<p><strong>Synopsis</strong>
|
||
|
</p><div class="example">
|
||
|
<pre class="example">#include <stdio.h>
|
||
|
ssize_t getline(char **<var>bufptr</var>, size_t *<var>n</var>, FILE *<var>fp</var>);
|
||
|
|
||
|
</pre></div>
|
||
|
<p><strong>Description</strong><br>
|
||
|
<code>getline</code> reads a file <var>fp</var> up to and possibly including the
|
||
|
newline character. The line is read into a buffer pointed to
|
||
|
by <var>bufptr</var> and designated with size *<var>n</var>. If the buffer is
|
||
|
not large enough, it will be dynamically grown by <code>getdelim</code>.
|
||
|
As the buffer is grown, the pointer to the size <var>n</var> will be
|
||
|
updated.
|
||
|
</p>
|
||
|
<p><code>getline</code> is equivalent to getdelim(bufptr, n, ’\n’, fp);
|
||
|
</p>
|
||
|
<br>
|
||
|
<p><strong>Returns</strong><br>
|
||
|
<code>getline</code> returns <code>-1</code> if no characters were successfully read,
|
||
|
otherwise, it returns the number of bytes successfully read.
|
||
|
at end of file, the result is nonzero.
|
||
|
</p>
|
||
|
<br>
|
||
|
<p><strong>Portability</strong><br>
|
||
|
<code>getline</code> is a glibc extension.
|
||
|
</p>
|
||
|
<p>No supporting OS subroutines are directly required.
|
||
|
