PUTWC(3)                                BSD Library Functions Manual                                PUTWC(3)

NAME
     fputwc, putwc, putwchar -- output a wide character to a stream

LIBRARY
     Standard C Library (libc, -lc)

SYNOPSIS
     #include <stdio.h>
     #include <wchar.h>

     wint_t
     fputwc(wchar_t wc, FILE *stream);

     wint_t
     putwc(wchar_t wc, FILE *stream);

     wint_t
     putwchar(wchar_t wc);

DESCRIPTION
     The fputwc() function writes the wide character wc to the output stream pointed to by stream.

     The putwc() function acts essentially identically to fputwc().

     The putwchar() function is identical to putwc() with an output stream of stdout.

     Extended locale versions of these functions are documented in putwc_l(3).  See xlocale(3) for more
     information.

RETURN VALUES
     The fputwc(), putwc(), and putwchar() functions return the wide character written.  If an error occurs,
     the value WEOF is returned.

SEE ALSO
     ferror(3), fopen(3), getwc(3), putc(3), putwc_l(3), stdio(3)

STANDARDS
     The fputwc(), putwc(), and putwchar() functions conform to ISO/IEC 9899:1999 (``ISO C99'').
