the macro with any real or complex argument invokes a complex function.
-7 EXAMPLE With the declarations
- #include <tgmath.h>
- int n;
- float f;
- double d;
- long double ld;
- float complex fc;
- double complex dc;
- long double complex ldc;

- which expands to an integer constant expression representing the maximum number of
- times that destructors will be called when a thread terminates.
-4 The types are
- cnd_t
- which is a complete object type that holds an identifier for a condition variable;
- thrd_t
- which is a complete object type that holds an identifier for a thread;

- which is the function pointer type int (*)(void*) that is passed to thrd_create
- to create a new thread;
- once_flag
- which is a complete object type that holds a flag for use by call_once; and
-

-
- xtime
- which is a structure type that holds a time specified in seconds and nanoseconds. The
- structure shall contain at least the following members, in any order.

- which is passed to mtx_init to create a mutex object that supports neither timeout nor
- test and return;

- which is passed to mtx_init to create a mutex object that supports recursive locking;
- mtx_timed
- which is passed to mtx_init to create a mutex object that supports timeout;
- mtx_try
- which is passed to mtx_init to create a mutex object that supports test and return;
- thrd_timeout
- which is returned by a timed wait function to indicate that the time specified in the call
- was reached without acquiring the requested resource;
- thrd_success
- which is returned by a function to indicate that the requested operation succeeded;
- thrd_busy
- which is returned by a function to indicate that the requested operation failed because a
- resource requested by a test and return function is already in use;
- thrd_error
- which is returned by a function to indicate that the requested operation failed; and
- thrd_nomem
- which is returned by a function to indicate that the requested operation failed because it
- was unable to allocate memory.

- pointed to by mtx before it returns. The cnd_timedwait function requires that the
- mutex pointed to by mtx be locked by the calling thread.
- Returns
-3 The cnd_timedwait function returns thrd_success upon success, or

-
- 7.26 Date and time <time.h>
- 7.26.1 Components of time
-1 The header <time.h> defines two macros, and declares several types and 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, which is the calendar time expressed for some specific time zone, and 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.
-2 The macros defined are NULL (described in 7.19); and
- CLOCKS_PER_SEC
- which expands to an expression with type clock_t (described below) that is the
- number per second of the value returned by the clock function.
-3 The types declared are size_t (described in 7.19);
- clock_t
- and
- time_t
- which are arithmetic types capable of representing times; and
- struct tm
- which holds the components of a calendar time, called the broken-down time.
-4 The range and precision of times representable in clock_t and time_t are
- implementation-defined. The tm 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.307)
- 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
-
-
-
- 307) The range [0, 60] for tm_sec allows for a positive leap second.
-
-[page 385]
-
- 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.
- 7.26.2 Time manipulation functions
- 7.26.2.1 The clock function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <time.h>
- clock_t clock(void);
- Description
-2 The clock function determines the processor time used.
- Returns
-3 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 CLOCKS_PER_SEC. If
- the processor time used is not available or its value cannot be represented, the function
- returns the value (clock_t)(-1).308)
- 7.26.2.2 The difftime function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <time.h>
- double difftime(time_t time1, time_t time0);
- Description
-2 The difftime function computes the difference between two calendar times: time1 -
- time0.
- Returns
-3 The difftime function returns the difference expressed in seconds as a double.
-
-
-
-
- 308) In order to measure the time spent in a program, the clock function should be called at the start of
- the program and its return value subtracted from the value returned by subsequent calls.
-
-[page 386]
-
- 7.26.2.3 The mktime function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <time.h>
- time_t mktime(struct tm *timeptr);
- Description
-2 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.309) 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
-3 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).
-4 EXAMPLE What day of the week is July 4, 2001?
- #include <stdio.h>
- #include <time.h>
- static const char *const wday[] = {
- "Sunday", "Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday",
- "Thursday", "Friday", "Saturday", "-unknown-"
- };
- struct tm time_str;
- /* ... */
-
-
-
-
- 309) Thus, a positive or zero value for tm_isdst causes the mktime function to presume initially that
- Daylight Saving Time, respectively, is or is not in effect for the specified time. A negative value
- causes it to attempt to determine whether Daylight Saving Time is in effect for the specified time.
-
-[page 387]
-
- time_str.tm_year = 2001 - 1900;
- time_str.tm_mon = 7 - 1;
- time_str.tm_mday = 4;
- time_str.tm_hour = 0;
- time_str.tm_min = 0;
- time_str.tm_sec = 1;
- time_str.tm_isdst = -1;
- if (mktime(&time_str) == (time_t)(-1))
- time_str.tm_wday = 7;
- printf("%s\n", wday[time_str.tm_wday]);
-
- 7.26.2.4 The time function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <time.h>
- time_t time(time_t *timer);
- Description
-2 The time function determines the current calendar time. The encoding of the value is
- unspecified.
- Returns
-3 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.
- 7.26.3 Time conversion functions
-1 Except for the strftime function, these functions each return a pointer to one of two
- types of static objects: a broken-down time structure or an array of char. Execution of
- any of the functions that return a pointer to one of these object types may overwrite the
- information in any object of the same type pointed to by the value returned from any
- previous call to any of them and the functions are not required to avoid data races. The
- implementation shall behave as if no other library functions call these functions.
- 7.26.3.1 The asctime function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <time.h>
- char *asctime(const struct tm *timeptr);
- Description
-2 The asctime function converts the broken-down time in the structure pointed to by
- timeptr into a string in the form
- Sun Sep 16 01:03:52 1973\n\0
-
-[page 388]
-
- using the equivalent of the following algorithm.
- char *asctime(const struct tm *timeptr)
- {
- static const char wday_name[7][3] = {
- "Sun", "Mon", "Tue", "Wed", "Thu", "Fri", "Sat"
- };
- static const char mon_name[12][3] = {
- "Jan", "Feb", "Mar", "Apr", "May", "Jun",
- "Jul", "Aug", "Sep", "Oct", "Nov", "Dec"
- };
- static char result[26];
- sprintf(result, "%.3s %.3s%3d %.2d:%.2d:%.2d %d\n",
- wday_name[timeptr->tm_wday],
- mon_name[timeptr->tm_mon],
- timeptr->tm_mday, timeptr->tm_hour,
- timeptr->tm_min, timeptr->tm_sec,
- 1900 + timeptr->tm_year);
- return result;
- }
-3 If any of the fields of the broken-down time contain values that are outside their normal
- ranges,310) the behavior of the asctime function is undefined. Likewise, if the
- calculated year exceeds four digits or is less than the year 1000, the behavior is
- undefined.
- Returns
-4 The asctime function returns a pointer to the string.
- 7.26.3.2 The ctime function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <time.h>
- char *ctime(const time_t *timer);
- Description
-2 The ctime function converts the calendar time pointed to by timer to local time in the
- form of a string. It is equivalent to
- asctime(localtime(timer))
-
-
-
- 310) See 7.26.1.
-
-[page 389]
-
- Returns
-3 The ctime function returns the pointer returned by the asctime function with that
- broken-down time as argument.
- Forward references: the localtime function (7.26.3.4).
- 7.26.3.3 The gmtime function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <time.h>
- struct tm *gmtime(const time_t *timer);
- Description
-2 The gmtime function converts the calendar time pointed to by timer into a broken-
- down time, expressed as UTC.
- Returns
-3 The gmtime function returns a pointer to the broken-down time, or a null pointer if the
- specified time cannot be converted to UTC.
- 7.26.3.4 The localtime function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <time.h>
- struct tm *localtime(const time_t *timer);
- Description
-2 The localtime function converts the calendar time pointed to by timer into a
- broken-down time, expressed as local time.
- Returns
-3 The localtime function returns a pointer to the broken-down time, or a null pointer if
- the specified time cannot be converted to local time.
- 7.26.3.5 The strftime function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <time.h>
- size_t strftime(char * restrict s,
- size_t maxsize,
- const char * restrict format,
- const struct tm * restrict timeptr);
-
-[page 390]
-
- Description
-2 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 specifiers and ordinary multibyte characters. A conversion specifier
- consists of a % character, possibly followed by an E or O modifier character (described
- below), followed by a character that determines the behavior of the conversion specifier.
- 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.
-3 Each conversion specifier is replaced by appropriate characters as described in the
- following list. The appropriate characters are determined using the LC_TIME category
- of the current locale and by the values of zero or more members of the broken-down time
- structure pointed to by timeptr, as specified in brackets in the description. If any of

-5 %g, %G, and %V give values according to the ISO 8601 week-based year. In this system,
- weeks begin on a Monday and week 1 of the year is the week that includes January 4th,
- which is also the week that includes the first Thursday of the year, and is also the first

- Returns
-8 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.

- 7.27 Unicode utilities <uchar.h>
-1 The header <uchar.h> declares types and functions for manipulating Unicode
- characters.
-2 The types declared are mbstate_t (described in 7.29.1) and size_t (described in
- 7.19);
- char16_t
- which is an unsigned integer type used for 16-bit characters and is the same type as
- uint_least16_t (described in 7.20.1.2); and
- char32_t
- which is an unsigned integer type used for 32-bit characters and is the same type as
- uint_least32_t (also described in 7.20.1.2).
- 7.27.1 Restartable multibyte/wide character conversion functions
-1 These functions have a parameter, ps, of type pointer to mbstate_t that points to an
- object that can completely describe the current conversion state of the associated
- multibyte character sequence, which the functions alter as necessary. If ps is a null
- pointer, each function uses its own internal mbstate_t object instead, which is
- initialized at program startup to the initial conversion state; the functions are not required
- to avoid data races in this case. The implementation behaves as if no library function
- calls these functions with a null pointer for ps.
- 7.27.1.1 The mbrtoc16 function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <uchar.h>
- size_t mbrtoc16(char16_t * restrict pc16,
- const char * restrict s, size_t n,
- mbstate_t * restrict ps);
- Description
-2 If s is a null pointer, the mbrtoc16 function is equivalent to the call:
- mbrtoc16(NULL, "", 1, ps)
- In this case, the values of the parameters pc16 and n are ignored.
-3 If s is not a null pointer, the mbrtoc16 function inspects at most n bytes beginning with
- the byte pointed to by s to determine the number of bytes needed to complete the next
- multibyte character (including any shift sequences). If the function determines that the
- next multibyte character is complete and valid, it determines the values of the
- corresponding wide characters and then, if pc16 is not a null pointer, stores the value of
- the first (or only) such character in the object pointed to by pc16. Subsequent calls will
-
-[page 395]
-
- store successive wide characters without consuming any additional input until all the
- characters have been stored. If the corresponding wide character is the null wide
- character, the resulting state described is the initial conversion state.
- Returns
-4 The mbrtoc16 function returns the first of the following that applies (given the current
- conversion state):
- 0 if the next n or fewer bytes complete the multibyte character that
- corresponds to the null wide character (which is the value stored).
- between 1 and n inclusive if the next n or fewer bytes complete a valid multibyte
- character (which is the value stored); the value returned is the number
- of bytes that complete the multibyte character.
- (size_t)(-3) if the next character resulting from a previous call has been stored (no
- bytes from the input have been consumed by this call).
- (size_t)(-2) if the next n bytes contribute to an incomplete (but potentially valid)
- multibyte character, and all n bytes have been processed (no value is
- stored).311)
- (size_t)(-1) if an encoding error occurs, in which case the next n or fewer bytes
- do not contribute to a complete and valid multibyte character (no

- Description
-2 If s is a null pointer, the c16rtomb function is equivalent to the call
- c16rtomb(buf, L'\0', ps)
- where buf is an internal buffer.
-3 If s is not a null pointer, the c16rtomb function determines the number of bytes needed

-
- array whose first element is pointed to by s. At most MB_CUR_MAX bytes are stored. If
- c16 is a null wide character, a null byte is stored, preceded by any shift sequence needed
- to restore the initial shift state; the resulting state described is the initial conversion state.
- Returns
-4 The c16rtomb function returns the number of bytes stored in the array object (including
- any shift sequences). When c16 is not a valid wide character, an encoding error occurs:
- the function stores the value of the macro EILSEQ in errno and returns

- Description
-2 If s is a null pointer, the mbrtoc32 function is equivalent to the call:
- mbrtoc32(NULL, "", 1, ps)
- In this case, the values of the parameters pc32 and n are ignored.
-3 If s is not a null pointer, the mbrtoc32 function inspects at most n bytes beginning with
- the byte pointed to by s to determine the number of bytes needed to complete the next
- multibyte character (including any shift sequences). If the function determines that the
- next multibyte character is complete and valid, it determines the values of the
- corresponding wide characters and then, if pc32 is not a null pointer, stores the value of
- the first (or only) such character in the object pointed to by pc32. Subsequent calls will
- store successive wide characters without consuming any additional input until all the
- characters have been stored. If the corresponding wide character is the null wide
- character, the resulting state described is the initial conversion state.
- Returns
-4 The mbrtoc32 function returns the first of the following that applies (given the current
- conversion state):
- 0 if the next n or fewer bytes complete the multibyte character that
- corresponds to the null wide character (which is the value stored).
- between 1 and n inclusive if the next n or fewer bytes complete a valid multibyte
- character (which is the value stored); the value returned is the number
- of bytes that complete the multibyte character.
-
-[page 397]
-
- (size_t)(-3) if the next character resulting from a previous call has been stored (no
- bytes from the input have been consumed by this call).
- (size_t)(-2) if the next n bytes contribute to an incomplete (but potentially valid)
- multibyte character, and all n bytes have been processed (no value is
- stored).312)
- (size_t)(-1) if an encoding error occurs, in which case the next n or fewer bytes
- do not contribute to a complete and valid multibyte character (no

- 7.28 Extended multibyte and wide character utilities <wchar.h>
- 7.28.1 Introduction
-1 The header <wchar.h> defines four macros, and declares four data types, one tag, and
- many functions.313)
-2 The types declared are wchar_t and size_t (both described in 7.19);
- mbstate_t
- which is a complete object type other than an array type that can hold the conversion state
- information necessary to convert between sequences of multibyte characters and wide
- characters;
- wint_t
- which is an integer type unchanged by default argument promotions that can hold any
- value corresponding to members of the extended character set, as well as at least one
- value that does not correspond to any member of the extended character set (see WEOF
- below);314) and
- struct tm
- which is declared as an incomplete structure type (the contents are described in 7.26.1).
-3 The macros defined are NULL (described in 7.19); WCHAR_MIN and WCHAR_MAX
- (described in 7.20.3); and
- WEOF
- which expands to a constant expression of type wint_t whose value does not
- correspond to any member of the extended character set.315) It is accepted (and returned)
- by several functions in this subclause to indicate end-of-file, that is, no more input from a
- stream. It is also used as a wide character value that does not correspond to any member
- of the extended character set.
-4 The functions declared are grouped as follows:
- -- Functions that perform input and output of wide characters, or multibyte characters,
- or both;
- -- Functions that provide wide string numeric conversion;
- -- Functions that perform general wide string manipulation;
-
-
- 313) See ''future library directions'' (7.30.12).
- 314) wchar_t and wint_t can be the same integer type.
- 315) The value of the macro WEOF may differ from that of EOF and need not be negative.
-
-[page 399]
-
- -- Functions for wide string date and time conversion; and
- -- Functions that provide extended capabilities for conversion between multibyte and
- wide character sequences.
-5 Unless explicitly stated otherwise, if the execution of a function described in this
- subclause causes copying to take place between objects that overlap, the behavior is
- undefined.
- 7.28.2 Formatted wide character input/output functions
-1 The formatted wide character input/output functions shall behave as if there is a sequence
- point after the actions associated with each specifier.316)
- 7.28.2.1 The fwprintf function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdio.h>
- #include <wchar.h>
- int fwprintf(FILE * restrict stream,
- const wchar_t * restrict format, ...);
- Description
-2 The fwprintf function writes output to the stream pointed to by stream, under
- control of the wide 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 fwprintf function returns
- when the end of the format string is encountered.
-3 The format is composed of zero or more directives: ordinary wide characters (not %),
- which are copied unchanged to the output stream; and conversion specifications, each of
- which results in fetching zero or more subsequent arguments, converting them, if
- applicable, according to the corresponding conversion specifier, and then writing the
- result to the output stream.
-4 Each conversion specification is introduced by the wide character %. After the %, the
- following appear in sequence:
- -- Zero or more flags (in any order) that modify the meaning of the conversion
- specification.
- -- An optional minimum field width. If the converted value has fewer wide characters
- than the field width, it is padded with spaces (by default) on the left (or right, if the
-
-
- 316) The fwprintf functions perform writes to memory for the %n specifier.
-
-[page 400]
-
- left adjustment flag, described later, has been given) to the field width. The field
- width takes the form of an asterisk * (described later) or a nonnegative decimal
- integer.317)
- -- 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
- wide character for a, A, e, E, f, and F conversions, the maximum number of
- significant digits for the g and G conversions, or the maximum number of wide
- characters to be written for s conversions. The precision takes the form of a period
- (.) followed either by an asterisk * (described later) or by an optional decimal
- integer; if only the period is specified, the precision is taken as zero. If a precision
- appears with any other conversion specifier, the behavior is undefined.
- -- An optional length modifier that specifies the size of the argument.
- -- A conversion specifier wide character that specifies the type of conversion to be
- applied.
-5 As noted above, a field width, or precision, or both, may be indicated by an asterisk. 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 the
- precision were omitted.
-6 The flag wide characters and their meanings are:
- - The result of the conversion is left-justified within the field. (It is right-justified if
- this flag is not specified.)
- + The result of a signed conversion always begins with a plus or minus sign. (It
- begins with a sign only when a negative value is converted if this flag is not
- specified.)318)
- space If the first wide character of a signed conversion is not a sign, or if a signed
- conversion results in no wide characters, a space is prefixed to the result. If the
- space and + flags both appear, the space flag is ignored.
- # The result is converted to an ''alternative form''. For o conversion, it increases
- the precision, if and only if necessary, to force the first digit of the result to be a
- zero (if the value and precision are both 0, a single 0 is printed). For x (or X)
- conversion, a nonzero result has 0x (or 0X) prefixed to it. For a, A, e, E, f, F, g,
-
-
- 317) Note that 0 is taken as a flag, not as the beginning of a field width.
- 318) The results of all floating conversions of a negative zero, and of negative values that round to zero,
- include a minus sign.
-
-[page 401]
-
- and G conversions, the result of converting a floating-point number always
- contains a decimal-point wide character, even if no digits follow it. (Normally, a
- decimal-point wide character appears in the result of these conversions only if a
- digit follows it.) For g and G conversions, trailing zeros are not removed from the
- result. For other conversions, the behavior is undefined.
- 0 For d, i, o, u, x, X, a, A, e, E, f, F, g, and G conversions, leading zeros
- (following any indication of sign or base) are used to pad to the field width rather
- than performing space padding, except when converting an infinity or NaN. If the
- 0 and - flags both appear, the 0 flag is ignored. For d, i, o, u, x, and X
- conversions, if a precision is specified, the 0 flag is ignored. For other
- conversions, the behavior is undefined.
-7 The length modifiers and their meanings are:
- hh Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, or X conversion specifier applies to a
- signed char or unsigned char argument (the argument will have
- been promoted according to the integer promotions, but its value shall be
- converted to signed char or unsigned char before printing); or that
- a following n conversion specifier applies to a pointer to a signed char
- argument.
- h Specifies 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 integer promotions, but its value shall
- be converted to short int or unsigned short int before printing);
- or that a following n conversion specifier applies to a pointer to a short
- int argument.
- l (ell) Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, or X conversion specifier applies to a
- long int or unsigned long int argument; that a following n
- conversion specifier applies to a pointer to a long int argument; that a
- following c conversion specifier applies to a wint_t argument; that a
- following s conversion specifier applies to a pointer to a wchar_t
- argument; or has no effect on a following a, A, e, E, f, F, g, or G conversion
- specifier.
- ll (ell-ell) Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, or X conversion specifier applies to a
- long long int or unsigned long long int argument; or that a
- following n conversion specifier applies to a pointer to a long long int
- argument.
- j Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, or X conversion specifier applies to
- an intmax_t or uintmax_t argument; or that a following n conversion
- specifier applies to a pointer to an intmax_t argument.
-
-[page 402]
-
- z Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, or X conversion specifier applies to a
- size_t or the corresponding signed integer type argument; or that a
- following n conversion specifier applies to a pointer to a signed integer type
- corresponding to size_t argument.
- t Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, or X conversion specifier applies to a
- ptrdiff_t or the corresponding unsigned integer type argument; or that a
- following n conversion specifier applies to a pointer to a ptrdiff_t
- argument.
- L Specifies that a following a, A, e, E, f, F, g, or G conversion specifier
- applies to a long double argument.
- If a length modifier appears with any conversion specifier other than as specified above,
- the behavior is undefined.
-8 The conversion specifiers and their meanings are:
- d,i The int argument is converted to signed decimal in the style [-]dddd. The
- precision specifies the minimum number of digits to appear; if the value
- being converted can be represented in fewer digits, it is expanded with
- leading zeros. The default precision is 1. The result of converting a zero
- value with a precision of zero is no wide characters.
- o,u,x,X The unsigned int argument is converted to unsigned octal (o), unsigned
- decimal (u), or unsigned hexadecimal notation (x or X) in the style dddd; 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 is expanded
- with leading zeros. The default precision is 1. The result of converting a
- zero value with a precision of zero is no wide characters.
- f,F A double argument representing a floating-point number is converted to
- decimal notation in the style [-]ddd.ddd, where the number of digits after
- the decimal-point wide character is equal to the precision specification. If the
- precision is missing, it is taken as 6; if the precision is zero and the # flag is
- not specified, no decimal-point wide character appears. If a decimal-point
- wide character appears, at least one digit appears before it. The value is
- rounded to the appropriate number of digits.
- A double argument representing an infinity is converted in one of the styles
- [-]inf or [-]infinity -- which style is implementation-defined. A
- double argument representing a NaN is converted in one of the styles
- [-]nan or [-]nan(n-wchar-sequence) -- which style, and the meaning of
- any n-wchar-sequence, is implementation-defined. The F conversion
- specifier produces INF, INFINITY, or NAN instead of inf, infinity, or
-
-[page 403]
-
- nan, respectively.319)
-e,E A double argument representing a floating-point number is converted in the
- style [-]d.ddd e(+-)dd, where there is one digit (which is nonzero if the
- argument is nonzero) before the decimal-point wide character 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 and the # flag is not specified, no decimal-point
- wide character appears. The value is rounded to the appropriate number of
- digits. The E conversion specifier produces a number with E instead of e
- introducing the exponent. The exponent always contains at least two digits,
- and only as many more digits as necessary to represent the exponent. If the
- value is zero, the exponent is zero.
- A double argument representing an infinity or NaN is converted in the style
- of an f or F conversion specifier.
-g,G A double argument representing a floating-point number is converted in
- style f or e (or in style F or E in the case of a G conversion specifier),
- depending on the value converted and the precision. Let P equal the
- precision if nonzero, 6 if the precision is omitted, or 1 if the precision is zero.
- Then, if a conversion with style E would have an exponent of X:
- -- if P > X >= -4, the conversion is with style f (or F) and precision
- P - (X + 1).
- -- otherwise, the conversion is with style e (or E) and precision P - 1.
- Finally, unless the # flag is used, any trailing zeros are removed from the
- fractional portion of the result and the decimal-point wide character is
- removed if there is no fractional portion remaining.
- A double argument representing an infinity or NaN is converted in the style
- of an f or F conversion specifier.
-a,A A double argument representing a floating-point number is converted in the
- style [-]0xh.hhhh p(+-)d, where there is one hexadecimal digit (which is
- nonzero if the argument is a normalized floating-point number and is
- otherwise unspecified) before the decimal-point wide character320) and the
- number of hexadecimal digits after it is equal to the precision; if the precision
- is missing and FLT_RADIX is a power of 2, then the precision is sufficient
-
-
-319) When applied to infinite and NaN values, the -, +, and space flag wide characters have their usual
- meaning; the # and 0 flag wide characters have no effect.
-320) Binary implementations can choose the hexadecimal digit to the left of the decimal-point wide
- character so that subsequent digits align to nibble (4-bit) boundaries.
-
-[page 404]
-
- for an exact representation of the value; if the precision is missing and
- FLT_RADIX is not a power of 2, then the precision is sufficient to
- distinguish321) values of type double, except that trailing zeros may be
- omitted; if the precision is zero and the # flag is not specified, no decimal-
- point wide character appears. The letters abcdef are used for a conversion
- and the letters ABCDEF for A conversion. The A conversion specifier
- produces a number with X and P instead of x and p. The exponent always
- contains at least one digit, and only as many more digits as necessary to
- represent the decimal exponent of 2. If the value is zero, the exponent is
- zero.
- A double argument representing an infinity or NaN is converted in the style
- of an f or F conversion specifier.
-c If no l length modifier is present, the int argument is converted to a wide
- character as if by calling btowc and the resulting wide character is written.
- If an l length modifier is present, the wint_t argument is converted to
- wchar_t and written.
-s If no l length modifier is present, the argument shall be a pointer to the initial
- element of a character array containing a multibyte character sequence
- beginning in the initial shift state. Characters from the array are converted as
- if by repeated calls to the mbrtowc function, with the conversion state
- described by an mbstate_t object initialized to zero before the first
- multibyte character is converted, and written up to (but not including) the
- terminating null wide character. If the precision is specified, no more than
- that many wide characters are written. If the precision is not specified or is
- greater than the size of the converted array, the converted array shall contain a
- null wide character.
- If an l length modifier is present, the argument shall be a pointer to the initial
- element of an array of wchar_t type. Wide characters from the array are
- written up to (but not including) a terminating null wide character. If the
- precision is specified, no more than that many wide characters are written. If
- the precision is not specified or is greater than the size of the array, the array
- shall contain a null wide character.
-p The argument shall be a pointer to void. The value of the pointer is
- converted to a sequence of printing wide characters, in an implementation-
-
-321) The precision p is sufficient to distinguish values of the source type if 16 p-1 > b n where b is
- FLT_RADIX and n is the number of base-b digits in the significand of the source type. A smaller p
- might suffice depending on the implementation's scheme for determining the digit to the left of the
- decimal-point wide character.
-
-[page 405]
-
- defined manner.
- n The argument shall be a pointer to signed integer into which is written the
- number of wide characters written to the output stream so far by this call to
- fwprintf. No argument is converted, but one is consumed. If the
- conversion specification includes any flags, a field width, or a precision, the
- behavior is undefined.
- % A % wide character is written. No argument is converted. The complete
- conversion specification shall be %%.
-9 If a conversion specification is invalid, the behavior is undefined.322) If any argument is
- not the correct type for the corresponding conversion specification, the behavior is
- undefined.
-10 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.
-11 For a and A conversions, if FLT_RADIX is a power of 2, the value is correctly rounded
- to a hexadecimal floating number with the given precision.
- Recommended practice
-12 For a and A conversions, if FLT_RADIX is not a power of 2 and the result is not exactly
- representable in the given precision, the result should be one of the two adjacent numbers
- in hexadecimal floating style with the given precision, with the extra stipulation that the
- error should have a correct sign for the current rounding direction.
-13 For e, E, f, F, g, and G conversions, if the number of significant decimal digits is at most
- DECIMAL_DIG, then the result should be correctly rounded.323) If the number of
- significant decimal digits is more than DECIMAL_DIG but the source value is exactly
- representable with DECIMAL_DIG digits, then the result should be an exact
- representation with trailing zeros. Otherwise, the source value is bounded by two
- adjacent decimal strings L < U, both having DECIMAL_DIG significant digits; the value
- of the resultant decimal string D should satisfy L <= D <= U, with the extra stipulation that
- the error should have a correct sign for the current rounding direction.
- Returns
-14 The fwprintf function returns the number of wide characters transmitted, or a negative
- value if an output or encoding error occurred.
-
- 322) See ''future library directions'' (7.30.12).
- 323) For binary-to-decimal conversion, the result format's values are the numbers representable with the
- given format specifier. The number of significant digits is determined by the format specifier, and in
- the case of fixed-point conversion by the source value as well.
-
-[page 406]
-
- Environmental limits
-15 The number of wide characters that can be produced by any single conversion shall be at
- least 4095.

