GNU Info (libc.info)Variadic ExampleExample of a Variadic Function ------------------------------ Here is a complete sample function that accepts a variable number of arguments. The first argument to the function is the count of remaining arguments, which are added up and the result returned. While trivial, this function is sufficient to illustrate how to use the variable arguments facility. #include <stdarg.h> #include <stdio.h> int add_em_up (int count,...) { va_list ap; int i, sum; va_start (ap, count); /* Initialize the argument list. */ sum = 0; for (i = 0; i < count; i++) sum += va_arg (ap, int); /* Get the next argument value. */ va_end (ap); /* Clean up. */ return sum; } int main (void) { /* This call prints 16. */ printf ("%d\n", add_em_up (3, 5, 5, 6)); /* This call prints 55. */ printf ("%d\n", add_em_up (10, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10)); return 0; } automatically generated by info2www version 1.2.2.9 |
