Re: builtin sscanf


How precize this function?
I write sample:
int main()
    {
    float x, y;
    __builtin_sscanf("30,981", "%f", &x);
    __builtin_printf("Test comma: %f\n", x);
    return(0);
    }

Compile with options: g++ main.c -o hello -static-libgcc

This sample returns 30.00 but 30.981 expected
