Function Details : vfwscanf

intvfwscanf(FILE * stream,const wchar_t * format,va_list args) ;

Read about return values of vfwscanf function .

1st Parameter Type : FILE *

Pointer to FILE structure for file operations

1st Parameter

Pointer to the input stream from which wide-character data will be read and matched against the format string.

2nd Parameter Type : const wchar_t *

A pointer to a read-only wide-character string, where each character is of type `wchar_t`. Used for representing text in wide-character encoding to support extended character sets, such as Unicode. The string is null-terminated, with the terminator being a `wchar_t` with value 0.

2nd Parameter

Pointer to a null-terminated wide-character string specifying the format to interpret the input. It may include format specifiers like `%ls`, `%d`, etc.

3rd Parameter Type : va_list

A data type used to hold information about variable arguments passed to a variadic function. It is initialized with `va_start`, used with `va_arg`, and cleaned up with `va_end`.

3rd Parameter

A `va_list` object containing pointers to variables where the parsed input values will be stored. The `va_list` must be initialized with `va_start`.

The vfwscanffunction in C language Reads formatted wide character input from a stream using a va_list.
vfwscanf is similar to fwscanf, but instead of taking a variable number of arguments, it takes a va_list that has been initialized by va_start. This function is useful for implementing custom variadic functions that need to forward their arguments to fwscanf for wide character input parsing.
The vfwscanffunction takes 3 parameters:
  • •
    FILE * `stream`: Pointer to the input stream from which wide-character data will be read and matched against the format string.
  • •
    const wchar_t * `format`: Pointer to a null-terminated wide-character string specifying the format to interpret the input. It may include format specifiers like `%ls`, `%d`, etc.
  • •
    va_list `args`: A `va_list` object containing pointers to variables where the parsed input values will be stored. The `va_list` must be initialized with `va_start`.
Reads wide-character input from the specified `stream` and matches it against the format string `format`. The extracted values are stored in the locations specified by the `va_list` object `args`. Returns the number of successfully matched and assigned input items, or `EOF` if an error occurs or the end of the input stream is reached before any matches.
The vfwscanf function return value :
  • Returns the number of input items successfully matched and assigned, or EOF if an error occurred before any conversion

Output

This example demonstrates using vfwscanf in a custom function to read formatted wide character data from a file.
