MB_CUR_MAX(3) Linux Programmer's Manual MB_CUR_MAX(3)NAME
MB_CUR_MAX - maximum length of a multibyte character in the current locale
SYNOPSIS
#include <stdlib.h>
DESCRIPTION
The MB_CUR_MAX macro defines an integer expression giving the maximum number of bytes needed to represent a single wide character in the
current locale. It is locale dependent and therefore not a compile-time constant.
RETURN VALUE
An integer in the range [1, MB_LEN_MAX]. The value 1 denotes traditional 8-bit encoded characters.
CONFORMING TO
C99, POSIX.1-2001.

wctomb - convert a wide character to a multibyte sequence
SYNOPSIS
#include <stdlib.h>
int wctomb(char *s, wchar_t wc);
DESCRIPTION
If s is not NULL, the wctomb() function converts the wide character wc to its multibyte representation and stores it at the beginning of
the character array pointed to by s. It updates the shift state, which is stored in a static anonymous variable known only to the wctomb()
function, and returns the length of said multibyte representation, that is, the number of bytes written at s.
The programmer must ensure that there is room for at least MB_CUR_MAX bytes at s.
If s is NULL, the wctomb() function resets the shift state, known only to this function, to the initial state, and returns nonzero if the
encoding has nontrivial shift state, or zero if the encoding is stateless.
RETURN VALUE
If s is not NULL, the wctomb() function returns the number of bytes that have been written to the byte array at s. If wc can not be repre-
sented as a multibyte sequence (according to the current locale), -1 is returned.
If s is NULL, the wctomb() function returns nonzero if the encoding has nontrivial shift state, or zero if the encoding is stateless.
ATTRIBUTES
For an explanation of the terms used in this section, see attributes(7).

CONFORMING TO
POSIX.1-2001, POSIX.1-2008, C99.
NOTES
The behavior of wctomb() depends on the LC_CTYPE category of the current locale.
The function wcrtomb(3) provides a better interface to the same functionality.
