STRTOIMAX(3)                        Linux Programmer's Manual                        STRTOIMAX(3)



NAME
       strtoimax, strtoumax - convert string to integer

SYNOPSIS
       #include <inttypes.h>

       intmax_t strtoimax(const char *nptr, char **endptr, int base);
       uintmax_t strtoumax(const char *nptr, char **endptr, int base);

DESCRIPTION
       These functions are just like strtol(3) and strtoul(3), except that they return a value of
       type intmax_t and uintmax_t, respectively.

RETURN VALUE
       On success, the converted value is returned.  If nothing was found  to  convert,  zero  is
       returned.   On  overflow or underflow INTMAX_MAX or INTMAX_MIN or UINTMAX_MAX is returned,
       and errno is set to ERANGE.

ATTRIBUTES
   Multithreading (see pthreads(7))
       The strtoimax() and strtoumax() functions are thread-safe with  exceptions.   These  func‐
       tions  can  be  safely  used in multithreaded applications, as long as setlocale(3) is not
       called to change the locale during their execution.

CONFORMING TO
       C99, POSIX.1-2001.
