<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2><PRE>
These are all functions that produces output according to a
format string and given arguments. These are mostly clones
of the well-known C-style functions and there will be no
detailed explanation of all available formatting rules and
usage here.
See this table for notable exceptions.
<B>curl_mprintf()</B>
Normal printf() clone.
<B>curl_mfprintf()</B>
Normal fprinf() clone.
<B>curl_msprintf()</B>
Normal sprintf() clone.
<B>curl_msnprintf()</B>
snprintf() clone. Many systems don't have this. It
is just like <B>sprintf</B> but with an extra argument
after the buffer that specifies the length of the
target buffer.
<B>curl_mvprintf()</B>
Normal vprintf() clone.
<B>curl_mvfprintf()</B>
Normal vfprintf() clone.
<B>curl_mvsprintf()</B>
Normal vsprintf() clone.
<B>curl_mvsnprintf()</B>
vsnprintf() clone. Many systems don't have this.
It is just like <B>vsprintf</B> but with an extra argu
ment after the buffer that specifies the length of
the target buffer.
<B>curl_maprintf()</B>
Like printf() but returns the output string as a
malloc()ed string. The returned string must be
free()ed by the receiver.
<B>curl_mvaprintf()</B>
Like curl_maprintf() but takes a va_list pointer
argument instead of a variable amount of argu
ments.
To easily use all these cloned functions instead of the nor
mal ones, #define _MPRINTF_REPLACE before you include the
<curl/mprintf.h> file. Then all the normal names like
printf, fprintf, sprintf etc will use the curl-functions
instead.
</PRE>
<H2>RETURN VALUE</H2><PRE>
The <B>curl_maprintf</B> and <B>curl_mvaprintf</B> functions return a
pointer to a newly allocated string, or NULL it it failed.
All other functions return the number of character they
actually outputed.
