14 | .SH NAME | |
15 | wcsncasecmp \- compare two fixed-size wide-character strings, ignoring case | |
16 | .SH SYNOPSIS | |
17 | .nf | |
18 | .B #include <wchar.h> | |
19 | .sp | |
20 | .BI "int wcsncasecmp(const wchar_t *" s1 ", const wchar_t *" s2 ", size_t " n ); | |

22 | .SH DESCRIPTION | |
60a90ecd MK |
23 | The |
24 | .BR wcsncasecmp () | |
25 | function is the wide-character equivalent of the | |
26 | .BR strncasecmp (3) | |
27 | function. | |
c13182ef MK |
28 | It compares the wide-character string pointed to |
29 | by \fIs1\fP and the wide-character string | |
30 | pointed to by \fIs2\fP, but at most | |
fea681da | 31 | \fIn\fP wide characters from each string, ignoring case differences |
60a90ecd MK |
32 | .RB ( towupper (3), |
33 | .BR towlower (3)). | |
fea681da | 34 | .SH "RETURN VALUE" |
60a90ecd MK |
35 | The |
36 | .BR wcsncasecmp () | |
37 | function returns zero | |
c13182ef MK |
38 | if the wide-character strings at |
39 | \fIs1\fP and \fIs2\fP, | |
40 | truncated to at most length \fIn\fP, are equal except | |
41 | for case distinctions. | |
42 | It returns a positive integer if truncated \fIs1\fP is | |
43 | greater than truncated \fIs2\fP, ignoring case. | |
44 | It returns a negative integer | |
fea681da MK |
45 | if truncated \fIs1\fP is smaller than truncated \fIs2\fP, ignoring case. |
46 | .SH "CONFORMING TO" | |
47 | This function is a GNU extension. | |

d9bfdb9c | 49 | The behavior of |
60a90ecd | 50 | .BR wcsncasecmp () |

53 | category of the | |
