_strncoll, _wcsncoll, _mbsncoll, _strncoll_l, _wcsncoll_l, _mbsncoll_l

  • Raksts

Compares strings by using locale-specific information.

Important

_mbsncoll and _mbsncoll_l cannot be used in applications that execute in the Windows Runtime. For more information, see CRT functions not supported in Universal Windows Platform apps.

Syntax

int _strncoll(
   const char *string1,
   const char *string2,
   size_t count
);
int _wcsncoll(
   const wchar_t *string1,
   const wchar_t *string2,
   size_t count
);
int _mbsncoll(
   const unsigned char *string1,
   const unsigned char *string2,
   size_t count
);
int _strncoll_l(
   const char *string1,
   const char *string2,
   size_t count,
   _locale_t locale
);
int _wcsncoll_l(
   const wchar_t *string1,
   const wchar_t *string2,
   size_t count,
   _locale_t locale
);
int _mbsncoll_l(
   const unsigned char *string1,
   const unsigned char *string2,
   size_t count,
   _locale_t locale
);

Parameters

string1, string2
Null-terminated strings to compare.

count
The number of characters to compare.

locale
The locale to use.

Return value

Each of these functions returns a value that indicates the relationship of the substrings of string1 and string2, as follows.

Return value Relationship of string1 to string2
< 0 string1 is less than string2.
0 string1 is identical to string2.
> 0 string1 is greater than string2.

Each of these functions returns _NLSCMPERROR. To use _NLSCMPERROR, include either STRING.h or MBSTRING.h. _wcsncoll can fail if either string1 or string2 contains wide-character codes that are outside the domain of the collating sequence. When an error occurs, _wcsncoll may set errno to EINVAL. To check for an error on a call to _wcsncoll, set errno to 0, and then check errno after the _wcsncoll call.

Remarks

Each of these functions performs a case-sensitive comparison of the first count characters in string1 and string2, according to the code page that's currently in use. Use these functions only when there's a difference between the character set order and the lexicographic character order in the code page, and when this difference matters for the string comparison. The character set order is locale-dependent. The versions of these functions that don't have the _l suffix use the current locale, but the versions that have the _l suffix use the locale that's passed in. For more information, see Locale.

All of these functions validate their parameters. If either string1 or string2 is a null pointer, or count is greater than INT_MAX, the invalid parameter handler is invoked, as described in Parameter validation. If execution is allowed to continue, these functions return _NLSCMPERROR and set errno to EINVAL.

By default, this function's global state is scoped to the application. To change this behavior, see Global state in the CRT.
