The
wcsncasecmp()
function is the wide-character equivalent of the
strncasecmp(3)
function.
It compares the wide-character string pointed to
by s1 and the wide-character string
pointed to by s2, but at most
n wide characters from each string, ignoring case differences
(towupper(3),
towlower(3)).
RETURN VALUE
The
wcsncasecmp()
function returns zero
if the wide-character strings at
s1 and s2,
truncated to at most length n, are equal except
for case distinctions.
It returns a positive integer if truncated s1 is
greater than truncated s2, ignoring case.
It returns a negative integer
if truncated s1 is smaller than truncated s2, ignoring case.
CONFORMING TO
This function is a GNU extension.
NOTES
The behavior of
wcsncasecmp()
depends on the
LC_CTYPE
category of the
current locale.
