.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In stdio.h
|
|
.Ft "char *"
|
|
.Fo "fparseln"
|
|
.Fa "FILE *stream" "size_t *len" "size_t *lineno"

|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn fparseln
|
|
function
|
|
returns a pointer to the next logical line from the stream referenced by
|
|
.Fa stream .
|
|
This string is
|
|
.Dv NUL
|
|
terminated and it is dynamically allocated on each invocation.
|
|
It is the responsibility of the caller to free the pointer.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
By default, if a character is escaped, both it and the preceding escape
|
|
character will be present in the returned string.
|
|
Various
|
|
.Fa flags
|
|
alter this behaviour.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The meaning of the arguments is as follows:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width "lineno"
|
|
.It Fa stream
|
|
The stream to read from.
|
|
.It Fa len
|
|
If not
|
|
.Dv NULL ,
|
|
the length of the string is stored in the memory location to which it
|
|
points.
|
|
.It Fa lineno
|
|
If not
|
|
.Dv NULL ,
|
|
the value of the memory location to which is pointed to, is incremented
|
|
by the number of lines actually read from the file.
|
|
.It Fa delim
|
|
Contains the escape, continuation, and comment characters.
|
|
If a character is
|
|
.Dv NUL
|
|
then processing for that character is disabled.
|
|
If
|
|
.Dv NULL ,
|
|
all characters default to values specified below.
|
|
The contents of
|
|
.Fa delim
|
|
is as follows:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width "delim[0]"
|
|
.It Fa delim[0]
|
|
The escape character, which defaults to
|
|
.Cm \e ,
|
|
is used to remove any special meaning from the next character.
|
|
.It Fa delim[1]
|
|
The continuation character, which defaults to
|
|
.Cm \e ,
|
|
is used to indicate that the next line should be concatenated with the
|
|
current one if this character is the last character on the current line
|
|
and is not escaped.
|
|
.It Fa delim[2]
|
|
The comment character, which defaults to
|
|
.Cm # ,
|
|
if not escaped indicates the beginning of a comment that extends until the
|
|
end of the current line.
|
|
.El
|
|
.It Fa flags
|
|
If non-zero, alter the operation of
|
|
.Fn fparseln .
|
|
The various flags, which may be
|
|
.Em or Ns -ed
|
|
together, are:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width "FPARSELN_UNESCCOMM"
|
|
.It Dv FPARSELN_UNESCCOMM
|
|
Remove escape preceding an escaped comment.
|
|
.It Dv FPARSELN_UNESCCONT
|
|
Remove escape preceding an escaped continuation.
|
|
.It Dv FPARSELN_UNESCESC
|
|
Remove escape preceding an escaped escape.
|
|
.It Dv FPARSELN_UNESCREST
|
|
Remove escape preceding any other character.
|
|
.It Dv FPARSELN_UNESCALL
|
|
All of the above.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.El
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
Upon successful completion a pointer to the parsed line is returned;
|
|
otherwise,
|
|
.Dv NULL
|
|
is returned.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn fparseln
|
|
function uses internally
|
|
.Xr fgetln 3 ,
|
|
so all error conditions that apply to
|
|
.Xr fgetln 3 ,
|
|
apply to
|
|
.Fn fparseln .
|
|
In addition
|
|
.Fn fparseln
|
|
may set
|
|
.Va errno
|
|
to
|
|
.Bq Er ENOMEM
|
|
and return
|
|
.Dv NULL
|
|
if it runs out of memory.
