- standard symbolic constants and types

Synopsis

#include <unistd.h>

Description

The <unistd.h> header defines the symbolic constants and structures which are not already defined or declared in some other header. The contents of this header are shown below.

Version Test Macros

The following symbolic constants are defined (with fixed values):

_POSIX_VERSION

Integer value indicating version of the POSIX standard (C language binding). See standards(5).

_POSIX2_VERSION

Integer value indicating version of the POSIX.2 standard (Commands).

_POSIX2_C_VERSION

Integer value indicating version of the POSIX.2 standard (C language binding).

_XOPEN_VERSION

Integer value indicating version of the XPG to which system conforms.

_XOPEN_XCU_VERSION

Integer value indicating the version of the XCU specification to which the implementation conforms. If this constant is not defined, use the sysconf(3C) function to determine which features are supported. This constant is not defined for the SUSv3 environment.

Mandatory Symbolic Constants

The following symbolic constants, if defined in <unistd.h>, have a value of -1, 0, or greater, unless otherwise specified below. If these are undefined, the fpathconf(2), pathconf(2), or sysconf(3C) functions can be used to determine whether the option is provided for a particular invocation of the application.

If a symbolic constant is defined with the value -1, the option is not supported. Headers, data types, and function interfaces required only for the option need not be supplied. An application that attempts to use anything associated only with the option is considered to be requiring an extension.

If a symbolic constant is defined with a value greater than zero, the option is always supported when the application is executed. All headers, data types, and functions are present and operate as specified.

If a symbolic constant is defined with the value zero, all headers, data types, and functions are present. The application can check at runtime to see whether the option is supported by calling fpathconf(), pathconf(), or sysconf() with the indicated name parameter.

Unless explicitly specified otherwise, the behavior of functions associated with an unsupported option is unspecified, and an application that uses such functions without first checking fpathconf(), pathconf(), or sysconf() is considered to be requiring an extension.
