I was just reading the glibc sscanfman page (from the Linux man-pages package) and I found the following:
The following conversion specifiers are available:
(...)
dDeprecated. Matches an optionally signed decimal integer; thenext pointer must be a pointer toint.
iDeprecated. Matches an optionally signed integer; the nextpointer must be a pointer toint. The integer is read in base16 if it begins with0xor0X, in base 8 if it begins with0,and in base 10 otherwise. Only characters that correspond tothe base are used.
oDeprecated. Matches an unsigned octal integer; the next pointermust be a pointer tounsigned int.(...)
- How come
%dis deprecated? It seem that allintspecifiers are deprecated. - What does it mean and what is there to replace them?
