ISWUPPER(3)                Linux Programmer's Manual               ISWUPPER(3)
NAME
       iswupper - test for uppercase wide character
SYNOPSIS
       #include <wctype.h>
       int iswupper(wint_t wc);
DESCRIPTION
       The  iswupper()  function is the wide-character equivalent of the isup-
       per(3) function.  It tests whether wc is a wide character belonging  to
       the wide-character class "upper".
       The  wide-character  class  "upper" is a subclass of the wide-character
       class "alpha", and therefore also  a  subclass  of  the  wide-character
       class  "alnum",  of  the  wide-character class "graph" and of the wide-
       character class "print".
       Being a subclass of the wide-character class "print", the  wide-charac-
       ter class "upper" is disjoint from the wide-character class "cntrl".
       Being  a subclass of the wide-character class "graph", the wide-charac-
       ter class "upper" is disjoint from the wide-character class "space" and
       its subclass "blank".
       Being  a subclass of the wide-character class "alnum", the wide-charac-
       ter class "upper" is disjoint from the wide-character class "punct".
       Being a subclass of the wide-character class "alpha", the  wide-charac-
       ter class "upper" is disjoint from the wide-character class "digit".
       The  wide-character class "upper" contains at least those characters wc
       which are equal to towupper(wc) and different from towlower(wc).
       The wide-character class "upper" always contains at least  the  letters
       'A' to 'Z'.
RETURN VALUE
       The  iswupper()  function  returns  nonzero  if  wc is a wide character
       belonging to the wide-character class "upper".  Otherwise,  it  returns
       zero.

NOTES
       The behavior of iswupper() depends on the LC_CTYPE category of the cur-
       rent locale.
       This  function is not very appropriate for dealing with Unicode charac-
       ters, because Unicode knows about three cases: upper, lower  and  title
       case.
