NAME

SYNOPSIS

9       #include <wctype.h>
10
11       int iswblank(wint_t wc);

13   Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see feature_test_macros(7)):

16           _ISOC99_SOURCE || _POSIX_C_SOURCE >= 200112L

DESCRIPTION

19       The  iswblank()  function  is  the wide-character equivalent of the is‐
20       blank(3) function.  It tests whether wc is a wide  character  belonging
21       to the wide-character class "blank".
22
23       The  wide-character  class  "blank" is a subclass of the wide-character
24       class "space".
25
26       Being a subclass of the wide-character class "space", the  wide-charac‐
27       ter class "blank" is disjoint from the wide-character class "graph" and
28       therefore also disjoint from its subclasses "alnum", "alpha",  "upper",
29       "lower", "digit", "xdigit", "punct".
30
31       The  wide-character  class  "blank"  always contains at least the space
32       character and the control character '\t'.
33

RETURN VALUE

35       The iswblank() function returns nonzero if wc is a wide  character  be‐
36       longing  to  the  wide-character  class "blank".  Otherwise, it returns
37       zero.

NOTES

53       The behavior of iswblank() depends on the LC_CTYPE category of the cur‐
