48 @deftypefn Extension int vasprintf (char **@var{resptr}, const char *@var{format}, va_list @var{args})
50 Like @code{vsprintf}, but instead of passing a pointer to a buffer,
51 you pass a pointer to a pointer. This function will compute the size
52 of the buffer needed, allocate memory with @code{malloc}, and store a
53 pointer to the allocated memory in @code{*@var{resptr}}. The value
54 returned is the same as @code{vsprintf} would return. If memory could
55 not be allocated, zero is returned and @code{NULL} is stored in
56 @code{*@var{resptr}}.
