MBSINIT(3P) POSIX Programmer's Manual MBSINIT(3P)
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.
mbsinit — determine conversion object status
#include <wchar.h>
int mbsinit(const mbstate_t *ps);
The functionality described on this reference page is aligned with
the ISO C standard. Any conflict between the requirements described
here and the ISO C standard is unintentional. This volume of
POSIX.1‐2008 defers to the ISO C standard.
If ps is not a null pointer, the mbsinit() function shall determine
whether the object pointed to by ps describes an initial conversion
state.
The mbsinit() function shall return non-zero if ps is a null pointer,
or if the pointed-to object describes an initial conversion state;
otherwise, it shall return zero.
If an mbstate_t object is altered by any of the functions described
as ``restartable'', and is then used with a different character
sequence, or in the other conversion direction, or with a different
LC_CTYPE category setting than on earlier function calls, the
behavior is undefined.
No errors are defined.
The following sections are informative.
None.
The mbstate_t object is used to describe the current conversion state
from a particular character sequence to a wide-character sequence (or
vice versa) under the rules of a particular setting of the LC_CTYPE
category of the current locale.
The initial conversion state corresponds, for a conversion in either
direction, to the beginning of a new character sequence in the
initial shift state. A zero valued mbstate_t object is at least one
way to describe an initial conversion state. A zero valued mbstate_t
object can be used to initiate conversion involving any character
sequence, in any LC_CTYPE category setting.
None.
None.
