《GLIB C MANUAL》–1.介紹

1.Introduction

1.介紹

The C language provides no built-in facilities for performing such common operations as input/output, memory management, string manipulation, and the like. Instead, these facilities are defined in a standard library, which
you compile and link with your programs. The GNU C Library, described in this document, defines all of the library functions that are specified by the ISO C standard, as well as additional features specific to POSIX and other derivatives of the Unix operating
system, and extensions specific to GNU systems.
C語言提供了非內建處理來執行輸入/輸出，記憶體管理，字串處理等普通操作。相反，這些處理都定義在標準的庫中，這些庫在你編譯和連結程式時使用。在本文檔中描述的GNU C庫，不但定義了所有在ISO C中詳細說明的庫功能，而且還包括了POSIX和其他衍生的unix系統的附加特性，GNU系統的擴充。

The purpose of this manual is to tell you how to use the facilities of the GNU C Library. We have mentioned which features belong to which standards to help you identify things that are potentially non-portable to other
systems. But the emphasis in this manual is not on strict portability.
本手冊的目的是教你如何使用GNU C庫。我們已經提到了哪些特徵是屬於哪些標準的，來協助你判斷是否可以移植到其他的系統中，但在這本手冊的重點不是嚴格的可移植性。
