# =========================================================================== # https://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf-archive/ax_printf_size_t.html # =========================================================================== # # SYNOPSIS # # AX_PRINTF_SIZE_T # # DESCRIPTION # # Check for the appropriate printf() format string modifier to use with a # size_t argument. If a suitable modifier is found, it is AC_DEFINE'd as # PRI_SIZE_T_MODIFIER, and can be used in C code as e.g. # # printf("Size = %" PRI_SIZE_T_MODIFIER "u bytes.\n", sizeof(foo)); # # If you use the PRIxNN macros from ISO C99's , you may wish # to define a supplemental set of macros along similar lines: # # #define PRIdSIZE PRI_SIZE_T_MODIFIER "d" # #define PRIiSIZE PRI_SIZE_T_MODIFIER "i" # #define PRIoSIZE PRI_SIZE_T_MODIFIER "o" # #define PRIuSIZE PRI_SIZE_T_MODIFIER "u" # #define PRIxSIZE PRI_SIZE_T_MODIFIER "x" # #define PRIXSIZE PRI_SIZE_T_MODIFIER "X" # # Note: This macro invokes a test program to check whether a given format # modifier is understood by the system's sprintf() function. If the user # is cross-compiling, then this check cannot be performed, and thereby # PRI_SIZE_T_MODIFIER will remain undefined. # # LICENSE # # Copyright (c) 2012 Daniel Richard G. # # Copying and distribution of this file, with or without modification, are # permitted in any medium without royalty provided the copyright notice # and this notice are preserved.
