iswlower(), iswlower_l() -- tests if wide character is a lowercase letter

SYNOPSIS

#include <wctype.h>

int iswlower(wint_t wc);

int iswlower_l(wint_t wc, locale_t locale);

The iswlower() function tests for any wide character that corresponds to a lowercase letter or is one of a locale-specific set of wide characters for which none of iswcntrl(), iswdigit(), iswpunct(), or iswspace() is true.

The behavior of the iswlower() function is affected by the current locale. To modify the behavior, change the LC_CTYPE category in setlocale(), that is, setlocale(LC_CTYPE, newlocale).

iswlower_l() behaves in the same way as iswlower() without the _l suffix, but uses the specified locale rather than the global or per-thread locale. A locale_t is returned by newlocale().

PARAMETERS

wc: Is a wide character code corresponding to a valid character in the current locale or the value of the macro WEOF.
locale: Is a locale_t perhaps returned by newlocale() or LC_GLOBAL_LOCALE or 0 for the current thread locale set with uselocale().

RETURN VALUES

The iswlower() and iswlower_l() functions return non-zero for true and zero for false. If the parameter is not in the domain of the function, the behavior is undefined.

CONFORMANCE

ANSI/ISO 9899-1990/AM 1-1995.
