<h3 class="section">2.6 <code>atexit</code>—request execution of functions at program exit</h3>
|
|
<a name="index-atexit"></a>
|
|
<p><strong>Synopsis</strong>
|
|
</p><div class="example">
|
|
<pre class="example">#include <stdlib.h>
|
|
int atexit (void (*<var>function</var>)(void));
|
|
|
|
</pre></div>
|
|
<p><strong>Description</strong><br>
|
|
You can use <code>atexit</code> to enroll functions in a list of functions that
|
|
will be called when your program terminates normally. The argument is
|
|
a pointer to a user-defined function (which must not require arguments and
|
|
must not return a result).
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>The functions are kept in a LIFO stack; that is, the last function
|
|
enrolled by <code>atexit</code> will be the first to execute when your program
|
|
exits.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>There is no built-in limit to the number of functions you can enroll
|
|
in this list; however, after every group of 32 functions is enrolled,
|
|
<code>atexit</code> will call <code>malloc</code> to get space for the next part of the
|
|
list. The initial list of 32 functions is statically allocated, so
|
|
you can always count on at least that many slots available.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<br>
|
|
<p><strong>Returns</strong><br>
|
|
<code>atexit</code> returns <code>0</code> if it succeeds in enrolling your function,
|
|
<code>-1</code> if it fails (possible only if no space was available for
|
|
<code>malloc</code> to extend the list of functions).
|
|
</p>
|
|
<br>
|
|
<p><strong>Portability</strong><br>
|
|
<code>atexit</code> is required by the ANSI standard, which also specifies that
|
|
implementations must support enrolling at least 32 functions.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>Supporting OS subroutines required: <code>close</code>, <code>fstat</code>, <code>isatty</code>,
|
|
<code>lseek</code>, <code>read</code>, <code>sbrk</code>, <code>write</code>.
