Synopsis

#include <libmawk.h>

CELL *libmawk_set_cell(mawk_state_t *m, CELL *cell, const charargtype,...);

Description

The libmawk_set_cell() function modifies the value of a mawk cell (variable). Argumetn argtype is a format character that describes the type of the payload (accessed trough vararg).

The libmawk_set_cellp() function performs the same action but accepts a generic pointer to the payload.

Format character is one of the followings:

'd' for int payload
'f' for double payload
's' for (zero terminated) char * payload.

Argument m is a libmawk context previously returned by libmawk_initialize() or libmawk_initialize_stage3().

Return Value

A pointer to the cell modified.
