curs_in_wchstr(3x)                                   curs_in_wchstr(3x)




NAME

       in_wchstr, in_wchnstr, win_wchstr, win_wchnstr,
       mvin_wchstr, mvin_wchnstr, mvwin_wchstr, mvwin_wchnstr -
       get an array of complex characters and renditions from a
       curses window


SYNOPSIS

       #include <curses.h>

       int in_wchstr(cchar_t *wchstr);
       int in_wchnstr(cchar_t *wchstr, int n);
       int win_wchstr(WINDOW *win, cchar_t *wchstr);
       int win_wchnstr(WINDOW *win, cchar_t *wchstr, int n);
       int mvin_wchstr(int y, int x, cchar_t *wchstr);
       int mvin_wchnstr(int y, int x, cchar_t *wchstr, int n);
       int mvwin_wchstr(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, cchar_t *wchstr);
       int mvwin_wchnstr(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, cchar_t *wchstr, int n);


DESCRIPTION

       These functions return an array of complex  characters  in
       wchstr,  starting  at  the  current cursor position in the
       named window.  Attributes (rendition) are stored with  the
       characters.

       The  in_wchnstr, mvin_wchnstr, mvwin_wchnstr and win_wchn-
       str fill the array with at most n cchar_t elements.


NOTES

       Note that all routines except win_wchnstr may be macros.

       Reading a line that overflows the array pointed to by wch-
       str  with in_wchstr, mvin_wchstr, mvwin_wchstr or win_wch-
       str  causes  undefined  results.  Therefore,  the  use  of
       in_wchnstr, mvin_wchnstr, mvwin_wchnstr, or win_wchnstr is
       recommended.


RETURN VALUE

       Upon successful completion,  these  functions  return  OK.
       Otherwise, they return ERR.

       Functions  with a "mv" prefix first perform a cursor move-
       ment using wmove, and return an error if the  position  is
       outside the window, or if the window pointer is null.


PORTABILITY

       The  XSI  Curses defines no error conditions.  This imple-
       mentation checks for null pointers, returning ERR in  that
       case.
