CURSADDWCHSTR(3X-SVR4)SC/os Reference ManualSADDWCHSTR(3X-SVR4)



NAME
     curs_addwchstr:  addwchstr, addwchnstr, waddwchstr,
          waddwchnstr, mvaddwchstr, mvaddwchnstr, mvwaddwchstr,
          mvwaddwchnstr - add string of wchar_t characters (and
          attributes) to a curses window

SYNOPSIS
     #include <curses.h>

     int addwchstr(chtype *wchstr);

     int addwchnstr(chtype *wchstr, int n);
     int waddwchstr(WINDOW *win, chtype *wchstr);

     int waddwchnstr(WINDOW *win, chtype *wchstr, int n);
     int mvaddwchstr(int y, int x, chtype *wchstr);

     int mvaddwchnstr(int y, int x, chtype *wchstr, int n);
     int mvwaddwchstr(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, chtype *wchstr);

     int mvwaddwchnstr(WINDOW *win, int y, int x,
          chtype *wchstr, int n);

DESCRIPTION
     All of these routines copy wchstr which points to the string
     of wchar_t characters directly into the window image struc-
     ture starting at the current cursor position.  The four rou-
     tines with  n as the last argument copy at most n elements,
     but no more than will fit on the line.  If n=-1 then the
     whole string is copied, to the maximum number that fit on
     the line.

     The position of the window cursor is not advanced.  These
     routines works faster than waddnwstr because they merely
     copy wchstr into the window image structure.  On the other
     hand, care must be taken when using these functions because
     they don't perform any kind of checking (such as for the
     newline character), they don't advance the current cursor
     position, and they truncate the string, rather then wrapping
     it around to the new line.

RETURN VALUE
     All routines return the integer ERR upon failure and an
     integer value other than ERR upon successful completion,
     unless otherwise noted in the preceding routine descrip-
     tions.

NOTES
     The header file <curses.h> automatically includes the header
     files <stdio.h> and <unctrl.h>.
