gets - get a string from a stdin stream
Návod, kniha: POSIX Programmer's Manual
#include <stdio.h>
char *gets(char *
s);
The
gets() function shall read bytes from the standard input stream,
stdin, into the array pointed to by
s, until a <newline>
is read or an end-of-file condition is encountered. Any <newline> shall
be discarded and a null byte shall be placed immediately after the last byte
read into the array.
The
gets() function may mark the
st_atime field of the file
associated with
stream for update. The
st_atime field shall be
marked for update by the first successful execution of
fgetc(),
fgets(),
fread(),
getc(),
getchar(),
gets(),
fscanf(), or
scanf() using
stream that
returns data not supplied by a prior call to
ungetc().
Upon successful completion,
gets() shall return
s. If the stream
is at end-of-file, the end-of-file indicator for the stream shall be set and
gets() shall return a null pointer. If a read error occurs, the error
indicator for the stream shall be set,
gets() shall return a null
pointer, and set
errno to indicate the error.
Refer to
fgetc() .
The following sections are informative.
None.
Reading a line that overflows the array pointed to by
s results in
undefined behavior. The use of
fgets() is recommended.
Since the user cannot specify the length of the buffer passed to
gets(),
use of this function is discouraged. The length of the string read is
unlimited. It is possible to overflow this buffer in such a way as to cause
applications to fail, or possible system security violations.
It is recommended that the
fgets() function should be used to read input
lines.
None.
