NAME


iswcntrl - test for control wide character

SYNOPSIS


#include <wctype.h>

int iswcntrl(wint_t wc);

DESCRIPTION


The iswcntrl() function is the wide-character equivalent of the iscntrl(3) function. It tests whether wc is a wide character belonging to the wide-character class "cntrl".

The wide-character class "cntrl" is disjoint from the wide-character class "print" and therefore also disjoint from its subclasses "graph", "alpha", "upper", "lower", "digit", "xdigit", "punct".

For an unsigned char c, iscntrl(c) implies iswcntrl(btowc(c)), but not vice versa.

RETURN VALUE


The iswcntrl() function returns non-zero if wc is a wide character belonging to the wide-character class "cntrl". Otherwise it returns zero.

CONFORMING TO


C99.

NOTES


The behavior of iswcntrl() depends on the LC_CTYPE category of the current locale.

SEE ALSO


iscntrl(3), iswctype(3)
