getwchar - get a wide character from a stdin stream SYNOPSIS
#include <wchar.h> wint_t getwchar(void); DESCRIPTION
The getwchar() function shall be equivalent to getwc(stdin). RETURN VALUE
Refer to fgetwc(). ERRORS
Refer to fgetwc(). The following sections are informative. EXAMPLES
None. APPLICATION USAGE
If the wint_t value returned by getwchar() is stored into a variable of type wchar_t and then compared against the wint_t macro WEOF, the result may be incorrect. Only the wint_t type is guaranteed to be able to represent any wide character and WEOF. RATIONALE
None. FUTURE DIRECTIONS
None. SEE ALSO
