IEEE/The Open Group                                   2017                                       WCSCOLL(3POSIX)

       For wcscoll(): The functionality described on this reference page is aligned with the ISO C standard. Any
       conflict  between the requirements described here and the ISO C standard is unintentional. This volume of
       POSIX.1‐2017 defers to the ISO C standard.

       The wcscoll() and wcscoll_l() functions shall compare the wide-character string pointed to by ws1 to  the
       wide-character  string  pointed  to by ws2, both interpreted as appropriate to the LC_COLLATE category of
       the current locale, or the locale represented by locale, respectively.

       The wcscoll() and wcscoll_l() functions shall not change the setting of errno if successful.

       An application wishing to check for error situations should set errno to 0 before  calling  wcscoll()  or
       wcscoll_l().  If errno is non-zero on return, an error has occurred.

       The  behavior  is  undefined  if  the  locale  argument  to  wcscoll_l()  is  the  special  locale object
       LC_GLOBAL_LOCALE or is not a valid locale object handle.

       These functions may fail if:

       EINVAL The ws1 or ws2 arguments  contain  wide-character  codes  outside  the  domain  of  the  collating
              sequence.

       wcscoll, wcscoll_l — wide-character string comparison using collating information

       This  manual  page  is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.  The Linux implementation of this interface
       may differ (consult the corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior), or the  interface
       may not be implemented on Linux.

       None.

       Upon successful completion, wcscoll() and wcscoll_l() shall return an integer greater than, equal to,  or
       less  than 0, according to whether the wide-character string pointed to by ws1 is greater than, equal to,
       or less than the wide-character string pointed to by ws2, when both are interpreted as appropriate to the
       current locale, or to the locale represented by locale, respectively. On error, wcscoll() and wcscoll_l()
       shall set errno, but no return value is reserved to indicate an error.
