Standard C Library Functions iswctype(3C)
NAME
iswctype - test character for specified class
SYNOPSIS
#include
int iswctype(wint_t wc, wctype_t charclass);
DESCRIPTION
The iswctype() function determines whether the wide-
character code wc has the character class charclass, return-
ing TRUE or FALSE. The iswctype() function is defined on
WEOF and wide-character codes corresponding to the valid
character encodings in the current locale. If the wc argu-
ment is not in the domain of the function, the result is undefined. If the value of charclass is invalid (that is, not obtained by a call to wctype(3C) or charclass is invalidated by a subsequent call to setlocale(3C) that hasaffected category LC_CTYPE), the result is indeterminate.
RETURN VALUES
The iswctype() function returns 0 for FALSE and non-zero for
TRUE.USAGE
There are twelve strings that are reserved for the standard character classes: "alnum" | "alpha" | "blank"___________________|____________________|____________________
"cntrl" | "digit" | "graph"___________________|____________________|____________________
"lower" | "print" | "punct"___________________|____________________|____________________
"space" | "upper" | "xdigit" In the table below, the functions in the left column are equivalent to the functions in the right column.iswalnum(wc) iswctype(wc, wctype("alnum"))
iswalpha(wc) iswctype(wc, wctype("alpha"))
iswcntrl(wc) iswctype(wc, wctype("cntrl"))
iswdigit( wc) iswctype(wc, wctype("digit"))
iswgraph(wc) iswctype(wc, wctype("graph"))
iswlower(wc) iswctype(wc, wctype("lower"))
