wscasecmp

wstring(3C)						   Standard C Library Functions 					       wstring(3C)

NAME

       wstring, wscasecmp, wsncasecmp, wsdup, wscol - Process Code string operations

SYNOPSIS

       #include <widec.h>

       int wscasecmp(const wchar_t *s1, const wchar_t *s2);

       int wsncasecmp(const wchar_t *s1, const wchar_t *s2, int n);

       wchar_t *wsdup(const wchar_t *s);

       int wscol(const wchar_t *s);

DESCRIPTION

       These  functions operate on Process Code strings terminated by wchar_t null characters.	During appending or copying, these routines do not
       check for an overflow condition of the receiving string. In the following, s, s1, and s2 point to Process  Code	strings  terminated  by  a
       wchar_t null.

   wscasecmp(), wsncasecmp()
       The  wscasecmp()  function  compares its arguments, ignoring case, and returns an integer greater than, equal to, or less than 0, depending
       upon whether s1 is lexicographically greater than, equal to, or less than s2. It makes the same comparison but compares at most	n  Process
       Code characters. The four Extended Unix Code (EUC) codesets are ordered from lowest to highest as 0, 2, 3, 1 when characters from different
       codesets are compared.

   wsdup()
       The wsdup() function returns a pointer to a new Process Code string, which is a duplicate of the string pointed to by s. The space for  the
       new string is obtained using malloc(3C). If the new string cannot be created, a null pointer is returned.

   wscol()
       The wscol() function returns the screen display width (in columns) of the Process Code string s.
