buffer_getnewline_sa(3)                     DragonFly Library Functions Manual

NAME
       buffer_getnewline_sa - read line from buffer

SYNTAX
       #include <stralloc.h>
       #include <buffer.h>

       int buffer_getnewline_sa(buffer* b,stralloc* sa);

DESCRIPTION
       buffer_getnewline_sa copies data from the b to sa until a '\n' is
       found, overwriting the previous content of sa.  The new-line is also
       appended to sa.

       If reading from the buffer or allocating memory fails,
       buffer_getnewline_sa returns -1 and sets errno appropriately.  At that
       point sa may be empty or it may already contain a partial token.

       To read from a non-blocking socket, use buffer_getline_sa.

RETURN VALUE
       -1 on error (setting errno), 0 on EOF, 1 when successful.
