va_arg - cppreference.com

T va_arg( std::va_list ap, T );

The va_arg macro expands to an expression of type T that corresponds to the next parameter from the va_list ap.

Prior to calling va_arg, ap must be initialized by a call to either va_start or va_copy, with no intervening call to va_end. Each invocation of the va_arg macro modifies ap to point to the next variable argument.

If the type of the next argument in ap (after promotions) is not compatible with T, the behavior is undefined, unless:

If va_arg is called when there are no more arguments in ap, the behavior is undefined.

[edit] Parameters ap - an instance of the va_list type T - the type of the next parameter in ap [edit] Expanded value

The next variable parameter in ap.
