WCSSTR (3)

locate a substring in a wide-character string

SYNOPSIS

    #include <wchar.h>
      wchar_t *wcsstr (const wchar_t * haystack , const wchar_t * needle );  
    

DESCRIPTION

    The wcsstr function is the wide-character equivalent of the strstr function. It searches for the first occurrence of the wide-character string needle (without its terminating L'\\0' character) as a substring in the wide-character string haystack.

RETURN VALUE

    The wcsstr function returns a pointer to the first occurrence of needle in haystack. It returns NULL if needle does not occur as a substring in haystack.

    Note the special case: If needle is the empty wide-character string, the return value is always haystack itself.
