NAME

       MB_CUR_MAX - maximum length of a multibyte character in the current locale

SYNOPSIS

       #include <stdlib.h>

DESCRIPTION

       The MB_CUR_MAX macro defines an integer expression giving the maximum number of bytes needed to represent
       a single wide character in the current locale.  This value  is  locale  dependent  and  therefore  not  a
       compile-time constant.

RETURN VALUE

       An integer in the range [1, MB_LEN_MAX].  The value 1 denotes traditional 8-bit encoded characters.

CONFORMING TO

       POSIX.1-2001, POSIX.1-2008, C99.
