The __assert_fail
function is used to
implement the assert
interface of
ISO POSIX (2003).
The __assert_fail
function
shall print the given file filename,
line line number,
function function name and a message
on the standard error stream in an unspecified format, and abort
program execution via the abort
function.
For example:
a.c:10: foobar: Assertion a == b failed.
If function is NULL,
__assert_fail
shall omit
information about the function.
assertion, file, and line shall be non-NULL.
The __assert_fail
function
is not in the source standard;
it is only in the binary standard.
The assert
interface is not in the binary standard;
it is only in the source standard. The assert
may
be implemented as a macro.