- 7.28.2.2 The fwscanf function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdio.h>
- #include <wchar.h>
- int fwscanf(FILE * restrict stream,
- const wchar_t * restrict format, ...);
- Description
-2 The fwscanf function reads input from the stream pointed to by stream, under
- control of the wide 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.
-3 The format is composed of zero or more directives: one or more white-space wide
- characters, an ordinary wide character (neither % nor a white-space wide character), or a
- conversion specification. Each conversion specification is introduced by the wide
- character %. After the %, the following appear in sequence:
- -- An optional assignment-suppressing wide character *.
- -- An optional decimal integer greater than zero that specifies the maximum field width
- (in wide characters).
-
-[page 407]
-
- -- An optional length modifier that specifies the size of the receiving object.
- -- A conversion specifier wide character that specifies the type of conversion to be
- applied.
-4 The fwscanf function executes each directive of the format in turn. When all directives
- have been executed, or if a directive fails (as detailed below), the function returns.
- Failures are described as input failures (due to the occurrence of an encoding error or the
- unavailability of input characters), or matching failures (due to inappropriate input).
-5 A directive composed of white-space wide character(s) is executed by reading input up to
- the first non-white-space wide character (which remains unread), or until no more wide
- characters can be read.
-6 A directive that is an ordinary wide character is executed by reading the next wide
- character of the stream. If that wide character differs from the directive, the directive
- fails and the differing and subsequent wide characters remain unread. Similarly, if end-
- of-file, an encoding error, or a read error prevents a wide character from being read, the
- directive fails.
-7 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:
-8 Input white-space wide characters (as specified by the iswspace function) are skipped,
- unless the specification includes a [, c, or n specifier.324)
-9 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 wide characters which does not
- exceed any specified field width and which is, or is a prefix of, a matching input
- sequence.325) The first wide 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 end-of-file, an encoding error, or a read error prevented input
- from the stream, in which case it is an input failure.
-10 Except in the case of a % specifier, the input item (or, in the case of a %n directive, the
- count of input wide 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
-
-
- 324) These white-space wide characters are not counted against a specified field width.
- 325) fwscanf pushes back at most one input wide character onto the input stream. Therefore, some
- sequences that are acceptable to wcstod, wcstol, etc., are unacceptable to fwscanf.
-

-
- object does not have an appropriate type, or if the result of the conversion cannot be
- represented in the object, the behavior is undefined.
-11 The length modifiers and their meanings are:
- hh Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, X, or n conversion specifier applies
- to an argument with type pointer to signed char or unsigned char.
- h Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, X, or n conversion specifier applies
- to an argument with type pointer to short int or unsigned short
- int.
- l (ell) Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, X, or n conversion specifier applies

-12 The conversion specifiers and their meanings are:
- d Matches an optionally signed decimal integer, whose format is the same as
- expected for the subject sequence of the wcstol function with the value 10
- for the base argument. The corresponding argument shall be a pointer to
- signed integer.
- i Matches an optionally signed integer, whose format is the same as expected
- for the subject sequence of the wcstol function with the value 0 for the
- base argument. The corresponding argument shall be a pointer to signed
-
-[page 409]
-
- integer.
-o Matches an optionally signed octal integer, whose format is the same as
- expected for the subject sequence of the wcstoul 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 wcstoul 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 wcstoul function with the value
- 16 for the base argument. The corresponding argument shall be a pointer to
- unsigned integer.
-a,e,f,g Matches an optionally signed floating-point number, infinity, or NaN, whose
- format is the same as expected for the subject sequence of the wcstod
- function. The corresponding argument shall be a pointer to floating.
-c Matches a sequence of wide characters of exactly the number specified by the
- field width (1 if no field width is present in the directive).
- If no l length modifier is present, characters from the input field are
- converted as if by repeated calls to the wcrtomb function, with the
- conversion state described by an mbstate_t object initialized to zero
- before the first wide character is converted. The corresponding argument
- shall be a pointer to the initial element of a character array large enough to
- accept the sequence. No null character is added.
- If an l length modifier is present, the corresponding argument shall be a
- pointer to the initial element of an array of wchar_t large enough to accept
- the sequence. No null wide character is added.
-s Matches a sequence of non-white-space wide characters.
- If no l length modifier is present, characters from the input field are
- converted as if by repeated calls to the wcrtomb function, with the
- conversion state described by an mbstate_t object initialized to zero
- before the first wide character is converted. The corresponding argument
- shall be a pointer to the initial element of a character array large enough to
- accept the sequence and a terminating null character, which will be added
- automatically.
- If an l length modifier is present, the corresponding argument shall be a
- pointer to the initial element of an array of wchar_t large enough to accept
-
-[page 410]
-
- the sequence and the terminating null wide character, which will be added
- automatically.
-[ Matches a nonempty sequence of wide characters from a set of expected
- characters (the scanset).
- If no l length modifier is present, characters from the input field are
- converted as if by repeated calls to the wcrtomb function, with the
- conversion state described by an mbstate_t object initialized to zero
- before the first wide character is converted. The corresponding argument
- shall be a pointer to the initial element of a character array large enough to
- accept the sequence and a terminating null character, which will be added
- automatically.
- If an l length modifier is present, the corresponding argument shall be a
- pointer to the initial element of an array of wchar_t large enough to accept
- the sequence and the terminating null wide character, which will be added
- automatically.
- The conversion specifier includes all subsequent wide characters in the
- format string, up to and including the matching right bracket (]). The wide
- characters between the brackets (the scanlist) compose the scanset, unless the
- wide character after the left bracket is a circumflex (^), in which case the
- scanset contains all wide characters that do not appear in the scanlist between
- the circumflex and the right bracket. If the conversion specifier begins with
- [] or [^], the right bracket wide character is in the scanlist and the next
- following right bracket wide character is the matching right bracket that ends
- the specification; otherwise the first following right bracket wide character is
- the one that ends the specification. If a - wide character is in the scanlist and
- is not the first, nor the second where the first wide character is a ^, nor the
- last character, the behavior is implementation-defined.
-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 fwprintf function. The corresponding argument shall be a pointer to a
- pointer to void. The input item is converted to a pointer value in an
- implementation-defined manner. If the input item is a value converted earlier
- during the same program execution, the pointer that results shall compare
- equal to that value; otherwise the behavior of the %p conversion is undefined.
-n No input is consumed. The corresponding argument shall be a pointer to
- signed integer into which is to be written the number of wide characters read
- from the input stream so far by this call to the fwscanf function. Execution
- of a %n directive does not increment the assignment count returned at the
- completion of execution of the fwscanf function. No argument is
-
-[page 411]
-
- converted, but one is consumed. If the conversion specification includes an
- assignment-suppressing wide character or a field width, the behavior is
- undefined.
- % Matches a single % wide character; no conversion or assignment occurs. The
- complete conversion specification shall be %%.
-13 If a conversion specification is invalid, the behavior is undefined.326)
-14 The conversion specifiers A, E, F, G, and X are also valid and behave the same as,
- respectively, a, e, f, g, and x.
-15 Trailing white space (including new-line wide 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
-16 The fwscanf function returns the value of the macro EOF if an input failure occurs
- before the first conversion (if any) has completed. Otherwise, the 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.
-17 EXAMPLE 1 The call:
- #include <stdio.h>
- #include <wchar.h>
- /* ... */
- int n, i; float x; wchar_t name[50];
- n = fwscanf(stdin, L"%d%f%ls", &i, &x, name);
- with the input line:
- 25 54.32E-1 thompson
- will assign to n the value 3, to i the value 25, to x the value 5.432, and to name the sequence
- thompson\0.

-18 EXAMPLE 2 The call:
- #include <stdio.h>
- #include <wchar.h>

- fwscanf(stdin, L"%2d%f%*d %lf", &i, &x, &y);
- with input:
- 56789 0123 56a72
- will assign to i the value 56 and to x the value 789.0, will skip past 0123, and will assign to y the value
- 56.0. The next wide character read from the input stream will be a.

- const wchar_t * restrict format, ...);
- Description
-2 The swprintf function is equivalent to fwprintf, except that the argument s

- rather than written to a stream. No more than n wide characters are written, including a
- terminating null wide character, which is always added (unless n is zero).

- function.
- Returns
-3 The swscanf function returns the value of the macro EOF if an input failure occurs
- before the first conversion (if any) has completed. Otherwise, the swscanf 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.

- 7.28.3 Wide character input/output functions
- 7.28.3.1 The fgetwc function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdio.h>
- #include <wchar.h>
- wint_t fgetwc(FILE *stream);
- Description
-2 If the end-of-file indicator for the input stream pointed to by stream is not set and a
- next wide character is present, the fgetwc function obtains that wide character as a
- wchar_t converted to a wint_t and advances the associated file position indicator for
- the stream (if defined).
- Returns
-3 If the end-of-file indicator for the stream is set, or if the stream is at end-of-file, the end-
- of-file indicator for the stream is set and the fgetwc function returns WEOF. Otherwise,
- the fgetwc function returns the next wide character from the input stream pointed to by
- stream. If a read error occurs, the error indicator for the stream is set and the fgetwc
- function returns WEOF. If an encoding error occurs (including too few bytes), the value of
- the macro EILSEQ is stored in errno and the fgetwc function returns WEOF.328)
- 7.28.3.2 The fgetws function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdio.h>
- #include <wchar.h>
- wchar_t *fgetws(wchar_t * restrict s,
- int n, FILE * restrict stream);
- Description
-2 The fgetws function reads at most one less than the number of wide characters
- specified by n from the stream pointed to by stream into the array pointed to by s. No
-
-
- 328) An end-of-file and a read error can be distinguished by use of the feof and ferror functions.
- Also, errno will be set to EILSEQ by input/output functions only if an encoding error occurs.
-
-[page 418]
-
- additional wide characters are read after a new-line wide character (which is retained) or
- after end-of-file. A null wide character is written immediately after the last wide
- character read into the array.
- Returns
-3 The fgetws 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. If a read or encoding error occurs during the operation, the array
- contents are indeterminate and a null pointer is returned.
- 7.28.3.3 The fputwc function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdio.h>
- #include <wchar.h>

- Description
-2 The fputwc function writes the wide character specified by c to the output stream
- pointed to by stream, at the position indicated by the associated file position indicator
- for the stream (if defined), and advances the indicator appropriately. If the file cannot
- support positioning requests, or if the stream was opened with append mode, the
- character is appended to the output stream.
- Returns
-3 The fputwc function returns the wide character written. If a write error occurs, the
- error indicator for the stream is set and fputwc returns WEOF. If an encoding error
- occurs, the value of the macro EILSEQ is stored in errno and fputwc returns WEOF.

-
- 7.28.3.5 The fwide function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdio.h>
- #include <wchar.h>
- int fwide(FILE *stream, int mode);
- Description
-2 The fwide function determines the orientation of the stream pointed to by stream. If
- mode is greater than zero, the function first attempts to make the stream wide oriented. If
- mode is less than zero, the function first attempts to make the stream byte oriented.329)
- Otherwise, mode is zero and the function does not alter the orientation of the stream.
- Returns
-3 The fwide function returns a value greater than zero if, after the call, the stream has
- wide orientation, a value less than zero if the stream has byte orientation, or zero if the
- stream has no orientation.
- 7.28.3.6 The getwc function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdio.h>
- #include <wchar.h>
- wint_t getwc(FILE *stream);
- Description
-2 The getwc function is equivalent to fgetwc, except that if it is implemented as a
- macro, it may evaluate stream more than once, so the argument should never be an
- expression with side effects.
- Returns
-3 The getwc function returns the next wide character from the input stream pointed to by
- stream, or WEOF.
- 7.28.3.7 The getwchar function
- Synopsis

