wcscasecmp

NAME

wcscasecmp - compare two wide-character strings, ignoring case

SYNOPSIS

#include <wchar.h>
 I int wcscasecmp(const wchar_t * s1 , const wchar_t * s2 );

DESCRIPTION

The R wcscasecmp () function is the wide-character equivalent of the strcasecmp(3) function. It compares the wide-character string pointed to by s1 and the wide-character string pointed to by s2, ignoring case differences (towupper(3), towlower(3)).

RETURN VALUE

The R wcscasecmp () function returns zero if the wide-character strings at s1 and s2 are equal except for case distinctions. It returns a positive integer if s1 is greater than s2, ignoring case. It returns a negative integer if s1 is smaller than s2, ignoring case.

CONFORMING TO

This function is a GNU extension.

NOTES

The behavior of R wcscasecmp () depends on the LC_CTYPE category of the current locale.
