Compares two blocks of wide characters

 #include <wchar.h> int wmemcmp ( const wchar_t * restrict b1 , const wchar_t * restrict b2 ,              size_t n  ); 

The wmemcmp( ) function compares the contents of two memory blocks of n wide characters, beginning at the addresses in b1 and b2, until it finds a pair of wide characters that don't match. The function returns a value greater than 0 if the mismatched wide character (evaluated as unsigned char) is greater in b1, or less than 0 if the first mismatched wide character is greater in b2, or 0 if the two buffers are identical over n wide characters.

Example

 #define BUFFERSIZE 4096 wchar_t  first[BUFFERSIZE] = { L'\0' }; wchar_t second[BUFFERSIZE] = { L'\0' }; /* ... read some data into the two buffers ... */ if ( wmemcmp( first, second, BUFFERSIZE ) == 0 )   printf( "The two buffers contain the same wide-character text.\n" );