- Description
-2 The getwchar function is equivalent to getwc with the argument stdin.
- Returns
-3 The getwchar function returns the next wide character from the input stream pointed to
- by stdin, or WEOF.
- 7.28.3.8 The putwc function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdio.h>
- #include <wchar.h>
- wint_t putwc(wchar_t c, FILE *stream);
- Description
-2 The putwc function is equivalent to fputwc, except that if it is implemented as a
- macro, it may evaluate stream more than once, so that argument should never be an
- expression with side effects.
- Returns
-3 The putwc function returns the wide character written, or WEOF.
- 7.28.3.9 The putwchar function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <wchar.h>
- wint_t putwchar(wchar_t c);
- Description
-2 The putwchar function is equivalent to putwc with the second argument stdout.
- Returns
-3 The putwchar function returns the character written, or WEOF.
- 7.28.3.10 The ungetwc function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdio.h>
- #include <wchar.h>
- wint_t ungetwc(wint_t c, FILE *stream);
- Description
-2 The ungetwc function pushes the wide character specified by c back onto the input
- stream pointed to by stream. Pushed-back wide characters will be returned by
- subsequent reads on that stream in the reverse order of their pushing. A successful
-
-[page 421]
-
- intervening call (with the stream pointed to by stream) to a file positioning function
- (fseek, fsetpos, or rewind) discards any pushed-back wide characters for the
- stream. The external storage corresponding to the stream is unchanged.
-3 One wide character of pushback is guaranteed, even if the call to the ungetwc function
- follows just after a call to a formatted wide character input function fwscanf,
- vfwscanf, vwscanf, or wscanf. If the ungetwc 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.
-4 If the value of c equals that of the macro WEOF, the operation fails and the input stream is
- unchanged.
-5 A successful call to the ungetwc 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 wide characters is the same as it was before the wide characters were pushed
- back. For a text or binary stream, the value of its file position indicator after a successful
- call to the ungetwc function is unspecified until all pushed-back wide characters are
- read or discarded.
- Returns
-6 The ungetwc function returns the wide character pushed back, or WEOF if the operation
- fails.
- 7.28.4 General wide string utilities
-1 The header <wchar.h> declares a number of functions useful for wide string
- manipulation. Various methods are used for determining the lengths of the arrays, but in
- all cases a wchar_t * argument points to the initial (lowest addressed) element of the
- array. If an array is accessed beyond the end of an object, the behavior is undefined.
-2 Where an argument declared as size_t n determines the length of the array for a
- function, n can have the value zero on a call to that function. Unless explicitly stated
- otherwise in the description of a particular function in this subclause, pointer arguments
- on such a call shall still have valid values, as described in 7.1.4. On such a call, a
- function that locates a wide character finds no occurrence, a function that compares two
- wide character sequences returns zero, and a function that copies wide characters copies
- zero wide characters.
-
-[page 422]
-
- 7.28.4.1 Wide string numeric conversion functions
- 7.28.4.1.1 The wcstod, wcstof, and wcstold functions
- Synopsis
-1 #include <wchar.h>
- double wcstod(const wchar_t * restrict nptr,
- wchar_t ** restrict endptr);
- float wcstof(const wchar_t * restrict nptr,
- wchar_t ** restrict endptr);
- long double wcstold(const wchar_t * restrict nptr,
- wchar_t ** restrict endptr);
- Description
-2 The wcstod, wcstof, and wcstold functions convert the initial portion of the wide
- string pointed to by nptr to double, float, and long double representation,
- respectively. First, they decompose the input string into three parts: an initial, possibly
- empty, sequence of white-space wide characters (as specified by the iswspace
- function), a subject sequence resembling a floating-point constant or representing an
- infinity or NaN; and a final wide string of one or more unrecognized wide characters,
- including the terminating null wide character of the input wide string. Then, they attempt
- to convert the subject sequence to a floating-point number, and return the result.
-3 The expected form of the subject sequence is an optional plus or minus sign, then one of
- the following:
- -- a nonempty sequence of decimal digits optionally containing a decimal-point wide
- character, then an optional exponent part as defined for the corresponding single-byte
- characters in 6.4.4.2;
- -- a 0x or 0X, then a nonempty sequence of hexadecimal digits optionally containing a
- decimal-point wide character, then an optional binary exponent part as defined in
- 6.4.4.2;
- -- INF or INFINITY, or any other wide string equivalent except for case
- -- NAN or NAN(n-wchar-sequenceopt), or any other wide string equivalent except for
- case in the NAN part, where:
- n-wchar-sequence:
- digit
- nondigit
- n-wchar-sequence digit
- n-wchar-sequence nondigit
- The subject sequence is defined as the longest initial subsequence of the input wide
- string, starting with the first non-white-space wide character, that is of the expected form.
-
-[page 423]
-
- The subject sequence contains no wide characters if the input wide string is not of the
- expected form.
-4 If the subject sequence has the expected form for a floating-point number, the sequence of
- wide characters starting with the first digit or the decimal-point wide character
- (whichever occurs first) is interpreted as a floating constant according to the rules of
- 6.4.4.2, except that the decimal-point wide character is used in place of a period, and that
- if neither an exponent part nor a decimal-point wide character appears in a decimal
- floating point number, or if a binary exponent part does not appear in a hexadecimal
- floating point number, an exponent part of the appropriate type with value zero is
- assumed to follow the last digit in the string. If the subject sequence begins with a minus
- sign, the sequence is interpreted as negated.330) A wide character sequence INF or
- INFINITY is interpreted as an infinity, if representable in the return type, else like a
- floating constant that is too large for the range of the return type. A wide character
- sequence NAN or NAN(n-wchar-sequenceopt) is interpreted as a quiet NaN, if supported
- in the return type, else like a subject sequence part that does not have the expected form;
- the meaning of the n-wchar sequences is implementation-defined.331) A pointer to the
- final wide string is stored in the object pointed to by endptr, provided that endptr is
- not a null pointer.
-5 If the subject sequence has the hexadecimal form and FLT_RADIX is a power of 2, the
- value resulting from the conversion is correctly rounded.
-6 In other than the "C" locale, additional locale-specific subject sequence forms may be
- accepted.
-7 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.
- Recommended practice
-8 If the subject sequence has the hexadecimal form, FLT_RADIX is not a power of 2, and
- the result is not exactly representable, the result should be one of the two numbers in the
- appropriate internal format that are adjacent to the hexadecimal floating source value,
- with the extra stipulation that the error should have a correct sign for the current rounding
- direction.
-
-
-
- 330) It is unspecified whether a minus-signed sequence is converted to a negative number directly or by
- negating the value resulting from converting the corresponding unsigned sequence (see F.5); the two
- methods may yield different results if rounding is toward positive or negative infinity. In either case,
- the functions honor the sign of zero if floating-point arithmetic supports signed zeros.
- 331) An implementation may use the n-wchar sequence to determine extra information to be represented in
- the NaN's significand.
-
-[page 424]
-
-9 If the subject sequence has the decimal form and at most DECIMAL_DIG (defined in
- <float.h>) significant digits, the result should be correctly rounded. If the subject
- sequence D has the decimal form and more than DECIMAL_DIG significant digits,
- consider the two bounding, adjacent decimal strings L and U, both having
- DECIMAL_DIG significant digits, such that the values of L, D, and U satisfy L <= D <= U.
- The result should be one of the (equal or adjacent) values that would be obtained by
- correctly rounding L and U according to the current rounding direction, with the extra
- stipulation that the error with respect to D should have a correct sign for the current
- rounding direction.332)
- Returns
-10 The functions return the converted value, if any. If no conversion could be performed,
- zero is returned. If the correct value overflows and default rounding is in effect (7.12.1),
- plus or minus HUGE_VAL, HUGE_VALF, or HUGE_VALL is returned (according to the
- return type and sign of the value), and the value of the macro ERANGE is stored in
- errno. If the result underflows (7.12.1), the functions return a value whose magnitude is
- no greater than the smallest normalized positive number in the return type; whether
- errno acquires the value ERANGE is implementation-defined.
-
-
-
-
- 332) DECIMAL_DIG, defined in <float.h>, should be sufficiently large that L and U will usually round
- to the same internal floating value, but if not will round to adjacent values.

- 7.28.4.1.2 The wcstol, wcstoll, wcstoul, and wcstoull functions
- Synopsis
-1 #include <wchar.h>
- long int wcstol(
- const wchar_t * restrict nptr,
- wchar_t ** restrict endptr,
- int base);
- long long int wcstoll(
- const wchar_t * restrict nptr,
- wchar_t ** restrict endptr,
- int base);
- unsigned long int wcstoul(
- const wchar_t * restrict nptr,
- wchar_t ** restrict endptr,
- int base);
- unsigned long long int wcstoull(
- const wchar_t * restrict nptr,
- wchar_t ** restrict endptr,
- int base);
- Description
-2 The wcstol, wcstoll, wcstoul, and wcstoull functions convert the initial
- portion of the wide string pointed to by nptr to long int, long long int,
- unsigned long int, and unsigned long long int representation,
- respectively. First, they decompose the input string into three parts: an initial, possibly
- empty, sequence of white-space wide characters (as specified by the iswspace
- function), a subject sequence resembling an integer represented in some radix determined
- by the value of base, and a final wide string of one or more unrecognized wide
- characters, including the terminating null wide character of the input wide string. Then,
- they attempt to convert the subject sequence to an integer, and return the result.
-3 If the value of base is zero, the expected form of the subject sequence is that of an
- integer constant as described for the corresponding single-byte characters in 6.4.4.1,
- optionally preceded by a plus or minus sign, but not including an integer suffix. If the
- value of base is between 2 and 36 (inclusive), 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 through 35; only
- letters and digits whose ascribed values are less than that of base are permitted. If the
- value of base is 16, the wide characters 0x or 0X may optionally precede the sequence
- of letters and digits, following the sign if present.
-
-[page 426]
-
-4 The subject sequence is defined as the longest initial subsequence of the input wide
- string, starting with the first non-white-space wide character, that is of the expected form.
- The subject sequence contains no wide characters if the input wide string is empty or
- consists entirely of white space, or if the first non-white-space wide character is other
- than a sign or a permissible letter or digit.
-5 If the subject sequence has the expected form and the value of base is zero, the sequence
- of wide characters starting with the first digit is interpreted as an integer constant
- according to the rules of 6.4.4.1. 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 (in the return type). A pointer to the final wide
- string is stored in the object pointed to by endptr, provided that endptr is not a null
- pointer.
-6 In other than the "C" locale, additional locale-specific subject sequence forms may be
- accepted.
-7 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
-8 The wcstol, wcstoll, wcstoul, and wcstoull functions return the converted
- value, if any. If no conversion could be performed, zero is returned. If the correct value
- is outside the range of representable values, LONG_MIN, LONG_MAX, LLONG_MIN,
- LLONG_MAX, ULONG_MAX, or ULLONG_MAX is returned (according to the return type
- sign of the value, if any), and the value of the macro ERANGE is stored in errno.

-
-[page 429]
-

- 7.28.4.5.6 The wcsstr function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <wchar.h>

- Description
-2 The wcsstr function locates the first occurrence in the wide string pointed to by s1 of

- wide string pointed to by s2.
- Returns
-3 The wcsstr function returns a pointer to the located wide string, or a null pointer if the

- 7.28.4.5.7 The wcstok function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <wchar.h>
- wchar_t *wcstok(wchar_t * restrict s1,
- const wchar_t * restrict s2,
- wchar_t ** restrict ptr);
- Description
-2 A sequence of calls to the wcstok function breaks the wide string pointed to by s1 into
- a sequence of tokens, each of which is delimited by a wide character from the wide string
- pointed to by s2. The third argument points to a caller-provided wchar_t pointer into
- which the wcstok function stores information necessary for it to continue scanning the
- same wide string.
-3 The first call in a sequence has a non-null first argument and stores an initial value in the
- object pointed to by ptr. Subsequent calls in the sequence have a null first argument and
- the object pointed to by ptr is required to have the value stored by the previous call in
- the sequence, which is then updated. The separator wide string pointed to by s2 may be
- different from call to call.
-4 The first call in the sequence searches the wide string pointed to by s1 for the first wide
- character that is not contained in the current separator wide string pointed to by s2. If no
- such wide character is found, then there are no tokens in the wide string pointed to by s1
- and the wcstok function returns a null pointer. If such a wide character is found, it is
- the start of the first token.
-5 The wcstok function then searches from there for a wide character that is contained in
- the current separator wide string. If no such wide character is found, the current token
-
-[page 434]
-
- extends to the end of the wide string pointed to by s1, and subsequent searches in the
- same wide string for a token return a null pointer. If such a wide character is found, it is
- overwritten by a null wide character, which terminates the current token.
-6 In all cases, the wcstok function stores sufficient information in the pointer pointed to
- by ptr so that subsequent calls, with a null pointer for s1 and the unmodified pointer
- value for ptr, shall start searching just past the element overwritten by a null wide
- character (if any).
- Returns
-7 The wcstok function returns a pointer to the first wide character of a token, or a null
- pointer if there is no token.
-8 EXAMPLE
- #include <wchar.h>
- static wchar_t str1[] = L"?a???b,,,#c";
- static wchar_t str2[] = L"\t \t";
- wchar_t *t, *ptr1, *ptr2;
- t = wcstok(str1, L"?", &ptr1); // t points to the token L"a"
- t = wcstok(NULL, L",", &ptr1); // t points to the token L"??b"
- t = wcstok(str2, L" \t", &ptr2); // t is a null pointer
- t = wcstok(NULL, L"#,", &ptr1); // t points to the token L"c"

- 7.28.5.1 The wcsftime function
- Synopsis

- #include <wchar.h>
- size_t wcsftime(wchar_t * restrict s,
- size_t maxsize,
- const wchar_t * restrict format,
- const struct tm * restrict timeptr);
- Description
-2 The wcsftime function is equivalent to the strftime function, except that:
- -- The argument s points to the initial element of an array of wide characters into which
- the generated output is to be placed.
-
-[page 436]
-
- -- The argument maxsize indicates the limiting number of wide characters.
- -- The argument format is a wide string and the conversion specifiers are replaced by
- corresponding sequences of wide characters.
- -- The return value indicates the number of wide characters.
- Returns
-3 If the total number of resulting wide characters including the terminating null wide
- character is not more than maxsize, the wcsftime function returns the number of
- wide characters placed into the array pointed to by s not including the terminating null
- wide character. Otherwise, zero is returned and the contents of the array are
- indeterminate.
- 7.28.6 Extended multibyte/wide character conversion utilities
-1 The header <wchar.h> declares an extended set of functions useful for conversion
- between multibyte characters and wide characters.
-2 Most of the following functions -- those that are listed as ''restartable'', 7.28.6.3 and
- 7.28.6.4 -- take as a last argument a pointer to an object of type mbstate_t that is used
- to describe the current conversion state from a particular multibyte character sequence to
- a wide character sequence (or the reverse) under the rules of a particular setting for the
- LC_CTYPE category of the current locale.
-3 The initial conversion state corresponds, for a conversion in either direction, to the
- beginning of a new multibyte character in the initial shift state. A zero-valued
- mbstate_t object is (at least) one way to describe an initial conversion state. A zero-
- valued mbstate_t object can be used to initiate conversion involving any multibyte
- character sequence, in any LC_CTYPE category setting. If an mbstate_t object has
- been altered by any of the functions described in this subclause, and is then used with a
- different multibyte character sequence, or in the other conversion direction, or with a
- different LC_CTYPE category setting than on earlier function calls, the behavior is
- undefined.335)
-4 On entry, each function takes the described conversion state (either internal or pointed to
- by an argument) as current. The conversion state described by the referenced object is
- altered as needed to track the shift state, and the position within a multibyte character, for
- the associated multibyte character sequence.
-
-
-
-
- 335) Thus, a particular mbstate_t object can be used, for example, with both the mbrtowc and
- mbsrtowcs functions as long as they are used to step sequentially through the same multibyte
- character string.
-
-[page 437]
-
- 7.28.6.1 Single-byte/wide character conversion functions
- 7.28.6.1.1 The btowc function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <wchar.h> *
- wint_t btowc(int c);
- Description
-2 The btowc function determines whether c constitutes a valid single-byte character in the
- initial shift state.
- Returns
-3 The btowc function returns WEOF if c has the value EOF or if (unsigned char)c
- does not constitute a valid single-byte character in the initial shift state. Otherwise, it
- returns the wide character representation of that character.
- 7.28.6.1.2 The wctob function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <wchar.h> *
- int wctob(wint_t c);
- Description
-2 The wctob function determines whether c corresponds to a member of the extended
- character set whose multibyte character representation is a single byte when in the initial
- shift state.
- Returns
-3 The wctob function returns EOF if c does not correspond to a multibyte character with
- length one in the initial shift state. Otherwise, it returns the single-byte representation of
- that character as an unsigned char converted to an int.
- 7.28.6.2 Conversion state functions
- 7.28.6.2.1 The mbsinit function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <wchar.h>
- int mbsinit(const mbstate_t *ps);
- Description
-2 If ps is not a null pointer, the mbsinit function determines whether the referenced
- mbstate_t object describes an initial conversion state.
-
-[page 438]
-
- Returns
-3 The mbsinit function returns nonzero if ps is a null pointer or if the referenced object
- describes an initial conversion state; otherwise, it returns zero.
- 7.28.6.3 Restartable multibyte/wide character conversion functions
-1 These functions differ from the corresponding multibyte character functions of 7.22.7
- (mblen, mbtowc, and wctomb) in that they have an extra parameter, ps, of type
- pointer to mbstate_t that points to an object that can completely describe the current
- conversion state of the associated multibyte character sequence. If ps is a null pointer,
- each function uses its own internal mbstate_t object instead, which is initialized at
- program startup to the initial conversion state; the functions are not required to avoid data
- races in this case. The implementation behaves as if no library function calls these
- functions with a null pointer for ps.
-2 Also unlike their corresponding functions, the return value does not represent whether the
- encoding is state-dependent.
- 7.28.6.3.1 The mbrlen function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <wchar.h>
- size_t mbrlen(const char * restrict s,
- size_t n,
- mbstate_t * restrict ps);
- Description
-2 The mbrlen function is equivalent to the call:
- mbrtowc(NULL, s, n, ps != NULL ? ps : &internal)
- where internal is the mbstate_t object for the mbrlen function, except that the
- expression designated by ps is evaluated only once.
- Returns
-3 The mbrlen function returns a value between zero and n, inclusive, (size_t)(-2),
- or (size_t)(-1).
- Forward references: the mbrtowc function (7.28.6.3.2).

-2 If s is a null pointer, the mbrtowc function is equivalent to the call:
- mbrtowc(NULL, "", 1, ps)
- In this case, the values of the parameters pwc and n are ignored.
-3 If s is not a null pointer, the mbrtowc function inspects at most n bytes beginning with
- the byte pointed to by s to determine the number of bytes needed to complete the next
- multibyte character (including any shift sequences). If the function determines that the
- next multibyte character is complete and valid, it determines the value of the
- corresponding wide character and then, if pwc is not a null pointer, stores that value in
- the object pointed to by pwc. If the corresponding wide character is the null wide
- character, the resulting state described is the initial conversion state.
- Returns
-4 The mbrtowc function returns the first of the following that applies (given the current
- conversion state):
- 0 if the next n or fewer bytes complete the multibyte character that
- corresponds to the null wide character (which is the value stored).
- between 1 and n inclusive if the next n or fewer bytes complete a valid multibyte
- character (which is the value stored); the value returned is the number
- of bytes that complete the multibyte character.
- (size_t)(-2) if the next n bytes contribute to an incomplete (but potentially valid)
- multibyte character, and all n bytes have been processed (no value is
- stored).336)
- (size_t)(-1) if an encoding error occurs, in which case the next n or fewer bytes
- do not contribute to a complete and valid multibyte character (no
- value is stored); the value of the macro EILSEQ is stored in errno,
- and the conversion state is unspecified.
-
- 336) When n has at least the value of the MB_CUR_MAX macro, this case can only occur if s points at a
- sequence of redundant shift sequences (for implementations with state-dependent encodings).

- 7.28.6.3.3 The wcrtomb function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <wchar.h>
- size_t wcrtomb(char * restrict s,
- wchar_t wc,
- mbstate_t * restrict ps);
- Description
-2 If s is a null pointer, the wcrtomb function is equivalent to the call
- wcrtomb(buf, L'\0', ps)
- where buf is an internal buffer.
-3 If s is not a null pointer, the wcrtomb function determines the number of bytes needed
- to represent the multibyte character that corresponds to the wide character given by wc
- (including any shift sequences), and stores the multibyte character representation in the
- array whose first element is pointed to by s. At most MB_CUR_MAX bytes are stored. If
- wc is a null wide character, a null byte is stored, preceded by any shift sequence needed
- to restore the initial shift state; the resulting state described is the initial conversion state.
- Returns
-4 The wcrtomb function returns the number of bytes stored in the array object (including
- any shift sequences). When wc is not a valid wide character, an encoding error occurs:
- the function stores the value of the macro EILSEQ in errno and returns
- (size_t)(-1); the conversion state is unspecified.
- 7.28.6.4 Restartable multibyte/wide string conversion functions
-1 These functions differ from the corresponding multibyte string functions of 7.22.8
- (mbstowcs and wcstombs) in that they have an extra parameter, ps, of type pointer to
- mbstate_t that points to an object that can completely describe the current conversion
- state of the associated multibyte character sequence. If ps is a null pointer, each function
- uses its own internal mbstate_t object instead, which is initialized at program startup
- to the initial conversion state; the functions are not required to avoid data races in this
- case. The implementation behaves as if no library function calls these functions with a
- null pointer for ps.
-2 Also unlike their corresponding functions, the conversion source parameter, src, has a
- pointer-to-pointer type. When the function is storing the results of conversions (that is,
- when dst is not a null pointer), the pointer object pointed to by this parameter is updated
- to reflect the amount of the source processed by that invocation.
-
-[page 441]
-
- 7.28.6.4.1 The mbsrtowcs function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <wchar.h>
- size_t mbsrtowcs(wchar_t * restrict dst,
- const char ** restrict src,
- size_t len,
- mbstate_t * restrict ps);
- Description
-2 The mbsrtowcs function converts a sequence of multibyte characters that begins in the
- conversion state described by the object pointed to by ps, from the array indirectly
- pointed to by src into a sequence of corresponding wide characters. If dst is not a null
- pointer, the converted characters are stored into the array pointed to by dst. Conversion
- continues up to and including a terminating null character, which is also stored.
- Conversion stops earlier in two cases: when a sequence of bytes is encountered that does
- not form a valid multibyte character, or (if dst is not a null pointer) when len wide
- characters have been stored into the array pointed to by dst.337) Each conversion takes
- place as if by a call to the mbrtowc function.
-3 If dst is not a null pointer, the pointer object pointed to by src is assigned either a null
- pointer (if conversion stopped due to reaching a terminating null character) or the address
- just past the last multibyte character converted (if any). If conversion stopped due to
- reaching a terminating null character and if dst is not a null pointer, the resulting state
- described is the initial conversion state.
- Returns
-4 If the input conversion encounters a sequence of bytes that do not form a valid multibyte
- character, an encoding error occurs: the mbsrtowcs function stores the value of the
- macro EILSEQ in errno and returns (size_t)(-1); the conversion state is
- unspecified. Otherwise, it returns the number of multibyte characters successfully
- converted, not including the terminating null character (if any).
-
-
-
-
- 337) Thus, the value of len is ignored if dst is a null pointer.

