I have a function:
void f(char* format, ...)
{
va_list args;
char buf[128];
sprintf(buf, format, args);
printf(buf);
}
But I can't get sprintf to properly take the args I have given to f(). I can't
seem to find any examples on passing a va_list.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

What you want is vsprintf and not sprintf. Remember to call va_start before
making the call to vsprintf and call va_end after the call returns. Look
up your favorite C book or manual for more details.
-nrk.

Try vsprintf.

Morning all,
I'm converting my windows exe into a windows service and to get some
log information I'm replacing TRACE with my own Log.
Since some of the Trace statements take a number of arguments I want to
be able to stuff any number of arguments into my log, as in sprintf.
eg Log( "%s %i Hello", "Hi", 23) gives me 122334 !£., Hello with the
following code.

I have a program that uses a scripting language that does not support formating
strings with a printf syntax. Thus, I am writing a plugin to add the
functionality. The entry point and argument passing of the scripting language
to my plugin does not use standard c va_arg/list arguments for arbitrary number
of arguments but a c++ container object to achieve a similar approach.
I thought I could just construct my own array with the arguments...

Hi folks!
I have a function that gets a 'va_list'. I am passing the
'va_list' two times to a function like 'vprintf' to print
it out.
I thought that this was portable until I came across a
platform (AS/400) where it fails: The 'va_list' is actually
defined as some some kind of an array, so passing it happens
by *reference*: The first user will destroy it and the second

I'm trying to develop (for my own personal use) a general
"messaging facility" in C. The idea is that the facility will be
used for both debugging/logging and user interfacing. I'd like it
to be fairly portable, but as robust and reliable as possible.
My intent is to develop an API for such general messaging. I'll
implement the parts that write to stdout, stderr and files. Later,
I'll add support for writing to (for example) syslog,...

Is it possible to have a function with variable number of parameters

Reading the standard, va_list is an object type (, so I believe the
following should be possible:
#include <stdarg.h>
void foo(va_list *arg)
{
/* do some stuff which conditionally might read parameters off arg */

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:
