NAME

getcchar, setcchar - Get a wide character string and rendition from a cchar_t or set a cchar_t from a wide-character string

SYNOPSIS

#include <curses.h>
 
int getcchar(
 
const cchar_t * wcval,
 
wchar_t * wch,
 
attr_t * attrs,
 
short * color_pair,
 
void * opts );
 
int setcchar(
 
cchar_t * wcval,
 
const wchar_t * wch,
 
const attr_t attrs,
 
short color_pair,
 
void * opts );

DESCRIPTION

The getcchar function gets a wide-character string and rendition from a cchar_t argument. When wch is not a null pointer, the getcchar function does the following:
-
Extracts information from a cchar_t value wcval
-
Stores the character attributes in the location pointed to by attrs
-
Stores the color-pair in the location pointed to by color_pair
-
Stores the wide-character string, characters referenced by wcval, into the array pointed to by wch.

When wch is a null pointer, the getcchar function does the following:

-
Obtains the number of wide characters pointed to by wcval
-
Does not change the data referenced by attrs or color_pair

The setcchar function initializes the location pointed to by wcval by using:

-
The character attributes in attrs
-
The color pair in color_pair
-
The wide-character string pointed to by wch. The string must be L'\0' terminated, contain at most one spacing character, which must be the first.
Up to CCHARW_MAX-1 nonspacing characters may follow. Additional nonspacing characters are ignored.
The string may contain a single control character instead. In that case, no nonspacing characters are allowed.

NOTES

The opts argument is reserved for future use. Currently, an application must provide a null pointer as opts.

The wcval argument may be a value generated by a call to setcchar or by a function that has a cchar_t output argument. If wcval is constructed by any other means, the effect is unspecified.

RETURN VALUES

When wch is a null pointer, getcchar returns the number of wide characters referenced by wcval.

When wch is not a null pointer, getcchar returns OK upon successful completion, and ERR otherwise.

Upon successful completion, setcchar returns OK. Otherwise, it returns ERR.
