.SH PROLOG
This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.
The Linux implementation of this interface may differ (consult
the corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior),
or the interface may not be implemented on Linux.
.SH NAME
wcswidth \- number of column positions of a wide-character string
.SH SYNOPSIS
.LP
\fB#include <wchar.h>
.br
.sp
int wcswidth(const wchar_t *\fP\fIpwcs\fP\fB, size_t\fP \fIn\fP\fB);
\fP

.SH DESCRIPTION
.LP
The \fIwcswidth\fP() function shall determine the number of column
positions required for \fIn\fP wide-character codes (or
fewer than \fIn\fP wide-character codes if a null wide-character code
is encountered before \fIn\fP wide-character codes are
exhausted) in the string pointed to by \fIpwcs\fP.
.SH RETURN VALUE
.LP
The \fIwcswidth\fP() function either shall return 0 (if \fIpwcs\fP
points to a null wide-character code), or return the number
of column positions to be occupied by the wide-character string pointed
to by \fIpwcs\fP, or return -1 (if any of the first
\fIn\fP wide-character codes in the wide-character string pointed
to by \fIpwcs\fP is not a printable wide-character code).
.SH ERRORS
.LP
No errors are defined.
.LP
\fIThe following sections are informative.\fP
.SH EXAMPLES
.LP
None.
.SH APPLICATION USAGE
.LP
This function was removed from the final ISO/IEC\ 9899:1990/Amendment
1:1995 (E), and the return value for a non-printable
wide character is not specified.
.SH RATIONALE
.LP
None.
.SH FUTURE DIRECTIONS
.LP
None.
