24 The \fBwcscspn\fP() function is the wide-character equivalent of the \fBstrcspn\fP()
25 function. It determines the length of the longest initial segment of \fIwcs\fP
26 which consists entirely of wide-characters not listed in \fIreject\fP. In
27 other words, it searches for the first occurrence in the wide-character
28 string \fIwcs\fP of any of the characters in the wide-character string
31 The \fBwcscspn\fP() function returns the number of wide characters in the longest
32 initial segment of \fIwcs\fP which consists entirely of wide-characters not
33 listed in \fIreject\fP. In other words, it returns the position of the first
34 occurrence in the wide-character string \fIwcs\fP of any of the characters in
35 the wide-character string \fIreject\fP, or \fIwcslen(wcs)\fP if there is none.
