WCSCASECMP(3P) POSIX Programmer's Manual WCSCASECMP(3P)
This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual. The Linux
implementation of this interface may differ (consult the
corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior), or
the interface may not be implemented on Linux.
wcscasecmp, wcscasecmp_l, wcsncasecmp, wcsncasecmp_l — case-
insensitive wide-character string comparison
#include <wchar.h>
int wcscasecmp(const wchar_t *ws1, const wchar_t *ws2);
int wcscasecmp_l(const wchar_t *ws1, const wchar_t *ws2,
locale_t locale);
int wcsncasecmp(const wchar_t *ws1, const wchar_t *ws2, size_t n);
int wcsncasecmp_l(const wchar_t *ws1, const wchar_t *ws2,
size_t n, locale_t locale);
The wcscasecmp() and wcsncasecmp() functions are the wide-character
equivalent of the strcasecmp() and strncasecmp() functions,
respectively.
The wcscasecmp() and wcscasecmp_l() functions shall compare, while
ignoring differences in case, the wide-character string pointed to by
ws1 to the wide-character string pointed to by ws2.
The wcsncasecmp() and wcsncasecmp_l() functions shall compare, while
ignoring differences in case, not more than n wide-characters from
the wide-character string pointed to by ws1 to the wide-character
string pointed to by ws2.
The wcscasecmp() and wcsncasecmp() functions use the current locale
to determine the case of the wide characters.
The wcscasecmp_l() and wcsncasecmp_l() functions use the locale
represented by locale to determine the case of the wide characters.
When the LC_CTIME category of the locale being used is from the POSIX
locale, these functions shall behave as if the wide-character strings
had been converted to lowercase and then a comparison of wide-
character codes performed. Otherwise, the results are unspecified.
The information for wcscasecmp_l() and wcsncasecmp_l() about the case
of the characters comes from the locale represented by locale.
The behavior is undefined if the locale argument to wcscasecmp_l() or
wcsncasecmp_l() is the special locale object LC_GLOBAL_LOCALE or is
not a valid locale object handle.
Upon completion, the wcscasecmp() and wcscasecmp_l() functions shall
return an integer greater than, equal to, or less than 0 if the wide-
character string pointed to by ws1 is, ignoring case, greater than,
equal to, or less than the wide-character string pointed to by ws2,
respectively.
Upon completion, the wcsncasecmp() and wcsncasecmp_l() functions
shall return an integer greater than, equal to, or less than 0 if the
possibly null wide-character terminated string pointed to by ws1 is,
ignoring case, greater than, equal to, or less than the possibly null
wide-character terminated string pointed to by ws2, respectively.
No return values are reserved to indicate an error.
No errors are defined.
