STRCOLL(3)		 BSD 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 argument
     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").
