SDL_PRINTF_VARARG_FUNC3
Macro that annotates a vararg function that operates like printf.
Usage
#include "SDL3/SDL.h"
#define SDL_PRINTF_VARARG_FUNC( fmtargnumber ) __attribute__ (( format( __printf__, fmtargnumber, fmtargnumber+1 )))
Header file
Defined in SDL3/SDL_stdinc.h
Overview
If we were to annotate fprintf :
-
int fprintf(FILE *f, const char *fmt, ...) SDL_PRINTF_VARARG_FUNC(2);
This notes that the second parameter should be a printf-style format string, followed by ... . The compiler or other analysis tools can warn when this doesn't appear to be the case.
On compilers without this annotation mechanism, this is defined to nothing.
This can (and should) be used with
SDL_PRINTF_FORMAT_STRING
as well, which between them will cover at least Visual Studio, GCC, and Clang.
