printf 3

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello

Looking at this page:
http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/online/pages/man3/printf.3.html

"If an output error is encountered, a negative value is returned."

I am thinking if this could be clarified. If I call printf(NULL), errno is set to EINVAL, and -1 is returned.

Perhaps could be expanded to add:

"If a parameter error is encountered, errno set to EINVAL, and -1 is returned. If an output error is encountered, errno set EIO and -1 returned.

Best regards, Jon
