line_buffer API
|
|
===============
|
|
|
|
The line_buffer library provides a convenient interface for
|
|
mostly-line-oriented input.
|
|
|
|
Each line is not permitted to exceed 10000 bytes. The provided
|
|
functions are not thread-safe or async-signal-safe, and like
|
|
`fgets()`, they generally do not function correctly if interrupted
|
|
by a signal without SA_RESTART set.
|
|
|
|
Calling sequence
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
The calling program:
|
|
|
|
- specifies a file to read with `buffer_init`
|
|
- processes input with `buffer_read_line`, `buffer_read_string`,
|
|
`buffer_skip_bytes`, and `buffer_copy_bytes`
|
|
- closes the file with `buffer_deinit`, perhaps to start over and
|
|
read another file.
|
|
|
|
Before exiting, the caller can use `buffer_reset` to deallocate
|
|
resources for the benefit of profiling tools.
|
|
|
|
Functions
|
|
---------
|
|
|
|
`buffer_init`::
|
|
Open the named file for input. If filename is NULL,
|
|
start reading from stdin. On failure, returns -1 (with
|
|
errno indicating the nature of the failure).
|
|
|
|
`buffer_deinit`::
|
|
Stop reading from the current file (closing it unless
|
|
it was stdin). Returns nonzero if `fclose` fails or
|
|
the error indicator was set.
|
|
|
|
`buffer_read_line`::
|
|
Read a line and strip off the trailing newline.
|
|
On failure or end of file, returns NULL.
|
|
|
|
`buffer_read_string`::
|
|
Read `len` characters of input or up to the end of the
|
|
file, whichever comes first. Returns NULL on error.
|
|
Returns whatever characters were read (possibly "")
|
|
for end of file.
|
|
|
|
`buffer_copy_bytes`::
|
|
Read `len` bytes of input and dump them to the standard output
|
|
stream. Returns early for error or end of file.
|
|
|
|
`buffer_skip_bytes`::
|
|
Discards `len` bytes from the input stream (stopping early
|
|
if necessary because of an error or eof).
|
|
|
|
`buffer_reset`::
|
|
Deallocates non-static buffers.
