ISWCTYPE(3)               Linux Programmer's Manual              ISWCTYPE(3)

NAME         top

       iswctype - wide-character classification

SYNOPSIS         top

       #include <wctype.h>

       int iswctype(wint_t wc, wctype_t desc);

DESCRIPTION         top

       If wc is a wide character having the character property designated by
       desc (or in other words: belongs to the character class designated by
       desc), the iswctype() function returns nonzero.  Otherwise it returns
       zero.  If wc is WEOF, zero is returned.

       desc must be a character property descriptor returned by the
       wctype(3) function.

RETURN VALUE         top

       The iswctype() function returns nonzero if the wc has the designated
       property.  Otherwise it returns 0.

CONFORMING TO         top

       C99.

NOTES         top

       The behavior of iswctype() depends on the LC_CTYPE category of the
       current locale.
