iswupper(3) Library Functions Manual iswupper(3)
NAME
iswupper - test for uppercase wide character
LIBRARY
Standard C library (libc, -lc)
SYNOPSIS
#include <wctype.h>
int iswupper(wint_t wc);
DESCRIPTION
The iswupper() function is the wide-character equivalent of the isup-
per(3) function. It tests whether wc is a wide character belonging to
the wide-character class "upper".
The wide-character class "upper" is a subclass of the wide-character
class "alpha", and therefore also a subclass of the wide-character
class "alnum", of the wide-character class "graph" and of the wide-
character class "print".
Being a subclass of the wide-character class "print", the wide-charac-
ter class "upper" is disjoint from the wide-character class "cntrl".
Being a subclass of the wide-character class "graph", the wide-charac-
ter class "upper" is disjoint from the wide-character class "space" and
its subclass "blank".
Being a subclass of the wide-character class "alnum", the wide-charac-
ter class "upper" is disjoint from the wide-character class "punct".
Being a subclass of the wide-character class "alpha", the wide-charac-
ter class "upper" is disjoint from the wide-character class "digit".
The wide-character class "upper" contains at least those characters wc
which are equal to towupper(wc) and different from towlower(wc).
The wide-character class "upper" always contains at least the letters
'A' to 'Z'.
RETURN VALUE
The iswupper() function returns nonzero if wc is a wide character be-
longing to the wide-character class "upper". Otherwise, it returns
zero.

NOTES
The behavior of iswupper() depends on the LC_CTYPE category of the cur-
rent locale.
This function is not very appropriate for dealing with Unicode charac-
ters, because Unicode knows about three cases: upper, lower, and title
case.
