There is no such thing as *the C library*; there are, however, several
implementations.

If you work with an open source platform, there's no problem -- just
Google for it.

If you don't, you'll have to contact your vendor (and likely pay a
considerable fee).

The other thing is that the `stdio.h and stdlib.h' are *headers*
containing principally declarations of library functions, not their
implementations.

In VisualC6 lib sources ARE included.
I have the "Enterprise" edition.
Don't know, if sources are also included for
cheaper versions (probably not).

Ha! Have you /looked/ at them?

Next time you have a moment, check out the source for, say, printf.
Here's the version that accompanied the v5 release (with much elision
of whitespace):

int __cdecl printf (
const char *format,
...
)
/** stdout 'PRINT', 'F'ormatted */
{
va_list arglist;
int buffing;
int retval;
va_start(arglist, format);
_ASSERTE(format != NULL);
_lock_str2(1, stdout);
buffing = _stbuf(stdout);
retval = _output(stdout,format,arglist);
_ftbuf(buffing, stdout);
_unlock_str2(1, stdout);
return(retval);
}

*Very* helpful to those of you planning on writing your own printf
mods, isn't it?

There's hundreds of implementations, including a variety of open-source ones
you can download from the Internet (the GNU C library is especially widely
used).

If you want access to the source code for a proprietary implementation (like
Microsoft's), you need to contact the company an negotiate terms,
non-disclosure agreements, etc.
