strtoll (The Red Hat newlib C Library)

#include <stdlib.h>
long long strtoll(const char *restrict s, char **restrict ptr,
    int base);

#include <stdlib.h>
long long strtoll_l(const char *restrict s,
    char **restrict ptr, int base,
    locale_t locale);

long long _strtoll_r(void *reent, 
    const char *restrict s,
    char **restrict ptr, int base);

Description
The function strtoll converts the string *s to a long long. First, it breaks down the string into three parts: leading whitespace, which is ignored; a subject string consisting of characters resembling an integer in the radix specified by base; and a trailing portion consisting of zero or more unparseable characters, and always including the terminating null character. Then, it attempts to convert the subject string into a long long and returns the result.

If the value of base is 0, the subject string is expected to look like a normal C integer constant: an optional sign, a possible ‘0x’ indicating a hexadecimal base, and a number. If base is between 2 and 36, the expected form of the subject is a sequence of letters and digits representing an integer in the radix specified by base, with an optional plus or minus sign. The letters a–z (or, equivalently, A–Z) are used to signify values from 10 to 35; only letters whose ascribed values are less than base are permitted. If base is 16, a leading 0x is permitted.

The subject sequence is the longest initial sequence of the input string that has the expected form, starting with the first non-whitespace character. If the string is empty or consists entirely of whitespace, or if the first non-whitespace character is not a permissible letter or digit, the subject string is empty.

If the subject string is acceptable, and the value of base is zero, strtoll attempts to determine the radix from the input string. A string with a leading 0x is treated as a hexadecimal value; a string with a leading 0 and no x is treated as octal; all other strings are treated as decimal. If base is between 2 and 36, it is used as the conversion radix, as described above. If the subject string begins with a minus sign, the value is negated. Finally, a pointer to the first character past the converted subject string is stored in ptr, if ptr is not NULL.

If the subject string is empty (or not in acceptable form), no conversion is performed and the value of s is stored in ptr (if ptr is not NULL).

strtoll_l is like strtoll but performs the conversion based on the locale specified by the locale object locale. If locale is LC_GLOBAL_LOCALE or not a valid locale object, the behaviour is undefined.

The alternate function _strtoll_r is a reentrant version. The extra argument reent is a pointer to a reentrancy structure.

Returns
strtoll, strtoll_l return the converted value, if any. If no conversion was made, 0 is returned.

strtoll, strtoll_l return LONG_LONG_MAX or LONG_LONG_MIN if the magnitude of the converted value is too large, and sets errno to ERANGE.
