WCSCMP(3)                                           Linux Programmer's Manual                                          WCSCMP(3)



NAME
       wcscmp - compare two wide-character strings

SYNOPSIS
       #include <wchar.h>

       int wcscmp(const wchar_t *s1, const wchar_t *s2);

DESCRIPTION
       The  wcscmp() function is the wide-character equivalent of the strcmp(3) function.  It compares the wide-character string
       pointed to by s1 and the wide-character string pointed to by s2.

RETURN VALUE
       The wcscmp() function returns zero if the wide-character strings at s1 and s2 are equal.  It returns an  integer  greater
       than zero if at the first differing position i, the corresponding wide-character s1[i] is greater than s2[i].  It returns
       an integer less than zero if at the first differing position i, the  corresponding  wide-character  s1[i]  is  less  than
       s2[i].

CONFORMING TO
       C99.
