curs_scanw (3X)                                                                                curs_scanw (3X)



NAME
       scanw, wscanw, mvscanw, mvwscanw, vwscanw, vw_scanw - convert formatted input from a curses window

SYNOPSIS
       #include <curses.h>

       int scanw(char *fmt, ...);
       int wscanw(WINDOW *win, char *fmt, ...);
       int mvscanw(int y, int x, char *fmt, ...);
       int mvwscanw(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, char *fmt, ...);
       int vw_scanw(WINDOW *win, char *fmt, va_list varglist);
       int vwscanw(WINDOW *win, char *fmt, va_list varglist);

DESCRIPTION
       The  scanw,  wscanw  and mvscanw routines are analogous to scanf [see scanf(3)].  The effect of these
       routines is as though wgetstr were called on the window, and the resulting line  used  as  input  for
       sscanf(3).  Fields which do not map to a variable in the fmt field are lost.

       The  vwscanw  and  vw_scanw routines are analogous to vscanf.  They perform a wscanw using a variable
       argument list.  The third argument is a va_list, a pointer to a list  of  arguments,  as  defined  in
       <stdarg.h>.

RETURN VALUE
       vwscanw returns ERR on failure and an integer equal to the number of fields scanned on success.

       Applications may use the return value from the scanw, wscanw, mvscanw and mvwscanw routines to deter-mine determine
       mine the number of fields which were mapped in the call.

PORTABILITY
       The XSI Curses standard, Issue 4 describes these functions.  The function vwscanw  is  marked  TO  BE
       WITHDRAWN,  and  is to be replaced by a function vw_scanw using the <stdarg.h> interface.  The Single
       Unix Specification, Version 2 states that vw_scanw  is preferred to vwscanw since the latter requires
       including <varargs.h>, which cannot be used in the same file as <stdarg.h>.  This implementation uses
       <stdarg.h> for both, because that header is included in <curses.h>.

       Both XSI and The Single Unix Specification, Version 2 state that these functions return  ERR  or  OK.
       Since  the  underlying scanf can return the number of items scanned, and the SVr4 code was documented
       to use this feature, this is probably an editing error which was introduced in XSI, rather than being
       done  intentionally.  Portable applications should only test if the return value is ERR, since the OK
       value (zero) is likely to be misleading.  One possible way to get useful results would be  to  use  a
       "%n" conversion at the end of the format string to ensure that something was processed.
