putwchar - write a wide character to standard output


SYNOPSIS

       #include <wchar.h>

       wint_t putwchar (wchar_t wc);


DESCRIPTION

       The  putwchar function is the wide-character equivalent of
       the putchar function. It writes the wide character  wc  to
       stdout.   If ferror(stdout) becomes true, it returns WEOF.
       If a wide character conversion error occurs, it sets errno
       to EILSEQ and returns WEOF.  Otherwise it returns wc.


RETURN VALUE

       The  putwchar function returns wc if no error occurred, or
       WEOF to indicate an error.


CONFORMING TO

       ISO/ANSI C, UNIX98


SEE ALSO

       fputwc(3)


NOTES

       The behaviour of putwchar depends on the LC_CTYPE category
       of the current locale.

       It  is  reasonable  to  expect that putwchar will actually
       write the multibyte sequence  corresponding  to  the  wide
       character wc.
