std::iswspace

Defined in header <cwctype> 
int iswspace( wint_t ch );

Checks if the given wide character is a wide whitespace character as classified by the currently installed C locale. In the default locale, the whitespace characters are the following:

  • space (0x20, ' ')
  • form feed (0x0c, '\f')
  • line feed (0x0a, '\n')
  • carriage return (0x0d, '\r')
  • horizontal tab (0x09, '\t')
  • vertical tab (0x0b, '\v')

Parameters

ch - wide character

Return value

Non-zero value if the wide character is a whitespace character, zero otherwise.

Example

Demonstrates the use of iswspace() with different locales.

#include <iostream>
#include <clocale>
#include <cwctype>
void try_with(wchar_t c, const char* loc)
{
    std::setlocale(LC_ALL, loc);
    std::wcout << "isspace('" << c << "') in " << loc << " locale returned "
               << std::boolalpha << (bool)std::iswspace(c) << '\n';
}
int main()
{
    wchar_t EM_SPACE = L'\u2003'; // Unicode character 'EM SPACE'
    try_with(EM_SPACE, "C");
    try_with(EM_SPACE, "en_US.UTF8");
}

Output:

isspace(' ') in C locale returned false
isspace(' ') in en_US.UTF8 locale returned true
