NAME
       iswctype - wide-character classification

SYNOPSIS
       #include <wctype.h>

       int iswctype(wint_t wc, wctype_t desc);

DESCRIPTION
       If  wc  is a wide character having the character property designated by
       desc (or in other words: belongs to the character class	designated  by
       desc),  the iswctype() function returns nonzero.	 Otherwise, it returns
       zero.  If wc is WEOF, zero is returned.

       desc must be a character property descriptor returned by the  wctype(3)
       function.

RETURN VALUE
       The  iswctype()	function  returns nonzero if the wc has the designated
       property.  Otherwise, it returns 0.

       rent locale.
