<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2>
|
|
|
|
The
|
|
<B>mbsnrtowcs</B>()
|
|
|
|
function is like the
|
|
<B><A HREF="/cgi-bin/man/man2html?3+mbsrtowcs">mbsrtowcs</A></B>(3)
|
|
|
|
function, except that
|
|
the number of bytes to be converted, starting at
|
|
<I>*src</I>,
|
|
|
|
is limited to at most
|
|
<I>nms</I>
|
|
|
|
bytes.
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
If
|
|
<I>dest</I>
|
|
|
|
is not NULL, the
|
|
<B>mbsnrtowcs</B>()
|
|
|
|
function converts at
|
|
most
|
|
<I>nms</I>
|
|
|
|
bytes from the
|
|
multibyte string
|
|
<I>*src</I>
|
|
|
|
to a wide-character string starting at
|
|
<I>dest</I>.
|
|
|
|
At most
|
|
<I>len</I>
|
|
|
|
wide characters are written to
|
|
<I>dest</I>.
|
|
|
|
The shift state
|
|
<I>*ps</I>
|
|
|
|
is updated.
|
|
The conversion is effectively performed by repeatedly
|
|
calling
|
|
<I>mbrtowc(dest, *src, n, ps)</I>
|
|
|
|
where
|
|
<I>n</I>
|
|
|
|
is some
|
|
positive number, as long as this call succeeds, and then incrementing
|
|
<I>dest</I>
|
|
|
|
by one and
|
|
<I>*src</I>
|
|
|
|
by the number of bytes consumed.
|
|
The
|
|
conversion can stop for three reasons:
|
|
<DL COMPACT>
|
|
<DT id="4">1.<DD>
|
|
An invalid multibyte sequence has been encountered.
|
|
In this case,
|
|
<I>*src</I>
|
|
|
|
is left pointing to the invalid multibyte sequence,
|
|
<I>(size_t) -1</I>
|
|
|
|
is returned,
|
|
and
|
|
<I>errno</I>
|
|
|
|
is set to
|
|
<B>EILSEQ</B>.
|
|
|
|
<DT id="5">2.<DD>
|
|
The
|
|
<I>nms</I>
|
|
|
|
limit forces a stop,
|
|
or
|
|
<I>len</I>
|
|
|
|
non-L'\0' wide characters
|
|
have been stored at
|
|
<I>dest</I>.
|
|
|
|
In this case,
|
|
<I>*src</I>
|
|
|
|
is left pointing to the
|
|
next multibyte sequence to be converted, and the number of wide characters
|
|
written to
|
|
<I>dest</I>
|
|
|
|
is returned.
|
|
<DT id="6">3.<DD>
|
|
The multibyte string has been completely converted, including the
|
|
terminating null wide character ('\0')
|
|
(which has the side effect of bringing back
|
|
<I>*ps</I>
|
|
|
|
to the
|
|
initial state).
|
|
In this case,
|
|
<I>*src</I>
|
|
|
|
is set to NULL, and the number of wide
|
|
characters written to
|
|
<I>dest</I>,
|
|
|
|
excluding the terminating null wide character,
|
|
is returned.
|
|
</DL>
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
According to POSIX.1,
|
|
if the input buffer ends with an incomplete character,
|
|
it is unspecified whether conversion stops at the end of
|
|
the previous character (if any), or at the end of the input buffer.
|
|
The glibc implementation adopts the former behavior.
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
If
|
|
<I>dest</I>
|
|
|
|
is NULL,
|
|
<I>len</I>
|
|
|
|
is ignored, and the conversion proceeds as
|
|
above, except that the converted wide characters
|
|
are not written out to memory,
|
|
and that no destination length limit exists.
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
In both of the above cases, if
|
|
<I>ps</I>
|
|
|
|
is NULL, a static anonymous
|
|
state known only to the
|
|
<B>mbsnrtowcs</B>()
|
|
|
|
function is used instead.
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
The programmer must ensure that there is room for at least
|
|
<I>len</I>
|
|
|
|
wide
|
|
characters at
|
|
<I>dest</I>.

|
|
<H2>RETURN VALUE</H2>
|
|
|
|
The
|
|
<B>mbsnrtowcs</B>()
|
|
|
|
function returns the number of wide characters
|
|
that make up the converted part of the wide-character string,
|
|
not including the terminating null wide character.
|
|
If an invalid multibyte sequence was
|
|
encountered,
|
|
<I>(size_t) -1</I>
|
|
|
|
is returned, and
|
|
<I>errno</I>
|
|
|
|
set to
|
|
<B>EILSEQ</B>.

|

The behavior of

<B>mbsnrtowcs</B>()
|

depends on the

<B>LC_CTYPE</B>

category of the

current locale.
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
Passing NULL as
|
|
<I>ps</I>
|
|
|
|
is not multithread safe.
