MBSINIT(3)            DragonFly Library Functions Manual            MBSINIT(3)

NAME
     mbsinit, mbsinit_l -- determine conversion object status

LIBRARY
     Standard C Library (libc, -lc)

SYNOPSIS
     #include <wchar.h>

     int
     mbsinit(const mbstate_t *ps);

     #include <xlocale.h>

     int
     mbsinit_l(const mbstate_t *ps, locale_t locale);

DESCRIPTION
     The mbsinit() and mbsinit_l() functions determine whether the mbstate_t
     object pointed to by ps describes an initial conversion state.

     The mbsinit_l() function takes an explicit locale argument, whereas the
     mbsinit() function uses the current global or per-thread locale.

RETURN VALUES
     The mbsinit() and mbsinit_l() functions return non-zero if ps is NULL or
     describes an initial conversion state, otherwise it returns zero.

SEE ALSO

     wcsrtombs(3), xlocale(3)

STANDARDS
     The mbsinit() function conforms to ISO/IEC 9899:1999 (``ISO C99'').
