NAME¶
curl_strequal, curl_strnequal - case insensitive string comparisons
SYNOPSIS¶
#include <curl/curl.h>
int curl_strequal(char *str1, char *str2);
int curl_strenqual(char *str1, char *str2, size_t
len);
DESCRIPTION¶
The
curl_strequal() function compares the two strings
str1 and
str2, ignoring the case of the characters. It returns a non-zero (TRUE)
integer if the strings are identical.
The
curl_strnequal() function is similar, except it only compares the
first
len characters of
str1.
These functions are provided by libcurl to enable applications to compare
strings in a truly portable manner. There are no standard portable case
insensitive string comparison functions. These two work on all platforms.
AVAILABILITY¶
These functions will be removed from the public libcurl API in a near future.
They will instead be made "available" by source code access only,
and then as curlx_strequal() and curlx_strenqual().
RETURN VALUE¶
Non-zero if the strings are identical. Zero if they're not.
