DESCRIPTION

     The above functions are character classification utility functions, for
     use with wide characters (wchar_t or wint_t).  See the description for
     the similarly-named single byte classification functions (such as
     isalnum(3)), for details.

     Extended locale versions of these functions are documented in
     iswalnum_l(3).  See xlocale(3) for more information.


RETURN VALUES

     The functions return zero if the character tests false and return non-
     zero if the character tests true.


SEE ALSO

     isgraph(3), ishexnumber(3), isideogram(3), islower(3), isnumber(3),
     isphonogram(3), isprint(3), ispunct(3), isrune(3), isspace(3),
     isspecial(3), isupper(3), iswalnum_l(3), isxdigit(3), wctype(3)


STANDARDS

     These functions conform to IEEE Std 1003.1-2001 (``POSIX.1''), except
     iswascii(), iswhexnumber(), iswideogram(), iswnumber(), iswphonogram(),
     iswrune(), and iswspecial(), which are FreeBSD extensions.


CAVEATS

     The result of these functions is undefined unless the argument is WEOF or
     a valid wchar_t value for the current locale.
