NAME

strxfrm — transform a string under locale

SYNOPSIS

#include <string.h>

size_t strxfrm(char *dst, const char *src, size_t n);

DESCRIPTION

The idea of strxfrm(); is to “un-localize” a string: the function transforms src, storing the result in dst, such that strcmp(3) on transformed strings returns what strcoll(3) on the original untransformed strings would return.

SEE ALSO

STANDARDS

The strxfrm(); function conforms to

BUGS

Since locales are not fully implemented on OpenBSD, strxfrm(); just returns a copy of the original string.
