The
wcsncmp()
function is the wide-character equivalent of the
strncmp(3)
function.
It compares the wide-character string pointed to by s1 and the
wide-character string pointed to by s2, but at most n wide
characters from each string.
In each string, the comparison extends only up
to the first occurrence of a Laq\0aq character, if any.
RETURN VALUE
The
wcsncmp()
function returns zero if the wide-character strings at
s1 and s2, truncated to at most length n, are equal.
It returns an integer greater than zero if at the first differing position
i (i < n),
the corresponding wide-character s1[i] is
greater than s2[i].
It returns an integer less than zero if at the first
differing position i (i < n), the corresponding
wide-character s1[i] is less than s2[i].
