mbrlen

 

The new home for Visual Studio documentation is Visual Studio 2017 Documentation on docs.microsoft.com.

The latest version of this topic can be found at mbrlen.

Determine the number of bytes that are required to complete a multibyte character in the current locale, with the capability of restarting in the middle of a multibyte character.

Syntax

size_t mbrlen(  
   const char * str,  
   size_t count,  
   mbstate_t * mbstate  
);  

Parameters

str
Pointer to the next byte to inspect in a multibyte character string.

count
The maximum number of bytes to inspect.

mbstate
Pointer to the current shift state of the initial byte of str.

Return Value

One of the following values:

0
The next count or fewer bytes complete the multibyte character that represents the wide null character.

1 to count, inclusive
The next count or fewer bytes complete a valid multibyte character. The value returned is the number of bytes that complete the multibyte character.

(size_t)(-2)
The next count bytes contribute to an incomplete but potentially valid multibyte character and all count bytes have been processed.

(size_t)(-1)
An encoding error occurred. The next count or fewer bytes do not contribute to a complete and valid multibyte character. In this case, errno is set to EILSEQ and the conversion state in mbstate is unspecified.

Remarks

The mbrlen function inspects at most count bytes starting with the byte pointed to by str to determine the number of bytes that are required to complete the next multibyte character, including any shift sequences. It is equivalent to the call mbrtowc(NULL, str, count, &mbstate) where mbstate is either a user-provided mbstate_t object, or a static internal object provided by the library.

The mbrlen function saves and uses the shift state of an incomplete multibyte character in the mbstate parameter. This gives mbrlen the capability of restarting in the middle of a multibyte character if need be, examining at most count bytes. If mbstate is a null pointer, mbrlen uses an internal, static mbstate_t object to store the shift state. Because the internal mbstate_t object is not thread-safe, we recommend that you always allocate and pass your own mbstate parameter.

The mbrlen function differs from _mbclen, mblen, _mblen_l by its restartability. The shift state is stored in mbstate for subsequent calls to the same or other restartable functions. Results are undefined when mixing the use of restartable and nonrestartable functions. For example, an application should use wcsrlen instead of wcslen if a subsequent call to wcsrtombs is used instead of wcstombs.
