cannam@95 65 These functions allow you to export all currently accumulated wisdom
cannam@95 66 in a form from which it can be later imported and restored, even
cannam@95 67 during a separate run of the program. (See <a href="Words-of-Wisdom_002dSaving-Plans.html#Words-of-Wisdom_002dSaving-Plans">Words of Wisdom-Saving Plans</a>.) The current store of wisdom is not affected by calling any
cannam@95 68 of these routines.
cannam@95 69
cannam@95 70 <p><code>fftw_export_wisdom</code> exports the wisdom to any output
cannam@95 71 medium, as specified by the callback function
cannam@95 72 <code>write_char</code>. <code>write_char</code> is a <code>putc</code>-like function that
cannam@95 73 writes the character <code>c</code> to some output; its second parameter is
cannam@95 74 the <code>data</code> pointer passed to <code>fftw_export_wisdom</code>. For
cannam@95 75 convenience, the following three &ldquo;wrapper&rdquo; routines are provided:
cannam@95 76
cannam@95 77 <p><code>fftw_export_wisdom_to_filename</code> writes wisdom to a file named
cannam@95 78 <code>filename</code> (which is created or overwritten), returning <code>1</code>
cannam@95 79 on success and <code>0</code> on failure. A lower-level function, which
cannam@95 80 requires you to open and close the file yourself (e.g. if you want to
cannam@95 81 write wisdom to a portion of a larger file) is
cannam@95 82 <code>fftw_export_wisdom_to_file</code>. This writes the wisdom to the
cannam@95 83 current position in <code>output_file</code>, which should be open with
cannam@95 84 write permission; upon exit, the file remains open and is positioned
cannam@95 85 at the end of the wisdom data.
cannam@95 86
cannam@95 87 <p><code>fftw_export_wisdom_to_string</code> returns a pointer to a
cannam@95 88 <code>NULL</code>-terminated string holding the wisdom data. This string is
cannam@95 89 dynamically allocated, and it is the responsibility of the caller to
cannam@95 90 deallocate it with <code>free</code> when it is no longer needed.
cannam@95 91
cannam@95 92 <p>All of these routines export the wisdom in the same format, which we
cannam@95 93 will not document here except to say that it is LISP-like ASCII text
cannam@95 94 that is insensitive to white space.
