These functions whose names don't end with _l test whether wc is a wide-character code representing a character of a particular class defined in the LC_CTYPE category of the current locale.
In all cases, wc is a wint_t, the value of which must be a wide-character code corresponding to a valid character in the current locale or must equal the value of the macro WEOF. If the argument has any other values, the behavior is undefined.
Tests whether wc is a wide-character code representing a character of class "alpha" in the program's current locale.
Tests whether wc is a wide-character code representing an English language character, excluding ASCII characters.
Tests whether wc is a wide-character code representing an ideographic language character, excluding ASCII characters.
Tests whether wc is a wide-character code representing digit [0−9], excluding ASCII characters.
Tests whether wc is a wide-character code representing a phonetic language character, excluding ASCII characters.
Tests whether wc is a wide-character code representing a special language character, excluding ASCII characters.
Tests whether wc is a wide-character code representing a character of class "alpha" or "digit" in the program's current locale.
Tests whether wc is a wide-character code representing an ASCII character.
Tests whether wc is a wide-character code representing a character of class “blank” in the program's current locale. This function is not available to applications conforming to standards prior to SUSv3. See standards(7).
Tests whether wc is a wide-character code representing a character of class "lower" in the program's current locale.
Tests whether wc is a wide-character code representing a character of class "cntrl" in the program's current locale.
Tests whether wc is a wide-character code representing a character of class "digit" in the program's current locale.
Tests whether wc is a wide-character code representing a character of class "graph" in the program's current locale.
Tests whether wc is a wide-character code representing a character of class "print" in the program's current locale.
Tests whether wc is a wide-character code representing a character of class "punct" in the program's current locale.
Tests whether wc is a wide-character code representing a character of class "space" in the program's current locale.
Tests whether wc is a wide-character code representing a character of class "upper" in the program's current locale.
Tests whether wc is a wide-character code representing a character of class "xdigit" in the program's current locale.
Functions whose name end with _l accept locale represented by second argument <locale>, and tests wc in the locale specified, instead of in the current locale. Except which locale the test is done in, same test is done as done by corresponding function whose name doesn't end with _l.
The behavior is undefined if the <locale> argument is the special locale object LC_GLOBAL_LOCALE or is not a valid locale object handle.
