10.72.27 towctrans
¶
POSIX specification:
https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9799919799/functions/towctrans.html
Gnulib module: towctrans
Portability problems fixed by Gnulib:
- This function is missing on some platforms:
Minix 3.1.8, HP-UX 11.00, mingw, MSVC 9, Android 7.1.
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 c32_apply_mapping
, provided by Gnulib
module c32_apply_mapping
, operates on 32-bit wide characters and
therefore does not have this limitation.
