NAME
iswctype - wide-character classification SYNOPSIS
#include <wctype.h> int iswctype(wint_t wc, wctype_t desc); DESCRIPTION
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() function. RETURN VALUE
The iswctype() function returns nonzero if the wc has the designated property. Otherwise it returns 0. CONFORMING TO
C99. NOTES
The behavior of iswctype() depends on the LC_CTYPE category of the current locale. SEE ALSO

NAME
wctype - wide-character classification SYNOPSIS
#include <wctype.h> wctype_t wctype(const char *name); DESCRIPTION
The wctype_t type represents a property which a wide character may or may not have. In other words, it represents a class of wide charac- ters. This type's nature is implementation-dependent, but the special value (wctype_t) 0 denotes an invalid property. Nonzero wctype_t values can be passed to the iswctype(3) function to actually test whether a given wide character has the property. The wctype() function returns a property, given by its name. The set of valid names depends on the LC_CTYPE category of the current locale, but the following names are valid in all locales. "alnum" - realizes the isalnum(3) classification function "alpha" - realizes the isalpha(3) classification function "blank" - realizes the isblank(3) classification function "cntrl" - realizes the iscntrl(3) classification function "digit" - realizes the isdigit(3) classification function "graph" - realizes the isgraph(3) classification function "lower" - realizes the islower(3) classification function "print" - realizes the isprint(3) classification function "punct" - realizes the ispunct(3) classification function "space" - realizes the isspace(3) classification function "upper" - realizes the isupper(3) classification function "xdigit" - realizes the isxdigit(3) classification function RETURN VALUE
The wctype() function returns a property descriptor if the name is valid. Otherwise it returns (wctype_t) 0. CONFORMING TO
