iswdigit iswdigit_l — test for a decimal digit wide-character code

#include <wctype.h>

int iswdigit(wint_t wc);
[CX] int iswdigit_l(wint_t wc, locale_t locale);

For iswdigit (): [CX] The functionality described on this reference page is aligned with the ISO C standard. Any conflict between the requirements described here and the ISO C standard is unintentional. This volume of POSIX.1-2008 defers to the ISO C standard.

The iswdigit () [CX] and iswdigit_l () functions shall test whether wc is a wide-character code representing a character of class in the current locale, [CX] or in the locale represented by locale, respectively; see XBD V1_chap07(7).

The wc argument is a , the value of which the application shall ensure is a wide-character code corresponding to a valid character in the locale used by the function, or equal to the value of the macro WEOF. If the argument has any other value, the behavior is undefined.

[CX] The behavior is undefined if the locale argument to iswdigit_l () is the special locale object LC_GLOBAL_LOCALE or is not a valid locale object handle.

The iswdigit () [CX] and iswdigit_l () functions shall return non-zero if wc is a decimal digit wide-character code; otherwise, they shall return 0.

No errors are defined.

None.

To ensure applications portability, especially across natural languages, only these functions and the functions in the reference pages listed in the SEE ALSO section should be used for character classification.

None.

XBD V1_chap07(7), <locale.h>, <wctype.h>

First released in Issue 4.

The following change has been made in this version for alignment with ISO/IEC 9899/AMD1:1995 (“ISO C90, Amendment 1”) (E):

  • The SYNOPSIS has been changed to indicate that this function and associated data types are now made visible by inclusion of the <wctype.h> header rather than <wchar.h>.

The normative text is updated to avoid use of the term "must" for application requirements.

The iswdigit_l () function is added from The Open Group Technical Standard, 2006, Extended API Set Part 4.
