WCSTOUL(P)                                                          WCSTOUL(P)



NAME
       wcstoul, wcstoull - convert a wide-character string to an unsigned long

SYNOPSIS
       #include <wchar.h>

       unsigned long wcstoul(const wchar_t *restrict nptr,
              wchar_t **restrict endptr, int base);
       unsigned long long wcstoull(const wchar_t *restrict nptr,
              wchar_t **restrict endptr, int base);


DESCRIPTION
       The  wcstoul()  and  wcstoull()  functions shall convert the initial portion of the
       wide-character string pointed to by nptr to unsigned long and  unsigned  long  long
       representation,  respectively. First, they shall decompose the input wide-character
       string into three parts:

        1. An initial, possibly empty, sequence of white-space  wide-character  codes  (as
           specified by iswspace())


        2. A  subject  sequence interpreted as an integer represented in some radix deter-
           mined by the value of base


        3. A final wide-character string of one or more unrecognized wide-character codes,
           including  the terminating null wide-character code of the input wide-character
           string


       Then they shall attempt to convert the subject sequence to an unsigned integer, and
       return the result.

       If  base  is 0, the expected form of the subject sequence is that of a decimal con-
       stant, octal constant, or hexadecimal constant, any of which may be preceded  by  a
       â€â€™+â€â€™ or â€â€™-â€â€™ sign. A decimal constant begins with a non-zero digit, and consists of a
       sequence of decimal digits. An octal constant consists of the prefix â€â€™0â€â€™ optionally
       followed  by  a sequence of the digits â€â€™0â€â€™ to â€â€™7â€â€™ only. A hexadecimal constant con-
       sists of the prefix 0x or 0X followed by a sequence of the decimal digits and  let-
       ters â€â€™aâ€â€™ (or â€â€™Aâ€â€™ ) to â€â€™fâ€â€™ (or â€â€™Fâ€â€™ ) with values 10 to 15 respectively.

       If the value of base is between 2 and 36, the expected form of the subject sequence
       is a sequence of letters and digits representing an integer with the  radix  speci-
       fied  by base, optionally preceded by a â€â€™+â€â€™ or â€â€™-â€â€™ sign, but not including an inte-
       ger suffix. The letters from â€â€™aâ€â€™ (or â€â€™Aâ€â€™ ) to â€â€™zâ€â€™ (or â€â€™Zâ€â€™ ) inclusive are  ascribed
       the  values 10 to 35; only letters whose ascribed values are less than that of base
       shall be permitted. If the value of base is 16, the wide-character codes 0x  or  0X
       may  optionally  precede  the sequence of letters and digits, following the sign if
       present.

       The subject sequence is defined as the longest initial  subsequence  of  the  input
       wide-character  string,  starting  with  the  first wide-character code that is not
       white space and is of the expected form. The subject  sequence  contains  no  wide-
       character codes if the input wide-character string is empty or consists entirely of
       white-space wide-character codes, or if the first wide-character code that  is  not
       white space is other than a sign or a permissible letter or digit.

       If  the subject sequence has the expected form and base is 0, the sequence of wide-
       character codes starting with the first digit shall be interpreted  as  an  integer
       constant.  If  the  subject sequence has the expected form and the value of base is
       between 2 and 36, it shall be used as the base for conversion,  ascribing  to  each
       letter  its value as given above. If the subject sequence begins with a minus sign,
       the value resulting from the conversion shall be negated. A pointer  to  the  final
       wide-character  string shall be stored in the object pointed to by endptr, provided
       that endptr is not a null pointer.

       In other than the C    or  POSIX   locales,  other  implementation-defined  subject
       sequences may be accepted.

       If  the subject sequence is empty or does not have the expected form, no conversion
       shall be performed; the value of nptr shall be stored in the object pointed  to  by
       endptr, provided that endptr is not a null pointer.

       The wcstoul() function shall not change the setting of errno if successful.

       Since  0, {ULONG_MAX}, and {ULLONG_MAX} are returned on error and 0 is also a valid
       return on success, an application wishing to check for error situations should  set
       errno to 0, then call wcstoul() or wcstoull(), then check errno.

RETURN VALUE
       Upon successful completion, the wcstoul() and wcstoull() functions shall return the
       converted value, if any. If no conversion could be performed, 0 shall  be  returned
        and  errno  may be set to indicate the error.  If the correct value is outside the
       range of representable values, {ULONG_MAX} or {ULLONG_MAX}  respectively  shall  be
       returned and errno set to [ERANGE].

ERRORS
       These functions shall fail if:

       EINVAL The value of base is not supported.

       ERANGE The value to be returned is not representable.


       These functions may fail if:

       EINVAL No conversion could be performed.
