wctrans
POSIX specification:
https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/functions/wctrans.html
Gnulib module: wctrans
Portability problems fixed by Gnulib:
"tolower"
and "toupper"
mappings on some platforms:
NetBSD 10.0.
(It returns non-null values for the arguments "towlower"
and
"towupper"
, but with these values, the function towctrans
always crashes.)
Portability problems not fixed by Gnulib:
wchar_t
is a 16-bit type and therefore cannot
accommodate all Unicode characters.
However, the Gnulib function c32_get_mapping
, provided by Gnulib module
c32_get_mapping
, operates on 32-bit wide characters and therefore does
not have this limitation.
