get_next_line

42cursus' project #4

May it be a file, stdin, or even later a network connection, you will always need a way to read content line by line. It is time to start working on this function, which will be essential for your future projects. In this repo you will find all the files regarding the implementations of the get_next_line functions.

Mandatory

Calling the function get_next_line in a loop will then allow the user to read the text available on the file descriptor one line at a time until the end of it. It has to behave well both on external files and standard input. The function should return the line that has just been read. If there is nothing else to read or if an error has occurred it should return NULL. The mandatory part must deal with at least one file descriptor at a time, and can have more than one static variable.