- 7.28.6.4.2 The wcsrtombs function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <wchar.h>
- size_t wcsrtombs(char * restrict dst,
- const wchar_t ** restrict src,
- size_t len,
- mbstate_t * restrict ps);
- Description
-2 The wcsrtombs function converts a sequence of wide characters from the array
- indirectly pointed to by src into a sequence of corresponding multibyte characters that
- begins in the conversion state described by the object pointed to by ps. If dst is not a
- null pointer, the converted characters are then stored into the array pointed to by dst.
- Conversion continues up to and including a terminating null wide character, which is also
- stored. Conversion stops earlier in two cases: when a wide character is reached that does
- not correspond to a valid multibyte character, or (if dst is not a null pointer) when the
- next multibyte character would exceed the limit of len total bytes to be stored into the
- array pointed to by dst. Each conversion takes place as if by a call to the wcrtomb
- function.338)
-3 If dst is not a null pointer, the pointer object pointed to by src is assigned either a null
- pointer (if conversion stopped due to reaching a terminating null wide character) or the
- address just past the last wide character converted (if any). If conversion stopped due to
- reaching a terminating null wide character, the resulting state described is the initial
- conversion state.
- Returns
-4 If conversion stops because a wide character is reached that does not correspond to a
- valid multibyte character, an encoding error occurs: the wcsrtombs function stores the
- value of the macro EILSEQ in errno and returns (size_t)(-1); the conversion
- state is unspecified. Otherwise, it returns the number of bytes in the resulting multibyte
- character sequence, not including the terminating null character (if any).
-
-
-
-
- 338) If conversion stops because a terminating null wide character has been reached, the bytes stored
- include those necessary to reach the initial shift state immediately before the null byte.

- 7.29 Wide character classification and mapping utilities <wctype.h>
- 7.29.1 Introduction
-1 The header <wctype.h> defines one macro, and declares three data types and many
- functions.339)
-2 The types declared are
- wint_t
- described in 7.28.1;
- wctrans_t
- which is a scalar type that can hold values which represent locale-specific character
- mappings; and
- wctype_t
- which is a scalar type that can hold values which represent locale-specific character
- classifications.
-3 The macro defined is WEOF (described in 7.28.1).
-4 The functions declared are grouped as follows:
- -- Functions that provide wide character classification;
- -- Extensible functions that provide wide character classification;
- -- Functions that provide wide character case mapping;
- -- Extensible functions that provide wide character mapping.
-5 For all functions described in this subclause that accept an argument of type wint_t, the
- value shall be representable as a wchar_t or shall equal the value of the macro WEOF. If
- this argument has any other value, the behavior is undefined.
-6 The behavior of these functions is affected by the LC_CTYPE category of the current
- locale.
-

-
-
- 339) See ''future library directions'' (7.30.13).
-
-[page 444]
-
- 7.29.2 Wide character classification utilities
-1 The header <wctype.h> declares several functions useful for classifying wide
- characters.
-2 The term printing wide character refers to a member of a locale-specific set of wide
- characters, each of which occupies at least one printing position on a display device. The
- term control wide character refers to a member of a locale-specific set of wide characters
- that are not printing wide characters.
- 7.29.2.1 Wide character classification functions
-1 The functions in this subclause return nonzero (true) if and only if the value of the
- argument wc conforms to that in the description of the function.
-2 Each of the following functions returns true for each wide character that corresponds (as
- if by a call to the wctob function) to a single-byte character for which the corresponding
- character classification function from 7.4.1 returns true, except that the iswgraph and
- iswpunct functions may differ with respect to wide characters other than L' ' that are
- both printing and white-space wide characters.340)
- Forward references: the wctob function (7.28.6.1.2).

- iswlower is true, or any wide character that is one of a locale-specific set of alphabetic
-
- 340) For example, if the expression isalpha(wctob(wc)) evaluates to true, then the call
- iswalpha(wc) also returns true. But, if the expression isgraph(wctob(wc)) evaluates to true
- (which cannot occur for wc == L' ' of course), then either iswgraph(wc) or iswprint(wc)
- && iswspace(wc) is true, but not both.
-
-[page 445]

- character or is one of a locale-specific set of wide characters for which iswspace is true
- and that is used to separate words within a line of text. The standard blank wide
- characters are the following: space (L' '), and horizontal tab (L'\t'). In the "C"
- locale, iswblank returns true only for the standard blank characters.

- towctrans(wc, wctrans("tolower")) // towlower(wc)
- towctrans(wc, wctrans("toupper")) // towupper(wc)
- Returns
-4 The towctrans function returns the mapped value of wc using the mapping described

- IEC 60559 floating-point arithmetic
- F.1 Introduction
-1 This annex specifies C language support for the IEC 60559 floating-point standard. The
- IEC 60559 floating-point standard is specifically Binary floating-point arithmetic for
- microprocessor systems, second edition (IEC 60559:1989), previously designated
- IEC 559:1989 and as IEEE Standard for Binary Floating-Point Arithmetic
- (ANSI/IEEE 754-1985). IEEE Standard for Radix-Independent Floating-Point
- Arithmetic (ANSI/IEEE 854-1987) generalizes the binary standard to remove
- dependencies on radix and word length. IEC 60559 generally refers to the floating-point
- standard, as in IEC 60559 operation, IEC 60559 format, etc. An implementation that
- defines __STDC_IEC_559__ shall conform to the specifications in this annex.343)
- Where a binding between the C language and IEC 60559 is indicated, the
- IEC 60559-specified behavior is adopted by reference, unless stated otherwise. Since
- negative and positive infinity are representable in IEC 60559 formats, all real numbers lie
- within the range of representable values.
- F.2 Types
-1 The C floating types match the IEC 60559 formats as follows:
- -- The float type matches the IEC 60559 single format.
- -- The double type matches the IEC 60559 double format.
- -- The long double type matches an IEC 60559 extended format,344) else a
- non-IEC 60559 extended format, else the IEC 60559 double format.
- Any non-IEC 60559 extended format used for the long double type shall have more
- precision than IEC 60559 double and at least the range of IEC 60559 double.345)
-
-
-
-
- 343) Implementations that do not define __STDC_IEC_559__ are not required to conform to these
- specifications.
- 344) ''Extended'' is IEC 60559's double-extended data format. Extended refers to both the common 80-bit
- and quadruple 128-bit IEC 60559 formats.
- 345) A non-IEC 60559 long double type is required to provide infinity and NaNs, as its values include
- all double values.
-
-[page 503]
-
- Recommended practice
-2 The long double type should match an IEC 60559 extended format.
- F.2.1 Infinities, signed zeros, and NaNs
-1 This specification does not define the behavior of signaling NaNs.346) It generally uses
- the term NaN to denote quiet NaNs. The NAN and INFINITY macros and the nan
- functions in <math.h> provide designations for IEC 60559 NaNs and infinities.
- F.3 Operators and functions
-1 C operators and functions provide IEC 60559 required and recommended facilities as
- listed below.
- -- The +, -, *, and / operators provide the IEC 60559 add, subtract, multiply, and
- divide operations.
- -- The sqrt functions in <math.h> provide the IEC 60559 square root operation.
- -- The remainder functions in <math.h> provide the IEC 60559 remainder
- operation. The remquo functions in <math.h> provide the same operation but
- with additional information.
- -- The rint functions in <math.h> provide the IEC 60559 operation that rounds a
- floating-point number to an integer value (in the same precision). The nearbyint
- functions in <math.h> provide the nearbyinteger function recommended in the
- Appendix to ANSI/IEEE 854.
- -- The conversions for floating types provide the IEC 60559 conversions between
- floating-point precisions.
- -- The conversions from integer to floating types provide the IEC 60559 conversions
- from integer to floating point.
- -- The conversions from floating to integer types provide IEC 60559-like conversions
- but always round toward zero.
- -- The lrint and llrint functions in <math.h> provide the IEC 60559
- conversions, which honor the directed rounding mode, from floating point to the
- long int and long long int integer formats. The lrint and llrint
- functions can be used to implement IEC 60559 conversions from floating to other
- integer formats.
- -- The translation time conversion of floating constants and the strtod, strtof,
- strtold, fprintf, fscanf, and related library functions in <stdlib.h>,
-
-
- 346) Since NaNs created by IEC 60559 operations are always quiet, quiet NaNs (along with infinities) are
- sufficient for closure of the arithmetic.
-
-[page 504]
-
- <stdio.h>, and <wchar.h> provide IEC 60559 binary-decimal conversions. The
- strtold function in <stdlib.h> provides the conv function recommended in the
- Appendix to ANSI/IEEE 854.
--- The relational and equality operators provide IEC 60559 comparisons. IEC 60559
- identifies a need for additional comparison predicates to facilitate writing code that
- accounts for NaNs. The comparison macros (isgreater, isgreaterequal,
- isless, islessequal, islessgreater, and isunordered) in <math.h>
- supplement the language operators to address this need. The islessgreater and
- isunordered macros provide respectively a quiet version of the <> predicate and
- the unordered predicate recommended in the Appendix to IEC 60559.
--- The feclearexcept, feraiseexcept, and fetestexcept functions in
- <fenv.h> provide the facility to test and alter the IEC 60559 floating-point
- exception status flags. The fegetexceptflag and fesetexceptflag
- functions in <fenv.h> provide the facility to save and restore all five status flags at
- one time. These functions are used in conjunction with the type fexcept_t and the
- floating-point exception macros (FE_INEXACT, FE_DIVBYZERO,
- FE_UNDERFLOW, FE_OVERFLOW, FE_INVALID) also in <fenv.h>.
--- The fegetround and fesetround functions in <fenv.h> provide the facility
- to select among the IEC 60559 directed rounding modes represented by the rounding
- direction macros in <fenv.h> (FE_TONEAREST, FE_UPWARD, FE_DOWNWARD,
- FE_TOWARDZERO) and the values 0, 1, 2, and 3 of FLT_ROUNDS are the
- IEC 60559 directed rounding modes.
--- The fegetenv, feholdexcept, fesetenv, and feupdateenv functions in
- <fenv.h> provide a facility to manage the floating-point environment, comprising
- the IEC 60559 status flags and control modes.
--- The copysign functions in <math.h> provide the copysign function
- recommended in the Appendix to IEC 60559.
--- The fabs functions in <math.h> provide the abs function recommended in the
- Appendix to IEC 60559.
--- The unary minus (-) operator provides the unary minus (-) operation recommended
- in the Appendix to IEC 60559.
--- The scalbn and scalbln functions in <math.h> provide the scalb function
- recommended in the Appendix to IEC 60559.
--- The logb functions in <math.h> provide the logb function recommended in the
- Appendix to IEC 60559, but following the newer specifications in ANSI/IEEE 854.
--- The nextafter and nexttoward functions in <math.h> provide the nextafter
- function recommended in the Appendix to IEC 60559 (but with a minor change to
-
-[page 505]
-
- better handle signed zeros).
- -- The isfinite macro in <math.h> provides the finite function recommended in
- the Appendix to IEC 60559.
- -- The isnan macro in <math.h> provides the isnan function recommended in the
- Appendix to IEC 60559.
- -- The signbit macro and the fpclassify macro in <math.h>, used in
- conjunction with the number classification macros (FP_NAN, FP_INFINITE,
- FP_NORMAL, FP_SUBNORMAL, FP_ZERO), provide the facility of the class
- function recommended in the Appendix to IEC 60559 (except that the classification
- macros defined in 7.12.3 do not distinguish signaling from quiet NaNs).
- F.4 Floating to integer conversion
-1 If the integer type is _Bool, 6.3.1.2 applies and no floating-point exceptions are raised
- (even for NaN). Otherwise, if the floating value is infinite or NaN or if the integral part
- of the floating value exceeds the range of the integer type, then the ''invalid'' floating-
- point exception is raised and the resulting value is unspecified. Otherwise, the resulting
- value is determined by 6.3.1.4. Conversion of an integral floating value that does not
- exceed the range of the integer type raises no floating-point exceptions; whether
- conversion of a non-integral floating value raises the ''inexact'' floating-point exception is
- unspecified.347)
- F.5 Binary-decimal conversion
-1 Conversion from the widest supported IEC 60559 format to decimal with
- DECIMAL_DIG digits and back is the identity function.348)
-2 Conversions involving IEC 60559 formats follow all pertinent recommended practice. In
- particular, conversion between any supported IEC 60559 format and decimal with
- DECIMAL_DIG or fewer significant digits is correctly rounded (honoring the current
- rounding mode), which assures that conversion from the widest supported IEC 60559
- format to decimal with DECIMAL_DIG digits and back is the identity function.

- 347) ANSI/IEEE 854, but not IEC 60559 (ANSI/IEEE 754), directly specifies that floating-to-integer
- conversions raise the ''inexact'' floating-point exception for non-integer in-range values. In those
- cases where it matters, library functions can be used to effect such conversions with or without raising
- the ''inexact'' floating-point exception. See rint, lrint, llrint, and nearbyint in
- <math.h>.
- 348) If the minimum-width IEC 60559 extended format (64 bits of precision) is supported,
- DECIMAL_DIG shall be at least 21. If IEC 60559 double (53 bits of precision) is the widest
- IEC 60559 format supported, then DECIMAL_DIG shall be at least 17. (By contrast, LDBL_DIG and
- DBL_DIG are 18 and 15, respectively, for these formats.)
-
-[page 506]
-
-3 Functions such as strtod that convert character sequences to floating types honor the
- rounding direction. Hence, if the rounding direction might be upward or downward, the
- implementation cannot convert a minus-signed sequence by negating the converted
- unsigned sequence.
- F.6 The return statement
- If the return expression is evaluated in a floating-point format different from the return
- type, the expression is converted as if by assignment349) to the return type of the function
- and the resulting value is returned to the caller.
- F.7 Contracted expressions
-1 A contracted expression is correctly rounded (once) and treats infinities, NaNs, signed
- zeros, subnormals, and the rounding directions in a manner consistent with the basic
- arithmetic operations covered by IEC 60559.
- Recommended practice
-2 A contracted expression should raise floating-point exceptions in a manner generally
- consistent with the basic arithmetic operations. *
- F.8 Floating-point environment
-1 The floating-point environment defined in <fenv.h> includes the IEC 60559 floating-
- point exception status flags and directed-rounding control modes. It includes also
- IEC 60559 dynamic rounding precision and trap enablement modes, if the
- implementation supports them.350)
- F.8.1 Environment management
-1 IEC 60559 requires that floating-point operations implicitly raise floating-point exception
- status flags, and that rounding control modes can be set explicitly to affect result values of
- floating-point operations. When the state for the FENV_ACCESS pragma (defined in
- <fenv.h>) is ''on'', these changes to the floating-point state are treated as side effects
- which respect sequence points.351)
-
-
-
-
- 349) Assignment removes any extra range and precision.
- 350) This specification does not require dynamic rounding precision nor trap enablement modes.
- 351) If the state for the FENV_ACCESS pragma is ''off'', the implementation is free to assume the floating-
- point control modes will be the default ones and the floating-point status flags will not be tested,
- which allows certain optimizations (see F.9).
-
-[page 507]
-
- F.8.2 Translation
-1 During translation the IEC 60559 default modes are in effect:
- -- The rounding direction mode is rounding to nearest.
- -- The rounding precision mode (if supported) is set so that results are not shortened.
- -- Trapping or stopping (if supported) is disabled on all floating-point exceptions.
- Recommended practice
-2 The implementation should produce a diagnostic message for each translation-time
- floating-point exception, other than ''inexact'';352) the implementation should then
- proceed with the translation of the program.
- F.8.3 Execution
-1 At program startup the floating-point environment is initialized as prescribed by
- IEC 60559:
- -- All floating-point exception status flags are cleared.
- -- The rounding direction mode is rounding to nearest.
- -- The dynamic rounding precision mode (if supported) is set so that results are not
- shortened.
- -- Trapping or stopping (if supported) is disabled on all floating-point exceptions.
- F.8.4 Constant expressions
-1 An arithmetic constant expression of floating type, other than one in an initializer for an
- object that has static or thread storage duration, is evaluated (as if) during execution; thus,
- it is affected by any operative floating-point control modes and raises floating-point
- exceptions as required by IEC 60559 (provided the state for the FENV_ACCESS pragma
- is ''on'').353)
-2 EXAMPLE
-
-
-
- 352) As floating constants are converted to appropriate internal representations at translation time, their
- conversion is subject to default rounding modes and raises no execution-time floating-point exceptions
- (even where the state of the FENV_ACCESS pragma is ''on''). Library functions, for example
- strtod, provide execution-time conversion of numeric strings.
- 353) Where the state for the FENV_ACCESS pragma is ''on'', results of inexact expressions like 1.0/3.0
- are affected by rounding modes set at execution time, and expressions such as 0.0/0.0 and
- 1.0/0.0 generate execution-time floating-point exceptions. The programmer can achieve the
- efficiency of translation-time evaluation through static initialization, such as
- const static double one_third = 1.0/3.0;
-
-[page 508]
-
- #include <fenv.h>
- #pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS ON
- void f(void)
- {
- float w[] = { 0.0/0.0 }; // raises an exception
- static float x = 0.0/0.0; // does not raise an exception
- float y = 0.0/0.0; // raises an exception
- double z = 0.0/0.0; // raises an exception
- /* ... */
- }
-3 For the static initialization, the division is done at translation time, raising no (execution-time) floating-
- point exceptions. On the other hand, for the three automatic initializations the invalid division occurs at
- execution time.
-
- F.8.5 Initialization
-1 All computation for automatic initialization is done (as if) at execution time; thus, it is
- affected by any operative modes and raises floating-point exceptions as required by
- IEC 60559 (provided the state for the FENV_ACCESS pragma is ''on''). All computation
- for initialization of objects that have static or thread storage duration is done (as if) at
- translation time.
-2 EXAMPLE
- #include <fenv.h>
- #pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS ON
- void f(void)
- {
- float u[] = { 1.1e75 }; // raises exceptions
- static float v = 1.1e75; // does not raise exceptions
- float w = 1.1e75; // raises exceptions
- double x = 1.1e75; // may raise exceptions
- float y = 1.1e75f; // may raise exceptions
- long double z = 1.1e75; // does not raise exceptions
- /* ... */
- }
-3 The static initialization of v raises no (execution-time) floating-point exceptions because its computation is
- done at translation time. The automatic initialization of u and w require an execution-time conversion to
- float of the wider value 1.1e75, which raises floating-point exceptions. The automatic initializations
- of x and y entail execution-time conversion; however, in some expression evaluation methods, the
- conversions is not to a narrower format, in which case no floating-point exception is raised.354) The
- automatic initialization of z entails execution-time conversion, but not to a narrower format, so no floating-
- point exception is raised. Note that the conversions of the floating constants 1.1e75 and 1.1e75f to
-
-
-
- 354) Use of float_t and double_t variables increases the likelihood of translation-time computation.
- For example, the automatic initialization
- double_t x = 1.1e75;
- could be done at translation time, regardless of the expression evaluation method.
-
-[page 509]
-
- their internal representations occur at translation time in all cases.
-
- F.8.6 Changing the environment
-1 Operations defined in 6.5 and functions and macros defined for the standard libraries
- change floating-point status flags and control modes just as indicated by their
- specifications (including conformance to IEC 60559). They do not change flags or modes
- (so as to be detectable by the user) in any other cases.
-2 If the argument to the feraiseexcept function in <fenv.h> represents IEC 60559
- valid coincident floating-point exceptions for atomic operations (namely ''overflow'' and
- ''inexact'', or ''underflow'' and ''inexact''), then ''overflow'' or ''underflow'' is raised
- before ''inexact''.
- F.9 Optimization
-1 This section identifies code transformations that might subvert IEC 60559-specified
- behavior, and others that do not.
- F.9.1 Global transformations
-1 Floating-point arithmetic operations and external function calls may entail side effects
- which optimization shall honor, at least where the state of the FENV_ACCESS pragma is
- ''on''. The flags and modes in the floating-point environment may be regarded as global
- variables; floating-point operations (+, *, etc.) implicitly read the modes and write the
- flags.
-2 Concern about side effects may inhibit code motion and removal of seemingly useless
- code. For example, in
- #include <fenv.h>
- #pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS ON
- void f(double x)
- {
- /* ... */
- for (i = 0; i < n; i++) x + 1;
- /* ... */
- }
- x + 1 might raise floating-point exceptions, so cannot be removed. And since the loop
- body might not execute (maybe 0 >= n), x + 1 cannot be moved out of the loop. (Of
- course these optimizations are valid if the implementation can rule out the nettlesome
- cases.)
-3 This specification does not require support for trap handlers that maintain information
- about the order or count of floating-point exceptions. Therefore, between function calls,
- floating-point exceptions need not be precise: the actual order and number of occurrences
- of floating-point exceptions (> 1) may vary from what the source code expresses. Thus,
-
-[page 510]
-
- the preceding loop could be treated as
- if (0 < n) x + 1;
- F.9.2 Expression transformations
-1 x/2 <-> x x 0.5 Although similar transformations involving inexact constants
- generally do not yield numerically equivalent expressions, if the
- constants are exact then such transformations can be made on
- IEC 60559 machines and others that round perfectly.
- 1 x x and x/1 -> x The expressions 1 x x, x/1, and x are equivalent (on IEC 60559
- machines, among others).355)
- x/x -> 1.0 The expressions x/x and 1.0 are not equivalent if x can be zero,
- infinite, or NaN.
- x - y <-> x + (-y) The expressions x - y, x + (-y), and (-y) + x are equivalent (on
- IEC 60559 machines, among others).
- x - y <-> -(y - x) The expressions x - y and -(y - x) are not equivalent because 1 - 1
- is +0 but -(1 - 1) is -0 (in the default rounding direction).356)
- x - x -> 0.0 The expressions x - x and 0.0 are not equivalent if x is a NaN or
- infinite.
- 0 x x -> 0.0 The expressions 0 x x and 0.0 are not equivalent if x is a NaN,
- infinite, or -0.
- x+0-> x The expressions x + 0 and x are not equivalent if x is -0, because
- (-0) + (+0) yields +0 (in the default rounding direction), not -0.
- x-0-> x (+0) - (+0) yields -0 when rounding is downward (toward -(inf)), but
- +0 otherwise, and (-0) - (+0) always yields -0; so, if the state of the
- FENV_ACCESS pragma is ''off'', promising default rounding, then
- the implementation can replace x - 0 by x, even if x might be zero.
- -x <-> 0 - x The expressions -x and 0 - x are not equivalent if x is +0, because
- -(+0) yields -0, but 0 - (+0) yields +0 (unless rounding is
- downward).
-
- 355) Strict support for signaling NaNs -- not required by this specification -- would invalidate these and
- other transformations that remove arithmetic operators.
- 356) IEC 60559 prescribes a signed zero to preserve mathematical identities across certain discontinuities.
- Examples include:
- 1/(1/ (+-) (inf)) is (+-) (inf)
- and
- conj(csqrt(z)) is csqrt(conj(z)),
- for complex z.
-
-[page 511]
-
- F.9.3 Relational operators
-1 x != x -> false The expression x != x is true if x is a NaN.
- x = x -> true The expression x = x is false if x is a NaN.
- x < y -> isless(x,y) (and similarly for <=, >, >=) Though numerically equal, these
- expressions are not equivalent because of side effects when x or y is a
- NaN and the state of the FENV_ACCESS pragma is ''on''. This
- transformation, which would be desirable if extra code were required
- to cause the ''invalid'' floating-point exception for unordered cases,
- could be performed provided the state of the FENV_ACCESS pragma
- is ''off''.
- The sense of relational operators shall be maintained. This includes handling unordered
- cases as expressed by the source code.
-2 EXAMPLE
- // calls g and raises ''invalid'' if a and b are unordered
- if (a < b)
- f();
- else
- g();
- is not equivalent to
- // calls f and raises ''invalid'' if a and b are unordered
- if (a >= b)
- g();
- else
- f();
- nor to
- // calls f without raising ''invalid'' if a and b are unordered
- if (isgreaterequal(a,b))
- g();
- else
- f();
- nor, unless the state of the FENV_ACCESS pragma is ''off'', to
- // calls g without raising ''invalid'' if a and b are unordered
- if (isless(a,b))
- f();
- else
- g();
- but is equivalent to
-
-[page 512]
-
- if (!(a < b))
- g();
- else
- f();
-
- F.9.4 Constant arithmetic
-1 The implementation shall honor floating-point exceptions raised by execution-time
- constant arithmetic wherever the state of the FENV_ACCESS pragma is ''on''. (See F.8.4
- and F.8.5.) An operation on constants that raises no floating-point exception can be
- folded during translation, except, if the state of the FENV_ACCESS pragma is ''on'', a
- further check is required to assure that changing the rounding direction to downward does
- not alter the sign of the result,357) and implementations that support dynamic rounding
- precision modes shall assure further that the result of the operation raises no floating-
- point exception when converted to the semantic type of the operation.
- F.10 Mathematics <math.h>
-1 This subclause contains specifications of <math.h> facilities that are particularly suited
- for IEC 60559 implementations.
-2 The Standard C macro HUGE_VAL and its float and long double analogs,
- HUGE_VALF and HUGE_VALL, expand to expressions whose values are positive
- infinities.
-3 Special cases for functions in <math.h> are covered directly or indirectly by
- IEC 60559. The functions that IEC 60559 specifies directly are identified in F.3. The
- other functions in <math.h> treat infinities, NaNs, signed zeros, subnormals, and
- (provided the state of the FENV_ACCESS pragma is ''on'') the floating-point status flags
- in a manner consistent with the basic arithmetic operations covered by IEC 60559.
-4 The expression math_errhandling & MATH_ERREXCEPT shall evaluate to a
- nonzero value.
-5 The ''invalid'' and ''divide-by-zero'' floating-point exceptions are raised as specified in
- subsequent subclauses of this annex.
-6 The ''overflow'' floating-point exception is raised whenever an infinity -- or, because of
- rounding direction, a maximal-magnitude finite number -- is returned in lieu of a value
- whose magnitude is too large.
-7 The ''underflow'' floating-point exception is raised whenever a result is tiny (essentially
- subnormal or zero) and suffers loss of accuracy.358)
-
-
- 357) 0 - 0 yields -0 instead of +0 just when the rounding direction is downward.
- 358) IEC 60559 allows different definitions of underflow. They all result in the same values, but differ on
- when the floating-point exception is raised.
-
-[page 513]
-
-8 Whether or when library functions raise the ''inexact'' floating-point exception is
- unspecified, unless explicitly specified otherwise.
-9 Whether or when library functions raise an undeserved ''underflow'' floating-point
- exception is unspecified.359) Otherwise, as implied by F.8.6, the <math.h> functions do
- not raise spurious floating-point exceptions (detectable by the user), other than the
- ''inexact'' floating-point exception.
-10 Whether the functions honor the rounding direction mode is implementation-defined,
- unless explicitly specified otherwise.
-11 Functions with a NaN argument return a NaN result and raise no floating-point exception,
- except where stated otherwise.
-12 The specifications in the following subclauses append to the definitions in <math.h>.
- For families of functions, the specifications apply to all of the functions even though only
- the principal function is shown. Unless otherwise specified, where the symbol ''(+-)''
- occurs in both an argument and the result, the result has the same sign as the argument.
- Recommended practice
-13 If a function with one or more NaN arguments returns a NaN result, the result should be
- the same as one of the NaN arguments (after possible type conversion), except perhaps
- for the sign.

