This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.
The Linux implementation of this interface may differ (consult
the corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior),
or the interface may not be implemented on Linux.

.SH DESCRIPTION
.LP
The \fIvprintf\fP(), \fIvfprintf\fP(), \fIvsnprintf\fP(), and \fIvsprintf\fP()
functions shall be equivalent to \fIprintf\fP(), \fIfprintf\fP(),
\fIsnprintf\fP(), and \fIsprintf\fP() respectively,
except that instead of being called with a variable number of arguments,
they are called with an argument list as defined by \fI<stdarg.h>\fP.
.LP
These functions shall not invoke the \fIva_end\fP macro. As these
functions invoke the \fIva_arg\fP macro, the value of
\fIap\fP after the return is unspecified.
.SH RETURN VALUE
.LP
Refer to \fIfprintf\fP().
.SH ERRORS
.LP
Refer to \fIfprintf\fP().
.LP
\fIThe following sections are informative.\fP
.SH EXAMPLES
.LP
None.
.SH APPLICATION USAGE
.LP
Applications using these functions should call \fIva_end\fP(\fIap\fP)
afterwards to clean up.
.SH RATIONALE
.LP
None.
.SH FUTURE DIRECTIONS
.LP
None.
.SH SEE ALSO
