34Like @code{sprintf}, but instead of passing a pointer to a buffer, you
35pass a pointer to a pointer. This function will compute the size of
36the buffer needed, allocate memory with @code{malloc}, and store a
37pointer to the allocated memory in @code{*@var{resptr}}. The value
38returned is the same as @code{sprintf} would return. If memory could
8d398258 39not be allocated, minus one is returned and @code{NULL} is stored in
aac04c15
DD
40@code{*@var{resptr}}.
