_isctype, iswctype, _isctype_l, _iswctype_l

Tests c for the ctype property specified by the desc argument. For each valid value of desc, there's an equivalent wide-character classification routine.

Syntax

int _isctype(
   int c,
   _ctype_t desc
);
int _isctype_l(
   int c,
   _ctype_t desc,
   _locale_t locale
);
int iswctype(
   wint_t c,
   wctype_t desc
);
int _iswctype_l(
   wint_t c,
   wctype_t desc,
   _locale_t locale
);

Parameters

c
Integer to test.

desc
Property to test for. The property is normally retrieved using ctype or wctype.

locale
The locale to use for any locale-dependent tests.

Return value

_isctype and iswctype return a nonzero value if c has the property specified by desc in the current locale. Otherwise, they return 0. The versions of these functions with the _l suffix are identical except that they use the locale passed in instead of the current locale for their locale-dependent behavior. For more information, see Locale.

The behavior of _isctype and _isctype_l is undefined if c isn't EOF or in the range 0 through 0xFF, inclusive. When a debug CRT library is used and c isn't one of these values, the functions raise an assertion.

Generic-text routine mappings

Remarks

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