btowc - convert single byte to wide character
Návod, kniha: Linux Programmer's Manual
#include <wchar.h>
wint_t btowc(int c);
The
btowc function converts
c, interpreted as a multibyte sequence
of length 1, starting in the initial shift state, to a wide character and
returns it. If
c is EOF or not a valid multibyte sequence of length 1,
the
btowc function returns WEOF.
The
btowc function returns the wide character converted from the single
byte
c. If
c is EOF or not a valid multibyte sequence of length
1, it returns WEOF.
ISO/ANSI C, UNIX98
mbtowc(3)
The behaviour of
btowc depends on the LC_CTYPE category of the current
locale.
This function should never be used. It does not work for encodings which have
state, and unnecessarily treats single bytes differently from multibyte
sequences. Use the function
mbtowc instead.
