NAME

wcswcs − Searche for a substring in a wide-character string. 

SYNOPSIS

#include <wchar.h>
wchar_t ∗wcswcs(
        const wchar_t ∗wcstring1,
        const wchar_t ∗wcstring2 );

LIBRARY

STANDARDS

Interfaces documented on this reference page conform to industry standards as follows:

wcswcs(): XSH5.0

The wcswcs() function, although included in Issue 4 and later versions of the XSH specification, is not included in the ISO C standard. Application developers are strongly encouraged to use wcsstr(), which is included in both XSH Issue 5 and the ISO C standard. 

Refer to the standards(5) reference page for more information about industry standards and associated tags. 

PARAMETERS

wcstring1
Points to the wide-character string being searched.

wcstring2
Points to the wide-character string to be located.

DESCRIPTION

The wcswcs() function locates the first occurrence of a wide-character string in another wide-character string. The function locates the first occurrence in the string pointed to by the wcstring1 parameter of the sequence of wchar_t characters (excluding the terminating null wide character) in the string pointed to by the wcstring2 parameter. 

RETURN VALUES

The wcswcs() function returns a pointer to the located wide-character string or a null pointer if the wide-character string is not found. If the wcstring2 parameter points to a wide-character string with zero length, the function returns the wcstring1 parameter.
