.SH DESCRIPTION
The
.BR wcscasecmp ()
function is the wide-character equivalent of the
.BR strcasecmp (3)
function.
It compares the wide-character string pointed to
by
.I s1
and the wide-character string pointed to by
.IR s2 ,
ignoring
case differences
.RB ( towupper (3),
.BR towlower (3)).
.SH RETURN VALUE
The
.BR wcscasecmp ()
function returns zero if the wide-character strings at
.I s1
and
.I s2
are equal except for case distinctions.
It returns a
positive integer if
.I s1
is greater than
.IR s2 ,
ignoring case.
It
returns a negative integer if
.I s1
is smaller
than
.IR s2 ,
ignoring case.
.SH VERSIONS
The
.BR wcscasecmp ()
function is provided in glibc since version 2.1.
.SH ATTRIBUTES
.SS Multithreading (see pthreads(7))
The
.BR wcscasecmp ()
function is thread-safe with exceptions.
It can be safely used in multithreaded applications, as long as
.BR setlocale (3)
is not called to change the locale.
.SH CONFORMING TO
POSIX.1-2008.
This function is not specified in POSIX.1-2001,
and is not widely available on other systems.
.SH NOTES
The behavior of
.BR wcscasecmp ()
depends on the
.B LC_CTYPE
category of the
current locale.
.SH SEE ALSO
.BR strcasecmp (3),
.BR wcscmp (3)
