curs_inwstr(3) UNIX Programmer's Manual curs_inwstr(3)
inwstr, innwstr, winwstr, winnwstr, mvinwstr, mvinnwstr,
mvwinwstr, mvwinnwstr - get a string of wchar_t characters
from a curses window
#include <curses.h>
int inwstr(wchar_t *str);
int innwstr(wchar_t *str, int n);
int winwstr(WINDOW *win, wchar_t *str);
int winnwstr(WINDOW *win, wchar_t *str, int n);
int mvinwstr(int y, int x, wchar_t *str);
int mvinnwstr(int y, int x, wchar_t *str, int n);
int mvwinwstr(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, wchar_t *str);
int mvwinnwstr(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, wchar_t *str, int n);
These routines return a string of wchar_t characters in
wstr, extracted starting at the current cursor position in
the named window. Attributes are stripped from the charac-
ters. The four functions with n as the last argument return
a leading substring at most n bytes long (exclusive of the
trailing NUL). Transfer stops at the end of the current
line, or when n bytes have been stored at the location
referenced by wstr.
If the size n is not large enough to store a complete char-
acter, an error is generated.
Note that all routines except winnwstr may be macros.
All routines return ERR upon failure. Upon successful com-
pletion, the *inwstr routines return OK, and the *innwstr
routines return the number of characters read into the
string.
Functions: curses(3), curs_instr(3), curs_in_wchstr(3)
