function
<cwctype>
wctrans
wctrans_t wctrans (const char* property);
Return character transformation
Returns a value of type wctrans_t that corresponds to the character transformation by property.
A specific locale can accept multiple transformations for characters. At least the following transformations are recognized by all locales:
| string passed as property | description | equivalent function |
|---|
| "tolower" | to lowercase | towlower |
| "toupper" | to uppercase | towupper |
The value returned by this function depends on the LC_CTYPE locale category selected.
Parameters
- property
- A string identifying a character transformation (see above).
Return Value
A value of type wctrans_t identifying a specific character category.
This value is locale-dependent.
