NAME

wcscasecmp - compare two wide-character strings, ignoring case

SYNOPSIS

#include <wchar.h> int wcscasecmp(const wchar_t *s1, const wchar_t *s2);

DESCRIPTION

The wcscasecmp() function is the wide-character equivalent of the str- casecmp() function. It compares the wide-character string pointed to by s1 and the wide-character string pointed to by s2, ignoring case dif- ferences (towupper(), towlower()).

RETURN VALUE

The wcscasecmp() function returns zero if the wide-character strings at s1 and s2 are equal except for case distinctions. It returns a positive integer if s1 is greater than s2, ignoring case. It returns a negative integer if s1 is smaller than s2, ignoring case.

CONFORMING TO

This function is a GNU extension.
