NAME¶

mtext_coll - Compare two M-texts using the current locale.

SYNOPSIS¶

int mtext_coll (MText * mt1, MText * mt2)

DESCRIPTION¶

Compare two M-texts using the current locale. The mtext_coll() function compares the two M-texts mt1 and mt2 . It returns an integer less than, equal to, or greater than zero if mt1 is found, respectively, to be less than, to match, or to be greater than mt2 . The comparison is based on texts as appropriate for the current locale (LC_COLLATE). This function makes use of information that is automatically cached in the M-texts as a text property. So, the second call of this function with mt1 or mt2 finishes faster than the first call.
