Any conflict between the requirements described here and the +ISO\ C standard is unintentional. This volume of POSIX.1\(hy2017 defers to the ISO\ C standard. +.P +The +\fIfputs\fR() +function shall write the null-terminated string pointed to by +.IR s +to the stream pointed to by +.IR stream . +The terminating null byte shall not be written. +.P +The last data modification and last file status change timestamps +of the file shall be marked for update between the successful +execution of +\fIfputs\fR() +and the next successful completion of a call to +\fIfflush\fR() +or +\fIfclose\fR() +on the same stream or a call to +\fIexit\fR() +or +\fIabort\fR(). +.SH "RETURN VALUE" +Upon successful completion, +\fIfputs\fR() +shall return a non-negative number. Otherwise, it shall return EOF, +set an error indicator for the stream, +and set +.IR errno +to indicate the error. +.SH ERRORS +Refer to +.IR "\fIfputc\fR\^(\|)". +.LP +.IR "The following sections are informative." +.SH EXAMPLES +.SS "Printing to Standard Output" +.P +The following example gets the current time, converts it to a string +using +\fIlocaltime\fR() +and +\fIasctime\fR(), +and prints it to standard output using +\fIfputs\fR(). +It then prints the number of minutes to an event for which it is +waiting. +.sp +.RS 4 +.nf + +#include <time.h> +#include <stdio.h> +\&... +time_t now; +int minutes_to_event; +\&... +time(&now); +printf("The time is "); +fputs(asctime(localtime(&now)), stdout); +printf("There are still %d minutes to the event.\en", + minutes_to_event); +\&... +.fi +.P +.RE +.SH "APPLICATION USAGE" +The +\fIputs\fR() +function appends a +<newline> +while +\fIfputs\fR() +does not. +.P +This volume of POSIX.1\(hy2017 requires that successful completion simply return a non-negative +integer. There are at least three known different implementation +conventions for this requirement: +.IP " *" 4 +Return a constant value. +.IP " *" 4 +Return the last character written. +.IP " *" 4 +Return the number of bytes written. Note that this implementation +convention cannot be adhered to for strings longer than +{INT_MAX} +bytes as the value would not be representable in the return type of the +function. For backwards-compatibility, implementations can return the +number of bytes for strings of up to +{INT_MAX} +bytes, and return +{INT_MAX} +for all longer strings. +.SH RATIONALE +The +\fIfputs\fR() +function is one whose source code was specified in the referenced \fIThe C Programming Language\fP. In the +original edition, the function had no defined return value, yet many +practical implementations would, as a side-effect, return the value of the +last character written as that was the value remaining in the accumulator +used as a return value. In the second edition of the book, either the +fixed value 0 or EOF would be returned depending upon the return value of +\fIferror\fR(); +however, for compatibility with extant implementations, several +implementations would, upon success, return a positive value representing +the last byte written. +.SH "FUTURE DIRECTIONS" +None. +.SH "SEE ALSO" +.IR "Section 2.5" ", " "Standard I/O Streams", +.IR "\fIfopen\fR\^(\|)", +.IR "\fIputc\fR\^(\|)", +.IR "\fIputs\fR\^(\|)" +.P +The Base Definitions volume of POSIX.1\(hy2017, +.IR "\fB<stdio.h>\fP" +.\" +.SH COPYRIGHT +Portions of this text are reprinted and reproduced in electronic form +from IEEE Std 1003.1-2017, Standard for Information Technology +-- Portable Operating System Interface (POSIX), The Open Group Base +Specifications Issue 7, 2018 Edition, +Copyright (C) 2018 by the Institute of +Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Inc and The Open Group. +In the event of any discrepancy between this version and the original IEEE and +The Open Group Standard, the original IEEE and The Open Group Standard +is the referee document.
