wctype.h(3HEAD) 						      Headers							   wctype.h(3HEAD)

NAME

       wctype.h, wctype - wide-character classification and mapping utilities

SYNOPSIS

       #include <wctype.h>

DESCRIPTION

       The <wctype.h> header defines the following types:

       wint_t	    As described in <wchar.h>.

       wctrans_t    A scalar type that can hold values that represent locale-specific character mappings.

       wctype_t     As described in <wchar.h>.

       The <wctype.h> header defines the following macro name:

       WEOF    Constant expression of type wint_t that is returned by several MSE functions to indicate end-of-file.

       For  all  functions described in this header that accept an argument of type wint_t, the value is representable as a wchar _t or equals the
       value of WEOF. If this argument has any other value, the behavior is undefined.

       The behavior of these functions is affected by the LC_CTYPE category of the current locale.

       Inclusion of the <wctype.h> header can make visible all symbols from the headers <ctype.h>, <stdarg.h>, <stddef.h>, <stdio.h>,  <stdlib.h>,
       <string.h>, <time.h>, and <wchar.h>.