- F.10.6.7 The lround and llround functions
-1 The lround and llround functions differ from the lrint and llrint functions

- round halfway cases away from zero and need not raise the ''inexact'' floating-point

- times y is an exact infinity and z is also an infinity but with the opposite sign.
-
-
-
-
- 361) Ideally, fmax would be sensitive to the sign of zero, for example fmax(-0.0, +0.0) would

- Annex G
- (normative)
- IEC 60559-compatible complex arithmetic
- G.1 Introduction
-1 This annex supplements annex F to specify complex arithmetic for compatibility with
- IEC 60559 real floating-point arithmetic. An implementation that defines *
- __STDC_IEC_559_COMPLEX__ shall conform to the specifications in this annex.362)
- G.2 Types
-1 There is a new keyword _Imaginary, which is used to specify imaginary types. It is
- used as a type specifier within declaration specifiers in the same way as _Complex is
- (thus, _Imaginary float is a valid type name).
-2 There are three imaginary types, designated as float _Imaginary, double
- _Imaginary, and long double _Imaginary. The imaginary types (along with
- the real floating and complex types) are floating types.
-3 For imaginary types, the corresponding real type is given by deleting the keyword
- _Imaginary from the type name.
-4 Each imaginary type has the same representation and alignment requirements as the
- corresponding real type. The value of an object of imaginary type is the value of the real
- representation times the imaginary unit.
-5 The imaginary type domain comprises the imaginary types.
- G.3 Conventions
-1 A complex or imaginary value with at least one infinite part is regarded as an infinity
- (even if its other part is a NaN). A complex or imaginary value is a finite number if each
- of its parts is a finite number (neither infinite nor NaN). A complex or imaginary value is
- a zero if each of its parts is a zero.
-
-
-
-
- 362) Implementations that do not define __STDC_IEC_559_COMPLEX__ are not required to conform
- to these specifications.
-
-[page 528]
-
- G.4 Conversions
- G.4.1 Imaginary types
-1 Conversions among imaginary types follow rules analogous to those for real floating
- types.
- G.4.2 Real and imaginary
-1 When a value of imaginary type is converted to a real type other than _Bool,363) the
- result is a positive zero.
-2 When a value of real type is converted to an imaginary type, the result is a positive
- imaginary zero.
- G.4.3 Imaginary and complex
-1 When a value of imaginary type is converted to a complex type, the real part of the
- complex result value is a positive zero and the imaginary part of the complex result value
- is determined by the conversion rules for the corresponding real types.
-2 When a value of complex type is converted to an imaginary type, the real part of the
- complex value is discarded and the value of the imaginary part is converted according to
- the conversion rules for the corresponding real types.
- G.5 Binary operators
-1 The following subclauses supplement 6.5 in order to specify the type of the result for an
- operation with an imaginary operand.
-2 For most operand types, the value of the result of a binary operator with an imaginary or
- complex operand is completely determined, with reference to real arithmetic, by the usual
- mathematical formula. For some operand types, the usual mathematical formula is
- problematic because of its treatment of infinities and because of undue overflow or
- underflow; in these cases the result satisfies certain properties (specified in G.5.1), but is
- not completely determined.
-
-
-
-
- 363) See 6.3.1.2.
-
-[page 529]
-
- G.5.1 Multiplicative operators
- Semantics
-1 If one operand has real type and the other operand has imaginary type, then the result has
- imaginary type. If both operands have imaginary type, then the result has real type. (If
- either operand has complex type, then the result has complex type.)
-2 If the operands are not both complex, then the result and floating-point exception
- behavior of the * operator is defined by the usual mathematical formula:
- * u iv u + iv
-
- x xu i(xv) (xu) + i(xv)
-
- iy i(yu) -yv (-yv) + i(yu)
-
- x + iy (xu) + i(yu) (-yv) + i(xv)
-3 If the second operand is not complex, then the result and floating-point exception
- behavior of the / operator is defined by the usual mathematical formula:
- / u iv
-
- x x/u i(-x/v)
-
- iy i(y/u) y/v
-
- x + iy (x/u) + i(y/u) (y/v) + i(-x/v)
-4 The * and / operators satisfy the following infinity properties for all real, imaginary, and
- complex operands:364)
- -- if one operand is an infinity and the other operand is a nonzero finite number or an
- infinity, then the result of the * operator is an infinity;
- -- if the first operand is an infinity and the second operand is a finite number, then the
- result of the / operator is an infinity;
- -- if the first operand is a finite number and the second operand is an infinity, then the
- result of the / operator is a zero;
-
-
-
-
- 364) These properties are already implied for those cases covered in the tables, but are required for all cases
- (at least where the state for CX_LIMITED_RANGE is ''off'').
-
-[page 530]
-
- -- if the first operand is a nonzero finite number or an infinity and the second operand is
- a zero, then the result of the / operator is an infinity.
-5 If both operands of the * operator are complex or if the second operand of the / operator
- is complex, the operator raises floating-point exceptions if appropriate for the calculation
- of the parts of the result, and may raise spurious floating-point exceptions.
-6 EXAMPLE 1 Multiplication of double _Complex operands could be implemented as follows. Note
- that the imaginary unit I has imaginary type (see G.6).
- #include <math.h>
- #include <complex.h>
- /* Multiply z * w ... */
- double complex _Cmultd(double complex z, double complex w)
- {
- #pragma STDC FP_CONTRACT OFF
- double a, b, c, d, ac, bd, ad, bc, x, y;
- a = creal(z); b = cimag(z);
- c = creal(w); d = cimag(w);
- ac = a * c; bd = b * d;
- ad = a * d; bc = b * c;
- x = ac - bd; y = ad + bc;
- if (isnan(x) && isnan(y)) {
- /* Recover infinities that computed as NaN+iNaN ... */
- int recalc = 0;
- if ( isinf(a) || isinf(b) ) { // z is infinite
- /* "Box" the infinity and change NaNs in the other factor to 0 */
- a = copysign(isinf(a) ? 1.0 : 0.0, a);
- b = copysign(isinf(b) ? 1.0 : 0.0, b);
- if (isnan(c)) c = copysign(0.0, c);
- if (isnan(d)) d = copysign(0.0, d);
- recalc = 1;
- }
- if ( isinf(c) || isinf(d) ) { // w is infinite
- /* "Box" the infinity and change NaNs in the other factor to 0 */
- c = copysign(isinf(c) ? 1.0 : 0.0, c);
- d = copysign(isinf(d) ? 1.0 : 0.0, d);
- if (isnan(a)) a = copysign(0.0, a);
- if (isnan(b)) b = copysign(0.0, b);
- recalc = 1;
- }
- if (!recalc && (isinf(ac) || isinf(bd) ||
- isinf(ad) || isinf(bc))) {
- /* Recover infinities from overflow by changing NaNs to 0 ... */
- if (isnan(a)) a = copysign(0.0, a);
- if (isnan(b)) b = copysign(0.0, b);
- if (isnan(c)) c = copysign(0.0, c);
- if (isnan(d)) d = copysign(0.0, d);
- recalc = 1;
- }
- if (recalc) {
-
-[page 531]
-
- x = INFINITY * ( a * c - b * d );
- y = INFINITY * ( a * d + b * c );
- }
- }
- return x + I * y;
- }
-7 This implementation achieves the required treatment of infinities at the cost of only one isnan test in
- ordinary (finite) cases. It is less than ideal in that undue overflow and underflow may occur.
-
-8 EXAMPLE 2 Division of two double _Complex operands could be implemented as follows.
- #include <math.h>
- #include <complex.h>
- /* Divide z / w ... */
- double complex _Cdivd(double complex z, double complex w)
- {
- #pragma STDC FP_CONTRACT OFF
- double a, b, c, d, logbw, denom, x, y;
- int ilogbw = 0;
- a = creal(z); b = cimag(z);
- c = creal(w); d = cimag(w);
- logbw = logb(fmax(fabs(c), fabs(d)));
- if (logbw == INFINITY) {
- ilogbw = (int)logbw;
- c = scalbn(c, -ilogbw); d = scalbn(d, -ilogbw);
- }
- denom = c * c + d * d;
- x = scalbn((a * c + b * d) / denom, -ilogbw);
- y = scalbn((b * c - a * d) / denom, -ilogbw);
- /* Recover infinities and zeros that computed as NaN+iNaN; */
- /* the only cases are nonzero/zero, infinite/finite, and finite/infinite, ... */
- if (isnan(x) && isnan(y)) {
- if ((denom == 0.0) &&
- (!isnan(a) || !isnan(b))) {
- x = copysign(INFINITY, c) * a;
- y = copysign(INFINITY, c) * b;
- }
- else if ((isinf(a) || isinf(b)) &&
- isfinite(c) && isfinite(d)) {
- a = copysign(isinf(a) ? 1.0 : 0.0, a);
- b = copysign(isinf(b) ? 1.0 : 0.0, b);
- x = INFINITY * ( a * c + b * d );
- y = INFINITY * ( b * c - a * d );
- }
- else if (isinf(logbw) &&
- isfinite(a) && isfinite(b)) {
- c = copysign(isinf(c) ? 1.0 : 0.0, c);
- d = copysign(isinf(d) ? 1.0 : 0.0, d);
- x = 0.0 * ( a * c + b * d );
- y = 0.0 * ( b * c - a * d );
-
-[page 532]
-
- }
- }
- return x + I * y;
- }
-9 Scaling the denominator alleviates the main overflow and underflow problem, which is more serious than
- for multiplication. In the spirit of the multiplication example above, this code does not defend against
- overflow and underflow in the calculation of the numerator. Scaling with the scalbn function, instead of
- with division, provides better roundoff characteristics.
-
- G.5.2 Additive operators
- Semantics
-1 If both operands have imaginary type, then the result has imaginary type. (If one operand
- has real type and the other operand has imaginary type, or if either operand has complex
- type, then the result has complex type.)
-2 In all cases the result and floating-point exception behavior of a + or - operator is defined
- by the usual mathematical formula:
- + or - u iv u + iv
-
- x x(+-)u x (+-) iv (x (+-) u) (+-) iv
-
- iy (+-)u + iy i(y (+-) v) (+-)u + i(y (+-) v)
-
- x + iy (x (+-) u) + iy x + i(y (+-) v) (x (+-) u) + i(y (+-) v)
- G.6 Complex arithmetic <complex.h>
-1 The macros
- imaginary
- and
- _Imaginary_I
- are defined, respectively, as _Imaginary and a constant expression of type const
- float _Imaginary with the value of the imaginary unit. The macro
- I
- is defined to be _Imaginary_I (not _Complex_I as stated in 7.3). Notwithstanding
- the provisions of 7.1.3, a program may undefine and then perhaps redefine the macro
- imaginary.
-2 This subclause contains specifications for the <complex.h> functions that are
- particularly suited to IEC 60559 implementations. For families of functions, the
- specifications apply to all of the functions even though only the principal function is
-
-[page 533]
-
- shown. Unless otherwise specified, where the symbol ''(+-)'' occurs in both an argument
- and the result, the result has the same sign as the argument.
-3 The functions are continuous onto both sides of their branch cuts, taking into account the
- sign of zero. For example, csqrt(-2 (+-) i0) = (+-)i(sqrt)2. -
-4 Since complex and imaginary values are composed of real values, each function may be
- regarded as computing real values from real values. Except as noted, the functions treat
- real infinities, NaNs, signed zeros, subnormals, and the floating-point exception flags in a
- manner consistent with the specifications for real functions in F.10.365)
-5 The functions cimag, conj, cproj, and creal are fully specified for all
- implementations, including IEC 60559 ones, in 7.3.9. These functions raise no floating-
- point exceptions.
-6 Each of the functions cabs and carg is specified by a formula in terms of a real
- function (whose special cases are covered in annex F):
- cabs(x + iy) = hypot(x, y)
- carg(x + iy) = atan2(y, x)
-7 Each of the functions casin, catan, ccos, csin, and ctan is specified implicitly by
- a formula in terms of other complex functions (whose special cases are specified below):
- casin(z) = -i casinh(iz)
- catan(z) = -i catanh(iz)
- ccos(z) = ccosh(iz)
- csin(z) = -i csinh(iz)
- ctan(z) = -i ctanh(iz)
-8 For the other functions, the following subclauses specify behavior for special cases,
- including treatment of the ''invalid'' and ''divide-by-zero'' floating-point exceptions. For
- families of functions, the specifications apply to all of the functions even though only the
- principal function is shown. For a function f satisfying f (conj(z)) = conj( f (z)), the
- specifications for the upper half-plane imply the specifications for the lower half-plane; if
- the function f is also either even, f (-z) = f (z), or odd, f (-z) = - f (z), then the
- specifications for the first quadrant imply the specifications for the other three quadrants.
-9 In the following subclauses, cis(y) is defined as cos(y) + i sin(y).
-
-
-
-
- 365) As noted in G.3, a complex value with at least one infinite part is regarded as an infinity even if its
- other part is a NaN.

