Interface Libraries                                    libw(3LIB)



NAME
     libw - wide character library

SYNOPSIS
     cc [ flag... ] file...  [ library... ]
     #include 


DESCRIPTION
     Historically, functions in this library provided wide  char-
     acter   translations.  This  functionality  now  resides  in
     libc(3LIB).


     This library is maintained to provide backward compatibility
     for  both  runtime  and compilation environments. The shared
     object is implemented as a filter on libc.so.1. New applica-
     tion development need not specify -lw.

INTERFACES
     The shared object libw.so.1 provides the  public  interfaces
     defined  below.  See  Intro(3) for additional information on
     shared object interfaces.
