strchr, strrchr, strchrnul - locate character in string
SYNOPSIS
#include <string.h>char *strchr(const char *s, int c);char *strrchr(const char *s, int c);#define _GNU_SOURCE#include <string.h>char *strchrnul(const char *s, int c);
DESCRIPTION
The
strchr()
function returns a pointer to the first occurrence
of the character c in the string s.
The
strrchr()
function returns a pointer to the last occurrence
of the character c in the string s.
The
strchrnul()
function is like
strchr()
except that if c is not found in s,
then it returns a pointer to the null byte
at the end of s, rather than NULL.
Here "character" means "byte"; these functions do not work with
wide or multi-byte characters.
RETURN VALUE
The
strchr()
and
strrchr()
functions return a pointer to
the matched character or NULL if the character is not found.
The
strchrnul()
function returns a pointer to
the matched character,
or a pointer to the null
byte at the end of s (i.e., s+strlen(s))
if the character is not found.
VERSIONS

first appeared in glibc in version 2.1.1.
CONFORMING TO
