|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn fgetc
|
|
function
|
|
obtains the next input character (if present) from the stream pointed at by
|
|
.Fa stream ,
|
|
or the next character pushed back on the stream via
|
|
.Xr ungetc 3 .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn getc
|
|
function
|
|
acts essentially identically to
|
|
.Fn fgetc ,
|
|
but is a macro that expands in-line.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn getchar
|
|
function
|
|
is equivalent to
|
|
.Fn getc stdin .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn getw
|
|
function
|
|
obtains the next
|
|
.Vt int
|
|
(if present)
|
|
from the stream pointed at by
|
|
.Fa stream .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn getc_unlocked
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn getchar_unlocked
|
|
functions are equivalent to
|
|
.Fn getc
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn getchar
|
|
respectively,
|
|
except that the caller is responsible for locking the stream
|
|
with
|
|
.Xr flockfile 3
|
|
before calling them.
|
|
These functions may be used to avoid the overhead of locking the stream
|
|
for each character, and to avoid input being dispersed among multiple
|
|
threads reading from the same stream.
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
If successful, these routines return the next requested object
|
|
from the
|
|
.Fa stream .
|
|
Character values are returned as an
|
|
.Vt "unsigned char"
|
|
converted to an
|
|
.Vt int .
|
|
If the stream is at end-of-file or a read error occurs,
|
|
the routines return
|
|
.Dv EOF .
|
|
The routines
|
|
.Xr feof 3
|
|
and
|
|
.Xr ferror 3
|
|
must be used to distinguish between end-of-file and error.
|
|
If an error occurs, the global variable
|
|
.Va errno
|
|
is set to indicate the error.
|
|
The end-of-file condition is remembered, even on a terminal, and all
|
|
subsequent attempts to read will return
|
|
.Dv EOF
|
|
until the condition is cleared with
|
|
.Xr clearerr 3 .

.Sh STANDARDS
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn fgetc ,
|
|
.Fn getc ,
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn getchar
|
|
functions
|
|
conform to
|
|
.St -isoC .
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn getc_unlocked
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn getchar_unlocked
|
|
functions conform to
|
|
.St -p1003.1-2001 .
|
|
.Sh HISTORY
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn getc
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn getw
|
|
functions appeared in a similar form in
|
|
.At v1 ;
|
|
and were integrated into stdio in
|
|
.At v7 ;
|
|
.Fn getchar
|
|
in
|
|
.At v4 ;
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn fgetc
|
|
in
|
|
.At v7 .
|
|
.Sh BUGS
|
|
Since
|
|
.Dv EOF
|
|
is a valid integer value,
|
|
.Xr feof 3
|
|
and
|
|
.Xr ferror 3
|
|
must be used to check for failure after calling
|
|
.Fn getw .
|
|
The size and byte order of an
|
|
.Vt int
|
|
varies from one machine to another, and
|
|
.Fn getw
|
|
is not recommended for portable applications.
