OCIWideCharIsAlnum()

Purpose

Tests whether a wide character is a letter or decimal digit.

Syntax

boolean OCIWideCharIsAlnum ( dvoid      *hndl,
                             OCIWchar   wc );

Parameters

hndl (IN/OUT)

OCI environment or user session handle to determine the character set.

wc (IN)

wchar for testing.

Returns

TRUE or FALSE.


OCIWideCharIsAlpha()

Purpose

Tests whether a wide character is an alphabetic letter.

Syntax

boolean OCIWideCharIsAlpha ( dvoid     *hndl, 
                             OCIWchar  wc );

Parameters

hndl (IN/OUT)

OCI environment or user session handle to determine the character set.

wc (IN)

wchar for testing.

Returns

TRUE or FALSE.


OCIWideCharIsCntrl()

Purpose

Tests whether a wide character is a control character.

Syntax

boolean OCIWideCharIsCntrl ( dvoid       *hndl, 
                             OCIWchar    wc );

Parameters

hndl (IN/OUT)

OCI environment or user session handle to determine the character set.

wc (IN)

wchar for testing.

Returns

TRUE or FALSE.


OCIWideCharIsDigit()

Purpose

Tests whether a wide character is a decimal digit character.

Syntax

boolean OCIWideCharIsDigit ( dvoid      *hndl, 
                             OCIWchar   wc );

Parameters

hndl (IN/OUT)

OCI environment or user session handle to determine the character set.

wc (IN)

wchar for testing.

Returns

TRUE or FALSE.


OCIWideCharIsGraph()

Purpose

Tests whether a wide character is a graph character. A graph character is a character with a visible representation and normally includes alphabetic letters, decimal digits, and punctuation.

Syntax

boolean OCIWideCharIsGraph ( dvoid     *hndl, 
                           OCIWchar    wc );

Parameters

hndl (IN/OUT)

OCI environment or user session handle to determine the character set.

wc (IN)

wchar for testing.

Returns

TRUE or FALSE.


OCIWideCharIsLower()

Purpose

Tests whether a wide character is a lowercase letter.

Syntax

boolean OCIWideCharIsLower ( dvoid      *hndl, 
                             OCIWchar    wc );

Parameters

hndl (IN/OUT)

OCI environment or user session handle to determine the character set.

wc (IN)

wchar for testing.

Returns

TRUE or FALSE.


OCIWideCharIsPrint()

Purpose

Tests whether a wide character is a printable character.

Syntax

boolean OCIWideCharIsPrint ( dvoid     *hndl, 
                             OCIWchar  wc );

Parameters

hndl (IN/OUT)

OCI environment or user session handle to determine the character set.

wc (IN)

wchar for testing.

Returns

TRUE or FALSE.


OCIWideCharIsPunct()

Purpose

Tests whether a wide character is a punctuation character.

Syntax

boolean OCIWideCharIsPunct ( dvoid      *hndl, 
                             OCIWchar   wc );

Parameters

hndl (IN/OUT)

OCI environment or user session handle to determine the character set.

wc (IN)

wchar for testing.

Returns

TRUE or FALSE.


OCIWideCharIsSingleByte()

Purpose

Tests whether a wide character is a single-byte character when converted into multibyte.

Syntax

boolean OCIWideCharIsSingleByte ( dvoid     *hndl, 
                                  OCIWchar  wc );

Parameters

hndl (IN/OUT)

OCI environment or user session handle to determine the character set.
