wctob
wctob(3) Library Functions Manual wctob(3)NAME
wctob - Converts a wide character to a single byte in multibyte-character format
LIBRARY
Standard C Library (libc)
SYNOPSIS
#include <stdlib.h> #include <wchar.h>
int wctob(
wint_t wc );
STANDARDS
Interfaces documented on this reference page conform to industry standards as follows:
wctob(): XSH5.0
Refer to the standards(5) reference page for more information about industry standards and associated tags.
PARAMETERS
Points to a variable containing a wide-character value.
DESCRIPTION
The wctob() function determines if a wide-character value constitutes a valid single-byte character in the initial shift state from a
multibyte codeset. If so, the function returns the corresponding multibyte character. This function provides a wide-character to multi-
byte-character format conversion correctly sized for the %c conversion specifier that is permitted in calls to *printf() functions.
In general, use either the wctomb() or wcrtomb() function to perform wide-character to multibyte-character format conversions of single
characters. Converting only the characters whose encoding requires one byte has limited usefulness in multibyte codesets, where codes for
many or most characters require multiple bytes.
RETURN VALUES
The wctob() function returns one of the following: The counterpart multibyte-character value, if wc can be converted to a multibyte-format
character that is 1 byte in length and in the initial shift state EOF, if wc does not correspond to a valid multibyte character that is 1
byte in length and in the initial shift state
ERRORS
The wctob() function sets errno to the specified value for the following conditions: An invalid character value is encountered.
