NAME

13       iswprint, iswprint_l — test for a printable wide-character code
14

SYNOPSIS

16       #include <wctype.h>
17
18       int iswprint(wint_t wc);
19       int iswprint_l(wint_t wc, locale_t locale);
20

DESCRIPTION

22       For iswprint(): The functionality described on this reference  page  is
23       aligned  with the ISO C standard. Any conflict between the requirements
24       described here and the ISO C standard is unintentional. This volume  of
25       POSIX.1‐2008 defers to the ISO C standard.
26
27       The  iswprint()  and  iswprint_l() functions shall test whether wc is a
28       wide-character code representing a character of class print in the cur‐
29       rent  locale, or in the locale represented by locale, respectively; see
30       the Base Definitions volume of POSIX.1‐2008, Chapter 7, Locale.
31
32       The wc argument is a wint_t, the value of which the  application  shall
33       ensure  is  a wide-character code corresponding to a valid character in
34       the current locale, or equal to the value of the  macro  WEOF.  If  the
35       argument has any other value, the behavior is undefined.
36
37       The behavior is undefined if the locale argument to iswprint_l() is the
38       special locale object LC_GLOBAL_LOCALE or is not a valid locale  object
39       handle.
40

RETURN VALUE

42       The  iswprint()  and iswprint_l() functions shall return non-zero if wc
43       is a printable wide-character code; otherwise, they shall return 0.

55       guages,  only  these functions and the functions in the reference pages
56       listed in the SEE ALSO section should be used for character classifica‐
57       tion.
