STRCOLL(3)		    Library Functions Manual		    STRCOLL(3)

NAME
       strcoll -- compare strings according to current collation

LIBRARY
       Standard	C Library (libc, -lc)

SYNOPSIS
       #include	<string.h>

       int
       strcoll(const char *s1, const char *s2);

       int
       strcoll_l(const char *s1, const char *s2, locale_t loc);

DESCRIPTION
       The  strcoll()  function	lexicographically compares the null-terminated
       strings s1 and s2 according to the current locale collation and returns
       an integer greater than,	equal to, or less than 0, depending on whether
       s1 is greater than, equal to, or	less than s2.	If  information	 about
       the  current locale collation is	not available, the value of strcmp(s1,
       s2) is returned.	 The strcoll_l() function uses an explicit locale  ar-
       gument rather than the system locale.

SEE ALSO
       setlocale(3), strcmp(3),	strxfrm(3), wcscoll(3)

STANDARDS
       The  strcoll() function conforms	to ISO/IEC 9899:1990 ("ISO C90").  The
       strcoll_l() function conforms to	IEEE Std 1003.1-2008 ("POSIX.1").

FreeBSD	15.0			 June 4, 1993			    STRCOLL(3)
