[previous] 0176 [next] [U] Incomplete conversion specifier, number %s.
Explicitly undefined REFERENCE - ISO:C90-7.9.6.1 Formatted input/output functions

An incomplete format conversion specifier has been encountered in a call to printf, fprintf or sprintf. The character that specifies the type of conversion appears to be missing.

For example: 


/*PRQA S 336,602,1307,2017,3122,3200,3209,3227,3408,3602,3625 ++*/

#include <stdio.h>

extern void foo(int n)
{
    printf("Value is: %d", n);              /* OK */

    printf("Value is: %0", n);              /* Message 0176 */
    printf("Value is: %#", n);              /* Message 0176 */
    printf("Value is: %h", n);              /* Message 0176 */
}
