The latest version of this topic can be found at wctomb, _wctomb_l.

Convert a wide character to the corresponding multibyte character. More secure versions of these functions are available; see wctomb_s, _wctomb_s_l.

Syntax

int wctomb(  
   char *mbchar,  
   wchar_t wchar   
);  
int _wctomb_l(  
   char *mbchar,  
   wchar_t wchar,  
   _locale_t locale  
);

Parameters

mbchar
The address of a multibyte character.

wchar
A wide character.

Return Value

If wctomb converts the wide character to a multibyte character, it returns the number of bytes (which is never greater than MB_CUR_MAX) in the wide character. If wchar is the wide-character null character (L'\0'), wctomb returns 1. If the target pointer mbchar is NULL, wctomb returns 0. If the conversion is not possible in the current locale, wctomb returns –1 and errno is set to EILSEQ.

Remarks

The wctomb function converts its wchar argument to the corresponding multibyte character and stores the result at mbchar. You can call the function from any point in any program. wctomb uses the current locale for any locale-dependent behavior; _wctomb_l is identical to wctomb except that it uses the locale passed in instead. For more information, see Locale.

wctomb validates its parameters. If mbchar is NULL, the invalid parameter handler is invoked, as described in Parameter Validation. If execution is allowed to continue, errno is set to EINVAL and the function returns -1.

Requirements

Routine	Required header
`wctomb`	<stdlib.h>

Example

This program illustrates the behavior of the wctomb function.

// crt_wctomb.cpp  
// compile with: /W3  
#include <stdio.h>  
#include <stdlib.h>  
  
int main( void )  
{  
   int i;  
   wchar_t wc = L'a';  
   char *pmb = (char *)malloc( MB_CUR_MAX );  
  
   printf( "Convert a wide character:\n" );  
   i = wctomb( pmb, wc ); // C4996  
   // Note: wctomb is deprecated; consider using wctomb_s  
   printf( "   Characters converted: %u\n", i );  
   printf( "   Multibyte character: %.1s\n\n", pmb );  
}
