strxfrm — string transformation
#include <string.h>
size_t strxfrm( |
char * | dest, |
const char * | src, | |
size_t | n) ; |
The strxfrm
() function
transforms the src
string into a form such that the result of strcmp(3) on two strings
that have been transformed with strxfrm
() is the same as the result of
strcoll(3) on the two
strings before their transformation. The first n
characters of the transformed
string are placed in dest
. The transformation is
based on the program's current locale for category
LC_COLLATE
. (See setlocale(3)).
The strxfrm
() function
returns the number of bytes required to store the transformed
string in dest
excluding the terminating '\0' character. If the value
returned is n
or
more, the contents of dest
are indeterminate.
