The wcrtomb(), c16rtomb() and c32rtomb() functions store a multibyte
sequence representing the wide character wc, including any necessary shift
sequences, to the character array s, storing a maximum of MB_CUR_MAX
bytes.
If s is a null pointer,
the wcrtomb() function is equivalent to the call:
wcrtomb(buf, L'\0', ps)
where buf is an internal buffer.
If s is not a null pointer, the wcrtomb()
function determines the number of bytes needed to represent the character
that corresponds to the wide character given by wc
(including any shift sequences), and stores the resulting bytes in the
array pointed to by s.
At most MB_CUR_MAX (or MB_CUR_MAX_L bytes are stored. If wc is a
null wide character, a null byte is stored, preceded by any shift
sequence needed to restore the initial shift state. The resulting
state described is the initial conversion state.
If the specified state pointer is null, the wcrtomb()
function uses its own internal mbstate_t object, which is
initialized at program startup to the initial conversion state.
Otherwise, the specified mbstate_t
object is used to completely describe the current conversion
state of the associated character sequence.
The behavior of this function
is affected by the LC_CTYPE category of the current locale.
wcrtomb_l() c16rtomb_l() and c32rtomb_l()
functions behave in the same way as wcrtomb(), c16rtomb() and c32rtomb()
without the _l suffix, but uses the specified locale rather than the
global or per-thread locale. A locale_t is returned by newlocale().
As certain multibyte characters may only be represented by a series of
16-bit characters, the c16rtomb() may need to invoked multiple times
before a multibyte sequence is returned.
- s
-
Is the buffer used to receive the converted character.
This can be a null pointer if no conversion is desired.
- wc
-
Is the wide character to convert.
- ps
-
Is the conversion state. If this
is null, an internal mbstate_t object is used.
- locale
-
Is a locale_t perhaps returned by newlocale() or
LC_GLOBAL_LOCALE or 0 for the current thread locale set with uselocale().
The wcrtomb(), c16rtomb(), c32rtomb(), wcrtomb_l() c16rtomb_l(), and c32rtomb_l() functions return the number of bytes stored
in the array object (including any shift sequences). This value may be 0, e.g. when processing the first char16_t in a surrogate pair. When wc
is not a valid wide character, an encoding error occurs. In this case,
errno is set to EILSEQ and -1 is returned;
the conversion state is undefined.
wcrtomb() conforms to ANSI/ISO 9899:1990 'ISO C90'
wcrtomb_l() conforms to ANSI/ISO 9899:1999 'ISO C99'

MT-Safe, with exceptions.
The function wcrtomb(), c16rtomb() and c32rtomb() are MT-Safe as long as no thread calls setlocale() while
these functions are executing and NULL is not passed the ps pointer.
The function wcrtomb_l(), c16rtomb_l() and c32rtomb_l() are MT-Safe as long as no thread calls freelocale() on locale while these functions are executing and NULL is not passed the ps pointer.
None.
