PROLOG

6       This  manual  page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.  The Linux

8       Linux  manual page for details of Linux behavior), or the interface may
9       not be implemented on Linux.

NAME

12       wmemchr - find a wide character in memory
13

SYNOPSIS

15       #include <wchar.h>
16
17       wchar_t *wmemchr(const wchar_t *ws, wchar_t wc, size_t n);
18
19

DESCRIPTION

21       The wmemchr() function shall locate the first occurrence of wc  in  the
22       initial n wide characters of the object pointed to by ws. This function
23       shall not be affected by locale and all wchar_t values shall be treated
24       identically. The null wide character and wchar_t values not correspond‐
25       ing to valid characters shall not be treated specially.
26
27       If n is zero, the application shall ensure that ws is a  valid  pointer
28       and the function behaves as if no valid occurrence of wc is found.
29

RETURN VALUE

31       The wmemchr() function shall return a pointer to the located wide char‐
32       acter, or a null pointer if the wide character does not  occur  in  the
33       object.
