The @code{c-strcase} module contains case-insensitive string comparison
|
|
functions operating on single-byte character strings, like the functions in
|
|
@code{<strings.h>}, that operate as if the locale encoding was ASCII.
|
|
(The "C" locale on many systems has the locale encoding "ASCII".)
|
|
|
|
The functions are:
|
|
@smallexample
|
|
extern int c_strcasecmp (const char *s1, const char *s2);
|
|
extern int c_strncasecmp (const char *s1, const char *s2, size_t n);
|
|
@end smallexample
|
|
|
|
For case conversion here, only ASCII characters are considered to be
|
|
upper case or lower case.
|
|
|
|
Note: The functions @code{strcasecmp}, @code{strncasecmp} from
|
|
@code{<strings.h>} support only unibyte locales; for multibyte locales,
|
|
you need the functions @code{mbscasecmp}, @code{mbsncasecmp},
|
|
@code{mbspcasecmp}.
