FPUTWS(3) Linux Programmer's Manual FPUTWS(3)
NAME
fputws - write a wide-character string to a FILE stream
SYNOPSIS
#include <wchar.h>
int fputws(const wchar_t *ws, FILE *stream);
DESCRIPTION
The fputws() function is the wide-character equivalent of the fputs(3)
function. It writes the wide-character string starting at ws, up to
but not including the terminating null wide character (L'\0'), to
stream.
For a nonlocking counterpart, see unlocked_stdio(3).
RETURN VALUE
The fputws() function returns a nonnegative integer if the operation
was successful, or -1 to indicate an error.
ATTRIBUTES
For an explanation of the terms used in this section, see at-
tributes(7).

NOTES
The behavior of fputws() depends on the LC_CTYPE category of the cur-
rent locale.
In the absence of additional information passed to the fopen(3) call,
it is reasonable to expect that fputws() will actually write the multi-
byte string corresponding to the wide-character string ws.
