NAME
wcsftime - convert date and time to wide character string SYNOPSIS
#include <wchar.h> XPG4 and SUS size_t wcsftime(wchar_t *wcs, size_t maxsize, const char *format, const struct tm *timptr); Default and other standards size_t wcsftime(wchar_t *restrict wcs, size_t maxsize, const wchar_t *restrict format, const struct tm *restrict timptr); DESCRIPTION
The wcsftime() function is equivalent to the strftime(3C) function, except that: o The argument wcs points to the initial element of an array of wide-characters into which the generated output is to be placed. o The argument maxsize indicates the maximum number of wide-characters to be placed in the output array. o The argument format is a wide-character string and the conversion specifications are replaced by corresponding sequences of wide- characters. o The return value indicates the number of wide-characters placed in the output array. If copying takes place between objects that overlap, the behavior is undefined. RETURN VALUES
If the total number of resulting wide character codes (including the terminating null wide-character code) is no more than maxsize, wcsf- time() returns the number of wide-character codes placed into the array pointed to by wcs, not including the terminating null wide-charac- ter code. Otherwise, 0 is returned and the contents of the array are indeterminate. The wcfstime() function uses malloc(3C) and should malloc() fail, errno will be set by malloc(). ATTRIBUTES

The wcsftime() function can be used safely in multithreaded applications, as long as setlocale(3C) is not being called to change the locale. SunOS 5.10 1 Nov 2003 wcsftime(3C)

NAME
wcstombs - convert a wide-character string to a character string SYNOPSIS
#include <stdlib.h> size_t wcstombs(char *restrict s, const wchar_t *restrict pwcs, size_t n); DESCRIPTION
The wcstombs() function converts the sequence of wide-character codes from the array pointed to by pwcs into a sequence of characters and stores these characters into the array pointed to by s, stopping if a character would exceed the limit of n total bytes or if a null byte is stored. Each wide-character code is converted as if by a call to wctomb(3C). The behavior of this function is affected by the LC_CTYPE category of the current locale. No more than n bytes will be modified in the array pointed to by s. If copying takes place between objects that overlap, the behavior is undefined. If s is a null pointer, wcstombs() returns the length required to convert the entire array regardless of the value of n, but no values are stored. RETURN VALUES
If a wide-character code is encountered that does not correspond to a valid character (of one or more bytes each), wcstombs() returns (size_t)-1. Otherwise, wcstombs() returns the number of bytes stored in the character array, not including any terminating null byte. The array will not be null-terminated if the value returned is n. ERRORS
The wcstombs() function may fail if: EILSEQ A wide-character code does not correspond to a valid character. ATTRIBUTES
