stdarg.h中定义处理可变参数函数的方法。我们常用的printf,scanf等函数,都是以此做处理的,平时写代码的时候很少使用到,但是学习多一种方法,明白更多使用方法。其实变参数的实现是通过编译时参数压入栈的位置去查找的。而正确处理需要给出对应的结构类型,因为需要根据结构大小取数据值。明白了这个原理,理解并写处理不定参数的函数并不难。
Variable arguments handling
This header defines macros to access the individual arguments of a list of unnamed arguments whose number and types are not known to the called function.
A function may accept a varying number of additional arguments without corresponding parameter declarations by including a comma and three dots (
,...) after its regular named parameters:
return_type function_name ( parameter_declarations , ... );
To access these additional arguments the macros va_start, va_arg and va_end, declared in this header, can be used:
- First, va_start initializes the list of variable arguments as ava_list.
- Subsequent executions of va_arg yield the values of the additional arguments in the same order as passed to the function.
- Finally, va_end shall be executed before the function returns.
