[nft PATCH v2 2/2] src: get rid of printf

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

 



This patch introduces the nft_print function that has to be used
instead of printf to output information that were previously send
to stdout. This function accumulate the output in a buffer that can
be fetched by the user with the nft_ctx_get_output() function.

This modification will allow the libnftables library to provide an
easy way to the users to get the output data and display them like
they want.
