|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In wchar.h
|
|
.Ft size_t
|
|
.Fn wcsxfrm "wchar_t * restrict dst" "const wchar_t * restrict src" "size_t n"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn wcsxfrm
|
|
function transforms a nul-terminated wide-character string pointed to by
|
|
.Fa src
|
|
according to the current locale collation order then copies the
|
|
transformed string into
|
|
.Fa dst .
|
|
No more than
|
|
.Fa n
|
|
wide characters are copied into
|
|
.Fa dst ,
|
|
including the terminating nul character added.
|
|
If
|
|
.Fa n
|
|
is set to 0
|
|
(it helps to determine an actual size needed for transformation),
|
|
.Fa dst
|
|
is permitted to be a null pointer.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Comparing two strings using
|
|
.Fn wcscmp
|
|
after
|
|
.Fn wcsxfrm
|
|
is equivalent to comparing two original strings with
|
|
.Fn wcscoll .
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
Upon successful completion,
|
|
.Fn wcsxfrm
|
|
returns the length of the transformed string not including
|
|
the terminating nul character.
|
|
If this value is
|
|
.Fa n
|
|
or more, the contents of
|
|
.Fa dst
|
|
are indeterminate.

|
.Sh STANDARDS
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn wcsxfrm
|
|
function conforms to
|
|
.St -isoC-99 .
|
|
.Sh BUGS
|
|
The current implementation of
|
|
.Fn wcsxfrm
|
|
function disregards
|
|
.Dv LC_COLLATE
|
|
locales, and falls back to using the
|
|
.Fn wcsncpy
|
|
function.
