wcscoll—locale-specific wide-character string compareSynopsis
#include <wchar.h> int wcscoll(const wchar_t *stra, const wchar_t * strb);
Description
wcscoll compares the wide-character string pointed to by
stra to the wide-character string pointed to by strb,
using an interpretation appropriate to the current LC_COLLATE
state.
(NOT Cygwin:) The current implementation of wcscoll simply
uses wcscmp and does not support any language-specific sorting.
Returns
If the first string is greater than the second string,
wcscoll returns a number greater than zero. If the two
strings are equivalent, wcscoll returns zero. If the first
string is less than the second string, wcscoll returns a
number less than zero.
Portability
wcscoll is ISO/IEC 9899/AMD1:1995 (ISO C).
