C++ Printf

Open-source C++ projects categorized as Printf

Top 4 C++ Printf Projects

  1. {fmt}

    A modern formatting library

    Project mention: Stdio(3) change: FILE is now opaque (OpenBSD) | news.ycombinator.com | 2025-07-20

    With fwrite that would be another level of buffering in addition to FILE's buffer. If you are interested in what {fmt} is doing, a good starting point is https://github.com/fmtlib/fmt/blob/35dcc58263d6b55419a5932bd.... It is also possible to bypass stdio completely and get even faster output (https://vitaut.net/posts/2020/optimal-file-buffer-size/) and while it is great for files, it may introduce interleaving problems with things like stdout.
