NEXTWCTYPE(3) Library Functions Manual NEXTWCTYPE(3)

nextwctype, nextwctype_literate through character classes

Standard C Library (libc, -lc)

#include <wctype.h>

wint_t
nextwctype(wint_t ch, wctype_t wct);

#include <xlocale.h>

wint_t
nextwctype_l(wint_t ch, wctype_t wct, locale_t loc);

The () function determines the next character after ch that is a member of character class wct. If ch is -1, the search begins at the first member of wct.

While the () function uses the current locale, the
.Fn nextwctype_l function may be passed a locale directly. See xlocale(3) for more information.

The nextwctype() function returns the next character, or -1 if there are no more.

This function is a non-standard FreeBSD extension and should not be used where the standard iswctype() function would suffice.

wctype(3), xlocale(3)

The nextwctype() function appeared in FreeBSD 5.4.
