The <STRONG>getcchar</STRONG> function gets a wide-character string and
rendition from a <STRONG>cchar_t</STRONG> argument. When <EM>wch</EM> is not a null
pointer, the <STRONG>getcchar</STRONG> function does the following:

- The <EM>opts</EM> argument is reserved for future use. Currently,

+ X/Open Curses documents the <EM>opts</EM> argument as reserved for
+ future use, saying that it must be null. This implementa-
+ tion uses that parameter in ABI 6 for the functions which
+ have a color-pair parameter to support extended color
+ pairs:
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> For functions which modify the color, e.g., <STRONG>setc-</STRONG>
+ <STRONG>char</STRONG>, if <EM>opts</EM> is set it is treated as a pointer to
+ <STRONG>int</STRONG>, and used to set the color pair instead of the
+ <STRONG>short</STRONG> pair parameter.
+
+ <STRONG>o</STRONG> For functions which retrieve the color, e.g., <STRONG>getc-</STRONG>
+ <STRONG>char</STRONG>, if <EM>opts</EM> is set it is treated as a pointer to
+ <STRONG>int</STRONG>, and used to retrieve the color pair as an <STRONG>int</STRONG>
+ value, in addition retrieving it via the standard
+ pointer to <STRONG>short</STRONG> parameter.

+
+</PRE><H2><a name="h2-NOTES">NOTES</a></H2><PRE>
The <EM>wcval</EM> argument may be a value generated by a call to
<STRONG>setcchar</STRONG> or by a function that has a <STRONG>cchar_t</STRONG> output argu-
ment. If <EM>wcval</EM> is constructed by any other means, the
effect is unspecified.

When <EM>wch</EM> is a null pointer, <STRONG>getcchar</STRONG> returns the number of
wide characters referenced by <EM>wcval</EM>, including one for a
trailing null.
