44 /* Write formatted output to a string dynamically allocated with malloc().
45 You can pass a preallocated buffer for the result in RESULTBUF and its
46 size in *LENGTHP; otherwise you pass RESULTBUF = NULL.
47 If successful, return the address of the string (this may be = RESULTBUF
48 if no dynamic memory allocation was necessary) and set *LENGTHP to the
49 number of resulting bytes, excluding the trailing NUL. Upon error, set
50 errno and return NULL.
52 When dynamic memory allocation occurs, the preallocated buffer is left
53 alone (with possibly modified contents). This makes it possible to use
54 a statically allocated or stack-allocated buffer, like this:
56 char buf[100];
57 size_t len = sizeof (buf);
58 char *output = vasnprintf (buf, &len, format, args);
59 if (output == NULL)
60 ... error handling ...;
61 else
63 ... use the output string ...;
64 if (output != buf)
65 free (output);
68 extern char * asnprintf (char *resultbuf, size_t *lengthp, const char *format, ...)
