strchr

NAME

strchr, strrchr, strchrnul - locate character in string

SYNOPSIS

#include <string.h>
 I char *strchr(const char * s , int  c );
 I char *strrchr(const char * s , int  c );
 #define _GNU_SOURCE
#include <string.h>
 I char *strchrnul(const char * s , int  c );

DESCRIPTION

The R strchr () function returns a pointer to the first occurrence of the character c in the string s.
The R strrchr () function returns a pointer to the last occurrence of the character c in the string s.
The R strchrnul () function is like R strchr () except that if c is not found in s, then it returns a pointer to the null byte at the end of s, rather than NULL.
Here "character" means "byte"; these functions do not work with wide or multi-byte characters.

RETURN VALUE

The R strchr () and R strrchr () functions return a pointer to the matched character or NULL if the character is not found. The R strchrnul () function returns a pointer to the matched character, or a pointer to the null byte at the end of s (i.e., s+strlen(s)) if the character is not found.

CONFORMING TO

R strchr () and R strrchr () are in SVr4, 4.3BSD, C89, C99. R strchrnul () is a GNU extension.
