Hi!
Here's a bug I suppose. libc manual says in
12.13.1 Registering New Conversions :
...You can redefine the built-in conversions like `%s',...
but it doesn't seems to work. I'm porting an application to linux, and
I need to maintain non-unicode+windows support. This happens with
glibc-2.3.5-0ubuntu1
Here's the code, it won't compile for as it is but you'll get the point:
#ifdef _UNICODE
/*
these can be used to redefine %s and %S to work
in windows style,
they need to be registered using register_printfs;
*/
int print_char_callback( FILE *stream,
const struct printf_info *info_box, const void
*const *args){
const char *chr;
chr = *((const char **) (args[0]));
return fprintf( stream, "%ls", char_to_TCHAR(chr));
}
int print_wchar_callback( FILE *stream,
const struct printf_info *info_box, const void
*const *args){
const TCHAR *chr;
chr = *((const TCHAR **) (args[0]));
return fprintf( stream, "%ls", chr);
}
int printf_wchars_arginfo( const struct printf_info *info, size_t n,
int *argtypes ){
if (n > 0)
argtypes[0] = PA_WSTRING;
return 1;
}
void register_printfs(){
// these work if I printf with %y
// register_printf_function('Y', print_char_callback, printf_wchars_arginfo);
// register_printf_function('y', print_wchar_callback,
printf_wchars_arginfo);
// and these below won't just work
register_printf_function('S', print_char_callback, printf_wchars_arginfo);
register_printf_function('s', print_wchar_callback, printf_wchars_arginfo);
}
#endif
