ss1sps - Scan a strictly positive short from a string

SYNOPSIS

int ss1sps
(
	const char *input_str,
	short *short_ptr
);

DESCRIPTION

This routine is similar to ss1l, except now we insist that the contents of "str" represent a strictly positive number (still restricted to the SHORT_MAX in magnitude).

RETURNS

If "str" represents a valid strictly positive short, then NO_ERROR is returned. Otherwise the problem with "str" is reported in the set error message, and ERRROR is returned. The problem with "str" can be printed with kjb_print_error.

RELATED

Use ss1us() if what you really want is an unsigned short. Use ss1pu() if 0 is considered positive.

MACROS

ss1spi64, ss1spi32, ss1spi16 These macros can be used to force scanning of a certain integer size. The argument of these is normally a pointer to kjb_int32 or kjb_int16 as appropriate.

DISCLAIMER

This software is not adequatedly tested. It is recomended that results are checked independantly where appropriate.
