-<p>
-<b>SYNOPSIS</b>
-<p>
-<div class="fragment"><pre>
-cc ... -ltrio -lm
-
-#include &lt;trio.h&gt;
-#include &lt;triop.h&gt;
-</pre></div>
-<p>
-<b>DESCRIPTION</b>
-<p>
-This documentation is incomplete.
-<p>
-<b>User-defined</b> <b>Specifier</b>
-<p>
-The user-defined specifier consists of a start character (\074 = '&lt;'), an optional namespace string followed by a namespace separator (\072 = ':'), a format string, and an end character (\076 = '&gt;').
-<p>
-The namespace string can consist of alphanumeric characters, and is used to define a named reference (see below). The namespace is case-sensitive. If no namespace is specified, then we use an unnamed reference (see below).
-<p>
-The format can consist of any character except the end character ('&gt;'), the namespace separator (':'), and the nil character (\000).
-<p>
-Any modifier can be used together with the user-defined specifier.
-<p>
-<b>Registering</b>
-<p>
-A user-defined specifier must be registered before it can be used. Unregistered user-defined specifiers are ignored. The <a class="el" href="group___user_defined.html#a0">trio_register</a> function is used to register a user-defined specifier. It takes two argument, a callback function and a namespace, and it returns a handle. The handle must be used to unregister the specifier later.
-<p>
-The following example registers a user-define specifier with the "my_namespace" namespace:
-<p>
-<div class="fragment"><pre>
- my_handle = trio_register(my_callback, "my_namespace");
-</pre></div>
-<p>
-There can only be one user-defined specifier with a given namespace. There can be an unlimited number (subject to maximum length of the namespace) of different user-defined specifiers.
-<p>
-Passing NULL as the namespace argument results in an anonymous reference. There can be an unlimited number of anonymous references.
-<p>
-<b>REFERENCES</b>
-<p>
-There are two ways that a registered callback can be called. Either the user-defined specifier must contain the registered namespace in the format string, or the handle is passed as an argument to the formatted printing function.
-<p>
-If the namespace is used, then a user-defined pointer must be passed as an argument:
-<p>
-<div class="fragment"><pre>
- trio_printf("&lt;my_namespace:format&gt;\n", my_data);
-</pre></div>
-<p>
-If the handle is used, then the user-defined specifier must not contain a namespace. Instead the handle must be passed as an argument, followed by a user-defined pointer:
-<p>
-<div class="fragment"><pre>
- trio_printf("&lt;format&gt;\n", my_handle, my_data);
-</pre></div>
-<p>
-The two examples above are equivalent.
-<p>
-There must be exactly one user-defined pointer per user-defined specifier. This pointer can be used within the callback function with the trio_get_argument getter function (see below).
-<p>
-The format string is optional. It can be used within the callback function with the trio_get_format getter function.
-<p>
-<b>Anonymous</b> <b>References</b> Anonymous references are specified by passing NULL as the namespace.
-<p>
-The handle must be passed as an argument followed by a user-defined pointer. No namespace can be specified.
-<p>
-<div class="fragment"><pre>
- anon_handle = trio_register(callback, NULL);
- trio_printf("&lt;format&gt;\n", anon_handle, my_data);
-</pre></div>
-<p>
-<b>Restrictions</b>
-<p>
-<ul>
-<li> The length of the namespace string cannot exceed 63 characters. <li> The length of the user-defined format string cannot exceed 255 characters. <li> User-defined formatting cannot re-define existing specifiers. This restriction was imposed because the existing formatting specifiers have a well-defined behaviour, and any re-definition would apply globally to an application (imagine a third-party library changing the behaviour of a specifier that is crusial to your application).</ul>
-<b>CALLBACK</b> <b>FUNCTION</b>
-<p>
-The callback function will be called if a matching user-defined specifier is found within the formatting string. The callback function takes one input parameter, an opaque reference which is needed by the private functions. It returns an <code>int</code>, which is currently ignored. The prototype is
-<p>
-<div class="fragment"><pre>
- int (*trio_callback_t)(void *ref);
-</pre></div>
-<p>
-See the Example section for full examples.
-<p>
-<b>PRINTING</b> <b>FUNCTIONS</b>
-<p>
-The following printing functions must only be used inside a callback function. These functions will print to the same output medium as the printf function which invoked the callback function. For example, if the user-defined specifier is used in an sprintf function, then these print functions will output their result to the same string.
-<p>
-<b>Elementary</b> <b>Printing</b>
-<p>
-There are a number of function to print elementary data types.
-<p>
-<ul>
-<li> trio_print_int Print a signed integer. For example: <div class="fragment"><pre>
- trio_print_int(42);
-</pre></div> <li> trio_print_uint Print an unsigned integer. <li> trio_print_double Print a floating-point number. <li> trio_print_string Print a string. For example: <div class="fragment"><pre>
- trio_print_string("Hello World");
- trio_print_string(trio_get_format());
-</pre></div> <li> trio_print_pointer Print a pointer.</ul>
-<b>Formatted</b> <b>Printing</b>
-<p>
-The functions trio_print_ref, trio_vprint_ref, and trio_printv_ref outputs a formatted string just like its printf equivalents.
-<p>
-<div class="fragment"><pre>
- trio_print_ref(ref, "There are %d towels\n", 42);
- trio_print_ref(ref, "%&lt;recursive&gt;\n", recursive_writer, trio_get_argument());
-</pre></div>
-<p>
-<b>GETTER</b> <b>AND</b> <b>SETTER</b> <b>FUNCTIONS</b>
-<p>
-The following getter and setter functions must only be used inside a callback function. They can either operate on the modifiers or on special data.
