strxfrm - string transformation
Standard C library (libc, -lc)
#include <string.h>
size_t strxfrm(size_t size;
char dest[restrict size], const char src[restrict size],
size_t size);
The strxfrm() function transforms the src
string into a form such that the result of strcmp(3) on
two strings that have been transformed with strxfrm()
is the same as the result of strcoll(3) on the two
strings before their transformation. The first size bytes of
the transformed string are placed in dest. The transformation
is based on the program's current locale for category
LC_COLLATE. (See setlocale(3)).
The strxfrm() function returns the number of bytes
required to store the transformed string in dest excluding the
terminating null byte ('\0'). If the value returned is size or
more, the contents of dest are indeterminate.
For an explanation of the terms used in this section, see attributes(7).
