getpwnam函数功能是获取用户登录相关信息。

原型定义:若成功，返回指针;若出错或者达到文件尾端，返回NULL。

表头文件:

#include <pwd.h>
#include <sys/types.h>

信息存贮在如下的结构体之中

struct passwd {
    char *pw_name; /* Username */
    char *pw_passwd; /* Password */
    __uid_t pw_uid; /* User ID. */
    __gid_t pw_gid; /* Group ID. */
    char *pw_gecos; /* Real name. */
    char *pw_dir; /* Home directory */
    char *pw_shell; /* Shell program */
};

例子:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <pwd.h>
int main() 
{
    struct passwd *pw;
    char *username = "zxl";
    pw = getpwname(username);
    if (!pw) {
        printf("%s is not exist\n", username);
        return -1;
    }
    printf("pw->pw_name = %s\n", pw->pw_name);
    printf("pw->pw_passwd = %s\n", pw->pw_passwd);
    printf("pw->pw_uid = %d\n", pw->pw_uid);
    printf("pw->pw_gid = %d\n", pw->pw_gid);
    printf("pw->pw_gecos = %s\n", pw->pw_gecos);
    printf("pw->pw_dir = %s\n", pw->pw_dir);
    printf("pw->pw_shell = %s\n", pw->pw_shell);
}
