ISWPUNCT(3P)            POSIX Programmer's Manual           ISWPUNCT(3P)

PROLOG

       This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.  The
       Linux implementation of this interface may differ (consult the
       corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior),
       or the interface may not be implemented on Linux.

NAME

       iswpunct, iswpunct_l — test for a punctuation wide-character code

SYNOPSIS

       #include <wctype.h>

       int iswpunct(wint_t wc);
       int iswpunct_l(wint_t wc, locale_t locale);

DESCRIPTION

       For iswpunct(): The functionality described on this reference
       page is aligned with the ISO C standard. Any conflict between the
       requirements described here and the ISO C standard is
       unintentional. This volume of POSIX.1‐2017 defers to the ISO C
       standard.

       The iswpunct() and iswpunct_l() functions shall test whether wc
       is a wide-character code representing a character of class punct
       in the current locale, or in the locale represented by locale,
       respectively; see the Base Definitions volume of POSIX.1‐2017,
       Chapter 7, Locale.

       The wc argument is a wint_t, the value of which the application
       shall ensure is a wide-character code corresponding to a valid
       character in the locale used by the function, or equal to the
       value of the macro WEOF. If the argument has any other value, the
       behavior is undefined.

       The behavior is undefined if the locale argument to iswpunct_l()
       is the special locale object LC_GLOBAL_LOCALE or is not a valid
       locale object handle.

RETURN VALUE

       The iswpunct() and iswpunct_l() functions shall return non-zero
       if wc is a punctuation wide-character code; otherwise, they shall
       return 0.

ERRORS

       No errors are defined.

       The following sections are informative.

EXAMPLES

       None.

APPLICATION USAGE

       To ensure applications portability, especially across natural
       languages, only these functions and the functions in the
       reference pages listed in the SEE ALSO section should be used for
       character classification.

RATIONALE

       None.

FUTURE DIRECTIONS

       None.
