Convert a string to an __int64
value.
Syntax
__int64 _strtoi64(
const char *nptr,
char **endptr,
int base
);
__int64 _wcstoi64(
const wchar_t *nptr,
wchar_t **endptr,
int base
);
__int64 _strtoi64_l(
const char *nptr,
char **endptr,
int base,
_locale_t locale
);
__int64 _wcstoi64_l(
const wchar_t *nptr,
wchar_t **endptr,
int base,
_locale_t locale
);
Parameters
nptr
Null-terminated string to convert.
endptr
Pointer to character that stops scan.
base
Number base to use.
locale
The locale to use.
Return Value
_strtoi64
returns the value represented in the string nptr
, except when the representation would cause an overflow, in which case it returns _I64_MAX
or _I64_MIN
. The function will return 0 if no conversion can be performed. _wcstoi64
returns values analogously to strtoi64
.
_I64_MAX
and _I64_MIN
are defined in LIMITS.H.
If nptr
is NULL
or the base
is nonzero and either less than 2 or greater than 36, errno
is set to EINVAL
.
See _doserrno, errno, _sys_errlist, and _sys_nerr for more information on these, and other, return codes.
Remarks
The _strtoi64
function converts nptr
to an __int64
. Both functions stop reading the string nptr
at the first character they cannot recognize as part of a number. This may be the terminating null character, or it may be the first numeric character greater than or equal to base
. _wcstoi64
is a wide-character version of _strtoi64
; its nptr
argument is a wide-character string. These functions behave identically otherwise.

The locale's LC_NUMERIC
category setting determines recognition of the radix character in nptr
; for more information, see setlocale. The functions without the _l suffix use the current locale; _strtoi64_l
and_wcstoi64_l
are identical to the corresponding function without the _l
suffix except that they use the locale passed in instead. For more information, see Locale.
If endptr
is not NULL
, a pointer to the character that stopped the scan is stored at the location pointed to by endptr
. If no conversion can be performed (no valid digits were found or an invalid base was specified), the value of nptr
is stored at the location pointed to by endptr
.
_strtoi64
expects nptr
to point to a string of the following form:
[whitespace
] [{+
| –
}] [0
[{ x
| X
}]] [digits
]
A whitespace
may consist of space and tab characters, which are ignored; digits
are one or more decimal digits. The first character that does not fit this form stops the scan. If base
is between 2 and 36, then it is used as the base of the number. If base
is 0, the initial characters of the string pointed to by nptr
are used to determine the base. If the first character is 0 and the second character is not 'x' or 'X', the string is interpreted as an octal integer. If the first character is '0' and the second character is 'x' or 'X', the string is interpreted as a hexadecimal integer. If the first character is '1' through '9', the string is interpreted as a decimal integer. The letters 'a' through 'z' (or 'A' through 'Z') are assigned the values 10 through 35; only letters whose assigned values are less than base
are permitted. The first character outside the range of the base stops the scan. For example, if base
is 0 and the first character scanned is '0', an octal integer is assumed and an '8' or '9' character will stop the scan.
