3 <<wmemcmp>>---compare wide-characters in memory
7 int wmemcmp(const wchar_t *<[s1]>, const wchar_t *<[s2]>, size_t <[n]>);
10 int wmemcmp(<[s1]>, <[s2]>, <[n]>
11 const wchar_t *<[s1]>;
12 const wchar_t *<[s2]>;
16 The <<wmemcmp>> function compares the first <[n]> wide-characters of the
17 object pointed to by <[s1]> to the first <[n]> wide-characters of the
18 object pointed to by <[s2]>. This function is not affected by locale
19 and all wchar_t values are treated identically. The null wide-character
20 and wchar_t values not corresponding to valid characters are not treated
23 If <[n]> is zero, <[s1]> and <[s2]> must be a valid pointers and the
24 function behaves as if the two objects compare equal.
27 The <<wmemcmp>> function returns an integer greater than, equal to,
28 or less than zero, accordingly as the object pointed to by <[s1]> is
29 greater than, equal to, or less than the object pointed to by <[s2]>.
32 <<wmemcmp>> is ISO/IEC 9899/AMD1:1995 (ISO C).
33 No supporting OS subroutines are required.
