The effect of these routines is as though +\fBwgetstr\fR were called on the window, and the resulting line used as input +for \fBsscanf\fR(3). Fields which do not map to a variable in the \fIfmt\fR +field are lost. + +The \fBvwscanw\fR routine is similar to \fBvwprintw\fR in that it performs a +\fBwscanw\fR using a variable argument list. The third argument is a +\fIva\fR_\fIlist\fR, a pointer to a list of arguments, as defined in +\fB<varargs.h>\fR. +.SH RETURN VALUE +\fBvwscanw\fR returns \fBERR\fR on failure and an integer equal to the +number of fields scanned on success. + +Applications may use the return value from the \fBscanw\fR, \fBwscanw\fR, +\fBmvscanw\fR and \fBmvwscanw\fR routines to determine the number of fields +which were mapped in the call. +.SH SEE ALSO +\fBncurses\fR(3X), \fBcurs_getstr\fR, \fBcurs_printw\fR, \fBscanf\fR(3S) +.\"# +.\"# The following sets edit modes for GNU EMACS +.\"# Local Variables: +.\"# mode:nroff +.\"# fill-column:79 +.\"# End: |
