.Sh NAME
|
|
.Nm wctomb
|
|
.Nd converts a wide character to a multibyte character
|
|
.Sh LIBRARY
|
|
.Lb libc
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In stdlib.h
|
|
.Ft int
|
|
.Fn wctomb "char * s" "const wchar_t wchar"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn wctomb
|
|
converts the wide character
|
|
.Fa wchar
|
|
to the corresponding multibyte character, and stores it in the array
|
|
pointed to by
|
|
.Fa s .
|
|
.Fn wctomb
|
|
may store at most
|
|
.Dv MB_CUR_MAX
|
|
bytes in the array.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
In state-dependent encoding,
|
|
.Fn wctomb
|
|
may store the special sequence to change the conversion state
|
|
before an actual multibyte character into the array pointed to by
|
|
.Fa s .
|
|
If
|
|
.Fa wchar
|
|
is a nul wide character
|
|
.Pq Sq \e0 ,
|
|
this function sets its own internal state to an initial conversion state.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Calling any other functions in
|
|
.Lb libc
|
|
never changes the internal state of
|
|
.Fn wctomb ,
|
|
except changing the
|
|
.Dv LC_CTYPE
|
|
category of the current locale by calling
|
|
.Xr setlocale 3 .
|
|
Such
|
|
.Xr setlocale 3
|
|
calls cause the internal state of this function to be indeterminate.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The behaviour of
|
|
.Fn wctomb
|
|
is affected by the
|
|
.Dv LC_CTYPE
|
|
category of the current locale.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
There is one special case:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width 012345678901
|
|
.It s == NULL
|
|
.Fn wctomb
|
|
initializes its own internal state to an initial state, and
|
|
determines whether the current encoding is state-dependent.
|
|
This function returns 0 if the encoding is state-independent,
|
|
otherwise non-zero.
|
|
In this case,
|
|
.Fa wchar
|
|
is completely ignored.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
Normally,
|
|
.Fn wctomb
|
|
returns:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width 012345678901
|
|
.It positive
|
|
Number of bytes for the valid multibyte character pointed to by
|
|
.Fa s .
|
|
There are no cases that the value returned is greater than
|
|
.Fa n
|
|
or the value of the
|
|
.Dv MB_CUR_MAX
|
|
macro.
|
|
.It -1
|
|
.Fa wchar
|
|
is an invalid wide character.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If
|
|
.Fa s
|
|
is equal to
|
|
.Dv NULL ,
|
|
.Fn mbtowc
|
|
returns:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width 0123456789
|
|
.It 0
|
|
The current encoding is state-independent.
|
|
.It non-zero
|
|
The current encoding is state-dependent.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Sh ERRORS
|
|
No errors are defined.
