passing varargs to another function

[Ian Partridge]

Hi,

I want to write a varargs function which then passes its parameters to
another varargs function. I have RTFFAQ:

http://www.eskimo.com/~scs/C-faq/q15.12.html

which says that the other function should accept a va_list pointer to do
this. However, I can't seem to get this answer working.

Would someone mind posting a simple example of how this can be done?

Many thanks in advance,
Ian

This won't work. You need a version of plover that accepts a va_list.

static void vplover(int x,va_list L) {...}
static void plover(int x,...) {va_list L; va_start(L,x); vplover(x,L);}
static void plugh(int x,...) {va_list L; va_start(L,x); vplover(x,L); etc;}
