NAME

     wcrtomb, wcrtomb_l -- convert a wide-character code to a character (restartable)

LIBRARY

     Standard C Library (libc, -lc)

SYNOPSIS

     #include <wchar.h>

     size_t
     wcrtomb(char *restrict s, wchar_t wc, mbstate_t *restrict ps);

     #include <wchar.h>
     #include <xlocale.h>

     size_t
     wcrtomb_l(char *restrict s, wchar_t wc, mbstate_t *restrict ps, locale_t loc);

DESCRIPTION

     The wcrtomb() function stores a multibyte sequence representing the wide character wc, including any necessary shift sequences, to the char-
     acter array s.  A maximum of MB_CUR_MAX bytes will be stored.

     If s is NULL, wcrtomb() behaves as if s pointed to an internal buffer and wc were a null wide character (L'').

     The mbstate_t argument, ps, is used to keep track of the shift state.  If it is NULL, wcrtomb() uses an internal, static mbstate_t object,
     which is initialized to the initial conversion state at program startup.

     While the wcrtomb() function uses the current locale, the wcrtomb_l() function may be passed a locale directly. See xlocale(3) for more
     information.

RETURN VALUES

     The wcrtomb() functions returns the length (in bytes) of the multibyte sequence needed to represent wc, or (size_t)-1 if wc is not a valid
     wide character code.

ERRORS

     The wcrtomb() function will fail if:

     [EILSEQ]		An invalid wide character code was specified.

     [EINVAL]		The conversion state is invalid.

SEE ALSO

     mbrtowc(3), multibyte(3), setlocale(3), wctomb(3), xlocale(3)

STANDARDS

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

NAME

     wcrtomb, c16rtomb, c32rtomb -- convert a wide-character code to a character (restartable)

LIBRARY

     Standard C Library (libc, -lc)

SYNOPSIS

     #include <wchar.h>

     size_t
     wcrtomb(char * restrict s, wchar_t c, mbstate_t * restrict ps);

     #include <uchar.h>

     size_t
     c16rtomb(char * restrict s, char16_t c, mbstate_t * restrict ps);

     size_t
     c32rtomb(char * restrict s, char32_t c, mbstate_t * restrict ps);

DESCRIPTION

     The wcrtomb(), c16rtomb() and c32rtomb() functions store a multibyte sequence representing the wide character c, including any necessary
     shift sequences, to the character array s, storing a maximum of MB_CUR_MAX bytes.

     If s is NULL, these functions behave as if s pointed to an internal buffer and c was a null wide character (L'').

     The mbstate_t argument, ps, is used to keep track of the shift state.  If it is NULL, these functions use an internal, static mbstate_t
     object, which is initialized to the initial conversion state at program startup.

     As certain multibyte characters may only be represented by a series of 16-bit characters, the c16rtomb() may need to invoked multiple times
     before a multibyte sequence is returned.

RETURN VALUES

     These functions return the length (in bytes) of the multibyte sequence needed to represent c, or (size_t)-1 if c is not a valid wide charac-
     ter code.

ERRORS

     The wcrtomb(), c16rtomb() and c32rtomb() functions will fail if:

     [EILSEQ]		An invalid wide character code was specified.

     [EINVAL]		The conversion state is invalid.

SEE ALSO

     mbrtowc(3), multibyte(3), setlocale(3), wctomb(3)

STANDARDS

     The wcrtomb(), c16rtomb() and c32rtomb() functions conform to ISO/IEC 9899:2011 (``ISO C11'').
