NAME

       wmemchr - find a wide character in memory

SYNOPSIS

       #include <wchar.h>

       wchar_t *wmemchr(const wchar_t *ws, wchar_t wc, size_t n);

DESCRIPTION

       The  wmemchr()  function  shall  locate  the  first occurrence of wc in the initial n wide
       characters of the object pointed to by ws. This function shall not be affected  by  locale
       and  all  wchar_t values shall be treated identically. The null wide character and wchar_t
       values not corresponding to valid characters shall not be treated specially.

       If n is zero, the application shall ensure that ws is a valid  pointer  and  the  function
       behaves as if no valid occurrence of wc is found.

RETURN VALUE

       The  wmemchr()  function  shall  return a pointer to the located wide character, or a null
       pointer if the wide character does not occur in the object.
