NAME
wsscanf - formatted input conversion SYNOPSIS
#include<stdio.h> #include <widec.h> int wsscanf(wchar_t *s, const char *format, /* pointer */ ... ); DESCRIPTION
The wsscanf() function reads Process Code characters from the Process Code string s, interprets them according to the format, and stores the results in its arguments. It expects, as arguments, a control string format, and a set of pointer arguments indicating where the con- verted input should be stored. The results are undefined if there are insufficient args for the format. If the format is exhausted while args remain, the excess args are simply ignored. The conversion specifications and behavior of wsscanf() are the same as the regular sscanf(3C) function except that the source is a Process Code string for wsscanf() and on Extended Unix Code (EUC) character string for sscanf(3C). RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion, wsscanf() returns the number of characters matched. Otherwise, it returns a negative value. ATTRIBUTES

NAME
wsprintf - formatted output conversion SYNOPSIS
#include <stdio.h> #include <widec.h> int wsprintf(wchar_t *s, const char *format, /* arg */ ... );); DESCRIPTION
The wsprintf() function outputs a Process Code string ending with a Process Code (wchar_t) null character. It is the user's responsibility to allocate enough space for this wchar_t string. This returns the number of Process Code characters (excluding the null terminator) that have been written. The conversion specifications and behavior of wsprintf() are the same as the regular sprintf(3C) function except that the result is a Process Code string for wsprintf(), and on Extended Unix Code (EUC) character string for sprintf(). RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion, wsprintf() returns the number of characters printed. Otherwise, a negative value is returned. ATTRIBUTES
