GMP Native Interface for .NET
gmp_libgmp_snprintf Method |
Form a null-terminated string in buf.
Namespace: Math.Gmp.Native
Assembly: Math.Gmp.Native (in Math.Gmp.Native.dll) Version: 1.0.0.0 (1.0.0.0)

public static int gmp_snprintf( char_ptr buf, size_t size, string fmt, params Object[] args )
Public Shared Function gmp_snprintf ( buf As char_ptr, size As size_t, fmt As String, ParamArray args As Object() ) As Integer
public: static int gmp_snprintf( char_ptr buf, size_t size, String^ fmt, ... array<Object^>^ args )
static member gmp_snprintf : buf : char_ptr * size : size_t * fmt : string * args : Object[] -> int
Parameters
- buf
- Type: Math.Gmp.Nativechar_ptr
The string to print to. - size
- Type: Math.Gmp.Nativesize_t
The maximum number of bytes to write. - fmt
- Type: SystemString
Format string. See Formatted Output Strings. - args
- Type: SystemObject
Arguments.
Return Value
Type: Int32The return value is the total number of characters which ought to have been produced, excluding the terminating null. If retval ≥ size then the actual output has been truncated to the first size - 1 characters, and a null appended.

No more than size bytes will be written. To get the full output, size must be enough for the string and null-terminator.
No overlap is permitted between the region {buf,size} and the fmt string.
Notice the return value is in ISO C99 snprintf style. This is so even if the C library vsnprintf is the older GLIBC 2.0.x style.
