.TH LIBSIMPLE_MEMSCAN 3 2018-11-17 libsimple
.SH NAME
libsimple_memscan \- find byte in memory
.SH SYNOPSIS
.nf
#include <libsimple.h>
void *libsimple_memscan(const void *\fIs\fP, int \fIc\fP, size_t \fIn\fP);
#ifndef memscan
# define memscan libsimple_memscan
#endif
.fi
.PP
Link with
.IR \-lsimple .
.SH DESCRIPTION
The
.BR libsimple_memscan ()
function scans the memory segment
.IR s ,
with the size
.IR n ,
for the first occurence of the byte
.I c
(it is converted to a
.BR char ).
If no such character exist in the memory
segment, the memory segment's end is returned.
.PP
The comparison is case-sensitive.
.SH RETURN VALUE
The
.BR libsimple_memscan ()
function returns the pointer
.I s
with a minimal offset such that
.IR *r==c ,
where
.I r
is the returned pointer.
If no such offset exists,
.I &r[n]
is returned.
.SH ERRORS
The
.BR libsimple_memscan ()
function cannot fail.
