|

.Nd transform a string under locale
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.Fd #include <string.h>
|
|
.Ft size_t
|
|
.Fn strxfrm "char *dst" "const char *src" "size_t n"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn strxfrm
|
|
function transforms a null-terminated string pointed to by
|
|
.Fa src
|
|
according to the current locale collation if any,
|
|
then copies the resulting string
|
|
into
|
|
.Fa dst .
|
|
Not more than
|
|
.Fa n
|
|
characters are copied into
|
|
.Fa dst ,
|
|
including the terminating null character added.
|
|
If
|
|
.Fa n
|
|
is set to 0,
|
|
.Fa dst
|
|
is permitted to be a NULL pointer (it helps to determine an actual size needed
|
|
for transformation).
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Comparing two strings using
|
|
.Fn strcmp
|
|
after
|
|
.Fn strxfrm
|
|
is equal to comparing
|
|
two original strings with
|
|
.Fn strcoll .
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
Upon successful completion,
|
|
.Fn strxfrm
|
|
returns the length of the transformed string not including
|
|
the terminating null character.
|
|
.Sh BUGS
|
|
Sometimes the behavior of this function is unpredictable.
