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

NAME         top

       wcsspn  -  advance  in  a wide-character string, skipping any of a set of wide
       characters

SYNOPSIS         top

       #include <wchar.h>

       size_t wcsspn(const wchar_t *wcs, const wchar_t *accept);

DESCRIPTION         top

       The wcsspn() function is the wide-character equivalent of the strspn(3)
       function.  It determines the length of the longest initial segment of wcs
       which consists entirely of wide-characters listed in accept.  In other words,
       it searches for the first occurrence in the wide-character string wcs of a
       wide-character not contained in the wide-character string accept.

RETURN VALUE         top

       The wcsspn() function returns the number of wide characters in the longest
       initial segment of wcs which consists entirely of wide-characters listed in
       accept.  In other words, it returns the position of the first occurrence in
       the wide-character string wcs of a wide-character not contained in the wide-
       character string accept, or wcslen(wcs) if there is none.
