FUNCTION
<<wcsncasecmp>>---case-insensitive wide character string compare
INDEX
wcsncasecmp
ANSI_SYNOPSIS
#include <wchar.h>
int wcsncasecmp(const wchar_t *<[a]>, const wchar_t * <[b]>, size_t <[length]>);
TRAD_SYNOPSIS
#include <wchar.h>
int wcsncasecmp(<[a]>, <[b]>, <[length]>)
wchar_t *<[a]>;
wchar_t *<[b]>;
size_t <[length]>
DESCRIPTION
<<wcsncasecmp>> compares up to <[length]> wide characters
from the string at <[a]> to the string at <[b]> in a
case-insensitive manner.
RETURNS
If <<*<[a]>>> sorts lexicographically after <<*<[b]>>> (after
both are converted to uppercase), <<wcsncasecmp>> returns a
number greater than zero. If the two strings are equivalent,
<<wcsncasecmp>> returns zero. If <<*<[a]>>> sorts
lexicographically before <<*<[b]>>>, <<wcsncasecmp>> returns a
number less than zero.
PORTABILITY
POSIX-1.2008
<<wcsncasecmp>> requires no supporting OS subroutines. It uses
tolower() from elsewhere in this library.
