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.

ATTRIBUTES

For an explanation of the terms used in this section, see attributes (7).
