NAME
iswblank - test for whitespace wide character
LIBRARY
Standard C library
(libc, -lc)
SYNOPSIS
#include <wctype.h>
int iswblank(wint_t wc);
Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see
feature_test_macros(7)):
iswblank():
_ISOC99_SOURCE || _POSIX_C_SOURCE >= 200112L
DESCRIPTION
The
iswblank()
function is the wide-character equivalent of the
isblank(3)
function.
It tests whether wc is a wide character
belonging to the wide-character class "blank".
The wide-character class "blank" is a subclass of the wide-character class
"space".
Being a subclass of the wide-character class "space",
the wide-character class "blank" is disjoint from the
wide-character class "graph" and therefore also disjoint
from its subclasses "alnum", "alpha", "upper", "lower", "digit",
"xdigit", "punct".
The wide-character class "blank" always contains
at least the space character
and the control character '\t'.
RETURN VALUE
The
iswblank()
function returns nonzero
if wc is a wide character
belonging to the wide-character class "blank".
Otherwise, it returns zero.
