.SH DESCRIPTION
- .sp
.LP
! The \fBwcscoll()\fR and \fBwscoll()\fR functions compare the wide character
string pointed to by \fIws1\fR to the wide character string pointed to by
! \fIws2\fR, both interpreted as appropriate to the \fBLC_COLLATE\fR category of
! the current locale.
! .sp
.LP
! The \fBwcscoll()\fR and \fBwscoll()\fR functions do not change the setting of
! \fBerrno\fR if successful.
! .sp
.LP
An application wanting to check for error situations should set \fBerrno\fR to
! 0 before calling \fBwcscoll()\fR or \fBwscoll()\fR. If \fBerrno\fR is non-zero
on return, an error has occurred.
- .sp
.LP
! The function \fBwcsoll_l()\fR behaves identically to \fBwcsoll\fR, except
! instead of operating in the current environemtn, it operates in the environment
specified by \fIloc\fR.
.SH RETURN VALUES
- .sp
.LP
! Upon successful completion, \fBwcscoll()\fR and \fBwscoll()\fR return an
integer greater than, equal to, or less than 0, depending upon whether the wide
character string pointed to by \fIws1\fR is greater than, equal to, or less
than the wide character string pointed to by \fIws2\fR, when both are
! interpreted as appropriate to the current locale. On error, \fBwcscoll()\fR and
! \fBwscoll()\fR may set \fBerrno\fR, but no return value is reserved to indicate
! an error.
.SH ERRORS
- .sp
.LP
! The \fBwcscoll()\fR and \fBwscoll()\fR functions may fail if:
.sp
.ne 2
.na
\fB\fBEINVAL\fR\fR
.ad
.RS 10n
The \fIws1\fR or \fIws2\fR arguments contain wide character codes outside the
domain of the collating sequence.
.RE

.SH USAGE
.sp
.LP
The \fBwcsxfrm\fR(3C) and \fBwcscmp\fR(3C) functions should be used for sorting
