10 .TH WMEMCMP 3C "Aug 14, 2002"
12 wmemcmp \- compare wide-characters in memory
18 \fBint\fR \fBwmemcmp\fR(\fBconst wchar_t *\fR\fIws1\fR, \fBconst wchar_t *\fR\fIws2\fR, \fBsize_t\fR \fIn\fR);
24 The \fBwmemcmp()\fR function compares the first \fIn\fR wide-characters of the
25 object pointed to by \fIws1\fR to the first \fIn\fR wide-characters of the
26 object pointed to by \fIws2\fR. This function is not affected by locale and all
27 \fBwchar_t\fR values are treated identically. The null wide-character and
28 \fBwchar_t\fR values not corresponding to valid characters are not treated
32 If \fIn\fR is zero, \fIws1\fR and \fIws2\fR must be a valid pointers and the
33 function behaves as if the two objects compare equal.
37 The \fBwmemcmp()\fR function returns an integer greater than, equal to, or less
38 than 0, accordingly as the object pointed to by \fIws1\fR is greater than,
39 equal to, or less than the object pointed to by \fIws2\fR.
43 No errors are defined.
