10.72.19 iswpunct
¶
POSIX specification:
https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9799919799/functions/iswpunct.html
Gnulib module: iswpunct
Portability problems fixed by Gnulib:
- This function is missing on some platforms:
Minix 3.1.8.
- This function cannot be called from plain inline or extern inline functions
on some platforms:
macOS 10.8.
- This function is inconsistent with the
ispunct
function, because it
returns false for the characters '$'
, '+'
, '<'
,
'='
, '>'
, '^'
, '`'
, '|'
, '~'
on some platforms:
Android 11.
Portability problems not fixed by Gnulib:
- On Windows and 32-bit AIX platforms,
wchar_t
is a 16-bit type and
therefore cannot accommodate all Unicode characters.
However, the Gnulib function c32ispunct
, provided by Gnulib module
c32ispunct
, operates on 32-bit wide characters and therefore does not
have this limitation.
