DESCRIPTION

17       The wcsspn() function is the wide-character equivalent of the strspn(3)
18       function.  It determines the length of the longest initial  segment  of
19       wcs  which  consists  entirely of wide-characters listed in accept.  In
20       other words, it searches for the first occurrence in the wide-character
21       string  wcs  of  a  wide-character  not contained in the wide-character
22       string accept.
23

RETURN VALUE

25       The wcsspn() function returns the number  of  wide  characters  in  the
26       longest  initial segment of wcs which consists entirely of wide-charac‐
27       ters listed in accept.  In other words, it returns the position of  the
28       first  occurrence  in the wide-character string wcs of a wide-character
29       not contained in the wide-character string accept,  or  wcslen(wcs)  if
30       there is none.
