NAME

       iswblank - test for whitespace wide character

SYNOPSIS

       #include <wctype.h>

       int iswblank(wint_t wc);

   Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see feature_test_macros(7)):

       iswblank():
	      _ISOC99_SOURCE || _POSIX_C_SOURCE >= 200112L

DESCRIPTION

       The  iswblank() function is the wide-character equivalent of the isblank(3) function.  It tests whether wc is a wide character belonging to
       the wide-character class "blank".

       The wide-character class "blank" is a subclass of the wide-character class "space".

       Being a subclass of the wide-character class "space", the wide-character class "blank" is disjoint from the  wide-character  class  "graph"
       and therefore also disjoint from its subclasses "alnum", "alpha", "upper", "lower", "digit", "xdigit", "punct".

       The wide-character class "blank" always contains at least the space character and the control character '	'.

RETURN VALUE

       The  iswblank()	function  returns  nonzero if wc is a wide character belonging to the wide-character class "blank".  Otherwise, it returns
       zero.
