std::iswspace: std::iswspace

NAME

std::iswspace - std::iswspace

Synopsis


Defined in header <cwctype>
int iswspace( wint_t ch );


Checks if the given wide character is a wide whitespace character as classified by the currently installed C locale. In the default locale, the whitespace characters are the following:


* space (0x20, ' ')
* form feed (0x0c, '\f')
* line feed (0x0a, '\n')
* carriage return (0x0d, '\r')
* horizontal tab (0x09, '\t')
* vertical tab (0x0b, '\v')


If the value of ch is neither representable as a wchar_t nor equal to the value of the macro WEOF, the behavior is undefined.

Parameters


ch - wide character

Return value


Non-zero value if the wide character is a whitespace character, zero otherwise.

Notes


ISO 30112 defines POSIX space characters as Unicode characters U+0009..U+000D, U+0020, U+1680, U+180E, U+2000..U+2006, U+2008..U+200A, U+2028, U+2029, U+205F, and U+3000.

Example


Demonstrates the use of iswspace() with different locales
// Run this code


  #include <iostream>
  #include <clocale>
  #include <cwctype>
  void try_with(wchar_t c, const char* loc)
  {
      std::setlocale(LC_ALL, loc);
      std::wcout << "isspace('" << c << "') in " << loc << " locale returned "
                 << std::boolalpha << (bool)std::iswspace(c) << '\n';
  }
  int main()
  {
      wchar_t EM_SPACE = L'\u2003'; // Unicode character 'EM SPACE'
      try_with(EM_SPACE, "C");
      try_with(EM_SPACE, "en_US.UTF8");
  }

Output:


  isspace(' ') in C locale returned false
  isspace(' ') in en_US.UTF8 locale returned true
