       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

       iswlower, iswlower_l — test for a lowercase letter wide-character code

SYNOPSIS

       #include <wctype.h>

       int iswlower(wint_t wc);
       int iswlower_l(wint_t wc, locale_t locale);

DESCRIPTION

       For  iswlower():  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.

       The  iswlower()  and iswlower_l() functions shall test whether wc is a wide-character code
       representing a character  of  class  lower  in  the  current  locale,  or  in  the  locale
       represented  by  locale,  respectively;  see  the Base Definitions volume of POSIX.1‐2017,
       Chapter 7, Locale.

       The wc argument is a wint_t, the value of which the application shall ensure  is  a  wide-
       character  code  corresponding to a valid character in the locale used by the function, or
       equal to the value of the macro WEOF. If the argument has any other value, the behavior is
       undefined.

       The  behavior  is  undefined  if the locale argument to iswlower_l() is the special locale
       object LC_GLOBAL_LOCALE or is not a valid locale object handle.

RETURN VALUE

       The iswlower() and iswlower_l() functions shall return  non-zero  if  wc  is  a  lowercase
       letter wide-character code; otherwise, they shall return 0.

ERRORS

       No errors are defined.

       None.

APPLICATION USAGE

       To  ensure  applications  portability,  especially  across  natural  languages, only these
       functions and the functions in the reference pages listed in the SEE ALSO  section  should
       be used for character classification.

RATIONALE

       None.

FUTURE DIRECTIONS

       None.
