Name

strxfrm function — Transforms a string for collation

Synopsis

size_t strxfrm(char* dst, const char* src, size_t n)

The strxfrm function transforms the src string by converting each character to its collation order equivalent. The equivalent is copied into dst. Thus, after transforming two different strings with strxfrm, the transformed strings can be compared by calling strcmp to obtain the same result as calling strcoll on the original strings.

No more than n bytes are stored in dst, including the trailing null character. If n is 0, dst can be null.

The return value is the number of transformed characters written to dst.
