Hi,
I want to define a function log_file(), that would print the
formatted message to stdout if the FILE pointer passed is NULL else
print the formatted output to the file corresponding to FILE*.
For eg.
extern FILE *fp;
int main(void)
{
int n1=0;
int n2=100;
log_file(fp, "SOME MESSAGE n1=%d n2=%d\n", n1, n2);
}
I want that, log_file() should print the formatted output to stdout,
in case fp is NULL, else
print the output to the corresponding file.
Can some one please help ? I tried my best, but could not find any
solution.
thanks a lot for any help. 6 2478

Hi junky fellow,
The following doesn't deal with your extern fp, because it represents
a single translation unit that compiles and links. Nevertheless, I
hope it gives you an idea of how you can solve your problem.
#include <stdarg.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#define MAX_MSG_LENGTH 256 /*or whatever size you need*/
static FILE *G_fp = NULL;
static void log_file(FILE *fp, const char *format, ...);
int main(void)
{
int n1 = 0;
int n2 = 100;
log_file(G_fp, "SOME MESSAGE n1 = %d and n2 = %d\n", n1, n2);
return 0;
}
static void log_file(FILE *fp, const char *format, ...)
{
va_list arg_ptr;
char text[MAX_MSG_LENGTH + 1];
va_start(arg_pt r, format);
vsprintf(text, format, arg_ptr);
va_end(arg_ptr) ;
if ( fp )
{
fprintf(fp, "%s", text);
}
else
{
fprintf(stdout, "%s", text);
}
}

int logfile(FILE *f, ...){
/* after processing argument list */
if (f == NULL) f = stdout;
return fprintf(...);}
The real issue is what you are going to do with the format string and
the subsequent arguments. Do you really intend to generate your own
code to duplicate the functionality of the *printf functions?
You could make life easy on yourself and use sprintf to perform all
the hard work and then use the much simpler
int logfile(FILE *f, const char *s){
if (f == NULL) f = stdout;
return fputs(s, f);}
At this point, logfile would hardly merit a function and could be
replaced by a macro.

Make it real simple:
#define OUTFILE(f) ((f)?(f):stdout )
then to log:
fprintf( OUTFILE(fp), format, <arguments);

Better:

{
va_list argp;
assert(msg != NULL);

static void vfile_log(FILE *flog, const char *message, va_list argp)

....
if (flog && message)
{
(void) vfprintf(flog, message, argp);
(void) fprintf(flog, "\n");
fflush(flog);
}

This has got to be obvious, but I can't make it work.
I have a form called with 3 pull down menus. They are linked to a database
which generates the values for the <SELECT? Pull-downs.
Lets say I have values selected for all three pull down menus.
When I change the first "top-level" menu I want to reset both the second and
third menus to the "default" state.

Look at function CreateDragContainer() on line 25. It has no

to process its input. I poked around and found this is deprecated.
How do you pass an unknown number of arguments to a function? Put
them in an array?
