24 Strings library [strings]

24.5 Null-terminated sequence utilities [c.strings]

24.5.6 Multibyte / wide string and character conversion functions [c.mb.wcs]

The headers <cstdlib> ([cstdlib.syn]) and <cwchar> ([cwchar.syn]) declare the functions described in this subclause.

int mbsinit(const mbstate_t* ps);
int mblen(const char* s, size_t n);
size_t mbstowcs(wchar_t* pwcs, const char* s, size_t n);
size_t wcstombs(char* s, const wchar_t* pwcs, size_t n);

Effects: These functions have the semantics specified in the C standard library.

See also: ISO C 7.22.7.1, 7.22.8, 7.29.6.2.1

int mbtowc(wchar_t* pwc, const char* s, size_t n);
int wctomb(char* s, wchar_t wchar);

Effects: These functions have the semantics specified in the C standard library.

Remarks: Calls to these functions may introduce a data race ([res.on.data.races]) with other calls to the same function.

size_t mbrlen(const char* s, size_t n, mbstate_t* ps);
size_t mbrtowc(wchar_t* pwc, const char* s, size_t n, mbstate_t* ps);
size_t wcrtomb(char* s, wchar_t wc, mbstate_t* ps);
size_t mbsrtowcs(wchar_t* dst, const char** src, size_t len, mbstate_t* ps);
size_t wcsrtombs(char* dst, const wchar_t** src, size_t len, mbstate_t* ps);

Effects: These functions have the semantics specified in the C standard library.

Remarks: Calling these functions with an mbstate_t* argument that is a null pointer value may introduce a data race ([res.on.data.races]) with other calls to the same function with an mbstate_t* argument that is a null pointer value.
