This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.
The Linux implementation of this interface may differ (consult
the corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior),
or the interface may not be implemented on Linux.
NAME
wcsftime
--- convert date and time to a wide-character string
SYNOPSIS
#include <wchar.h>
size_t wcsftime(wchar_t *restrict wcs, size_t maxsize,
const wchar_t *restrict format, const struct tm *restrict timeptr);
DESCRIPTION
The functionality described on this reference page is aligned with the
ISO C standard. Any conflict between the requirements described here and the
ISO C standard is unintentional. This volume of POSIX.1-2008 defers to the ISO C standard.
The
wcsftime()
function shall be equivalent to the
strftime()
function, except that:
- *
-
The argument
wcs
points to the initial element of an array of wide characters into which
the generated output is to be placed.
- *
-
The argument
maxsize
indicates the maximum number of wide characters to be placed in the
output array.
- *
-
The argument
format
is a wide-character string and the conversion specifications are
replaced by corresponding sequences of wide characters.
- *
-
The return value indicates the number of wide characters placed in the
output array.
If copying takes place between objects that overlap, the behavior is
undefined.
RETURN VALUE
If the total number of resulting wide-character codes including the
terminating null wide-character code is no more than
maxsize,
wcsftime()
shall return the number of wide-character codes placed into the array
pointed to by
wcs,
not including the terminating null wide-character code. Otherwise,
zero is returned and the contents of the array are unspecified.
ERRORS
No errors are defined.
The following sections are informative.
