wcsspn(3)                  Library Functions Manual                  wcsspn(3)

NAME
       wcsspn - get length of a prefix wide-character substring

LIBRARY
       Standard C library (libc, -lc)

SYNOPSIS
       #include <wchar.h>

       size_t wcsspn(const wchar_t *wcs, const wchar_t *accept);

DESCRIPTION
       The wcsspn() function is the wide-character equivalent of the strspn(3)
       function.  It determines the length of the longest initial  segment  of
       wcs  which  consists  entirely of wide-characters listed in accept.  In
       other words, it searches for the first occurrence in the wide-character
       string  wcs  of  a  wide-character  not contained in the wide-character
       string accept.

RETURN VALUE
       The wcsspn() function returns the number  of  wide  characters  in  the
       longest  initial segment of wcs which consists entirely of wide-charac-
       ters listed in accept.  In other words, it returns the position of  the
       first  occurrence  in the wide-character string wcs of a wide-character
       not contained in the wide-character string accept,  or  wcslen(wcs)  if
       there is none.
