MB_CUR_MAX(3)                                                           Linux Programmer's Manual                                                          MB_CUR_MAX(3)

NAME
       MB_CUR_MAX - maximum length of a multibyte character in the current locale

SYNOPSIS
       #include <stdlib.h>

DESCRIPTION
       The  MB_CUR_MAX  macro  defines an integer expression giving the maximum number of bytes needed to represent a single wide character in the current locale.  This
       value is locale dependent and therefore not a compile-time constant.

RETURN VALUE
       An integer in the range [1, MB_LEN_MAX].  The value 1 denotes traditional 8-bit encoded characters.

CONFORMING TO
       POSIX.1-2001, POSIX.1-2008, C99.
