NAME

buffer_getline - read line from buffer

SYNTAX

#include <libowfat/buffer.h>

ssize_t buffer_getline (buffer* b ,char* x ,size_t len );

DESCRIPTION

buffer_getline copies data from b to x [0], x [1], ..., x [ len -1] until len bytes have been copied or a new-line character (’\n’) is encountered. That character is also copied.

Note that line is not 0-terminated to make reading lines with 0-bytes possible through this interface.

RETURN VALUE

Number of bytes read (without ’\n’), -1 on error (setting errno ).
