NAME
       stdarg - handle variable argument list

SYNOPSIS
       #include <stdarg.h>
       va_list pvar;

       void va_start(va_list pvar, void name);


       (type *) va_arg(va_list pvar, type);


       void va_copy(va_list dest, va_list src);


       void va_end(va_list pvar);

DESCRIPTION
       This set of macros allows portable procedures that accept variable num‐
       bers  of  arguments of variable types to be written. Routines that have
       variable argument lists (such as printf) but do not use stdarg are  in‐
       herently  non-portable,  as  different machines use different argument-
       passing conventions.


       va_list is a type defined for the variable used to traverse the list.


       The va_start macro is invoked before any access to  the  unnamed  argu‐
       ments and initializes pvar for subsequent use by va_arg() and va_end().
       The  parameter name is the identifier of the rightmost parameter in the
       variable parameter list in the function definition (the one just before
       the , ...). If this parameter is declared  with  the  register  storage
       class or with a function or array type, or with a type that is not com‐
       patible with the type that results after application of the default ar‐
       gument promotions, the behavior is undefined.


       The  parameter  name  is  required  under strict ANSI C compilation. In
       other compilation modes, name need not be supplied and the second para‐
       meter  to  the  va_start()  macro  can  be  left  empty  (for  example,
       va_start(pvar, );). This allows for routines that contain no parameters
       before the ... in the variable parameter list.


       The va_arg() macro expands to an expression that has the type and value
       of  the  next argument in the call. The parameter pvar should have been
       previously initialized by va_start(). Each invocation of va_arg() modi‐
       fies pvar so that the values of successive arguments  are  returned  in
       turn.  The  parameter  type is the type name of the next argument to be
       returned. The type name must be specified in such a  way  so  that  the
       type  of  a pointer to an object that has the specified type can be ob‐
       tained simply by postfixing a * to type. If there is no actual next ar‐
       gument, or if type is not compatible with the type of the  actual  next
       argument  (as  promoted  according to the default argument promotions),
       the behavior is undefined.


       The va_copy() macro saves the state represented by  the  va_listsrc  in
       the va_list  dest. The va_list passed as dest should not be initialized
       by a previous call to va_start(), and must be passed to va_end() before
       being reused as a parameter to va_start() or as the dest parameter of a
       subsequent  call  to va_copy(). The behavior is undefined should any of
       these restrictions not be met.


       The va_end() macro is used to clean up.


       Multiple traversals, each bracketed by  va_start()  and  va_end(),  are
       possible.

EXAMPLES
       Example 1 A sample program.




       This  example gathers into an array a list of arguments that are point‐
       ers to strings (but not more than MAXARGS arguments) with function  f1,
       then  passes  the array as a single argument to function f2. The number
       of pointers is specified by the first argument to f1.


         #include <stdarg.h>
         #define MAXARGS     31
         void f1(int n_ptrs, ...)
         {
              va_list ap;
              char *array[MAXARGS];
              int ptr_no = 0;

              if (n_ptrs > MAXARGS)
                   n_ptrs = MAXARGS;
              va_start(ap, n_ptrs);
              while (ptr_no < n_ptrs)
                   array[ptr_no++] = va_arg(ap, char*);
              va_end(ap);
              f2(n_ptrs, array);
         }




       Each call to f1 shall have visible the definition of the function or  a
       declaration such as


         void f1(int, ...)

NOTES
       It is the responsibility of the calling routine to specify in some man‐
       ner  how  many  arguments there are, since it is not always possible to
       determine the number of arguments from the stack  frame.  For  example,
       execl  is  passed  a  zero  pointer  to signal the end of the list. The
       printf function can determine the number of arguments by the format. It
       is non-portable to specify a second argument of char, short,  or  float
       to  va_arg(),  because  arguments  seen  by the called function are not
       char, short, or float. C converts char and short arguments to  int  and
       converts float arguments to double before passing them to a function.
