36.Dt ISSPACE 3 37.Os 38.Sh NAME 39.Nm isspace 40.Nd white-space character test 41.Sh LIBRARY 42.Lb libc 43.Sh SYNOPSIS 44.In ctype.h 45.Ft int 46.Fn isspace "int c" |
47.Ft int 48.Fn isspace_l "int c" "locale_t loc" |
49.Sh DESCRIPTION 50The 51.Fn isspace 52function tests for white-space characters. 53For any locale, this includes the following standard characters: 54.Bl -column \&`\et''___ \&``\et''___ \&``\et''___ \&``\et''___ \&``\et''___ \&``\et''___ 55.It "\&``\et''" Ta "``\en''" Ta "``\ev''" Ta "``\ef''" Ta "``\er''" Ta "`` ''" 56.El 57.Pp 58In the "C" locale, 59.Fn isspace 60returns non-zero for these characters only. 61The value of the argument must be representable as an 62.Vt "unsigned char" 63or the value of 64.Dv EOF . |
65.Pp 66The 67.Fn isspace_l 68function takes an explicit locale argument, whereas the 69.Fn isspace 70function uses the current global or per-thread locale. |
71.Sh RETURN VALUES 72The 73.Fn isspace |
74and 75.Fn isspace_l 76functions return zero if the character tests false and 77return non-zero if the character tests true. |
78.Sh COMPATIBILITY 79The 80.Bx 4.4 81extension of accepting arguments outside of the range of the 82.Vt "unsigned char" 83type in locales with large character sets is considered obsolete 84and may not be supported in future releases. 85The --- 4 unchanged lines hidden (view full) --- 90.Xr iswspace 3 , 91.Xr multibyte 3 , 92.Xr ascii 7 93.Sh STANDARDS 94The 95.Fn isspace 96function conforms to 97.St -isoC . |
98The 99.Fn isspace_l 100function conforms to 101.St -p1003.1-2008 . |
