Standard C Library Functions                          wsscanf(3C)



NAME
     wsscanf - formatted input conversion

SYNOPSIS
     #include
     #include 

     int wsscanf(wchart *s, const char *format, /* pointer */ ... );


DESCRIPTION
     The wsscanf() function reads Process  Code  characters  from
     the  Process Code string s, interprets them according to the
     format,  and  stores  the  results  in  its  arguments.   It
     expects, as arguments, a control string format, and a set of
     pointer  arguments  indicating  where  the  converted  input
     should  be  stored.  The  results are undefined if there are
     insufficient  args  for  the  format.   If  the  format   is
     exhausted  while  args  remain,  the  excess args are simply
     ignored.


     The conversion specifications and behavior of wsscanf()  are
     the  same as the regular sscanf(3C) function except that the
     source is  a  Process  Code  string  for  wsscanf()  and  on
     Extended Unix Code (EUC) character string for sscanf(3C).

RETURN VALUES
     Upon successful completion, wsscanf() returns the number  of
     characters matched. Otherwise, it returns a negative value.
