iswpunct(), iswpunct_l()

tests if wide character is neither space nor alphanumeric 

Function

SYNOPSIS

#include <wctype.h>

int iswpunct(wint_t wc);

int iswpunct_l(wint_t wc, locale_t locale);

DESCRIPTION

The iswpunct() and iswpunct_l() functions test for any printing wide character that is one of a locale-specific set of wide characters for which neither iswspace() nor iswalnum() is true.

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

iswpunct_l() behaves in the same way as iswpunct() 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 iswpunct() and iswpunct_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.
