|

.Sh LIBRARY
|

|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In stdio.h
|
|
.Ft FILE *
|
|
.Fn open_memstream "char **bufp" "size_t *sizep"
|
|
.In wchar.h
|
|
.Ft FILE *
|
|
.Fn open_wmemstream "wchar_t **bufp" "size_t *sizep"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn open_memstream
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn open_wmemstream
|
|
functions create a write-only, seekable stream backed by a dynamically
|
|
allocated memory buffer.
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn open_memstream
|
|
function creates a byte-oriented stream,
|
|
while the
|
|
.Fn open_wmemstream
|
|
function creates a wide-oriented stream.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Each stream maintains a current position and size.
|
|
Initially,
|
|
the position and size are set to zero.
|
|
Each write begins at the current position and advances it the number of
|
|
successfully written bytes for
|
|
.Fn open_memstream
|
|
or wide characters for
|
|
.Fn open_wmemstream .
|
|
If a write moves the current position beyond the length of the buffer,
|
|
the length of the buffer is extended and a null character is appended to the
|
|
buffer.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
A stream's buffer always contains a null character at the end of the buffer
|
|
that is not included in the current length.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If a stream's current position is moved beyond the current length via a
|
|
seek operation and a write is performed,
|
|
the characters between the current length and the current position are filled
|
|
with null characters before the write is performed.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
After a successful call to
|
|
.Xr fclose 3
|
|
or
|
|
.Xr fflush 3 ,
|
|
the pointer referenced by
|
|
.Fa bufp
|
|
will contain the start of the memory buffer and the variable referenced by
|
|
.Fa sizep
|
|
will contain the smaller of the current position and the current buffer length.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
After a successful call to
|
|
.Xr fflush 3 ,
|
|
the pointer referenced by
|
|
.Fa bufp
|
|
and the variable referenced by
|
|
.Fa sizep
|
|
are only valid until the next write operation or a call to
|
|
.Xr fclose 3 .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Once a stream is closed,
|
|
the allocated buffer referenced by
|
|
.Fa bufp
|
|
should be released via a call to
|
|
.Xr free 3
|
|
when it is no longer needed.
|
|
.Sh IMPLEMENTATION NOTES
|
|
Internally all I/O streams are effectively byte-oriented,
|
|
so using wide-oriented operations to write to a stream opened via
|
|
.Fn open_wmemstream
|
|
results in wide characters being expanded to a stream of multibyte characters
|
|
in stdio's internal buffers.
|
|
These multibyte characters are then converted back to wide characters when
|
|
written into the stream.
|
|
As a result,
|
|
the wide-oriented streams maintain an internal multibyte character conversion
|
|
state that is cleared on any seek operation that changes the current position.
|
|
This should have no effect as long as wide-oriented output operations are used
|
|
on a wide-oriented stream.
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
Upon successful completion,
|
|
.Fn open_memstream
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn open_wmemstream
|
|
return a
|
|
.Vt FILE
|
|
pointer.
|
|
Otherwise,
|
|
.Dv NULL
|
|
is returned and the global variable
|
|
.Va errno
|
|
is set to indicate the error.
|
|
.Sh ERRORS
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Er

argument was

|
