PROLOG top

       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 top

       mbsinit — determine conversion object status

SYNOPSIS top

       #include <wchar.h>       int mbsinit(const mbstate_t *ps);

DESCRIPTION top

       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.1‐2017 defers to the ISO C standard.       Ifps is not a null pointer, thembsinit() function shall       determine whether the object pointed to byps describes an initial       conversion state.

RETURN VALUE top

       Thembsinit() function shall return non-zero ifps is a null       pointer, or if the pointed-to object describes an initial       conversion state; otherwise, it shall return zero.       If anmbstate_tobject is altered by any of the functions       described as ``restartable'', and is then used with a different       character sequence, or in the other conversion direction, or with       a differentLC_CTYPE category setting than on earlier function       calls, the behavior is undefined.

ERRORS top

       No errors are defined.The following sections are informative.

EXAMPLES top

       None.

APPLICATION USAGE top

       Thembstate_tobject is used to describe the current conversion       state from a particular character sequence to a wide-character       sequence (orvice versa) under the rules of a particular setting       of theLC_CTYPE category of the current locale.       The initial conversion state corresponds, for a conversion in       either direction, to the beginning of a new character sequence in       the initial shift state. A zero valuedmbstate_tobject is at       least one way to describe an initial conversion state. A zero       valuedmbstate_tobject can be used to initiate conversion       involving any character sequence, in anyLC_CTYPE category       setting.

RATIONALE top

       None.

FUTURE DIRECTIONS top

       None.
