.SH NAME
wctrans \- wide-character translation mapping
.SH LIBRARY
Standard C library
.RI ( libc ", " \-lc )
.SH SYNOPSIS
.nf
.B #include <wctype.h>
.P
.BI "wctrans_t wctrans(const char *" name );
.fi
.SH DESCRIPTION
The
.I wctrans_t
type represents a mapping
which can map a wide character to
another wide character.
Its nature is implementation-dependent, but the special
value
.I (wctrans_t)\ 0
denotes an invalid mapping.
Nonzero
.I wctrans_t
values can be passed to the
.BR towctrans (3)
function to actually perform
the wide-character mapping.
.P
The
.BR wctrans ()
function returns a mapping, given by its name.
The set of
valid names depends on the
.B LC_CTYPE
category of the current locale, but the
following names are valid in all locales.
.P
.nf
"tolower" \- realizes the \fBtolower\fP(3) mapping
"toupper" \- realizes the \fBtoupper\fP(3) mapping
.fi
.SH RETURN VALUE
The
.BR wctrans ()
function returns a mapping descriptor if the
.I name
is valid.
Otherwise, it returns
.IR "(wctrans_t)\ 0" .
.SH ATTRIBUTES
For an explanation of the terms used in this section, see
