NAME
btowc, btowc_l, wctob, wctob_l -- convert between wide and single-byte characters
LIBRARY
Standard C Library (libc, -lc)
SYNOPSIS
#include <stdio.h> #include <wchar.h> wint_t btowc(int c); int wctob(wint_t c); #include <wchar.h> #include <xlocale.h> wint_t btowc_l(int c, locale_t loc); int wctob_l(wint_t c, locale_t loc);
DESCRIPTION
The btowc() function converts a single-byte character into a corresponding wide character. If the character is EOF or not valid in the ini- tial shift state, btowc() returns WEOF. The wctob() function converts a wide character into a corresponding single-byte character. If the wide character is WEOF or not able to be represented as a single byte in the initial shift state, wctob() returns WEOF. While the btowc() and wctob() functions use the current locale, the btowc_l() and wctob_l() functions may be passed locales directly. See xlocale(3) for more information.
LEGACY SYNOPSIS
The include file <stdio.h> is not necessary for these functions.