- G.7 Type-generic math <tgmath.h>
-1 Type-generic macros that accept complex arguments also accept imaginary arguments. If
- an argument is imaginary, the macro expands to an expression whose type is real,
- imaginary, or complex, as appropriate for the particular function: if the argument is
- imaginary, then the types of cos, cosh, fabs, carg, cimag, and creal are real; the
- types of sin, tan, sinh, tanh, asin, atan, asinh, and atanh are imaginary; and
- the types of the others are complex.
-2 Given an imaginary argument, each of the type-generic macros cos, sin, tan, cosh,
- sinh, tanh, asin, atan, asinh, atanh is specified by a formula in terms of real
- functions:
- cos(iy) = cosh(y)
- sin(iy) = i sinh(y)
- tan(iy) = i tanh(y)

- Annex H
- (informative)
- Language independent arithmetic
- H.1 Introduction
-1 This annex documents the extent to which the C language supports the ISO/IEC 10967-1
- standard for language-independent arithmetic (LIA-1). LIA-1 is more general than
- IEC 60559 (annex F) in that it covers integer and diverse floating-point arithmetics.
- H.2 Types
-1 The relevant C arithmetic types meet the requirements of LIA-1 types if an
- implementation adds notification of exceptional arithmetic operations and meets the 1
- unit in the last place (ULP) accuracy requirement (LIA-1 subclause 5.2.8).
- H.2.1 Boolean type
-1 The LIA-1 data type Boolean is implemented by the C data type bool with values of
- true and false, all from <stdbool.h>.
- H.2.2 Integer types
-1 The signed C integer types int, long int, long long int, and the corresponding
- unsigned types are compatible with LIA-1. If an implementation adds support for the
- LIA-1 exceptional values ''integer_overflow'' and ''undefined'', then those types are
- LIA-1 conformant types. C's unsigned integer types are ''modulo'' in the LIA-1 sense
- in that overflows or out-of-bounds results silently wrap. An implementation that defines
- signed integer types as also being modulo need not detect integer overflow, in which case,
- only integer divide-by-zero need be detected.
-2 The parameters for the integer data types can be accessed by the following:
- maxint INT_MAX, LONG_MAX, LLONG_MAX, UINT_MAX, ULONG_MAX,
- ULLONG_MAX
- minint INT_MIN, LONG_MIN, LLONG_MIN
-3 The parameter ''bounded'' is always true, and is not provided. The parameter ''minint''
- is always 0 for the unsigned types, and is not provided for those types.
-
-[page 542]
-
- H.2.2.1 Integer operations
-1 The integer operations on integer types are the following:
- addI x + y
- subI x - y
- mulI x * y
- divI, divtI x / y
- remI, remtI x % y
- negI -x
- absI abs(x), labs(x), llabs(x)
- eqI x == y
- neqI x != y
- lssI x < y
- leqI x <= y
- gtrI x > y
- geqI x >= y
- where x and y are expressions of the same integer type.
- H.2.3 Floating-point types
-1 The C floating-point types float, double, and long double are compatible with
- LIA-1. If an implementation adds support for the LIA-1 exceptional values
- ''underflow'', ''floating_overflow'', and ''"undefined'', then those types are conformant
- with LIA-1. An implementation that uses IEC 60559 floating-point formats and
- operations (see annex F) along with IEC 60559 status flags and traps has LIA-1
- conformant types.
- H.2.3.1 Floating-point parameters
-1 The parameters for a floating point data type can be accessed by the following:
- r FLT_RADIX
- p FLT_MANT_DIG, DBL_MANT_DIG, LDBL_MANT_DIG
- emax FLT_MAX_EXP, DBL_MAX_EXP, LDBL_MAX_EXP
- emin FLT_MIN_EXP, DBL_MIN_EXP, LDBL_MIN_EXP
-2 The derived constants for the floating point types are accessed by the following:
-
-[page 543]
-
- fmax FLT_MAX, DBL_MAX, LDBL_MAX
- fminN FLT_MIN, DBL_MIN, LDBL_MIN
- epsilon FLT_EPSILON, DBL_EPSILON, LDBL_EPSILON
- rnd_style FLT_ROUNDS
- H.2.3.2 Floating-point operations
-1 The floating-point operations on floating-point types are the following:
- addF x + y
- subF x - y
- mulF x * y
- divF x / y
- negF -x
- absF fabsf(x), fabs(x), fabsl(x)
- exponentF 1.f+logbf(x), 1.0+logb(x), 1.L+logbl(x)
- scaleF scalbnf(x, n), scalbn(x, n), scalbnl(x, n),
- scalblnf(x, li), scalbln(x, li), scalblnl(x, li)
- intpartF modff(x, &y), modf(x, &y), modfl(x, &y)
- fractpartF modff(x, &y), modf(x, &y), modfl(x, &y)
- eqF x == y
- neqF x != y
- lssF x < y
- leqF x <= y
- gtrF x > y
- geqF x >= y
- where x and y are expressions of the same floating point type, n is of type int, and li
- is of type long int.
- H.2.3.3 Rounding styles
-1 The C Standard requires all floating types to use the same radix and rounding style, so
- that only one identifier for each is provided to map to LIA-1.
-2 The FLT_ROUNDS parameter can be used to indicate the LIA-1 rounding styles:
- truncate FLT_ROUNDS == 0
-
-[page 544]
-
- nearest FLT_ROUNDS == 1
- other FLT_ROUNDS != 0 && FLT_ROUNDS != 1
- provided that an implementation extends FLT_ROUNDS to cover the rounding style used
- in all relevant LIA-1 operations, not just addition as in C.
- H.2.4 Type conversions
-1 The LIA-1 type conversions are the following type casts:
- cvtI' -> I (int)i, (long int)i, (long long int)i,
- (unsigned int)i, (unsigned long int)i,
- (unsigned long long int)i
- cvtF -> I (int)x, (long int)x, (long long int)x,
- (unsigned int)x, (unsigned long int)x,
- (unsigned long long int)x
- cvtI -> F (float)i, (double)i, (long double)i
- cvtF' -> F (float)x, (double)x, (long double)x
-2 In the above conversions from floating to integer, the use of (cast)x can be replaced with
- (cast)round(x), (cast)rint(x), (cast)nearbyint(x), (cast)trunc(x),
- (cast)ceil(x), or (cast)floor(x). In addition, C's floating-point to integer
- conversion functions, lrint(), llrint(), lround(), and llround(), can be
- used. They all meet LIA-1's requirements on floating to integer rounding for in-range
- values. For out-of-range values, the conversions shall silently wrap for the modulo types.
-3 The fmod() function is useful for doing silent wrapping to unsigned integer types, e.g.,
- fmod( fabs(rint(x)), 65536.0 ) or (0.0 <= (y = fmod( rint(x),
- 65536.0 )) ? y : 65536.0 + y) will compute an integer value in the range 0.0
- to 65535.0 which can then be cast to unsigned short int. But, the
- remainder() function is not useful for doing silent wrapping to signed integer types,
- e.g., remainder( rint(x), 65536.0 ) will compute an integer value in the
- range -32767.0 to +32768.0 which is not, in general, in the range of signed short
- int.
-4 C's conversions (casts) from floating-point to floating-point can meet LIA-1
- requirements if an implementation uses round-to-nearest (IEC 60559 default).
-5 C's conversions (casts) from integer to floating-point can meet LIA-1 requirements if an
- implementation uses round-to-nearest.
-
-[page 545]
-
- H.3 Notification
-1 Notification is the process by which a user or program is informed that an exceptional
- arithmetic operation has occurred. C's operations are compatible with LIA-1 in that C
- allows an implementation to cause a notification to occur when any arithmetic operation
- returns an exceptional value as defined in LIA-1 clause 5.
- H.3.1 Notification alternatives
-1 LIA-1 requires at least the following two alternatives for handling of notifications:
- setting indicators or trap-and-terminate. LIA-1 allows a third alternative: trap-and-
- resume.
-2 An implementation need only support a given notification alternative for the entire
- program. An implementation may support the ability to switch between notification
- alternatives during execution, but is not required to do so. An implementation can
- provide separate selection for each kind of notification, but this is not required.
-3 C allows an implementation to provide notification. C's SIGFPE (for traps) and
- FE_INVALID, FE_DIVBYZERO, FE_OVERFLOW, FE_UNDERFLOW (for indicators)
- can provide LIA-1 notification.
-4 C's signal handlers are compatible with LIA-1. Default handling of SIGFPE can
- provide trap-and-terminate behavior, except for those LIA-1 operations implemented by
- math library function calls. User-provided signal handlers for SIGFPE allow for trap-
- and-resume behavior with the same constraint.
- H.3.1.1 Indicators
-1 C's <fenv.h> status flags are compatible with the LIA-1 indicators.
-2 The following mapping is for floating-point types:
- undefined FE_INVALID, FE_DIVBYZERO
- floating_overflow FE_OVERFLOW
- underflow FE_UNDERFLOW
-3 The floating-point indicator interrogation and manipulation operations are:
- set_indicators feraiseexcept(i)
- clear_indicators feclearexcept(i)
- test_indicators fetestexcept(i)
- current_indicators fetestexcept(FE_ALL_EXCEPT)
- where i is an expression of type int representing a subset of the LIA-1 indicators.
-4 C allows an implementation to provide the following LIA-1 required behavior: at
- program termination if any indicator is set the implementation shall send an unambiguous
-
-[page 546]
-
- and ''hard to ignore'' message (see LIA-1 subclause 6.1.2)
-5 LIA-1 does not make the distinction between floating-point and integer for ''undefined''.
- This documentation makes that distinction because <fenv.h> covers only the floating-
- point indicators.
- H.3.1.2 Traps
-1 C is compatible with LIA-1's trap requirements for arithmetic operations, but not for
- math library functions (which are not permitted to invoke a user's signal handler for
- SIGFPE). An implementation can provide an alternative of notification through
- termination with a ''hard-to-ignore'' message (see LIA-1 subclause 6.1.3).
-2 LIA-1 does not require that traps be precise.
-3 C does require that SIGFPE be the signal corresponding to LIA-1 arithmetic exceptions,
- if there is any signal raised for them.
-4 C supports signal handlers for SIGFPE and allows trapping of LIA-1 arithmetic
- exceptions. When LIA-1 arithmetic exceptions do trap, C's signal-handler mechanism
- allows trap-and-terminate (either default implementation behavior or user replacement for
- it) or trap-and-resume, at the programmer's option.

- Annex K
- (normative)
- Bounds-checking interfaces
- K.1 Background
-1 Traditionally, the C Library has contained many functions that trust the programmer to
- provide output character arrays big enough to hold the result being produced. Not only
- do these functions not check that the arrays are big enough, they frequently lack the
- information needed to perform such checks. While it is possible to write safe, robust, and
- error-free code using the existing library, the library tends to promote programming styles
- that lead to mysterious failures if a result is too big for the provided array.
-2 A common programming style is to declare character arrays large enough to handle most
- practical cases. However, if these arrays are not large enough to handle the resulting
- strings, data can be written past the end of the array overwriting other data and program
- structures. The program never gets any indication that a problem exists, and so never has
- a chance to recover or to fail gracefully.
-3 Worse, this style of programming has compromised the security of computers and
- networks. Buffer overflows can often be exploited to run arbitrary code with the
- permissions of the vulnerable (defective) program.
-4 If the programmer writes runtime checks to verify lengths before calling library
- functions, then those runtime checks frequently duplicate work done inside the library
- functions, which discover string lengths as a side effect of doing their job.
-5 This annex provides alternative library functions that promote safer, more secure
- programming. The alternative functions verify that output buffers are large enough for
- the intended result and return a failure indicator if they are not. Data is never written past
- the end of an array. All string results are null terminated.
-6 This annex also addresses another problem that complicates writing robust code:
- functions that are not reentrant because they return pointers to static objects owned by the
- function. Such functions can be troublesome since a previously returned result can
- change if the function is called again, perhaps by another thread.
-
-[page 578]
-
- K.2 Scope
-1 This annex specifies a series of optional extensions that can be useful in the mitigation of
- security vulnerabilities in programs, and comprise new functions, macros, and types
- declared or defined in existing standard headers.
-2 An implementation that defines __STDC_LIB_EXT1__ shall conform to the
- specifications in this annex.367)
-3 Subclause K.3 should be read as if it were merged into the parallel structure of named
- subclauses of clause 7.
- K.3 Library
- K.3.1 Introduction
- K.3.1.1 Standard headers
-1 The functions, macros, and types declared or defined in K.3 and its subclauses are not
- declared or defined by their respective headers if __STDC_WANT_LIB_EXT1__ is
- defined as a macro which expands to the integer constant 0 at the point in the source file
- where the appropriate header is first included.
-2 The functions, macros, and types declared or defined in K.3 and its subclauses are
- declared and defined by their respective headers if __STDC_WANT_LIB_EXT1__ is
- defined as a macro which expands to the integer constant 1 at the point in the source file
- where the appropriate header is first included.368)
-3 It is implementation-defined whether the functions, macros, and types declared or defined
- in K.3 and its subclauses are declared or defined by their respective headers if
- __STDC_WANT_LIB_EXT1__ is not defined as a macro at the point in the source file
- where the appropriate header is first included.369)
-4 Within a preprocessing translation unit, __STDC_WANT_LIB_EXT1__ shall be
- defined identically for all inclusions of any headers from subclause K.3. If
- __STDC_WANT_LIB_EXT1__ is defined differently for any such inclusion, the
- implementation shall issue a diagnostic as if a preprocessor error directive were used.
-
-
- 367) Implementations that do not define __STDC_LIB_EXT1__ are not required to conform to these
- specifications.
- 368) Future revisions of this International Standard may define meanings for other values of
- __STDC_WANT_LIB_EXT1__.
- 369) Subclause 7.1.3 reserves certain names and patterns of names that an implementation may use in
- headers. All other names are not reserved, and a conforming implementation is not permitted to use
- them. While some of the names defined in K.3 and its subclauses are reserved, others are not. If an
- unreserved name is defined in a header when __STDC_WANT_LIB_EXT1__ is defined as 0, the
- implementation is not conforming.
-
-[page 579]
-
- K.3.1.2 Reserved identifiers
-1 Each macro name in any of the following subclauses is reserved for use as specified if it
- is defined by any of its associated headers when included; unless explicitly stated
- otherwise (see 7.1.4).
-2 All identifiers with external linkage in any of the following subclauses are reserved for
- use as identifiers with external linkage if any of them are used by the program. None of
- them are reserved if none of them are used.
-3 Each identifier with file scope listed in any of the following subclauses is reserved for use
- as a macro name and as an identifier with file scope in the same name space if it is
- defined by any of its associated headers when included.
- K.3.1.3 Use of errno
-1 An implementation may set errno for the functions defined in this annex, but is not
- required to.
- K.3.1.4 Runtime-constraint violations
-1 Most functions in this annex include as part of their specification a list of runtime-
- constraints. These runtime-constraints are requirements on the program using the
- library.370)
-2 Implementations shall verify that the runtime-constraints for a function are not violated
- by the program. If a runtime-constraint is violated, the implementation shall call the
- currently registered runtime-constraint handler (see set_constraint_handler_s
- in <stdlib.h>). Multiple runtime-constraint violations in the same call to a library
- function result in only one call to the runtime-constraint handler. It is unspecified which
- one of the multiple runtime-constraint violations cause the handler to be called.
-3 If the runtime-constraints section for a function states an action to be performed when a
- runtime-constraint violation occurs, the function shall perform the action before calling
- the runtime-constraint handler. If the runtime-constraints section lists actions that are
- prohibited when a runtime-constraint violation occurs, then such actions are prohibited to
- the function both before calling the handler and after the handler returns.
-4 The runtime-constraint handler might not return. If the handler does return, the library
- function whose runtime-constraint was violated shall return some indication of failure as
- given by the returns section in the function's specification.
-
-
-
- 370) Although runtime-constraints replace many cases of undefined behavior, undefined behavior still
- exists in this annex. Implementations are free to detect any case of undefined behavior and treat it as a
- runtime-constraint violation by calling the runtime-constraint handler. This license comes directly
- from the definition of undefined behavior.
-
-[page 580]
-
- K.3.2 Errors <errno.h>
-1 The header <errno.h> defines a type.
-2 The type is
- errno_t
- which is type int.371)
- K.3.3 Common definitions <stddef.h>
-1 The header <stddef.h> defines a type.
-2 The type is
- rsize_t
- which is the type size_t.372)
- K.3.4 Integer types <stdint.h>
-1 The header <stdint.h> defines a macro.
-2 The macro is
- RSIZE_MAX
- which expands to a value373) of type size_t. Functions that have parameters of type
- rsize_t consider it a runtime-constraint violation if the values of those parameters are
- greater than RSIZE_MAX.
- Recommended practice
-3 Extremely large object sizes are frequently a sign that an object's size was calculated
- incorrectly. For example, negative numbers appear as very large positive numbers when
- converted to an unsigned type like size_t. Also, some implementations do not support
- objects as large as the maximum value that can be represented by type size_t.
-4 For those reasons, it is sometimes beneficial to restrict the range of object sizes to detect
- programming errors. For implementations targeting machines with large address spaces,
- it is recommended that RSIZE_MAX be defined as the smaller of the size of the largest
- object supported or (SIZE_MAX >> 1), even if this limit is smaller than the size of
- some legitimate, but very large, objects. Implementations targeting machines with small
- address spaces may wish to define RSIZE_MAX as SIZE_MAX, which means that there
-
- 371) As a matter of programming style, errno_t may be used as the type of something that deals only
- with the values that might be found in errno. For example, a function which returns the value of
- errno might be declared as having the return type errno_t.
- 372) See the description of the RSIZE_MAX macro in <stdint.h>.
- 373) The macro RSIZE_MAX need not expand to a constant expression.
-
-[page 581]
-
- is no object size that is considered a runtime-constraint violation.
- K.3.5 Input/output <stdio.h>
-1 The header <stdio.h> defines several macros and two types.
-2 The macros are
- L_tmpnam_s
- which expands to an integer constant expression that is the size needed for an array of
- char large enough to hold a temporary file name string generated by the tmpnam_s
- function;
- TMP_MAX_S
- which expands to an integer constant expression that is the maximum number of unique
- file names that can be generated by the tmpnam_s function.
-3 The types are
- errno_t
- which is type int; and
- rsize_t
- which is the type size_t.
- K.3.5.1 Operations on files
- K.3.5.1.1 The tmpfile_s function
- Synopsis
-1 #define __STDC_WANT_LIB_EXT1__ 1
- #include <stdio.h>
- errno_t tmpfile_s(FILE * restrict * restrict streamptr);
- Runtime-constraints
-2 streamptr shall not be a null pointer.
-3 If there is a runtime-constraint violation, tmpfile_s does not attempt to create a file.
- Description
-4 The tmpfile_s function creates a temporary binary file that is different from any other
- existing file and 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
- with the meaning that mode has in the fopen_s function (including the mode's effect
- on exclusive access and file permissions).
-
-[page 582]
-
-5 If the file was created successfully, then the pointer to FILE pointed to by streamptr
- will be set to the pointer to the object controlling the opened file. Otherwise, the pointer
- to FILE pointed to by streamptr will be set to a null pointer.
- Recommended practice
- It should be possible to open at least TMP_MAX_S temporary files during the lifetime of
- the program (this limit may be shared with tmpnam_s) and there should be no limit on
- the number simultaneously open other than this limit and any limit on the number of open
- files (FOPEN_MAX).
- Returns
-6 The tmpfile_s function returns zero if it created the file. If it did not create the file or
- there was a runtime-constraint violation, tmpfile_s returns a nonzero value.
- K.3.5.1.2 The tmpnam_s function
- Synopsis
-1 #define __STDC_WANT_LIB_EXT1__ 1
- #include <stdio.h>
- errno_t tmpnam_s(char *s, rsize_t maxsize);
- Runtime-constraints
-2 s shall not be a null pointer. maxsize shall be less than or equal to RSIZE_MAX.
- maxsize shall be greater than the length of the generated file name string.
- Description
-3 The tmpnam_s function generates a string that is a valid file name and that is not the
- same as the name of an existing file.374) The function is potentially capable of generating
- TMP_MAX_S different strings, but any or all of them may already be in use by existing
- files and thus not be suitable return values. The lengths of these strings shall be less than
- the value of the L_tmpnam_s macro.
-4 The tmpnam_s function generates a different string each time it is called.
-5 It is assumed that s points to an array of at least maxsize characters. This array will be
- set to generated string, as specified below.
-
-
-
- 374) Files created using strings generated by the tmpnam_s 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. Implementations should take care in choosing the patterns
- used for names returned by tmpnam_s. For example, making a thread id part of the names avoids the
- race condition and possible conflict when multiple programs run simultaneously by the same user
- generate the same temporary file names.
-
-[page 583]
-
-6 The implementation shall behave as if no library function except tmpnam calls the
- tmpnam_s function.375)
- Recommended practice
-7 After a program obtains a file name using the tmpnam_s function and before the
- program creates a file with that name, the possibility exists that someone else may create
- a file with that same name. To avoid this race condition, the tmpfile_s function
- should be used instead of tmpnam_s when possible. One situation that requires the use
- of the tmpnam_s function is when the program needs to create a temporary directory
- rather than a temporary file.
- Returns
-8 If no suitable string can be generated, or if there is a runtime-constraint violation, the
- tmpnam_s function writes a null character to s[0] (only if s is not null and maxsize
- is greater than zero) and returns a nonzero value.
-9 Otherwise, the tmpnam_s function writes the string in the array pointed to by s and
- returns zero.
- Environmental limits
-10 The value of the macro TMP_MAX_S shall be at least 25.
- K.3.5.2 File access functions
- K.3.5.2.1 The fopen_s function
- Synopsis
-1 #define __STDC_WANT_LIB_EXT1__ 1
- #include <stdio.h>
- errno_t fopen_s(FILE * restrict * restrict streamptr,
- const char * restrict filename,
- const char * restrict mode);
- Runtime-constraints
-2 None of streamptr, filename, or mode shall be a null pointer.
-3 If there is a runtime-constraint violation, fopen_s does not attempt to open a file.
- Furthermore, if streamptr is not a null pointer, fopen_s sets *streamptr to the
- null pointer.
-
-
-
-
- 375) An implementation may have tmpnam call tmpnam_s (perhaps so there is only one naming
- convention for temporary files), but this is not required.
-
-[page 584]
-
- Description
-4 The fopen_s function opens the file whose name is the string pointed to by
- filename, and associates a stream with it.
-5 The mode string shall be as described for fopen, with the addition that modes starting
- with the character 'w' or 'a' may be preceded by the character 'u', see below:
- uw truncate to zero length or create text file for writing, default
- permissions
- uwx create text file for writing, default permissions
- ua append; open or create text file for writing at end-of-file, default
- permissions
- uwb truncate to zero length or create binary file for writing, default
- permissions
- uwbx create binary file for writing, default permissions
- uab append; open or create binary file for writing at end-of-file, default
- permissions
- uw+ truncate to zero length or create text file for update, default
- permissions
- uw+x create text file for update, default permissions
- ua+ append; open or create text file for update, writing at end-of-file,
- default permissions
- uw+b or uwb+ truncate to zero length or create binary file for update, default
- permissions
- uw+bx or uwb+x create binary file for update, default permissions
- ua+b or uab+ append; open or create binary file for update, writing at end-of-file,
- default permissions
-6 Opening a file with exclusive mode ('x' as the last character in the mode argument)
- fails if the file already exists or cannot be created.
-7 To the extent that the underlying system supports the concepts, files opened for writing
- shall be opened with exclusive (also known as non-shared) access. If the file is being
- created, and the first character of the mode string is not 'u', to the extent that the
- underlying system supports it, the file shall have a file permission that prevents other
- users on the system from accessing the file. If the file is being created and first character
- of the mode string is 'u', then by the time the file has been closed, it shall have the
- system default file access permissions.376)
-8 If the file was opened successfully, then the pointer to FILE pointed to by streamptr
- will be set to the pointer to the object controlling the opened file. Otherwise, the pointer
-
-
- 376) These are the same permissions that the file would have been created with by fopen.
-
-[page 585]
-
- to FILE pointed to by streamptr will be set to a null pointer.
- Returns
-9 The fopen_s function returns zero if it opened the file. If it did not open the file or if
- there was a runtime-constraint violation, fopen_s returns a nonzero value.
- K.3.5.2.2 The freopen_s function
- Synopsis
-1 #define __STDC_WANT_LIB_EXT1__ 1
- #include <stdio.h>
- errno_t freopen_s(FILE * restrict * restrict newstreamptr,
- const char * restrict filename,
- const char * restrict mode,
- FILE * restrict stream);
- Runtime-constraints
-2 None of newstreamptr, mode, and stream shall be a null pointer.
-3 If there is a runtime-constraint violation, freopen_s neither attempts to close any file
- associated with stream nor attempts to open a file. Furthermore, if newstreamptr is
- not a null pointer, fopen_s sets *newstreamptr to the null pointer.
- Description
-4 The freopen_s 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 has the same meaning as in the fopen_s function (including the mode's effect
- on exclusive access and file permissions).
-5 If filename is a null pointer, the freopen_s function attempts to change the mode of
- the stream to that specified by mode, as if the name of the file currently associated with
- the stream had been used. It is implementation-defined which changes of mode are
- permitted (if any), and under what circumstances.
-6 The freopen_s function first attempts to close any file that is associated with stream.
- Failure to close the file is ignored. The error and end-of-file indicators for the stream are
- cleared.
-7 If the file was opened successfully, then the pointer to FILE pointed to by
- newstreamptr will be set to the value of stream. Otherwise, the pointer to FILE
- pointed to by newstreamptr will be set to a null pointer.
- Returns
-8 The freopen_s function returns zero if it opened the file. If it did not open the file or
- there was a runtime-constraint violation, freopen_s returns a nonzero value.

