#include <wctype.h>

int
iswctype(wint_t wc, wctype_t charclass);

The () function returns a boolean value that indicates whether a wide character wc is in charclass.

The behaviour of the () is undefined if the iswctype() function is called with an invalid charclass (changes of LC_CTYPE category invalidate charclass) or invalid wide character wc.

The behaviour of the () is affected by the LC_CTYPE category of the current locale.

The iswcttype() returns:

0
wc is not in charclass.
non-zero
wc is in charclass.

No errors are defined.
