NAME

       SDL_wcsncmp - Compare two wide strings up to a number of wchar_t values.

HEADER FILE

       Defined in SDL3/SDL_stdinc.h

SYNOPSIS

       #include "SDL3/SDL.h"

       int SDL_wcsncmp(const wchar_t *str1, const wchar_t *str2, size_t maxlen);

DESCRIPTION

       This  only  compares  wchar_t  values;  it  does not care if the string is well-formed UTF-16 (or UTF-32,
       depending on your platform's wchar_t size), or uses valid Unicode values.

       Note that while this function is intended to be used with UTF-16 (or UTF-32, depending on your platform's
       definition of wchar_t), it is comparing raw wchar_t values and not Unicode codepoints: maxlen specifies a
       wchar_t limit! If the limit lands in the middle of a multi-wchar UTF-16 sequence, it will only compare  a
       portion  of the final character.  maxlen specifies a maximum number of wchar_t to compare; if the strings
       match to this number of wide chars (or both have matched  to  a  null-terminator  character  before  this
       count), they will be considered equal.

FUNCTION PARAMETERS

       str1   the first string to compare. NULL is not permitted!

       str2   the second string to compare. NULL is not permitted!

       maxlen the maximum number of wchar_t to compare.

RETURN VALUE

       Returns less than zero if str1 is "less than" str2, greater than zero if str1 is "greater than" str2, and
       zero if the strings match exactly.

THREAD SAFETY

       It is safe to call this function from any thread.

AVAILABILITY

       This function is available since SDL 3.2.0.
