Function

Pangoread_line

Declaration [src]

gint
pango_read_line (
  FILE* stream,
  GString* str
)

Description [src]

Reads an entire line from a file into a buffer.

Lines may be delimited with ‘\n’, ‘\r’, ‘\n\r’, or ‘\r\n’. The delimiter is not written into the buffer. Text after a ‘#’ character is treated as a comment and skipped. ‘' can be used to escape a # character. ‘' proceeding a line delimiter combines adjacent lines. A ‘' proceeding any other character is ignored and written into the output buffer unmodified.

Parameters

`stream`	`FILE*`
	A stdio stream.
	The argument can be `NULL`.
	The data is owned by the caller of the function.
`str`	`GString*`
	`GString` buffer into which to write the result.
	The data is owned by the caller of the function.

Return value

Returns:	`gint`
	0 if the stream was already at an `EOF` character, otherwise the number of lines read (this is useful for maintaining a line number counter which doesn’t combine lines with ‘')
