FPUTWS(3P)                                          POSIX Programmer's Manual                                         FPUTWS(3P)



PROLOG
       This  manual  page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.  The Linux implementation of this interface may differ (con-
       sult the corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior), or the  interface  may  not  be  implemented  on
       Linux.

NAME
       fputws - put a wide-character string on a stream

SYNOPSIS
       #include <stdio.h>
       #include <wchar.h>

       int fputws(const wchar_t *restrict ws, FILE *restrict stream);


DESCRIPTION
       The fputws() function shall write a character string corresponding to the (null-terminated) wide-character string pointed
       to by ws to the stream pointed to by stream. No character corresponding to the terminating null wide-character code shall
       be written.

       The  st_ctime and st_mtime fields of the file shall be marked for update between the successful execution of fputws() and
       the next successful completion of a call to fflush() or fclose() on the same stream or a call to exit() or abort().

RETURN VALUE
       Upon successful completion, fputws() shall return a non-negative number. Otherwise, it shall  return  -1,  set  an  error
       indicator for the stream,  and set errno to indicate the error.

ERRORS
       Refer to fputwc().
