WCSNCASECMP(P) Linux Programmer's Manual WCSNCASECMP(P) NAME wcsncasecmp - compare two fixed-size wide-character strings, ignoring case SYNOPSIS #include <wchar.h> int wcsncasecmp(const wchar_t *s1, const wchar_t *s2, size_t n); DESCRIPTION The wcsncasecmp function is the wide-character equivalent of the strncasecmp function. It compares the wide-charac- ter string pointed to by s1 and the wide-character string pointed to by s2, but at most n wide characters from each string, ignoring case differences (towupper, towlower). RETURN VALUE The wcsncasecmp function returns zero if the wide-charac- ter strings at s1 and s2, truncated to at most length n, are equal except for case distinctions. It returns a posi- tive integer if truncated s1 is greater than truncated s2, ignoring case. It returns a negative integer if truncated s1 is smaller than truncated s2, ignoring case. CONFORMING TO This function is a GNU extension. SEE ALSO strncasecmp(p), wcsncmp(p) NOTES The behaviour of wcsncasecmp depends on the LC_CTYPE cate- gory of the current locale.
