NAME
wctob - try to represent a wide character as a single byte
SYNOPSIS
#include <wchar.h>
int wctob(wint_t c);
DESCRIPTION
The wctob function tests whether the multi-byte representation of the wide charac-
ter c, starting in the initial state, consists of a single byte. If so, it is
returned as an unsigned char.
Never use this function. It cannot help you in writing internationalized programs.
Internationalized programs must never distinguish single-byte and multi-byte char-
acters.
RETURN VALUE
The wctob function returns the single-byte representation of c, if it exists, of
EOF otherwise.
CONFORMING TO
ISO/ANSI C, UNIX98
SEE ALSO
wctomb(3)
NOTES
The behaviour of wctob depends on the LC_CTYPE category of the current locale.
This function should never be used. Internationalized programs must never distin-
guish single-byte and multi-byte characters. Use the function wctomb instead.
