WCSNCASECMP(3) Linux Programmer's Manual WCSNCASECMP(3)NAMEwcsncasecmp - compare two fixed-size wide-character strings, ignoring caseSYNOPSIS#include <wchar.h> int wcsncasecmp(const wchar_t *s1, const wchar_t *s2, size_t n); Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see feature_test_macros(7)): wcsncasecmp(): Since glibc 2.10: _POSIX_C_SOURCE >= 200809L Before glibc 2.10: _GNU_SOURCEDESCRIPTIONThe wcsncasecmp() function is the wide-character equivalent of the strncasecmp(3) function. It compares the wide-character string pointed to by s1 and the wide-character string pointed to by s2, but at most n wide characters from each string, ignoring case differences (towup- per(3), towlower(3)).RETURN VALUEThe wcsncasecmp() function returns zero if the wide-character strings at s1 and s2, truncated to at most length n, are equal except for case distinctions. It returns a positive integer if truncated s1 is greater than truncated s2, ignoring case. It returns a negative inte- ger if truncated s1 is smaller than truncated s2, ignoring case.VERSIONSThe wcsncasecmp() function is provided in glibc since version 2.1.ATTRIBUTESFor an explanation of the terms used in this section, see attributes(7). +--------------+---------------+----------------+ |Interface | Attribute | Value | +--------------+---------------+----------------+ |wcsncasecmp() | Thread safety | MT-Safe locale | +--------------+---------------+----------------+CONFORMING TOPOSIX.1-2008. This function is not specified in POSIX.1-2001, and is not widely available on other systems.NOTESThe behavior of wcsncasecmp() depends on the LC_CTYPE category of the current locale.SEE ALSOstrncasecmp(3), wcsncmp(3)COLOPHONThis page is part of release 4.15 of the Linux man-pages project.
