This header was originally in the C standard library as <wchar.h>.
This header is part of the null-terminated wide and multibyte strings libraries. It also provides some C-style I/O functions and conversion from C-style Date.
Macros
| implementation-defined null pointer constant (macro constant) | |
| WEOF | a non-character value of type wint_t used to indicate errors (macro constant) |
| WCHAR_MIN | the smallest valid value of wchar_t (macro constant) |
| WCHAR_MAX | the largest valid value of wchar_t (macro constant) |
Types
| conversion state information necessary to iterate multibyte character strings (class) | |
unsigned integer type returned by the sizeof operator (typedef) | |
wint_t | integer type that can hold any valid wide character and at least one more value |
| calendar time type (class) |
