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

NAME
       wcstok - split wide-character string into tokens

SYNOPSIS
       #include <wchar.h>

       wchar_t *wcstok(wchar_t *restrict wcs, const wchar_t *restrict delim,
                       wchar_t **restrict ptr);

DESCRIPTION
       The  wcstok() function is the wide-character equivalent of the strtok(3) function, with an added argument to make it multithread-safe.  It can be used to split a
       wide-character string wcs into tokens, where a token is defined as a substring not containing any wide-characters from delim.

       The search starts at wcs, if wcs is not NULL, or at *ptr, if wcs is NULL.  First, any delimiter wide-characters are skipped, that is, the pointer is advanced be‐
       yond  any  wide-characters  which occur in delim.  If the end of the wide-character string is now reached, wcstok() returns NULL, to indicate that no tokens were
       found, and stores an appropriate value in *ptr, so that subsequent calls to wcstok() will continue to return NULL.  Otherwise, the wcstok()  function  recognizes
       the  beginning  of  a token and returns a pointer to it, but before doing that, it zero-terminates the token by replacing the next wide-character which occurs in
       delim with a null wide character (L'\0'), and it updates *ptr so that subsequent calls will continue searching after the end of recognized token.

RETURN VALUE
       The wcstok() function returns a pointer to the next token, or NULL if no further token was found.

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

NOTES
       The original wcs wide-character string is destructively modified during the operation.

EXAMPLES
       The following code loops over the tokens contained in a wide-character string.

       wchar_t *wcs = ...;
       wchar_t *token;
       wchar_t *state;
       for (token = wcstok(wcs, L" \t\n", &state);
           token != NULL;
           token = wcstok(NULL, L" \t\n", &state)) {
           ...
       }
