HELPLIB.HLB  —  CRTL  wprintf
    Performs formatted output from the standard output (stdout). See
    Chapter 2 for information on format specifiers.

    Format

      #include  <wchar.h>

      int wprintf  (const wchar_t *format, . . . );

1  –  Arguments

 format

    A pointer to a wide-character string containing the format
    specifications.

  . . .

    Optional expressions whose resultant types correspond to
    conversion specifications given in the format specification.

    If no conversion specifications are given, the output sources can
    be omitted. Otherwise, the function calls must have exactly as
    many output sources as there are conversion specifications, and
    the conversion specifications must match the types of the output
    sources.

    Conversion specifications are matched to output sources in left-
    to-right order. Excess output pointers, if any, are ignored.

2  –  Description

    The wprintf function is equivalent to the fwprintf function with
    the stdout argument interposed before the wprintf arguments.

3  –  Return Values

    n                  The number of wide characters written.
    Negative value     Indicates an error. The function sets errno to
                       one of the following:

                       o  EILSEQ - Invalid character detected.

                       o  EINVAL - Insufficient arguments.

                       o  ENOMEM - Not enough memory available for
                          conversion.

                       o  ERANGE - Floating-point calculations
                          overflow.

                       o  EVMSERR - Nontranslatable OpenVMS error.
                          vaxc$errno contains the OpenVMS error code.
                          This might indicate that conversion to a
                          numeric value failed because of overflow.

                       The function can also set errno to the
                       following as a result of errors returned from
                       the I/O subsystem:

                       o  EBADF - The file descriptor is not valid.

                       o  EIO - I/O error.

                       o  ENOSPC - No free space on the device
                          containing the file.

                       o  ENXIO - Device does not exist.

                       o  EPIPE - Broken pipe.

                       o  ESPIPE - Illegal seek in a file opened for
                          append.

                       o  EVMSERR - Nontranslatable OpenVMS error.
                          vaxc$errno contains the OpenVMS error code.
                          This indicates that an I/O error occurred
                          for which there is no equivalent C error
                          code.
