wchar.h(0P) POSIX Programmer's Manual wchar.h(0P)
This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual. The Linux
implementation of this interface may differ (consult the
corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior), or
the interface may not be implemented on Linux.
wchar.h — wide-character handling
#include <wchar.h>
Some of the functionality described on this reference page extends
the ISO C standard. Applications shall define the appropriate feature
test macro (see the System Interfaces volume of POSIX.1‐2008, Section
2.2, The Compilation Environment) to enable the visibility of these
symbols in this header.
The <wchar.h> header shall define the following types:
FILE As described in <stdio.h>.
locale_t As described in <locale.h>.
mbstate_t An object type other than an array type that can hold the
conversion state information necessary to convert between
sequences of (possibly multi-byte) characters and wide
characters. If a codeset is being used such that an
mbstate_t needs to preserve more than two levels of
reserved state, the results are unspecified.
size_t As described in <stddef.h>.
va_list As described in <stdarg.h>.
wchar_t As described in <stddef.h>.
wctype_t A scalar type of a data object that can hold values which
represent locale-specific character classification.
wint_t An integer type capable of storing any valid value of
wchar_t or WEOF.
The tag tm shall be declared as naming an incomplete structure type,
the contents of which are described in the <time.h> header.
The implementation shall support one or more programming environments
in which the width of wint_t is no greater than the width of type
long. The names of these programming environments can be obtained
using the confstr() function or the getconf utility.
The <wchar.h> header shall define the following macros:
WCHAR_MAX As described in <stdint.h>.
WCHAR_MIN As described in <stdint.h>.
WEOF Constant expression of type wint_t that is returned by
several WP functions to indicate end-of-file.
NULL As described in <stddef.h>.
Inclusion of the <wchar.h> header may make visible all symbols from
the headers <ctype.h>, <string.h>, <stdarg.h>, <stddef.h>, <stdio.h>,
<stdlib.h>, and <time.h>.
The following shall be declared as functions and may also be defined
as macros. Function prototypes shall be provided for use with ISO C
standard compilers.

The following sections are informative.
The iswblank() function was a late addition to the ISO C standard and
was introduced at the same time as the ISO C standard introduced
<wctype.h>, which contains all of the isw*() functions. The Open
Group Base Specifications had previously aligned with the MSE working
draft and had introduced the rest of the isw*() functions into
<wchar.h>. For backwards-compatibility, the original set of isw*()
functions, without iswblank(), are permitted (as part of the XSI
option) in <wchar.h>. For maximum portability, applications should
include <wctype.h> in order to obtain declarations for the isw*()
functions. This compatibility has been made obsolescent.
In the ISO C standard, the symbols referenced as XSI extensions are
in <wctype.h>. Their presence here is thus an extension.
