[comp.lang.c] ANSI-C Standard Library

nishimu@macro.co.jp (Toshio Nishimura) (02/05/91)

Is there any freeware or PDS of ANSI-C standard library sources?
Especialy I want to get "Data and Time Functions".
Thanks in advance.

I am interested in putting together an ANSI standard library by gathering
as much PD library routines as I can find.  I expect to make this available
when I have something substantial.  So far I have all the string functions
described in K&R2 as well as a few extra such as bcopy, bzero, index, rindex,
strdup, etc.  This is mainly based on Henry Spencer's string functions.  I
also have a few routines in other categories (qsort and mktime to name two)
and I would like to get more so;

  1) Me too.
  2) Anybody have some other routines (or pointers) for me?
  3) Can someone tell me where to find Chris Torek's stdio library?
  4) Has someone already done this?
  5) Comments and discussions on this project welcome.

As I get this stuff I am modifying it to some extent.  Mostly the changes
are to use ANSI prototypes and declarations everywhere, simplify the code
by assuming ANSI, (NO #ifdef __STDC__, etc,) and some style changes to
attempt some sort of consistency across the library.

I've included comp.std.c and directed followups there.
