std::fputs - cppreference.com (original) (raw)

Writes every character from the null-terminated string str to the output stream stream, as if by repeatedly executing std::fputc.

The terminating null character from str is not written.

[edit] Parameters

str - null-terminated character string to be written
stream - output stream

[edit] Return value

On success, returns a non-negative value

On failure, returns EOF and sets the error indicator (see std::ferror) on stream.

[edit] Notes

The related function std::puts appends a newline character to the output, while std::fputs writes the string unmodified.

Different implementations return different non-negative numbers: some return the last character written, some return the number of characters written (or INT_MAX if the string was longer than that), some simply return a non-negative constant such as zero.

[edit] Example

#include   int main(void) { int rc = std::fputs("Hello World", stdout);   if (rc == EOF) std::perror("fputs()"); // POSIX requires that errno is set }

Output:
