std::wctype(3)

🎀 NAME 🎀

std::wctype - std::wctype — bestie, that's literally the whole name, and this is the std::wctype(3) page from the C++ Standard Library. No cap, we're doing wide-character category lookup today 💅.

✨ Synopsis ✨

Defined in header <cwctype>.

std::wctype_t wctype( const char* str );

Okay so std::wctype constructs a value of type std::wctype_t that describes a LC_CTYPE category of wide character classification. It may be one of the standard classification categories, or a locale-specific category, such as "jkanji" 🌸.

🌟 Parameters 🌟

• str — C string holding the name of the desired category.

The following values of str are supported in all C locales:

• "alnum" — identifies the category used by std::iswalnum
• "alpha" — identifies the category used by std::iswalpha
• "blank" — identifies the category used by std::iswblank (C++11)
• "cntrl" — identifies the category used by std::iswcntrl
• "digit" — identifies the category used by std::iswdigit
• "graph" — identifies the category used by std::iswgraph
• "lower" — identifies the category used by std::iswlower
• "print" — identifies the category used by std::iswprint
• "space" — identifies the category used by std::iswspace
• "upper" — identifies the category used by std::iswupper
• "xdigit" — identifies the category used by std::iswxdigit

💖 Return value 💖

A std::wctype_t object suitable for use with std::iswctype to classify wide characters according to the named category of the current C locale, or zero if str does not name a category supported by the current C locale. Slay 💅.
