NAME

       wctype_ja - Define a character class for the Japanese locale

SYNOPSIS

       #include <wchar.h>

       wctype_t wctype(const char *charclass);

DESCRIPTION

       wctype()  builds  values  in  wctype_t  data  type  according  to the specification with the charclass argument to determine wide character
       classes.  iswctype() is used for actual determination.  wctype() returns arguments that wctype() needs to use.

       The following character class names are defined in every locale.

       alnum	      alpha	     blank	    cntrl
       digit	      graph	     lower	    print
       punct	      space	     upper	    xdigit

       In addition to the above, the Japanese locale (ja, ja_JP.eucJP, ja_JP.PCK and ja_JP.UTF-8) defines the following character classes specific
       to the Japanese locale.

       jkanji	      jkata	     hira	    jdigit
       jparen	      line	     jisx0201r	    jisx0208
       jisx0212       udc	     vdc

       The following character classes are supported in ja and ja_JP.eucJP locales only.

       jalpha		   jspecial	  jgreek	 jrussian
       junit		   jsci 	  jgen		 jpunct

       The following character classes are supported in ja_JP.eucJP and ja_JP.UTF-8 locale only.

       ascii		   paren	       jisx0201
       gaiji		   jhankana	       jspace

       These  can be also used as charclass arguments to wctype().  However, the use of these classes are limited to applications for the Japanese
       locale only.
