Function

GLibprintf

since: 2.2

Declaration

gint
g_printf (
  const gchar* format,
  ...
)

Description

An implementation of the standard printf() function which supports positional parameters, as specified in the Single Unix Specification.

As with the standard printf(), this does not automatically append a trailing new-line character to the message, so typically format should end with its own new-line character.

glib/gprintf.h must be explicitly included in order to use this function.

Available since: 2.2

This function is not directly available to language bindings.

Type: 

The arguments to insert in the output.
