linux下和windows 下 snprintf函数的区别

在linux下面，snprintf函数的说明：

Return value
       Upon  successful  return,  these  functions return the number of characters printed (not including the trailing
       '/0' used to end output to strings).  The functions snprintf() and vsnprintf() do  not  write  more  than  size
       bytes  (including  the  trailing '/0').  If the output was truncated due to this limit then the return value is
       the number of characters (not including the trailing '/0') which would have been written to the final string if
       enough space had been available. Thus, a return value of size or more means that the output was truncated. (See
       also below under NOTES.)  If an output error is encountered, a negative value is returned.

 

也就是说，snprintf函数会在第n - 1个位置上自动拷贝一个/0,并且返回一个不包括结尾/0的，实际拷贝的字符数目。

 

在windows下面，_snprintf实际上不会给你在最后加上/0。这就是区别，用的时候要注意了.
