TOWUPPER(3)						   BSD Library Functions Manual 					       TOWUPPER(3)

NAME

     towupper, towupper_l -- lower case to upper case letter conversion (wide character version)

LIBRARY

     Standard C Library (libc, -lc)

SYNOPSIS

     #include <wctype.h>

     wint_t
     towupper(wint_t wc);

     #include <wctype.h>
     #include <xlocale.h>

     wint_t
     towupper_l(wint_t wc, locale_t loc);

DESCRIPTION

     The towupper() function converts a lower-case letter to the corresponding upper-case letter.

     information.

RETURN VALUES

     If the argument is a lower-case letter, the towupper() function returns the corresponding upper-case letter if there is one; otherwise, the
     argument is returned unchanged.

SEE ALSO

     iswupper(3), toupper(3), towlower(3), wctrans(3), xlocale(3)

STANDARDS

     The towupper() function conforms to ISO/IEC 9899:1999 (``ISO C99'').
