18 These functions shall convert the initial portion of the wide-character
19 string pointed to by nptr to long, long long, unsigned long, and
20 unsigned long long representation, respectively. First, they shall
21 decompose the input string into three parts:
22 1. An initial, possibly empty, sequence of white-space wide-character
24 codes (as specified by iswspace())
25 2. A subject sequence interpreted as an integer represented in some
27 radix determined by the value of base
28 3. A final wide-character string of one or more unrecognized wide-
30 character codes, including the terminating null wide-character code
31 of the input wide-character string
32 Then they shall attempt to convert the subject sequence to an integer,
34 and return the result.
35 If base is 0, the expected form of the subject sequence is that of a
37 decimal constant, octal constant, or hexadecimal constant, any of which
38 may be preceded by a '+' or '-' sign. A decimal constant begins with a
39 non-zero digit, and consists of a sequence of decimal digits. An octal
40 constant consists of the prefix '0' optionally followed by a sequence
41 of the digits '0' to '7' only. A hexadecimal constant consists of the
42 prefix 0x or 0X followed by a sequence of the decimal digits and let‐
43 ters 'a' (or 'A' ) to 'f' (or 'F' ) with values 10 to 15 respectively.
44 If the value of base is between 2 and 36, the expected form of the sub‐
46 ject sequence is a sequence of letters and digits representing an inte‐
47 ger with the radix specified by base, optionally preceded by a '+' or
48 '-' sign, but not including an integer suffix. The letters from 'a' (or
49 'A' ) to 'z' (or 'Z' ) inclusive are ascribed the values 10 to 35; only
50 letters whose ascribed values are less than that of base shall be per‐
51 mitted. If the value of base is 16, the wide-character code representa‐
52 tions of 0x or 0X may optionally precede the sequence of letters and
53 digits, following the sign if present.
54 The subject sequence is defined as the longest initial subsequence of
56 the input wide-character string, starting with the first non-white-
57 space wide-character code that is of the expected form. The subject
58 sequence contains no wide-character codes if the input wide-character
59 string is empty or consists entirely of white-space wide-character
60 code, or if the first non-white-space wide-character code is other than
61 a sign or a permissible letter or digit.
62 If the subject sequence has the expected form and base is 0, the
64 sequence of wide-character codes starting with the first digit shall be
65 interpreted as an integer constant. If the subject sequence has the
66 expected form and the value of base is between 2 and 36, it shall be
67 used as the base for conversion, ascribing to each letter its value as
68 given above. If the subject sequence begins with a minus sign, the
69 value resulting from the conversion shall be negated. A pointer to the
70 final wide-character string shall be stored in the object pointed to by
71 endptr, provided that endptr is not a null pointer.
72 In other than the C or POSIX locales, other implementation-defined
74 subject sequences may be accepted.
75 If the subject sequence is empty or does not have the expected form, no
77 conversion shall be performed; the value of nptr shall be stored in the
78 object pointed to by endptr, provided that endptr is not a null
79 pointer.
80 These functions shall not change the setting of errno if successful.
82 Since 0, {LONG_MIN} or {LLONG_MIN} and {LONG_MAX} or {LLONG_MAX} are
84 returned on error and are also valid returns on success, an application
85 wishing to check for error situations should set errno to 0, then call
86 wcstol() or wcstoll(), then check errno.
87
89 Upon successful completion, these functions shall return the converted
90 value, if any. If no conversion could be performed, 0 shall be returned
91 and errno may be set to indicate the error. If the correct value is
92 outside the range of representable values, {LONG_MIN}, {LONG_MAX},
93 {LLONG_MIN}, or {LLONG_MAX} shall be returned (according to the sign of
94 the value), and errno set to [ERANGE].
95
97 These functions shall fail if:
98 EINVAL The value of base is not supported.
100 ERANGE The value to be returned is not representable.
102 These functions may fail if:
105 EINVAL No conversion could be performed.
