NAME
wcstok - split wide-character string into tokens
SYNOPSIS
#include <wchar.h>
wchar_t *wcstok(wchar_t *wcs, const wchar_t *delim, wchar_t **ptr);
DESCRIPTION
The wcstok function is the wide-character equivalent of the strtok function, with
an added argument to make it multithread-safe. It can be used to split a wide-char-
acter string wcs into tokens, where a token is defined as a substring not contain-
ing any wide-characters from delim.
The search starts at wcs, if wcs is not NULL, or at *ptr, if wcs is NULL. First,
any delimiter wide-characters are skipped, i.e. the pointer is advanced beyond any
wide-characters which occur in delim. If the end of the wide-character string is
now reached, wcstok returns NULL, to indicate that no tokens were found, and stores
an appropriate value in *ptr, so that subsequent calls to wcstok will continue to
return NULL. Otherwise, the wcstok function recognizes the beginning of a token and
returns a pointer to it, but before doing that, it zero-terminates the token by
replacing the next wide-character which occurs in delim with a L’\0’ character, and
it updates *ptr so that subsequent calls will continue searching after the end of
recognized token.
RETURN VALUE
The wcstok function returns a pointer to the next token, or NULL if no further
token was found.
NOTES
The original wcs wide-character string is destructively modified during the opera-
tion.
EXAMPLE
The following code loops over the tokens contained in a wide-character string.
wchar_t *wcs = ...;
wchar_t *token;
wchar_t *state;
for (token = wcstok(wcs, " \t\n", &state);
token != NULL;
token = wcstok(NULL, " \t\n", &state)) {
...
}
