STRCOLL(3)						   BSD Library Functions Manual 						STRCOLL(3)

NAME
strcoll, strcoll_l -- compare strings, according to current collation LIBRARY
Standard C Library (libc, -lc) SYNOPSIS
#include <string.h> int strcoll(const char *s1, const char *s2); #include <string.h> #include <xlocale.h> int strcoll_l(const char *s1, const char *s2, locale_t loc); DESCRIPTION
The strcoll() function lexicographically compares the null-terminated strings s1 and s2 according to the current locale collation and returns an integer greater than, equal to, or less than 0, according as s1 is greater than, equal to, or less than s2. If information about the cur- rent locale collation is not available, the value of strcmp(s1, s2) is returned. Although the strcoll() function uses the current locale, the strcoll_l() function may be passed a locale directly. See xlocale(3) for more information. SEE ALSO
setlocale(3), strcmp(3), strxfrm(3), wcscoll(3), xlocale(3) STANDARDS
The strcoll() function conforms to ISO/IEC 9899:1990 (``ISO C90''). BSD

NAME
strxfrm, strxfrm_l -- transform a string under locale LIBRARY
Standard C Library (libc, -lc) SYNOPSIS
#include <string.h> size_t strxfrm(char *restrict s1, const char *restrict s2, size_t n); #include <string.h> #include <xlocale.h> size_t strxfrm_l(char *restrict s1, const char *restrict s2, size_t n, locale_t loc); DESCRIPTION
The strxfrm() function transforms a null-terminated string pointed to by s2 according to the current locale collation if any, then copies the transformed string into s1. Not more than n characters are copied into s1, including the terminating null character added. If n is set to 0 (it helps to determine an actual size needed for transformation), s1 is permitted to be a NULL pointer. Comparing two strings using strcmp() after strxfrm() is equal to comparing two original strings with strcoll(). Although the strxfrm() function uses the current locale, the strxfrm_l() function may be passed a locale directly. See xlocale(3) for more information. RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion, strxfrm() returns the length of the transformed string not including the terminating null character. If this value is n or more, the contents of s1 are indeterminate. SEE ALSO
setlocale(3), strcmp(3), strcoll(3), wcsxfrm(3), xlocale(3) STANDARDS
The strxfrm() function conforms to ISO/IEC 9899:1990 (``ISO C90''). BSD
