.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In stdio.h
|
|
.Ft char *
|
|
.Fn fgets "char * restrict str" "int size" "FILE * restrict stream"
|
|
.Ft char *
|
|
.Fn gets_s "char *str" "rsize_t size"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn fgets
|
|
function
|
|
reads at most one less than the number of characters specified by
|
|
.Fa size
|
|
from the given
|
|
.Fa stream
|
|
and stores them in the string
|
|
.Fa str .
|
|
Reading stops when a newline character is found,
|
|
at end-of-file or error.
|
|
The newline, if any, is retained.
|
|
If any characters are read and there is no error, a
|
|
.Ql \e0
|
|
character is appended to end the string.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn gets_s
|
|
function
|
|
is equivalent to
|
|
.Fn fgets
|
|
with a
|
|
.Fa stream
|
|
of
|
|
.Dv stdin ,
|
|
except that the newline character (if any) is not stored in the string.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn gets
|
|
function
|
|
was unsafe and is no longer available.
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
Upon successful completion,
|
|
.Fn fgets
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn gets_s
|
|
return
|
|
a pointer to the string.
|
|
If end-of-file occurs before any characters are read,
|
|
they return
|
|
.Dv NULL
|
|
and the buffer contents remain unchanged.
|
|
If an error occurs,
|
|
they return
|
|
.Dv NULL
|
|
and the buffer contents are indeterminate.
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn fgets
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn gets_s
|
|
functions
|
|
do not distinguish between end-of-file and error, and callers must use
|
|
.Xr feof 3
|
|
and
|
|
.Xr ferror 3
|
|
to determine which occurred.
|
|
.Sh ERRORS
