NAME
in_wchstr, in_wchnstr, win_wchstr, win_wchnstr,
mvin_wchstr, mvin_wchnstr, mvwin_wchstr, mvwin_wchnstr -
get an array of complex characters and renditions from a
curses window
SYNOPSIS
#include <curses.h>
int in_wchstr(cchar_t *wchstr);
int in_wchnstr(cchar_t *wchstr, int n);
int win_wchstr(WINDOW *win, cchar_t *wchstr);
int win_wchnstr(WINDOW *win, cchar_t *wchstr, int n);
int mvin_wchstr(int y, int x, cchar_t *wchstr);
int mvin_wchnstr(int y, int x, cchar_t *wchstr, int n);
int mvwin_wchstr(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, cchar_t *wchstr);
int mvwin_wchnstr(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, cchar_t *wchstr, int n);
DESCRIPTION
These functions return an array of complex characters in
wchstr, starting at the current cursor position in the
named window. Attributes (rendition) are stored with the
characters.
The in_wchnstr, mvin_wchnstr, mvwin_wchnstr and win_wchn-
str fill the array with at most n cchar_t elements.
NOTES
Note that all routines except win_wchnstr may be macros.
Reading a line that overflows the array pointed to by wch-
str with in_wchstr, mvin_wchstr, mvwin_wchstr or win_wch-
str causes undefined results. Therefore, the use of
in_wchnstr, mvin_wchnstr, mvwin_wchnstr, or win_wchnstr is
recommended.
RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion, these functions return OK.
Otherwise, they return ERR.
Functions with a "mv" prefix first perform a cursor move-
ment using wmove, and return an error if the position is
outside the window, or if the window pointer is null.
PORTABILITY
The XSI Curses defines no error conditions. This imple-
mentation checks for null pointers, returning ERR in that
case.
