BOOTSTRAP (kutils) functions


LIBRARY ROUTINE

ksprintf - print one or more arguments in the format specified to an output string.

LIBRARY CALL

int ksprintf(
   char  *string,
   const char *format,
   kvalist)

INPUT

OUTPUT

none

RETURN VALUE

The number characters written to the output string.

DESCRIPTION

This function is a replacement for the system "sprintf" call; however, ksprint() uses data transport mechanisms to print the output string, in order to support distributed computing.

The ksprintf() function converts, formats, and writes its value parameters as specified by the format parameter to the output string given. If there are insufficient values for the format, the behavior is undefined; if the format is exhausted while values remain, the excess values are ignored.
