Did you have a look in the meantime?

I actually was looking at this today.

Couple of immediate points:

1. In ORIENT, you do a fp->flags != __SORD (should be "|= ")

Ouch! Thanks for spotting.


2. ORIENT should not check the value of ori. It is only 0 in one case when fwide
is used so fwide should check for 0 and not call ORIENT in that case.

Fine with me.


3. There doesn't seem to be orientation for the printf family while the scanf family is covered
via vfscanf.

Hmm, you seem to be right. I examined the FreeBSD sources again since I was pretty sure that the code path will result in calling ORIENT when calling any printf function. But it really looks like printf doesn't set the orientation. A bug in the FreeBSD sources? __sfvwrite_r might be a good point to call ORIENT, right?

I decided just to put it in _VFPRINT_R after the lock. Seemed consistent.
I can fix these myself if you like or you can resubmit if you would like to test.

I have no problems if you fix that.


Done. I also changed references to stdin and stdout in wchar.h so they basically expand as they do in stdio.h.

I think Craig's idea to move the functions to a wchar directory is a reasonable idea. I am going to check the code in the stdio directory for now as we are really close to the snapshot and I have other things to do. I want people to have a chance to find any problems before the snapshot and if I don't get a chance to do the move or run into any problems, the functions will be available.

Thanks Corinna for doing this.
Thanks,
Corinna
