fgetpwent - get password file entry
Návod, kniha: Linux Programmer's Manual
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <pwd.h>
struct passwd *fgetpwent(FILE *stream);
The
fgetpwent() function returns a pointer to a structure containing the
broken out fields of a line in the file
stream. The first time it is
called it returns the first entry; thereafter, it returns successive entries.
The file
stream must have the same format as
/etc/passwd.
The
passwd structure is defined in
<pwd.h> as follows:
struct passwd {
char *pw_name; /* user name */
char *pw_passwd; /* user password */
uid_t pw_uid; /* user id */
gid_t pw_gid; /* group id */
char *pw_gecos; /* real name */
char *pw_dir; /* home directory */
char *pw_shell; /* shell program */
};
The
fgetpwent() function returns the passwd structure, or NULL if there
are no more entries or an error occurs.
- ENOMEM
- Insufficient memory to allocate passwd structure.
- /etc/passwd
- password database file
