iswctype(3)

NAME

   iswctype - wide-character classification

SYNOPSIS

   #include <wctype.h>

   int iswctype(wint_t wc, wctype_t desc);

DESCRIPTION

   If  wc  is a wide character having the character property designated by
   desc (or in other words: belongs to the character class  designated  by
   desc),  the iswctype() function returns nonzero.  Otherwise, it returns
   zero.  If wc is WEOF, zero is returned.

   desc must be a character property descriptor returned by the  wctype(3)
   function.

RETURN VALUE

   The  iswctype()  function  returns nonzero if the wc has the designated
   property.  Otherwise, it returns 0.
