|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn strtol
|
|
function
|
|
converts the string in
|
|
.Fa nptr
|
|
to a
|
|
.Ft long int
|
|
value.
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn strtoll
|
|
function
|
|
converts the string in
|
|
.Fa nptr
|
|
to a
|
|
.Ft long long int
|
|
value.
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn strtoimax
|
|
function
|
|
converts the string in
|
|
.Fa nptr
|
|
to an
|
|
.Ft intmax_t
|
|
value.
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn strtoq
|
|
function
|
|
converts the string in
|
|
.Fa nptr
|
|
to a
|
|
.Ft quad_t
|
|
value.
|
|
The conversion is done according to the given
|
|
.Fa base ,
|
|
which must be between 2 and 36 inclusive,
|
|
or be the special value 0.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The string may begin with an arbitrary amount of white space
|
|
(as determined by
|
|
.Xr isspace 3 )
|
|
followed by a single optional
|
|
.Ql +
|
|
or
|
|
.Ql -
|
|
sign.
|
|
If
|
|
.Fa base
|
|
is zero or 16,
|
|
the string may then include a
|
|
.Ql 0x
|
|
prefix,
|
|
and the number will be read in base 16; otherwise, a zero
|
|
.Fa base
|
|
is taken as 10 (decimal) unless the next character is
|
|
.Ql 0 ,
|
|
in which case it is taken as 8 (octal).
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The remainder of the string is converted to a
|
|
.Em long
|
|
value in the obvious manner,
|
|
stopping at the first character which is not a valid digit
|
|
in the given base.
|
|
(In bases above 10, the letter
|
|
.Ql A
|
|
in either upper or lower case
|
|
represents 10,
|
|
.Ql B
|
|
represents 11, and so forth, with
|
|
.Ql Z
|
|
representing 35.)
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If
|
|
.Fa endptr
|
|
is non-nil,
|
|
.Fn strtol
|
|
stores the address of the first invalid character in
|
|
.Fa *endptr .
|
|
If there were no digits at all, however,
|
|
.Fn strtol
|
|
stores the original value of
|
|
.Fa nptr
|
|
in
|
|
.Fa *endptr .
|
|
(Thus, if
|
|
.Fa *nptr
|
|
is not
|
|
.Ql \e0
|
|
but
|
|
.Fa **endptr
|
|
is
|
|
.Ql \e0
|
|
on return, the entire string was valid.)
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn strtol
|
|
function
|
|
returns the result of the conversion,
|
|
unless the value would underflow or overflow.
|
|
If an underflow occurs,
|
|
.Fn strtol
|
|
returns
|
|
.Dv LONG_MIN ,
|
|
.Fn strtoll
|
|
returns
|
|
.Dv LLONG_MIN ,
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn strtoimax
|
|
returns
|
|
.Dv INTMAX_MIN .
|
|
If an overflow occurs,
|
|
.Fn strtol
|
|
returns
|
|
.Dv LONG_MAX ,
|
|
.Fn strtoll
|
|
returns
|
|
.Dv LLONG_MAX ,
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn strtoimax
|
|
returns
|
|
.Dv INTMAX_MAX .
|
|
In these cases,
|
|
.Va errno
|
|
is set to
|
|
.Er ERANGE .
|
|
If the
|
|
.Fa base
|
|
argument is not supported then
|
|
.Va errno
|
|
is set to
|
|
.Er EINVAL
|
|
and the functions return 0.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If no error occurs,
|
|
.Va errno
|
|
is left unchanged.
|
|
This behavior (which is unlike most library functions) is guaranteed
|
|
by the pertinent standards.
|
|
.Sh EXAMPLES
|
|
Because the return value of
|
|
.Fn strtol
|
|
cannot be used unambiguously to detect an error,
|
|
.Va errno
|
|
is left unchanged after a successful call.
|
|
To ensure that a string is a valid number (i.e., in range and containing no
|
|
trailing characters), clear
|
|
.Va errno
|
|
beforehand explicitly, then check it afterwards:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
char *ep;
|
|
long lval;
|
|
|
|
\&...
|
|
|
|
errno = 0;
|
|
lval = strtol(buf, \*[Am]ep, 10);
|
|
if (buf[0] == '\e0' || *ep != '\e0')
|
|
goto not_a_number;
|
|
if (errno == ERANGE \*[Am]\*[Am] (lval == LONG_MAX || lval == LONG_MIN))
|
|
goto out_of_range;
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
This example will accept
|
|
.Dq 12
|
|
but not
|
|
.Dq 12foo
|
|
or
|
|
.Dq 12\en .
|
|
If trailing whitespace is acceptable, further checks must be done on
|
|
.Va *ep ;
|
|
alternately, use
|
|
.Xr sscanf 3 .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If
|
|
.Fn strtol
|
|
is being used instead of
|
|
.Xr atoi 3 ,
|
|
error checking is further complicated because the desired return value is an
|
|
.Li int
|
|
rather than a
|
|
.Li long ;
|
|
however, on some architectures integers and long integers are the same size.
|
|
Thus the following is necessary:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
char *ep;
|
|
int ival;
|
|
long lval;
|
|
|
|
\&...
|
|
|
|
errno = 0;
|
|
lval = strtol(buf, \*[Am]ep, 10);
|
|
if (buf[0] == '\e0' || *ep != '\e0')
|
|
goto not_a_number;
|
|
if ((errno == ERANGE \*[Am]\*[Am] (lval == LONG_MAX || lval == LONG_MIN)) ||
|
|
(lval \*[Gt] INT_MAX || lval \*[Lt] INT_MIN))
|
|
goto out_of_range;
|
|
ival = lval;
