Renumber cluase 4 to 3, per what everybody else did when BSD granted them permission to remove clause 3. My insistance on keeping the same numbering for legal reasons is too pedantic, so give up on that point.

.Sh NAME

.Nm wctomb
|
|
.Nd convert a wide-character code to a character
|
|
.Sh LIBRARY
|
|
.Lb libc
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In stdlib.h
|
|
.Ft int
|
|
.Fn wctomb "char *mbchar" "wchar_t wchar"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn wctomb
|
|
function converts a wide character
|
|
.Fa wchar
|
|
into a multibyte character and stores
|
|
the result in
|
|
.Fa mbchar .
|
|
The object pointed to by
|
|
.Fa mbchar
|
|
must be large enough to accommodate the multibyte character, which
|
|
may be up to
|
|
.Dv MB_LEN_MAX
|
|
bytes.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
A call with a null
|
|
.Fa mbchar
|
|
pointer returns nonzero if the current locale requires shift states,
|
|
zero otherwise;
|
|
if shift states are required, the shift state is reset to the initial state.
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
If
|
|
.Fa mbchar
|
|
is
|
|
.Dv NULL ,
|
|
the
|
|
.Fn wctomb
|
|
function returns nonzero if shift states are supported,
|
|
zero otherwise.
|
|
If
|
|
.Fa mbchar
|
|
is valid,
|
|
.Fn wctomb
|
|
returns
|
|
the number of bytes processed in
|
|
.Fa mbchar ,
|
|
or \-1 if no multibyte character
|
|
could be recognized or converted.
|
|
In this case,
|
|
.Fn wctomb Ns 's
|
|
internal conversion state is undefined.
|
|
.Sh ERRORS
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn wctomb
|
|
function will fail if:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Er
|
|
.It Bq Er EILSEQ
|
|
An invalid multibyte sequence was detected.
|
|
.It Bq Er EINVAL
|
|
The internal conversion state is invalid.
