STRCHR(3)             DragonFly Library Functions Manual             STRCHR(3)

NAME

strchr, strrchr, strchrnul -- locate character in string

LIBRARY

Standard C Library (libc, -lc)

SYNOPSIS

#include <string.h> char * strchr(const char *s, int c); char * strrchr(const char *s, int c); char * strchrnul(const char *s, int c);

DESCRIPTION

The strchr() function locates the first occurrence of c (converted to a char) in the string pointed to by s. The terminating null character is considered part of the string; therefore if c is `\0', the functions locate the terminating `\0'. The strrchr() function is identical to strchr() except it locates the last occurrence of c. The strchrnul() function is identical to strchr() except that if c is not found in s a pointer to the terminating `\0' is returned.

RETURN VALUES

The functions strchr() and strrchr() return a pointer to the located character, or NULL if the character does not appear in the string. strchrnul() returns a pointer to the terminating `\0' if the character does not appear in the string.

STANDARDS

The functions strchr() and strrchr() conform to ISO/IEC 9899:1990 (``ISO C90''). The strchrnul() is a GNU extension . History The strchrnul() function first appeared in glibc 2.1.1 and was added in FreeBSD 10.0. DragonFly 3.5 February 13, 2013 DragonFly 3.5
