wctob — try to represent a wide character as a single byte
#include <wchar.h>
int
wctob( |
wint_t c) ; |
The wctob
() function tests
whether the multibyte representation of the wide character
c
, starting in the
initial state, consists of a single byte. If so, it is
returned as an unsigned char.
Never use this function. It cannot help you in writing internationalized programs. Internationalized programs must never distinguish single-byte and multibyte characters.
The wctob
() function returns
the single-byte representation of c
, if it exists, of
EOF
otherwise.
The behavior of wctob
()
depends on the LC_CTYPE
category of the current locale.
This function should never be used. Internationalized programs must never distinguish single-byte and multibyte characters. Use either wctomb(3) or the thread-safe wcrtomb(3) instead.
