wctrans_t wctrans(const char *charclass);
wctrans_t wctrans_l(const char *charclass, locale_t locale);
The wctrans() and wctrans_l() functions
are defined for valid character mapping names defined in the
current thread, process or specified locale. The specified character class is a string
identifying a generic character mapping name for which codeset-specific
information is required. The following character mapping names
are defined in all locales:
"tolower"
"toupper"
The wctrans() function returns a value of
type wctrans_t,
which can be used as the second argument to subsequent calls to towctrans().
The wctrans_l() function returns a value of
type wctrans_t,
which can be used as the second argument to subsequent calls to towctrans_l().
The wctrans() and wctrans_l() functions
determines values of wctrans_t according to the rules of the coded
character set defined by character mapping information in the
program's, thread's or specified locale (category LC_CTYPE).
The values returned by wctrans()
are valid until a call to setlocale() that modifies the category LC_CTYPE.
The values returned by wctrans_l()
are valid in wctrans_l calls or until a call to uselocale() that modifies the per thread category LC_CTYPE.
- charclass
-
Is a character class name defining a mapping descriptor to be returned.
On success, wctrans() and wctrans_l()
return a non-zero object of type wctrans_t that can be used
in calls to towctrans() and towctrans_l(). Otherwise it returns 0, and
sets errno to one of the following values:
- EINVAL
-
The specified character mapping
is not valid in the current process, thread or specified locale.
wctrans() conforms to ANSI/ISO 9899-1990/AM 1-1995
MT-Safe, with exceptions.
The function wctrans() is MT-Safe as long as no thread calls setlocale() while
this function is executing.
The function wctrans_l() is MT-Safe as long as no thread calls freelocale() on locale while
this function is executing.
None.
