PUTWC(3)                NetBSD Library Functions Manual               PUTWC(3)


NAME

     fputwc, putwc, putwchar, -- output a wide-character to a stream


LIBRARY

     Standard C Library (libc, -lc)


SYNOPSIS

     #include <stdio.h>
     #include <wchar.h>

     wint_t
     fputwc(wchar_t wc, FILE *stream);

     wint_t
     putwc(wchar_t wc, FILE *stream);

     wint_t
     putwchar(wchar_t wc);


DESCRIPTION

     The fputwc() function writes the wide-character wc to the output stream
     pointed to by stream.

     putwc() acts essentially identically to fputwc(), but is a macro that
     expands in-line.  It may evaluate stream more than once, so arguments
     given to putwc() should not be expressions with potential side effects.

     putwchar() is identical to putwc() with an output stream of stdout.


RETURN VALUES

     The functions fputwc(), putwc(), and putwchar() return the wide-character
     written.  If an error occurs, the value WEOF is returned.


SEE ALSO

     ferror(3), fopen(3), getwc(3), stdio(3)


STANDARDS

     The functions fputwc(), putwc(), and putwchar(), conform to ISO/IEC
     9899:1999 (``ISO C99'').
