VFWPRINTF(3P)                                       POSIX Programmer's Manual                                      VFWPRINTF(3P)



PROLOG
       This  manual  page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.  The Linux implementation of this interface may differ (con-
       sult the corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior), or the  interface  may  not  be  implemented  on
       Linux.

NAME
       vfwprintf, vswprintf, vwprintf - wide-character formatted output of a stdarg argument list

SYNOPSIS
       #include <stdarg.h>
       #include <stdio.h>
       #include <wchar.h>

       int vfwprintf(FILE *restrict stream, const wchar_t *restrict format,
              va_list arg);
       int vswprintf(wchar_t *restrict ws, size_t n,
              const wchar_t *restrict format, va_list arg);
       int vwprintf(const wchar_t *restrict format, va_list arg);


DESCRIPTION
       The  vfwprintf(),  vswprintf(),  and  vwprintf()  functions  shall be equivalent to fwprintf(), swprintf(), and wprintf()
       respectively, except that instead of being called with a variable number of arguments, they are called with  an  argument
       list as defined by <stdarg.h>.

       These  functions  shall not invoke the va_end macro. However, as these functions do invoke the va_arg macro, the value of
       ap after the return is unspecified.

RETURN VALUE
       Refer to fwprintf().

ERRORS
       Refer to fwprintf().

       The following sections are informative.

EXAMPLES
       None.

APPLICATION USAGE
       Applications using these functions should call va_end(ap) afterwards to clean up.

RATIONALE
       None.

FUTURE DIRECTIONS
       None.
