  11 .TH BTOWC 3C "Jun 27, 2014"
  12 .SH NAME
  13 btowc, btowc_l \- single-byte to wide-character conversion
  14 .SH SYNOPSIS
  15 .LP
  16 .nf
  17 #include <stdio.h>
  18 #include <wchar.h>

  20 \fBwint_t\fR \fBbtowc\fR(\fBint\fR \fIc\fR);

  28 \fBwint_t\fR \fBbtowc_l\fR(\fBint\fR \fIc\fR, \fBlocale_t\fR \fIloc\fR);
  29 .fi
  30 .SH DESCRIPTION
  31 .LP
  32 The \fBbtowc()\fR and \fBbtowc_l\fR()functions determines whether
  33 \fIc\fR constitutes a valid (one-byte) character in the initial shift
  34 state.
  35 .LP
  36 The behavior of \fBbtowc()\fR is affected by the \fBLC_CTYPE\fR category of the
  37 current locale.  See \fBenviron\fR(5). The function \fBbtowc_l()\fR does
  38 not use the current locale, and instead operates on the locale 
  39 specified by \fIloc\fR.
  40 .SH RETURN VALUES
  41 .LP
  42 The \fBbtowc()\fR function returns \fBWEOF\fR if \fIc\fR has the value
  43 \fBEOF\fR or if  \fB(unsigned char)\fR\fIc\fR does not constitute a valid
  44 (one-byte) character in the initial shift state.  Otherwise, it returns the
  45 wide-character representation of that character.
  46 .SH ERRORS
  47 .LP
  48 No errors are defined.
