fea681da | 43 | .SH DESCRIPTION |
60a90ecd MK |
44 | The |
45 | .BR wcsnlen () | |
46 | function is the wide-character equivalent | |
47 | of the | |
48 | .BR strnlen (3) | |
49 | function. | |
c13182ef | 50 | It returns the number of wide-characters in the string pointed to by |
40aa0db0 MK |
51 | .IR s , |
52 | not including the terminating null wide character (L\(aq\\0\(aq), | |
e9c23bc6 | 53 | but at most |
40aa0db0 | 54 | .I maxlen |
1c1c2c10 | 55 | wide characters (note: this parameter is not a byte count). |
60a90ecd MK |
56 | In doing this, |
57 | .BR wcsnlen () | |
40aa0db0 MK |
58 | looks at only the first |
59 | .I maxlen | |
60 | wide characters at | |
61 | .I s | |
62 | and never beyond | |
63 | .IR s+maxlen . | |
47297adb | 64 | .SH RETURN VALUE |
60a90ecd MK |
65 | The |
66 | .BR wcsnlen () | |
40aa0db0 MK |
67 | function returns |
68 | .IR wcslen(s) , | |
69 | if that is less than | |
70 | .IR maxlen , | |
71 | or | |
72 | .I maxlen | |
73 | if there is no null wide character among the | |
74 | first | |
75 | .I maxlen | |
76 | wide characters pointed to by | |
77 | .IR s . | |
