NAME

inwstr, innwstr, winwstr, winnwstr, mvinwstr, mvinnwstr, mvwinwstr, mvwinnwstr - get a string of wchar_t characters from a curses window

SYNOPSIS


#include <curses.h>
 

int inwstr( wchar_t * str );
 

int innwstr( wchar_t * str , int n );
 

int winwstr( WINDOW * win , wchar_t * str );
 

int winnwstr( WINDOW * win , wchar_t * str , int n );
 

int mvinwstr( int y , int x , wchar_t * str );
 

int mvinnwstr( int y , int x , wchar_t * str , int n );
 

int mvwinwstr( WINDOW * win , int y , int x , wchar_t * str );
 

int mvwinnwstr( WINDOW * win , int y , int x , wchar_t * str , int n );

DESCRIPTION

These routines return a string of wchar_t characters in wstr, extracted starting at the current cursor position in the named window. Attributes are stripped from the characters. The four functions with n as the last argument return a leading substring at most n bytes long (exclusive of the trailing NUL). Transfer stops at the end of the current line, or when n bytes have been stored at the location referenced by wstr.

If the size n is not large enough to store a complete character, an error is generated.

NOTES

Note that all routines except winnwstr may be macros.

RETURN VALUES

All routines return ERR upon failure. Upon successful completion, the * inwstr routines return OK, and the * innwstr routines return the number of characters read into the string.
