fputws - write a wide-character string to a FILE stream

  #include <wchar.h>

  int fputws(const wchar_t *restrict ws, FILE *restrict stream);

The *fputws*() function is the wide-character equivalent of the *fputs*(3) function. It writes the wide-character string starting at ws, up to but not including the terminating null wide character (L’\0’), to stream.

For a nonlocking counterpart, see *unlocked_stdio*(3).

The *fputws*() function returns a nonnegative integer if the operation was successful, or -1 to indicate an error.

For an explanation of the terms used in this section, see *attributes*(7).

POSIX.1-2001, POSIX.1-2008, C99.

The behavior of fputws*() depends on the *LC_CTYPE category of the current locale.

In the absence of additional information passed to the *fopen*(3) call, it is reasonable to expect that *fputws*() will actually write the multibyte string corresponding to the wide-character string ws.
