TOWLOWER(3) Linux Programmer's Manual TOWLOWER(3) NAME towlower, towlower_l - convert a wide character to lowercase SYNOPSIS #include <wctype.h> wint_t towlower(wint_t wc); wint_t towlower_l(wint_t wc, locale_t locale); Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see feature_test_macros(7)): towlower_l(): Since glibc 2.10: _XOPEN_SOURCE >= 700 Before glibc 2.10: _GNU_SOURCE DESCRIPTION The towlower() function is the wide-character equivalent of the tolower(3) function. If wc is an uppercase wide character, and there exists a lowercase equivaβ lent in the current locale, it returns the lowercase equivalent of wc. In all other cases, wc is returned unchanged. The towlower_l() function performs the same task, but performs the conversion based on the character type information in the locale specified by locale. The beβ havior of towlower_l() is undefined if locale is the special locale object LC_GLOBAL_LOCALE (see duplocale(3)) or is not a valid locale object handle. The argument wc must be representable as a wchar_t and be a valid character in the locale or be the value WEOF. RETURN VALUE If wc was convertible to lowercase, towlower() returns its lowercase equivalent; otherwise it returns wc. VERSIONS The towlower_l() function first appeared in glibc 2.3.

NOTES The behavior of these functions depends on the LC_CTYPE category of the locale. These functions are not very appropriate for dealing with Unicode characters, because Unicode knows about three cases: upper, lower, and title case.