- K.3.5.3 Formatted input/output functions
-1 Unless explicitly stated otherwise, if the execution of a function described in this

- #include <stdio.h>
- int fprintf_s(FILE * restrict stream,

- Runtime-constraints
-2 Neither stream nor format shall be a null pointer. The %n specifier377) (modified or
- not by flags, field width, or precision) shall not appear in the string pointed to by
- format. Any argument to fprintf_s corresponding to a %s specifier shall not be a
- null pointer.
-3 If there is a runtime-constraint violation,378) the fprintf_s function does not attempt
- to produce further output, and it is unspecified to what extent fprintf_s produced
- output before discovering the runtime-constraint violation.
- Description
-4 The fprintf_s function is equivalent to the fprintf function except for the explicit
- runtime-constraints listed above.
- Returns
-5 The fprintf_s function returns the number of characters transmitted, or a negative
- value if an output error, encoding error, or runtime-constraint violation occurred.
-
-
-
-
- 377) It is not a runtime-constraint violation for the characters %n to appear in sequence in the string pointed
- at by format when those characters are not a interpreted as a %n specifier. For example, if the entire

- 378) Because an implementation may treat any undefined behavior as a runtime-constraint violation, an
- implementation may treat any unsupported specifiers in the string pointed to by format as a runtime-
- constraint violation.

- K.3.5.3.2 The fscanf_s function
- Synopsis

- Runtime-constraints
-2 Neither stream nor format shall be a null pointer. Any argument indirected though in
- order to store converted input shall not be a null pointer.
-3 If there is a runtime-constraint violation,379) the fscanf_s function does not attempt to
- perform further input, and it is unspecified to what extent fscanf_s performed input
- before discovering the runtime-constraint violation.
- Description
-4 The fscanf_s function is equivalent to fscanf except that the c, s, and [ conversion
- specifiers apply to a pair of arguments (unless assignment suppression is indicated by a
- *). The first of these arguments is the same as for fscanf. That argument is
- immediately followed in the argument list by the second argument, which has type
- rsize_t and gives the number of elements in the array pointed to by the first argument
- of the pair. If the first argument points to a scalar object, it is considered to be an array of
- one element.380)
-5 A matching failure occurs if the number of elements in a receiving object is insufficient to
- hold the converted input (including any trailing null character).
- Returns
-6 The fscanf_s function returns the value of the macro EOF if an input failure occurs
- before any conversion or if there is a runtime-constraint violation. Otherwise, the

- 379) Because an implementation may treat any undefined behavior as a runtime-constraint violation, an
- implementation may treat any unsupported specifiers in the string pointed to by format as a runtime-
- constraint violation.
- 380) If the format is known at translation time, an implementation may issue a diagnostic for any argument
- used to store the result from a c, s, or [ conversion specifier if that argument is not followed by an
- argument of a type compatible with rsize_t. A limited amount of checking may be done if even if
- the format is not known at translation time. For example, an implementation may issue a diagnostic
- for each argument after format that has of type pointer to one of char, signed char,
- unsigned char, or void that is not followed by an argument of a type compatible with
- rsize_t. The diagnostic could warn that unless the pointer is being used with a conversion specifier
- using the hh length modifier, a length argument must follow the pointer argument. Another useful
- diagnostic could flag any non-pointer argument following format that did not have a type
- compatible with rsize_t.

- explicit runtime-constraints listed above.
-5 The snprintf_s function, unlike sprintf_s, will truncate the result to fit within the
- array pointed to by s.
- Returns
-6 The snprintf_s function returns the number of characters that would have been
- written had n been sufficiently large, not counting the terminating null character, or a
- negative value if a runtime-constraint violation occurred. Thus, the null-terminated
- output has been completely written if and only if the returned value is nonnegative and
- less than n.
- K.3.5.3.6 The sprintf_s function

- #include <stdio.h>
- int sprintf_s(char * restrict s, rsize_t n,
- const char * restrict format, ...);
- Runtime-constraints
-2 Neither s nor format shall be a null pointer. n shall neither equal zero nor be greater
- than RSIZE_MAX. The number of characters (including the trailing null) required for the
- result to be written to the array pointed to by s shall not be greater than n. The %n
- specifier383) (modified or not by flags, field width, or precision) shall not appear in the
- string pointed to by format. Any argument to sprintf_s corresponding to a %s
- specifier shall not be a null pointer. No encoding error shall occur.
-
-
-
- 382) It is not a runtime-constraint violation for the characters %n to appear in sequence in the string pointed
- at by format when those characters are not a interpreted as a %n specifier. For example, if the entire
- format string was %%n.
- 383) It is not a runtime-constraint violation for the characters %n to appear in sequence in the string pointed

-[page 591]
-
-3 If there is a runtime-constraint violation, then if s is not a null pointer and n is greater
- than zero and less than RSIZE_MAX, then the sprintf_s function sets s[0] to the
- null character.
- Description
-4 The sprintf_s function is equivalent to the sprintf function except for the
- parameter n and the explicit runtime-constraints listed above.
-5 The sprintf_s function, unlike snprintf_s, treats a result too big for the array
- pointed to by s as a runtime-constraint violation.
- Returns
-6 If no runtime-constraint violation occurred, the sprintf_s function returns the number
- of characters written in the array, not counting the terminating null character. If an
- encoding error occurred, sprintf_s returns a negative value. If any other runtime-
- constraint violation occurred, sprintf_s returns zero.

- Runtime-constraints
-2 Neither s nor format shall be a null pointer. Any argument indirected though in order
- to store converted input shall not be a null pointer.
-3 If there is a runtime-constraint violation, the sscanf_s function does not attempt to
- perform further input, and it is unspecified to what extent sscanf_s performed input
- before discovering the runtime-constraint violation.
- Description
-4 The sscanf_s function is equivalent to fscanf_s, except that input is obtained from
- a string (specified by the argument s) rather than from a stream. Reaching the end of the
- string is equivalent to encountering end-of-file for the fscanf_s function. If copying
- takes place between objects that overlap, the objects take on unspecified values.
- Returns
-5 The sscanf_s function returns the value of the macro EOF if an input failure occurs
- before any conversion or if there is a runtime-constraint violation. Otherwise, the
- sscanf_s 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.

-2 s shall not be a null pointer. n shall neither be equal to zero nor be greater than

- n-1 characters from stdin.391)
-3 If there is a runtime-constraint violation, s[0] is set to the null character, and characters
- are read and discarded from stdin until a new-line character is read, or end-of-file or a
- read error occurs.
- Description
-4 The gets_s function reads at most one less than the number of characters specified by n
- from the stream pointed to by stdin, into the array pointed to by s. No additional
- characters are read after a new-line character (which is discarded) or after end-of-file.
- The discarded new-line character does not count towards number of characters read. A
- null character is written immediately after the last character read into the array.
-5 If end-of-file is encountered and no characters have been read into the array, or if a read
- error occurs during the operation, then s[0] is set to the null character, and the other
- elements of s take unspecified values.
- Recommended practice
-6 The fgets function allows properly-written programs to safely process input lines too
- long to store in the result array. In general this requires that callers of fgets pay
- attention to the presence or absence of a new-line character in the result array. Consider
- using fgets (along with any needed processing based on new-line characters) instead of
- gets_s.
- Returns
-7 The gets_s function returns s if successful. If there was a runtime-constraint violation,
- or if end-of-file is encountered and no characters have been read into the array, or if a
- read error occurs during the operation, then a null pointer is returned.
-
-
-
-
- 391) The gets_s function, unlike the historical gets function, makes it a runtime-constraint violation for
- a line of input to overflow the buffer to store it. Unlike the fgets function, gets_s maintains a
- one-to-one relationship between input lines and successful calls to gets_s. Programs that use gets
- expect such a relationship.

- K.3.6 General utilities <stdlib.h>
-1 The header <stdlib.h> defines three types.
-2 The types are
- errno_t
- which is type int; and
- rsize_t
- which is the type size_t; and
- constraint_handler_t
- which has the following definition
- typedef void (*constraint_handler_t)(
- const char * restrict msg,
- void * restrict ptr,
- errno_t error);
- K.3.6.1 Runtime-constraint handling
- K.3.6.1.1 The set_constraint_handler_s function
- Synopsis
-1 #define __STDC_WANT_LIB_EXT1__ 1
- #include <stdlib.h>
- constraint_handler_t set_constraint_handler_s(
- constraint_handler_t handler);
- Description
-2 The set_constraint_handler_s function sets the runtime-constraint handler to
- be handler. The runtime-constraint handler is the function to be called when a library
- function detects a runtime-constraint violation. Only the most recent handler registered
- with set_constraint_handler_s is called when a runtime-constraint violation
- occurs.
-3 When the handler is called, it is passed the following arguments in the following order:
- 1. A pointer to a character string describing the runtime-constraint violation.
- 2. A null pointer or a pointer to an implementation defined object.
- 3. If the function calling the handler has a return type declared as errno_t, the
- return value of the function is passed. Otherwise, a positive value of type
- errno_t is passed.
-
-[page 600]
-
-4 The implementation has a default constraint handler that is used if no calls to the
- set_constraint_handler_s function have been made. The behavior of the
- default handler is implementation-defined, and it may cause the program to exit or abort.
-5 If the handler argument to set_constraint_handler_s is a null pointer, the
- implementation default handler becomes the current constraint handler.
- Returns
-6 The set_constraint_handler_s function returns a pointer to the previously
- registered handler.392)
- K.3.6.1.2 The abort_handler_s function
- Synopsis
-1 #define __STDC_WANT_LIB_EXT1__ 1
- #include <stdlib.h>
- void abort_handler_s(
- const char * restrict msg,
- void * restrict ptr,
- errno_t error);
- Description
-2 A pointer to the abort_handler_s function shall be a suitable argument to the
- set_constraint_handler_s function.
-3 The abort_handler_s function writes a message on the standard error stream in an
- implementation-defined format. The message shall include the string pointed to by msg.
- The abort_handler_s function then calls the abort function.393)
- Returns
-4 The abort_handler_s function does not return to its caller.
-
-
-
-
- 392) If the previous handler was registered by calling set_constraint_handler_s with a null
- pointer argument, a pointer to the implementation default handler is returned (not NULL).
- 393) Many implementations invoke a debugger when the abort function is called.

-2 A pointer to the ignore_handler_s function shall be a suitable argument to the
- set_constraint_handler_s function.
-3 The ignore_handler_s function simply returns to its caller.394)

- K.3.6.2 Communication with the environment
- K.3.6.2.1 The getenv_s function
- Synopsis
-1 #define __STDC_WANT_LIB_EXT1__ 1
- #include <stdlib.h>
- errno_t getenv_s(size_t * restrict len,
- char * restrict value, rsize_t maxsize,
- const char * restrict name);
- Runtime-constraints
-2 name shall not be a null pointer. maxsize shall neither equal zero nor be greater than
- RSIZE_MAX. If maxsize is not equal to zero, then value shall not be a null pointer.
-3 If there is a runtime-constraint violation, the integer pointed to by len is set to 0 (if len
- is not null), and the environment list is not searched.
- Description
-4 The getenv_s function searches an environment list, provided by the host environment,
- for a string that matches the string pointed to by name.
-
-
- 394) If the runtime-constraint handler is set to the ignore_handler_s function, any library function in
- which a runtime-constraint violation occurs will return to its caller. The caller can determine whether
- a runtime-constraint violation occurred based on the library function's specification (usually, the
- library function returns a nonzero errno_t).
-
-[page 602]
-
-5 If that name is found then getenv_s performs the following actions. If len is not a
- null pointer, the length of the string associated with the matched list member is stored in
- the integer pointed to by len. If the length of the associated string is less than maxsize,
- then the associated string is copied to the array pointed to by value.
-6 If that name is not found then getenv_s performs the following actions. If len is not
- a null pointer, zero is stored in the integer pointed to by len. If maxsize is greater than
- zero, then value[0] is set to the null character.
-7 The set of environment names and the method for altering the environment list are
- implementation-defined.
- Returns
-8 The getenv_s function returns zero if the specified name is found and the associated
- string was successfully stored in value. Otherwise, a nonzero value is returned.
- K.3.6.3 Searching and sorting utilities
-1 These utilities make use of a comparison function to search or sort arrays of unspecified
- type. Where an argument declared as size_t nmemb specifies the length of the array
- for a function, if nmemb has the value zero on a call to that function, then the comparison
- function is not called, a search finds no matching element, sorting performs no
- rearrangement, and the pointer to the array may be null.
-2 The implementation shall ensure that the second argument of the comparison function
- (when called from bsearch_s), or both arguments (when called from qsort_s), are
- pointers to elements of the array.395) The first argument when called from bsearch_s
- shall equal key.
-3 The comparison function shall not alter the contents of either the array or search key. The
- implementation may reorder elements of the array between calls to the comparison
- function, but shall not otherwise alter the contents of any individual element.
-4 When the same objects (consisting of size bytes, irrespective of their current positions
- in the array) are passed more than once to the comparison function, the results shall be
- consistent with one another. That is, for qsort_s they shall define a total ordering on
- the array, and for bsearch_s the same object shall always compare the same way with
- the key.
-
-
-
-
- 395) That is, if the value passed is p, then the following expressions are always valid and nonzero:
- ((char *)p - (char *)base) % size == 0
- (char *)p >= (char *)base
- (char *)p < (char *)base + nmemb * size
-
-[page 603]
-
-5 A sequence point occurs immediately before and immediately after each call to the
- comparison function, and also between any call to the comparison function and any
- movement of the objects passed as arguments to that call.

- void *context),
- void *context);
- Runtime-constraints
-2 Neither nmemb nor size shall be greater than RSIZE_MAX. If nmemb is not equal to
- zero, then none of key, base, or compar shall be a null pointer.
-3 If there is a runtime-constraint violation, the bsearch_s function does not search the
- array.
- Description
-4 The bsearch_s function searches an array of nmemb objects, the initial element of
- which is pointed to by base, for an element that matches the object pointed to by key.
- The size of each element of the array is specified by size.
-5 The comparison function pointed to by compar is called with three arguments. The first
- two point to the key object and to an array element, in that order. The function shall
- return an integer 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 element. The array
- shall consist of: all the elements that compare less than, all the elements that compare
- equal to, and all the elements that compare greater than the key object, in that order.396)
- The third argument to the comparison function is the context argument passed to
- bsearch_s. The sole use of context by bsearch_s is to pass it to the comparison
- function.397)
-
-
-
-
- 396) In practice, this means that the entire array has been sorted according to the comparison function.
- 397) The context argument is for the use of the comparison function in performing its duties. For
- example, it might specify a collating sequence used by the comparison function.
-
-[page 604]
-
- Returns
-6 The bsearch_s function returns a pointer to a matching element of the array, or a null
- pointer if no match is found or there is a runtime-constraint violation. If two elements
- compare as equal, which element is matched is unspecified.

- Runtime-constraints
-2 Neither nmemb nor size shall be greater than RSIZE_MAX. If nmemb is not equal to
- zero, then neither base nor compar shall be a null pointer.
-3 If there is a runtime-constraint violation, the qsort_s function does not sort the array.
- Description
-4 The qsort_s function sorts an array of nmemb objects, the initial element of which is
- pointed to by base. The size of each object is specified by size.
-5 The contents of the array are sorted into ascending order according to a comparison
- function pointed to by compar, which is called with three arguments. The first two
- point to the objects being compared. The function shall return an integer less than, equal
- to, or greater than zero if the first argument is considered to be respectively less than,
- equal to, or greater than the second. The third argument to the comparison function is the
- context argument passed to qsort_s. The sole use of context by qsort_s is to
- pass it to the comparison function.398)
-6 If two elements compare as equal, their relative order in the resulting sorted array is
- unspecified.
- Returns
-7 The qsort_s function returns zero if there was no runtime-constraint violation.
- Otherwise, a nonzero value is returned.
-
-
-
-
- 398) The context argument is for the use of the comparison function in performing its duties. For
- example, it might specify a collating sequence used by the comparison function.

