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



NAME
       wcsstr - locate a substring in a wide-character string

SYNOPSIS
       #include <wchar.h>

       wchar_t *wcsstr(const wchar_t *haystack, const wchar_t *needle);

DESCRIPTION
       The  wcsstr()  function is the wide-character equivalent of the strstr(3) function.  It searches for the first occurrence
       of the wide-character string needle (without its terminating L'\0' character) as a substring in the wide-character string
       haystack.

RETURN VALUE
       The  wcsstr()  function  returns a pointer to the first occurrence of needle in haystack.  It returns NULL if needle does
       not occur as a substring in haystack.

       Note the special case: If needle is the empty wide-character string, the return value is always haystack itself.

CONFORMING TO
       C99.
