BTOWC(3) BSD Library Functions Manual BTOWC(3) NAME btowc, wctob -- convert between wide and single-byte characters LIBRARY Standard C Library (libc, -lc) SYNOPSIS #include <wchar.h> wint_t btowc(int c); int wctob(wint_t c); #include <wchar.h> #include <xlocale.h> wint_t btowc_l(int c, locale_t loc); int wctob_l(wint_t c, locale_t loc); DESCRIPTION The btowc() function converts a single-byte character into a correspond- ing wide character. If the character is EOF or not valid in the initial shift state, btowc() returns WEOF. The wctob() function converts a wide character into a corresponding sin- gle-byte character. If the wide character is WEOF or not able to be rep- resented as a single byte in the initial shift state, wctob() returns EOF. The _l-suffixed versions take an explicit locale argument, while the non- suffixed versions use the current global or per-thread locale. SEE ALSO mbrtowc(3), multibyte(3), wcrtomb(3) STANDARDS The btowc() and wctob() functions conform to IEEE Std 1003.1-2001 ("POSIX.1"). HISTORY The btowc() and wctob() functions first appeared in FreeBSD 5.0. BSD February 13, 2012 BSD