-
- K.3.6.4 Multibyte/wide character conversion functions
-1 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 conversion state by a call for which its character pointer argument, s, is a null

- state of the function to be altered as necessary. A call with s as a null pointer causes
- these functions to set the int pointed to by their status argument to a nonzero value if

- K.3.6.4.1 The wctomb_s function
- Synopsis
-1 #define __STDC_WANT_LIB_EXT1__ 1
- #include <stdlib.h>
- errno_t wctomb_s(int * restrict status,
- char * restrict s,
- rsize_t smax,
- wchar_t wc);
- Runtime-constraints
-2 Let n denote the number of bytes needed to represent the multibyte character
- corresponding to the wide character given by wc (including any shift sequences).
-3 If s is not a null pointer, then smax shall not be less than n, and smax shall not be
- greater than RSIZE_MAX. If s is a null pointer, then smax shall equal zero.
-4 If there is a runtime-constraint violation, wctomb_s does not modify the int pointed to
- by status, and if s is not a null pointer, no more than smax elements in the array
- pointed to by s will be accessed.
- Description
-5 The wctomb_s function determines n and stores the multibyte character representation
- of wc in the array whose first element is pointed to by s (if s is not a null pointer). The
- number of characters stored never exceeds MB_CUR_MAX or smax. If wc is a null wide
- character, a null byte is stored, preceded by any shift sequence needed to restore the
- initial shift state, and the function is left in the initial conversion state.
-6 The implementation shall behave as if no library function calls the wctomb_s function.
-
-
-
-
- 399) If the locale employs special bytes to change the shift state, these bytes do not produce separate wide
- character codes, but are grouped with an adjacent multibyte character.
-
-[page 606]
-
-7 If s is a null pointer, the wctomb_s function stores into the int pointed to by status a
- nonzero or zero value, if multibyte character encodings, respectively, do or do not have
- state-dependent encodings.
-8 If s is not a null pointer, the wctomb_s function stores into the int pointed to by
- status either n or -1 if wc, respectively, does or does not correspond to a valid
- multibyte character.
-9 In no case will the int pointed to by status be set to a value greater than the
- MB_CUR_MAX macro.
- Returns
-10 The wctomb_s function returns zero if successful, and a nonzero value if there was a
- runtime-constraint violation or wc did not correspond to a valid multibyte character.
- K.3.6.5 Multibyte/wide string conversion functions
-1 The behavior of the multibyte string functions is affected by the LC_CTYPE category of
- the current locale.
- K.3.6.5.1 The mbstowcs_s function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdlib.h>
- errno_t mbstowcs_s(size_t * restrict retval,
- wchar_t * restrict dst, rsize_t dstmax,
- const char * restrict src, rsize_t len);
- Runtime-constraints
-2 Neither retval nor src shall be a null pointer. If dst is not a null pointer, then
- neither len nor dstmax shall be greater than RSIZE_MAX. If dst is a null pointer,
- then dstmax shall equal zero. If dst is not a null pointer, then dstmax shall not equal
- zero. If dst is not a null pointer and len is not less than dstmax, then a null character
- shall occur within the first dstmax multibyte characters of the array pointed to by src.
-3 If there is a runtime-constraint violation, then mbstowcs_s does the following. If
- retval is not a null pointer, then mbstowcs_s sets *retval to (size_t)(-1). If
- dst is not a null pointer and dstmax is greater than zero and less than RSIZE_MAX,
- then mbstowcs_s sets dst[0] to the null wide character.
- Description
-4 The mbstowcs_s function converts a sequence of multibyte characters that begins in
- the initial shift state from the array pointed to by src into a sequence of corresponding
- wide characters. If dst is not a null pointer, the converted characters are stored into the
- array pointed to by dst. Conversion continues up to and including a terminating null
- character, which is also stored. Conversion stops earlier in two cases: when a sequence of
-
-[page 607]
-
- bytes is encountered that does not form a valid multibyte character, or (if dst is not a
- null pointer) when len wide characters have been stored into the array pointed to by
- dst.400) If dst is not a null pointer and no null wide character was stored into the array
- pointed to by dst, then dst[len] is set to the null wide character. Each conversion
- takes place as if by a call to the mbrtowc function.
-5 Regardless of whether dst is or is not a null pointer, if the input conversion encounters a
- sequence of bytes that do not form a valid multibyte character, an encoding error occurs:
- the mbstowcs_s function stores the value (size_t)(-1) into *retval.
- Otherwise, the mbstowcs_s function stores into *retval the number of multibyte
- characters successfully converted, not including the terminating null character (if any).
-6 All elements following the terminating null wide character (if any) written by
- mbstowcs_s in the array of dstmax wide characters pointed to by dst take
- unspecified values when mbstowcs_s returns.401)
-7 If copying takes place between objects that overlap, the objects take on unspecified
- values.
- Returns
-8 The mbstowcs_s function returns zero if no runtime-constraint violation and no
- encoding error occurred. Otherwise, a nonzero value is returned.
- K.3.6.5.2 The wcstombs_s function
- Synopsis
-1 #include <stdlib.h>
- errno_t wcstombs_s(size_t * restrict retval,
- char * restrict dst, rsize_t dstmax,
- const wchar_t * restrict src, rsize_t len);
- Runtime-constraints
-2 Neither retval nor src shall be a null pointer. If dst is not a null pointer, then
- neither len nor dstmax shall be greater than RSIZE_MAX. If dst is a null pointer,
- then dstmax shall equal zero. If dst is not a null pointer, then dstmax shall not equal
- zero. If dst is not a null pointer and len is not less than dstmax, then the conversion
- shall have been stopped (see below) because a terminating null wide character was
- reached or because an encoding error occurred.
-
-
-
-
- 400) Thus, the value of len is ignored if dst is a null pointer.
- 401) This allows an implementation to attempt converting the multibyte string before discovering a
- terminating null character did not occur where required.
-
-[page 608]
-
-3 If there is a runtime-constraint violation, then wcstombs_s does the following. If
- retval is not a null pointer, then wcstombs_s sets *retval to (size_t)(-1). If
- dst is not a null pointer and dstmax is greater than zero and less than RSIZE_MAX,
- then wcstombs_s sets dst[0] to the null character.
- Description
-4 The wcstombs_s function converts a sequence of wide characters from the array
- pointed to by src into a sequence of corresponding multibyte characters that begins in
- the initial shift state. If dst is not a null pointer, the converted characters are then stored
- into the array pointed to by dst. Conversion continues up to and including a terminating
- null wide character, which is also stored. Conversion stops earlier in two cases:
- -- when a wide character is reached that does not correspond to a valid multibyte
- character;
- -- (if dst is not a null pointer) when the next multibyte character would exceed the
- limit of n total bytes to be stored into the array pointed to by dst. If the wide
- character being converted is the null wide character, then n is the lesser of len or
- dstmax. Otherwise, n is the lesser of len or dstmax-1.
- If the conversion stops without converting a null wide character and dst is not a null
- pointer, then a null character is stored into the array pointed to by dst immediately
- following any multibyte characters already stored. Each conversion takes place as if by a
- call to the wcrtomb function.402)
-5 Regardless of whether dst is or is not a null pointer, if the input conversion encounters a
- wide character that does not correspond to a valid multibyte character, an encoding error
- occurs: the wcstombs_s function stores the value (size_t)(-1) into *retval.
- Otherwise, the wcstombs_s function stores into *retval the number of bytes in the
- resulting multibyte character sequence, not including the terminating null character (if
- any).
-6 All elements following the terminating null character (if any) written by wcstombs_s
- in the array of dstmax elements pointed to by dst take unspecified values when
- wcstombs_s returns.403)
-7 If copying takes place between objects that overlap, the objects take on unspecified
- values.
-
-
- 402) If conversion stops because a terminating null wide character has been reached, the bytes stored
- include those necessary to reach the initial shift state immediately before the null byte. However, if
- the conversion stops before a terminating null wide character has been reached, the result will be null
- terminated, but might not end in the initial shift state.
- 403) When len is not less than dstmax, the implementation might fill the array before discovering a
- runtime-constraint violation.
-
-[page 609]

- Returns
-8 The wcstombs_s function returns zero if no runtime-constraint violation and no
- encoding error occurred. Otherwise, a nonzero value is returned.

- Description
-4 The memmove_s function copies n characters from the object pointed to by s2 into the

- K.3.7.3 Search functions
- K.3.7.3.1 The strtok_s function
- Synopsis

- #include <string.h>
- char *strtok_s(char * restrict s1,
- rsize_t * restrict s1max,
- const char * restrict s2,
- char ** restrict ptr);
- Runtime-constraints
-2 None of s1max, s2, or ptr shall be a null pointer. If s1 is a null pointer, then *ptr
- shall not be a null pointer. The value of *s1max shall not be greater than RSIZE_MAX.
- The end of the token found shall occur within the first *s1max characters of s1 for the
- first call, and shall occur within the first *s1max characters of where searching resumes
- on subsequent calls.
-3 If there is a runtime-constraint violation, the strtok_s function does not indirect
- through the s1 or s2 pointers, and does not store a value in the object pointed to by ptr.
- Description
-4 A sequence of calls to the strtok_s 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 fourth argument points to a caller-provided char pointer into which the
- strtok_s function stores information necessary for it to continue scanning the same
- string.
-5 The first call in a sequence has a non-null first argument and s1max points to an object
- whose value is the number of elements in the character array pointed to by the first
- argument. The first call stores an initial value in the object pointed to by ptr and
- updates the value pointed to by s1max to reflect the number of elements that remain in
- relation to ptr. Subsequent calls in the sequence have a null first argument and the
- objects pointed to by s1max and ptr are required to have the values stored by the
- previous call in the sequence, which are then updated. The separator string pointed to by
- s2 may be different from call to call.
-6 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_s
- function returns a null pointer. If such a character is found, it is the start of the first token.
-
-[page 616]
-
-7 The strtok_s function then searches from there for the first character in s1 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 in the same
- string for a token return a null pointer. If such a character is found, it is overwritten by a
- null character, which terminates the current token.
-8 In all cases, the strtok_s function stores sufficient information in the pointer pointed
- to by ptr so that subsequent calls, with a null pointer for s1 and the unmodified pointer
- value for ptr, shall start searching just past the element overwritten by a null character
- (if any).
- Returns
-9 The strtok_s function returns a pointer to the first character of a token, or a null
- pointer if there is no token or there is a runtime-constraint violation.

- Description
-4 The strerror_s function maps the number in errnum to a locale-specific message

- Description
-2 The strnlen_s function computes the length of the string pointed to by s.
- Returns
-3 If s is a null pointer,414) then the strnlen_s function returns zero.
-4 Otherwise, the strnlen_s function returns the number of characters that precede the

- Description
-4 The fwscanf_s function is equivalent to fwscanf except that the c, s, and [

- wchar_t *wcstok_s(wchar_t * restrict s1,
- rsize_t * restrict s1max,
- const wchar_t * restrict s2,
- wchar_t ** restrict ptr);
- Runtime-constraints
-2 None of s1max, s2, or ptr shall be a null pointer. If s1 is a null pointer, then *ptr
- shall not be a null pointer. The value of *s1max shall not be greater than RSIZE_MAX.
- The end of the token found shall occur within the first *s1max wide characters of s1 for
- the first call, and shall occur within the first *s1max wide characters of where searching
- resumes on subsequent calls.
-3 If there is a runtime-constraint violation, the wcstok_s function does not indirect
- through the s1 or s2 pointers, and does not store a value in the object pointed to by ptr.
- Description
-4 A sequence of calls to the wcstok_s function breaks the wide string pointed to by s1
- into a sequence of tokens, each of which is delimited by a wide character from the wide
- string pointed to by s2. The fourth argument points to a caller-provided wchar_t
- pointer into which the wcstok_s function stores information necessary for it to
- continue scanning the same wide string.
-5 The first call in a sequence has a non-null first argument and s1max points to an object
- whose value is the number of elements in the wide character array pointed to by the first
- argument. The first call stores an initial value in the object pointed to by ptr and
- updates the value pointed to by s1max to reflect the number of elements that remain in
- relation to ptr. Subsequent calls in the sequence have a null first argument and the
- objects pointed to by s1max and ptr are required to have the values stored by the
- previous call in the sequence, which are then updated. The separator wide string pointed
- to by s2 may be different from call to call.
-6 The first call in the sequence searches the wide string pointed to by s1 for the first wide
- character that is not contained in the current separator wide string pointed to by s2. If no
- such wide character is found, then there are no tokens in the wide string pointed to by s1
- and the wcstok_s function returns a null pointer. If such a wide character is found, it is
- the start of the first token.
-
-[page 641]
-
-7 The wcstok_s function then searches from there for the first wide character in s1 that
- is contained in the current separator wide string. If no such wide character is found, the
- current token extends to the end of the wide string pointed to by s1, and subsequent
- searches in the same wide string for a token return a null pointer. If such a wide character
- is found, it is overwritten by a null wide character, which terminates the current token.
-8 In all cases, the wcstok_s function stores sufficient information in the pointer pointed
- to by ptr so that subsequent calls, with a null pointer for s1 and the unmodified pointer
- value for ptr, shall start searching just past the element overwritten by a null wide
- character (if any).
- Returns
-9 The wcstok_s function returns a pointer to the first wide character of a token, or a null
- pointer if there is no token or there is a runtime-constraint violation.

- Synopsis
-2 #include <wchar.h>
- errno_t wcrtomb_s(size_t * restrict retval,
- char * restrict s, rsize_t smax,
- wchar_t wc, mbstate_t * restrict ps);
- Runtime-constraints
-3 Neither retval nor ps shall be a null pointer. If s is not a null pointer, then smax
- shall not equal zero and shall not be greater than RSIZE_MAX. If s is not a null pointer,
- then smax shall be not be less than the number of bytes to be stored in the array pointed
- to by s. If s is a null pointer, then smax shall equal zero.
-4 If there is a runtime-constraint violation, then wcrtomb_s does the following. If s is
- not a null pointer and smax is greater than zero and not greater than RSIZE_MAX, then
- wcrtomb_s sets s[0] to the null character. If retval is not a null pointer, then
- wcrtomb_s sets *retval to (size_t)(-1).
- Description
-5 If s is a null pointer, the wcrtomb_s function is equivalent to the call
- wcrtomb_s(&retval, buf, sizeof buf, L'\0', ps)
- where retval and buf are internal variables of the appropriate types, and the size of
- buf is greater than MB_CUR_MAX.
-6 If s is not a null pointer, the wcrtomb_s function determines the number of bytes
- needed to represent the multibyte character that corresponds to the wide character given
- by wc (including any shift sequences), and stores the multibyte character representation
- in the array whose first element is pointed to by s. At most MB_CUR_MAX bytes are
- stored. If wc is a null wide character, a null byte is stored, preceded by any shift
- sequence needed to restore the initial shift state; the resulting state described is the initial
- conversion state.
-
- 438) Note that the wcsnlen_s function has no runtime-constraints. This lack of runtime-constraints
- along with the values returned for a null pointer or an unterminated wide string argument make
- wcsnlen_s useful in algorithms that gracefully handle such exceptional data.
-
-[page 643]
-
-7 If wc does not correspond to a valid multibyte character, an encoding error occurs: the
- wcrtomb_s function stores the value (size_t)(-1) into *retval and the
- conversion state is unspecified. Otherwise, the wcrtomb_s function stores into
- *retval the number of bytes (including any shift sequences) stored in the array pointed
- to by s.
- Returns
-8 The wcrtomb_s function returns zero if no runtime-constraint violation and no
- encoding error occurred. Otherwise, a nonzero value is returned.
- K.3.9.3.2 Restartable multibyte/wide string conversion functions

- Runtime-constraints
-3 None of retval, src, *src, or ps shall be null pointers. If dst is not a null pointer,
- then neither len nor dstmax shall be greater than RSIZE_MAX. If dst is a null
- pointer, then dstmax shall equal zero. If dst is not a null pointer, then dstmax shall
- not equal zero. If dst is not a null pointer and len is not less than dstmax, then a null
- character shall occur within the first dstmax multibyte characters of the array pointed to
- by *src.
-4 If there is a runtime-constraint violation, then mbsrtowcs_s does the following. If
- retval is not a null pointer, then mbsrtowcs_s sets *retval to (size_t)(-1).
- If dst is not a null pointer and dstmax is greater than zero and less than RSIZE_MAX,
- then mbsrtowcs_s sets dst[0] to the null wide character.
- Description
-5 The mbsrtowcs_s function converts a sequence of multibyte characters that begins in
- the conversion state described by the object pointed to by ps, from the array indirectly
- pointed to by src into a sequence of corresponding wide characters. If dst is not a null
- pointer, the converted characters are stored into the array pointed to by dst. Conversion
- continues up to and including a terminating null character, which is also stored.
- Conversion stops earlier in two cases: when a sequence of bytes is encountered that does
- not form a valid multibyte character, or (if dst is not a null pointer) when len wide
-
-[page 644]
-
- characters have been stored into the array pointed to by dst.439) If dst is not a null
- pointer and no null wide character was stored into the array pointed to by dst, then
- dst[len] is set to the null wide character. Each conversion takes place as if by a call
- to the mbrtowc function.
-6 If dst is not a null pointer, the pointer object pointed to by src is assigned either a null
- pointer (if conversion stopped due to reaching a terminating null character) or the address
- just past the last multibyte character converted (if any). If conversion stopped due to
- reaching a terminating null character and if dst is not a null pointer, the resulting state
- described is the initial conversion state.
-7 Regardless of whether dst is or is not a null pointer, if the input conversion encounters a
- sequence of bytes that do not form a valid multibyte character, an encoding error occurs:
- the mbsrtowcs_s function stores the value (size_t)(-1) into *retval and the
- conversion state is unspecified. Otherwise, the mbsrtowcs_s function stores into
- *retval the number of multibyte characters successfully converted, not including the
- terminating null character (if any).
-8 All elements following the terminating null wide character (if any) written by
- mbsrtowcs_s in the array of dstmax wide characters pointed to by dst take
- unspecified values when mbsrtowcs_s returns.440)
-9 If copying takes place between objects that overlap, the objects take on unspecified
- values.
- Returns
-10 The mbsrtowcs_s function returns zero if no runtime-constraint violation and no
- encoding error occurred. Otherwise, a nonzero value is returned.

-
-
-
-
- 439) Thus, the value of len is ignored if dst is a null pointer.
- 440) This allows an implementation to attempt converting the multibyte string before discovering a
- terminating null character did not occur where required.

- Runtime-constraints
-12 None of retval, src, *src, or ps shall be null pointers. If dst is not a null pointer,
- then neither len nor dstmax shall be greater than RSIZE_MAX. If dst is a null
- pointer, then dstmax shall equal zero. If dst is not a null pointer, then dstmax shall
- not equal zero. If dst is not a null pointer and len is not less than dstmax, then the
- conversion shall have been stopped (see below) because a terminating null wide character
- was reached or because an encoding error occurred.
-13 If there is a runtime-constraint violation, then wcsrtombs_s does the following. If
- retval is not a null pointer, then wcsrtombs_s sets *retval to (size_t)(-1).
- If dst is not a null pointer and dstmax is greater than zero and less than RSIZE_MAX,
- then wcsrtombs_s sets dst[0] to the null character.
- Description
-14 The wcsrtombs_s function converts a sequence of wide characters from the array
- indirectly pointed to by src into a sequence of corresponding multibyte characters that
- begins in the conversion state described by the object pointed to by ps. If dst is not a
- null pointer, the converted characters are then stored into the array pointed to by dst.
- Conversion continues up to and including a terminating null wide character, which is also
- stored. Conversion stops earlier in two cases:
- -- when a wide character is reached that does not correspond to a valid multibyte
- character;
- -- (if dst is not a null pointer) when the next multibyte character would exceed the
- limit of n total bytes to be stored into the array pointed to by dst. If the wide
- character being converted is the null wide character, then n is the lesser of len or
- dstmax. Otherwise, n is the lesser of len or dstmax-1.
- If the conversion stops without converting a null wide character and dst is not a null
- pointer, then a null character is stored into the array pointed to by dst immediately
- following any multibyte characters already stored. Each conversion takes place as if by a
- call to the wcrtomb function.441)
-15 If dst is not a null pointer, the pointer object pointed to by src is assigned either a null
- pointer (if conversion stopped due to reaching a terminating null wide character) or the
- address just past the last wide character converted (if any). If conversion stopped due to
- reaching a terminating null wide character, the resulting state described is the initial
- conversion state.
-
-
- 441) If conversion stops because a terminating null wide character has been reached, the bytes stored
- include those necessary to reach the initial shift state immediately before the null byte. However, if
- the conversion stops before a terminating null wide character has been reached, the result will be null
- terminated, but might not end in the initial shift state.
-
-[page 646]
-
-16 Regardless of whether dst is or is not a null pointer, if the input conversion encounters a
- wide character that does not correspond to a valid multibyte character, an encoding error
- occurs: the wcsrtombs_s function stores the value (size_t)(-1) into *retval
- and the conversion state is unspecified. Otherwise, the wcsrtombs_s function stores
- into *retval the number of bytes in the resulting multibyte character sequence, not
- including the terminating null character (if any).
-17 All elements following the terminating null character (if any) written by wcsrtombs_s
- in the array of dstmax elements pointed to by dst take unspecified values when
- wcsrtombs_s returns.442)
-18 If copying takes place between objects that overlap, the objects take on unspecified
- values.
- Returns
-19 The wcsrtombs_s function returns zero if no runtime-constraint violation and no
- encoding error occurred. Otherwise, a nonzero value is returned.
-
-
-
-
- 442) When len is not less than dstmax, the implementation might fill the array before discovering a
- runtime-constraint violation.

- Annex L
- (normative)
- Analyzability
- L.1 Scope
-1 This annex specifies optional behavior that can aid in the analyzability of C programs.
-2 An implementation that defines __STDC_ANALYZABLE__ shall conform to the
- specifications in this annex.443)
- L.2 Definitions
- L.2.1
-1 out-of-bounds store
- an (attempted) access (3.1) that, at run time, for a given computational state, would
- modify (or, for an object declared volatile, fetch) one or more bytes that lie outside
- the bounds permitted by this Standard.
- L.2.2
-1 bounded undefined behavior
- undefined behavior (3.4.3) that does not perform an out-of-bounds store.
-2 NOTE 1 The behavior might perform a trap.
-
-3 NOTE 2 Any values produced or stored might be indeterminate values.
-
- L.2.3
-1 critical undefined behavior
- undefined behavior that is not bounded undefined behavior.
-2 NOTE The behavior might perform an out-of-bounds store or perform a trap.
-
-
-
-
- 443) Implementations that do not define __STDC_ANALYZABLE__ are not required to conform to these
- specifications.
-
-[page 648]
-
- L.3 Requirements
-1 If the program performs a trap (3.19.5), the implementation is permitted to invoke a
- runtime-constraint handler. Any such semantics are implementation-defined.
-2 All undefined behavior shall be limited to bounded undefined behavior, except for the
- following which are permitted to result in critical undefined behavior:
- -- An object is referred to outside of its lifetime (6.2.4).
- -- An lvalue does not designate an object when evaluated (6.3.2.1).
- -- A pointer is used to call a function whose type is not compatible with the referenced
- type (6.3.2.3).
- -- The operand of the unary * operator has an invalid value (6.5.3.2).
- -- Addition or subtraction of a pointer into, or just beyond, an array object and an
- integer type produces a result that points just beyond the array object and is used as
- the operand of a unary * operator that is evaluated (6.5.6).
- -- An argument to a library function has an invalid value or a type not expected by a
- function with variable number of arguments (7.1.4).
- -- The value of a pointer that refers to space deallocated by a call to the free or realloc
- function is used (7.22.3).
- -- A string or wide string utility function is instructed to access an array beyond the end
- of an object (7.23.1, 7.28.4).
