NWprintf(3nw)
NWprintf --
reorders parameter variable list before vprintf
Synopsis
#include <time.h> or #define NWL_EXCLUDE_TIME
#include <stdio.h> or #define NWL_EXCLUDE_FILE
#include <nwlocale.h>
int far cdecl NWprintf
(char NWFAR *format,
parameter_1,
parameter_2);
Description
The parameters are as follows:
- format
-
(IN) Points to the format string determining how the data will be
formatted before sending it to standard output.
- parameter_1, parameter_2,
-
(IN) Specifies the user-supplied variable list of parameters whose
values are used in the formatted output.
Return values
Number of bytes output.
Notices
If the format string of NWprintf is prepended with a reordering
vector, use it to reorder the variable list of parameters on the stack
before C standard vprintf is called. Otherwise, NWprintf
is the same as C standard printf.
To understand how to deal with the reordering vector, read the Novell
publication, NetWare Internationalization Guide.
For information about data formatting, see
printf(3S).
NWprintf uses two types of format strings. The first uses the
%n %x format for each parameter, where n is
the position of the parameter to use and x is the standard
printf parameter type.
