.Os
.Sh NAME
.Nm xo_emit , xo_emit_h , xo_emit_hv
.Nd emit formatted output based on format string and arguments
.Sh LIBRARY
.Lb libxo
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.In libxo/xo.h
.Ft xo_ssize_t
.Fn xo_emit "const char *fmt" "..."
.Ft xo_ssize_t
.Fn xo_emit_h "xo_handle_t *xop" "const char *fmt" "..."
.Ft xo_ssize_t
.Fn xo_emit_hv "xo_handle_t *xop" "const char *fmt" "va_list vap"
.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Fn xo_emit
function emits formatted output using the description in a format
string along with a set of zero or more arguments, in a style similar
to
.Xr printf 3
but using a more complex format description string, as described in
.Xr xo_format 5 .
.Pp
.Fn xo_emit
uses the default output handle, as described in
.Xr libxo 3 ,
where
.Fn xo_emit_h
uses an explicit handle.
.Fn xo_emit_hv
accepts a
.Fa va_list
for additional flexibility.
.Sh EXAMPLES
In this example, a set of four values is emitted using the following
source code:
.Bd -literal -offset indent
xo_emit(" {:lines/%7ju} {:words/%7ju} "
"{:characters/%7ju} {d:filename/%s}\\n",
linect, wordct, charct, file);
.Ed
Output can then be generated in various style, using
the "--libxo" option:
.Bd -literal -offset indent
% wc /etc/motd
25 165 1140 /etc/motd
% wc --libxo xml,pretty,warn /etc/motd
<wc>
<file>
<lines>25</lines>
<words>165</words>
<characters>1140</characters>
<filename>/etc/motd</filename>
</file>
</wc>
% wc --libxo json,pretty,warn /etc/motd
{
"wc": {
"file": [
{
"lines": 25,
"words": 165,
"characters": 1140,
"filename": "/etc/motd"
}
]
}
}
% wc --libxo html,pretty,warn /etc/motd
<div class="line">
<div class="text"> </div>
<div class="data" data-tag="lines"> 25</div>
<div class="text"> </div>
<div class="data" data-tag="words"> 165</div>
<div class="text"> </div>
<div class="data" data-tag="characters"> 1140</div>
<div class="text"> </div>
<div class="data" data-tag="filename">/etc/motd</div>
</div>
.Ed
.Sh RETURN CODE

returns a negative value on error. If the

then the number of display columns consumed by the output will be returned.
