LIBRARY

SYNOPSIS
#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);
DESCRIPTION
The
nextwctype
()
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
nextwctype
()
function uses the current locale, the
.Fn nextwctype_l function may be passed a locale directly. See
xlocale(3) for more information.
RETURN VALUES
The nextwctype
() function returns the next
character, or -1 if there are no more.
COMPATIBILITY
This function is a non-standard FreeBSD
extension and should not be used where the standard
iswctype
() function would suffice.

HISTORY
The nextwctype
() function appeared in
FreeBSD 5.4.
