NAME

6       wmemcmp - compare two arrays of wide-characters
7

SYNOPSIS

9       #include <wchar.h>
10
11       int wmemcmp(const wchar_t *s1, const wchar_t *s2, size_t n);
12

DESCRIPTION

14       The  wmemcmp()  function  is  the wide-character equivalent of the mem‐
15       cmp(3) function.  It compares the n wide-characters starting at s1  and
16       the n wide-characters starting at s2.
17

RETURN VALUE

19       The  wmemcmp()  function  returns  zero if the wide-character arrays of
20       size n at s1 and s2 are equal.  It returns an integer greater than zero
21       if  at  the first differing position i (i < n), the corresponding wide-
22       character s1[i] is greater than s2[i].  It returns an integer less than
23       zero  if  at  the first differing position i (i < n), the corresponding
24       wide-character s1[i] is less than s2[i].
