《GLIB C MANUAL》--1.介绍

1.Introduction

1.介绍

The C language provides no built-in facilities for performing such common operations as input/output, memory management, string manipulation, and the like. Instead, these facilities are defined in a standard library, which you compile and link with your programs. The GNU C Library, described in this document, defines all of the library functions that are specified by the ISO C standard, as well as additional features specific to POSIX and other derivatives of the Unix operating system, and extensions specific to GNU systems.
C语言提供了非内建处理来执行输入/输出，内存管理，字符串处理等普通操作。相反，这些处理都定义在标准的库中，这些库在你编译和链接程序时使用。在本文档中描述的GNU C库，不但定义了所有在ISO C中详细说明的库功能，而且还包括了POSIX和其他衍生的unix系统的附加特性，GNU系统的扩展。

The purpose of this manual is to tell you how to use the facilities of the GNU C Library. We have mentioned which features belong to which standards to help you identify things that are potentially non-portable to other systems. But the emphasis in this manual is not on strict portability.
本手册的目的是教你如何使用GNU C库。我们已经提到了哪些特征是属于哪些标准的，来帮助你判断是否可以移植到其他的系统中，但在这本手册的重点不是严格的可移植性。
