FGETWS(3) FreeBSD Library Functions Manual FGETWS(3)
NAME
fgetws - get a line of wide characters from a stream
SYNOPSIS
#include <stdio.h>
#include <wchar.h>
wchar_t *
fgetws(wchar_t * restrict ws, int n, FILE * restrict fp);
DESCRIPTION
The fgetws() function reads at most one less than the number of
characters specified by n from the given fp and stores them in the wide-
character string ws. Reading stops when a newline character is found, at
end-of-file, or error. The newline, if any, is retained. If any
characters are read and there is no error, a `\0' character is appended
to end the string.
RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion, fgetws() returns ws. If end-of-file occurs
before any characters are read, fgetws() returns NULL and the buffer
contents remain unchanged. If an error occurs, fgetws() returns NULL and
the buffer contents are indeterminate. The fgetws() function does not
distinguish between end-of-file and error, and callers must use feof(3)
and ferror(3) to determine which occurred.
ERRORS
[EBADF] The given fp argument is not a readable stream.
[EILSEQ] The data obtained from the input stream does not form
a valid multibyte character.
The function fgetws() may also fail and set errno for any of the errors
specified for the routines fflush(3), fstat(2), read(2), or malloc(3).
SEE ALSO
feof(3), ferror(3), fgets(3)
STANDARDS
The fgetws() function conforms to IEEE Std 1003.1-2001 ("POSIX.1").
