mbstowcs - マルチバイト文字列をワイド文字列に変換する  

ライブラリ

標準 C ライブラリ (libc,~-lc)  

書式

#include <stdlib.h>

size_t mbstowcs(size_t dsize;
                wchar_t dest[restrict dsize], const char *restrict src,
                size_t dsize);
 

説明

If dest is not NULL, convert the multibyte string src to a wide-character string starting at dest. At most dsize wide characters are written to dest. The sequence of characters in the string src shall begin in the initial shift state. The conversion can stop for three reasons:
•
不正なマルチバイト列に遭遇した。この場合には (size_t) -1 を返す。
•
dsize non-L'\0' wide characters have been stored at dest. In this case, the number of wide characters written to dest is returned, but the shift state at this point is lost.
•
The multibyte string has been completely converted, including the terminating null character ('\0'). In this case, the number of wide characters written to dest, excluding the terminating null wide character, is returned.

If dest is NULL, dsize is ignored, and the conversion proceeds as above, except that the converted wide characters are not written out to memory, and that no length limit exists.

In order to avoid the case 2 above, the programmer should make sure dsize is greater than or equal to mbstowcs(NULL,src,0)+1.

The programmer must ensure that there is room for at least dsize wide characters at dest.  

返り値

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, (size_t) -1 is returned.

注意

mbstowcs() の動作は現在のロケールの LC_CTYPE カテゴリーに依存している。  

例

下記のプログラムは mbstowcs() といくつかのワイド文字分類関数の使用方法を示したものである。実行例は以下のようになる。

$ ./t_mbstowcs de_DE.UTF-8 Grüße!
Length of source string (excluding terminator):
    8 bytes
    6 multibyte characters

Wide character string is: Grüße! (6 characters)
    G alpha upper
    r alpha lower
    ü alpha lower
    ß alpha lower
    e alpha lower
    ! !alpha
