Extensions to the C Library Part II: Dynamic Allocation Functions, ISO/IEC TR 24731-2:2010, defines the following new components for the C standard library:
__STDC_ALLOC_LIB__ | integer constant of typelong indicating conformance level (macro constant) |
Defined in header <stdio.h> | |
(dynamic memory TR) | opens a fixed-size memory buffer as an I/O stream (function)[edit] |
(dynamic memory TR) | opens a dynamically resized memory buffer as an I/O stream (function)[edit] |
(dynamic memory TR) | variants ofsprintf etc that write to automatically-allocated buffer and return a pointer to it (function)[edit] |
(dynamic memory TR) | read from a stream into an automatically resized buffer until delimiter/end of line (function)[edit] |
Defined in header <string.h> | |
(dynamic memory TR) | allocate a copy of a string (function)[edit] |
(dynamic memory TR) | allocate a copy of a string up to specified size (function)[edit] |
This library extension also introduces assignment-allocation characterm for use with%s,%[, and%c conversion specifiers infscanf andfwscanf family of functions.
The functionsfmemopen,open_memstream,open_wmemstream,getdelim,getline,strdup,strndup, and the extensions tofscanf are available inPOSIX (ISO/IEC 9945:2003).
The functionsasprintf andvasprintf are available in Linux Standard Base (ISO/IEC IS 23360:2006)
