This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual. The Linux implementation of this interface may differ (consult the corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior), or the interface may not be implemented on Linux.

NAME¶

iswupper - test for an uppercase letter wide-character code

SYNOPSIS¶

#include <wctype.h>

int iswupper(wint_t wc);

DESCRIPTION¶

The iswupper() function shall test whether wc is a wide-character code representing a character of class upper in the program's current locale; see the Base Definitions volume of IEEE Std 1003.1-2001, Chapter 7, Locale.

The wc argument is a wint_t, the value of which the application shall ensure is a wide-character code corresponding to a valid character in the current locale, or equal to the value of the macro WEOF. If the argument has any other value, the behavior is undefined.

RETURN VALUE¶

The iswupper() function shall return non-zero if wc is an uppercase letter wide-character code; otherwise, it shall return 0.

ERRORS¶

No errors are defined.

The following sections are informative.

EXAMPLES¶

None.

APPLICATION USAGE¶

To ensure applications portability, especially across natural languages, only this function and those listed in the SEE ALSO section should be used for classification of wide-character codes.

RATIONALE¶

None.

FUTURE DIRECTIONS¶

None.
