12 Some of the functionality described on this reference page extends the
13 ISO C standard. Applications shall define the appropriate feature test
14 macro (see the System Interfaces volume of IEEE Std 1003.1-2001, Sec‐
15 tion 2.2, The Compilation Environment) to enable the visibility of
16 these symbols in this header.
17
18 The <string.h> header shall define the following:
19
20 NULL Null pointer constant.
21
22 size_t As described in <stddef.h> .
23
24
25 The following shall be declared as functions and may also be defined as
26 macros. Function prototypes shall be provided.