-<p>
-<b>Modifiers</b>
-<p>
-The value of a modifier, or a boolean indication of its presence or absence, can be found or set with the getter and setter functions. The generic prototypes of the these getter and setter functions are
-<p>
-<div class="fragment"><pre>
- int trio_get_???(void *ref);
- void trio_set_???(void *ref, int);
-</pre></div>
-<p>
-where ??? <code>refers</code> to a modifier. For example, to get the width of the user-defined specifier use
-<p>
-<div class="fragment"><pre>
- int width = trio_get_width(ref);
-</pre></div>
-<p>
-<b>Special</b> <b>Data</b>
-<p>
-Consider the following user-defined specifier, in its two possible referencing presentations.
-<p>
-<div class="fragment"><pre>
- trio_printf("%&lt;format&gt;\n", namespace_writer, argument);
- trio_printf("%&lt;namespace:format&gt;\n", argument);
-</pre></div>
-<p>
-trio_get_format will get the <code>format</code> string, and trio_get_argument} will get the <code>argument</code> parameter. There are no associated setter functions.
-<p>
-<b>EXAMPLES</b>
-<p>
-The following examples show various types of user-defined specifiers. Although each specifier is demonstrated in isolation, they can all co-exist within the same application.
-<p>
-<b>Time</b> <b>Example</b>
-<p>
-Print the time in the format "HOUR:MINUTE:SECOND" if "time" is specified inside the user-defined specifier.
-<p>
-<div class="fragment"><pre>
- static int time_writer(void *ref)
- {
- const char *format;
- time_t *data;
- char buffer[256];
-
- format = trio_get_format(ref);
- if ((format) &amp;&amp; (strcmp(format, "time") == 0)) {
- data = trio_get_argument(ref);
- if (data == NULL)
- return -1;
- strftime(buffer, sizeof(buffer), "%H:%M:%S", localtime(data));
- trio_print_string(ref, buffer);
- }
- return 0;
- }
-</pre></div>
-<p>
-<div class="fragment"><pre>
- int main(void)
- {
- void *handle;
- time_t now = time(NULL);
-
- handle = trio_register(time_print, "my_time");
-
- trio_printf("%&lt;time&gt;\n", handle, &amp;now);
- trio_printf("%&lt;my_time:time&gt;\n", &amp;now);
-
- trio_unregister(handle);
- return 0;
- }
-</pre></div>
-<p>
-<b>Complex</b> <b>Numbers</b> <b>Example</b>
-<p>
-Consider a complex number consisting of a real part, re, and an imaginary part, im.
-<p>
-<div class="fragment"><pre>
- struct Complex {
- double re;
- double im;
- };
-</pre></div>
-<p>
-This example can print such a complex number in one of two formats. The default format is "re + i im". If the alternative modifier is used, then the format is "r exp(i theta)", where r is the length of the complex vector (re, im) and theta is its angle.
-<p>
-<div class="fragment"><pre>
- static int complex_print(void *ref)
- {
- struct Complex *data;
- const char *format;
-
- data = (struct Complex *)trio_get_argument(ref);
- if (data) {
- format = trio_get_format(ref);
-
- if (trio_get_alternative(ref)) {
- double r, theta;
-
- r = sqrt(pow(data-&gt;re, 2) + pow(data-&gt;im, 2));
- theta = acos(data-&gt;re / r);
- trio_print_ref(ref, "%#f exp(i %#f)", r, theta);
-
- } else {
- trio_print_ref(ref, "%#f + i %#f", data-&gt;re, data-&gt;im);
- }
- }
- return 0;
- }
-</pre></div>
-<p>
-<div class="fragment"><pre>
- int main(void)
- {
- void *handle;
-
- handle = trio_register(complex_print, "complex");
-
- /* Normal format. With handle and the with namespace */
- trio_printf("%&lt;&gt;\n", handle, &amp;complex);
- trio_printf("%&lt;complex:&gt;\n", &amp;complex);
- /* In exponential notation */
- trio_printf("%#&lt;&gt;\n", handle, &amp;complex);
- trio_printf("%#&lt;complex:unused data&gt;\n", &amp;complex);
-
- trio_unregister(handle);
- return 0;
- }
-</pre></div>
-<p>
-<b>RETURN</b> <b>VALUES</b>
-<p>
-<a class="el" href="group___user_defined.html#a0">trio_register</a> returns a handle, or NULL if an error occured.
-<p>
-<b>SEE</b> <b>ALSO</b>
-<p>
-<a class="el" href="group___printf.html#a0">trio_printf</a>
-<p>
-<b>NOTES</b>
-<p>
-User-defined specifiers, <a class="el" href="group___user_defined.html#a0">trio_register</a>, and <a class="el" href="group___user_defined.html#a1">trio_unregister</a> are not thread-safe. In multi-threaded applications they must be guarded by mutexes. Trio provides two special callback functions, called ":enter" and ":leave", which are invoked every time a thread-unsafe operation is attempted. As the thread model is determined by the application, these callback functions must be implemented by the application.
-<p>
-The following callback functions are for demonstration-purposes only. Replace their bodies with locking and unlocking of a mutex to achieve thread-safety. <div class="fragment"><pre>
- static int enter_region(void *ref)
- {
- fprintf(stderr, "Enter Region\n");
- return 1;
- }
-
- static int leave_region(void *ref)
- {
- fprintf(stderr, "Leave Region\n");
- return 1;
- }
-</pre></div> These two callbacks must be registered before other callbacks are registered. <div class="fragment"><pre>
- trio_register(enter_region, ":enter");
- trio_register(leave_region, ":leave");
-
- another_handle = trio_register(another_callback, NULL);
