.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
These functions operate on file descriptors for terminal type devices.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn isatty
|
|
function
|
|
determines if the file descriptor
|
|
.Fa fd
|
|
refers to a valid
|
|
terminal type device.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn ttyname
|
|
function
|
|
gets the related device name of
|
|
a file descriptor for which
|
|
.Fn isatty
|
|
is true.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn ttyname
|
|
function
|
|
returns the name stored in a static buffer which will be overwritten
|
|
on subsequent calls.
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn ttyname_r
|
|
function
|
|
takes a buffer and length as arguments to avoid this problem.
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn isatty
|
|
function returns 1 if
|
|
.Fa fd
|
|
refers to a terminal type device;
|
|
otherwise, it returns 0 and may set
|
|
.Va errno
|
|
to indicate the error.
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn ttyname
|
|
function
|
|
returns the null terminated name if the device is found and
|
|
.Fn isatty
|
|
is true; otherwise
|
|
a
|
|
.Dv NULL
|
|
pointer is returned.
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn ttyname_r
|
|
function returns 0 if successful.
|
|
Otherwise an error number is returned.
|
|
.Sh ERRORS
|
|
These functions may fail if:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Er
|
|
.It Bq Er EBADF
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa fd
|
|
argument
|
|
is not a valid file descriptor.
|
|
.It Bq Er ENOTTY
|
|
The file associated with
|
|
.Fa fd
|
|
is not a terminal.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Additionally,
|
|
.Fn ttyname_r
|
|
may fail if:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Er
|
|
.It Bq Er ERANGE
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa bufsize
|
|
argument
|
|
is smaller than the length of the string to be returned.
