PROLOG

6       This  manual  page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.  The Linux
7       implementation of this interface may differ (consult the  corresponding
8       Linux  manual page for details of Linux behavior), or the interface may
9       not be implemented on Linux.

NAME

12       wmemset — set wide characters in memory
13

SYNOPSIS

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

DESCRIPTION

20       The functionality described on this reference page is aligned with  the
21       ISO C  standard.  Any  conflict between the requirements described here
22       and the ISO C standard is unintentional. This  volume  of  POSIX.1‐2017
23       defers to the ISO C standard.
24
25       The  wmemset()  function  shall  copy  the value of wc into each of the
26       first n wide characters of the object pointed to by ws.  This  function
27       shall not be affected by locale and all wchar_t values shall be treated
28       identically. The null wide character and wchar_t values not correspond‐
29       ing to valid characters shall not be treated specially.
30
31       If  n is zero, the application shall ensure that ws is a valid pointer,
32       and the function shall copy zero wide characters.
33

RETURN VALUE

35       The wmemset() functions shall return the value of ws.
