15 | .SH NAME | |
16 | iswlower \- test for lowercase wide character | |
17 | .SH SYNOPSIS | |
18 | .nf | |
19 | .B #include <wctype.h> | |
20 | .sp | |
21 | .BI "int iswlower(wint_t " wc ); | |

23 | .SH DESCRIPTION | |
e511ffb6 | 24 | The \fBiswlower\fP() function is the wide-character equivalent of the |
c13182ef MK |
25 | \fBislower\fP() function. |
26 | It tests whether \fIwc\fP is a wide character | |
fea681da MK |
27 | belonging to the wide character class "lower". |
28 | .PP | |
29 | The wide character class "lower" is a subclass of the wide character class | |
aecf31c0 MK |
30 | "alpha", and therefore also a subclass |
31 | of the wide character class "alnum", of | |
fea681da MK |
32 | the wide character class "graph" and of the wide character class "print". |
33 | .PP | |
aecf31c0 MK |
34 | Being a subclass of the wide character class "print", |
35 | the wide character class | |
fea681da MK |
36 | "lower" is disjoint from the wide character class "cntrl". |
37 | .PP | |
aecf31c0 | 38 | Being a subclass of the wide character class "graph", |
fbe183be MK |
39 | the wide character class "lower" is disjoint from the |
40 | wide character class "space" and its subclass "blank". | |
fea681da | 41 | .PP |
aecf31c0 MK |
42 | Being a subclass of the wide character class "alnum", |
43 | the wide character class | |
fea681da MK |
44 | "lower" is disjoint from the wide character class "punct". |
45 | .PP | |
aecf31c0 MK |
46 | Being a subclass of the wide character class "alpha", |
47 | the wide character class | |
fea681da MK |
48 | "lower" is disjoint from the wide character class "digit". |
49 | .PP | |
aecf31c0 MK |
50 | The wide character class "lower" contains at least |
51 | those characters \fIwc\fP | |
52 | which are equal to \fItowlower(wc)\fP and different | |
53 | from \fItowupper(wc)\fP. | |
fea681da | 54 | .PP |
aecf31c0 MK |
55 | The wide character class "lower" always contains |
56 | at least the letters 'a' | |
fea681da MK |
57 | to 'z'. |
58 | .SH "RETURN VALUE" | |
aecf31c0 MK |
59 | The \fBiswlower\fP() function returns non-zero |
60 | if \fIwc\fP is a wide character | |
c13182ef MK |
61 | belonging to the wide character class "lower". |
62 | Otherwise it returns zero. | |

69 | .SH NOTES | |
e511ffb6 | 70 | The behaviour of \fBiswlower\fP() depends on the LC_CTYPE category of the |
fea681da MK |
71 | current locale. |
72 | .PP | |
73 | This function is not very appropriate for dealing with Unicode characters, | |
74 | because Unicode knows about three cases: upper, lower and title case. |
