Parameters

stream

FILE stream to read a character from.

Returns

If successful, returns the next requested object from the stream. Character values are returned as an unsigned char converted to an int. If the stream is at end-of-file or a read error occurs, the routines return Stdlib.EOF. The routines Stdlib.feof(3) and Stdlib.ferror(3) must be used to distinguish between end-of-file and error. If an error occurs, use Stdlib.GetLastError indicates the error. The end-of-file condition is remembered, even on a terminal, and all subsequent attempts to read will return Stdlib.EOF until the condition is cleared with Stdlib.clearerr(3).

Remarks

The getc() function obtains the next input character (if present) from the stream pointed at by stream, or the next character pushed back on the stream via Stdlib.ungetc(3).
