4.11.6 Hostif_ConsoleRead
This function reads a string from the ARMulator console. Reading terminates at a
newline or if the end of the buffer is reached.
Syntax
char *Hostif_ConsoleRead(const struct RDI_HostosInterface *hostif,
char *buffer, int len)
where:
hostif
is the handle for the host interface.
buffer
is a pointer to a buffer to hold the string.
len
is the maximum length of the buffer.
Return
This function returns a pointer to a buffer, or NULL on error or end of file.
The buffer contains at most
len-1
characters, terminated by a zero. If a newline is read,
it is included in the string before the zero.
4.11.7 Hostif_ConsoleWrite
This function writes a string to the ARMulator console.
Syntax
int Hostif_ConsoleWrite(const struct RDI_HostosInterface *hostif,
const char *buffer, int len)
where:
hostif
is the handle for the host interface.
buffer
is a pointer to a buffer holding a zero-terminated string.
len
is the length of the buffer.
Return
This function returns the number of characters actually written. This is
len
unless an
error occurs.
