NAME¶
wcscmp - compare two wide-character strings
SYNOPSIS¶
#include <wchar.h>
int wcscmp(const wchar_t *s1, const wchar_t *s2);
DESCRIPTION¶
The
wcscmp() function is the wide-character equivalent of the
strcmp(3) function. It compares the wide-character string pointed to by
s1 and the wide-character string pointed to by
s2.
RETURN VALUE¶
The
wcscmp() function returns zero if the wide-character strings at
s1 and
s2 are equal. It returns an integer greater than zero if
at the first differing position
i, the corresponding wide-character
s1[i] is greater than
s2[i]. It returns an integer less than
zero if at the first differing position
i, the corresponding
wide-character
s1[i] is less than
s2[i].
