Originální popis anglicky:
ttyname, ttyname_r - return name of a terminal
Návod, kniha: Linux Programmer's Manual
#include <unistd.h>
char *ttyname(int fd);
int ttyname_r(int fd, char *buf, size_t buflen);
The function
ttyname() returns a pointer to the NUL-terminated pathname
of the terminal device that is open on the file descriptor
fd, or
NULL on error (for example, if
fd is not connected to a
terminal). The return value may point to static data, possibly overwritten by
the next call. The function
ttyname_r() stores this pathname in the
buffer
buf of length
buflen.
The function
ttyname() returns a pointer to a pathname on success. On
error,
NULL is returned, and
errno is set appropriately. The
function
ttyname_r() returns 0 on success, and an error number upon
error.
Values stored in
errno by a failing
ttyname() or returned by a
failing
ttyname_r():
- EBADF
- Bad file descriptor.
- ENOTTY
- File descriptor does not refer to a terminal device.
- ERANGE
- buflen was too small to allow storing the
pathname.
