NAME
       wcsftime - convert date and time to wide character string

SYNOPSIS
       #include <wchar.h>

   XPG4 and SUS
       size_t wcsftime(wchar_t *wcs, size_t maxsize, const char *format,
	    const struct tm *timptr);

   Default and other standards
       size_t wcsftime(wchar_t *restrict wcs, size_t maxsize,
	    const wchar_t *restrict format,
	    const struct tm *restrict timptr);

DESCRIPTION
       The  wcsftime()	function  is  equivalent to the strftime(3C) function,
       except that:

	   o	  The argument wcs points to the initial element of  an	 array
		  of  wide-characters into which the generated output is to be
		  placed.

	   o	  The argument maxsize indicates the maximum number  of	 wide-
		  characters to be placed in the output array.

	   o	  The  argument format is a wide-character string and the con‐
		  version  specifications  are	 replaced   by	 corresponding
		  sequences of wide-characters.

	   o	  The  return  value  indicates	 the number of wide-characters
		  placed in the output array.

       If copying takes place between objects that overlap,  the  behavior  is
       undefined.

RETURN VALUES
       If  the	total number of resulting wide character  codes (including the
       terminating null wide-character code) is no more	 than  maxsize,	 wcsf‐
       time()  returns	the  number  of	 wide-character codes  placed into the
       array pointed to by wcs, not including the terminating null  wide-char‐
       acter  code. Otherwise, 0 is returned and the contents of the array are
       indeterminate.

       The wcfstime() function uses malloc(3C) and should malloc() fail, errno
       will be set by malloc().

ATTRIBUTES

NOTES
       The  wcsftime()	function  can be used safely in multithreaded applica‐
       tions, as long as setlocale(3C) is  not	being  called  to  change  the
       locale.
