iswcntrl - test for control wide character
#include <wctype.h>
int iswcntrl(wint_t wc);
The
iswcntrl() function is the wide-character equivalent of the
iscntrl(3) function. It tests whether
wc is a wide character
belonging to the wide-character class "cntrl".
The wide-character class "cntrl" is disjoint from the wide-character
class "print" and therefore also disjoint from its subclasses
"graph", "alpha", "upper", "lower",
"digit", "xdigit", "punct".
For an unsigned char
c,
iscntrl(c) implies
iswcntrl(btowc(c)), but not vice versa.
The
iswcntrl() function returns nonzero if
wc is a wide character
belonging to the wide-character class "cntrl". Otherwise, it returns
zero.
