FGETWS !!!FGETWS NAME SYNOPSIS DESCRIPTION RETURN VALUE CONFORMING TO SEE ALSO NOTES ---- !!NAME fgetws - read a wide character string from a FILE stream !!SYNOPSIS __#include __''ws''__, int__ ''n''__, FILE *__''stream''__); __ !!DESCRIPTION The __fgetws__ function is the wide-character equivalent of the __fgets__ function. It reads a string of at most ''n-1'' wide characters into the wide-character array pointed to by ''ws'', and adds a terminating L'0' character. It stops reading wide characters after it has encountered and stored a newline wide character. It also stops when end of stream is reached. The programmer must ensure that there is room for at least ''n'' wide characters at ''ws''. !!RETURN VALUE The __fgetws__ function, if successful, returns ''ws''. If end of stream was already reached or if an error occurred, it returns NULL. !!CONFORMING TO ISO/ANSI C, UNIX98 !!SEE ALSO fgetwc(3) !!NOTES The behaviour of __fgetws__ depends on the LC_CTYPE category of the current locale. In the absence of additional information passed to the fopen call, it is reasonable to expect that __fgetws__ will actually read a multibyte string from the stream and then convert it to a wide character string. This function is unreliable, because it does not permit to deal properly with null wide characters that may be present in the input. ----
