</PRE>
<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2><PRE>
The <STRONG>getcchar</STRONG> function gets a wide-character string and
rendition from a <STRONG>cchar_t</STRONG> argument. When <EM>wch</EM> is not a null
pointer, the <STRONG>getcchar</STRONG> function does the following:
<STRONG>o</STRONG> Extracts information from a <STRONG>cchar_t</STRONG> value <EM>wcval</EM>
<STRONG>o</STRONG> Stores the character attributes in the location
pointed to by <EM>attrs</EM>
<STRONG>o</STRONG> Stores the color-pair in the location pointed to by
<EM>color</EM><STRONG>_</STRONG><EM>pair</EM>
<STRONG>o</STRONG> Stores the wide-character string, characters refer-
enced by <EM>wcval</EM>, into the array pointed to by <EM>wch</EM>.
When <EM>wch</EM> is a null pointer, the <STRONG>getcchar</STRONG> function does the
following:
<STRONG>o</STRONG> Obtains the number of wide characters pointed to by
<EM>wcval</EM>
<STRONG>o</STRONG> Does not change the data referenced by <EM>attrs</EM> or
<EM>color</EM><STRONG>_</STRONG><EM>pair</EM>
The <STRONG>setcchar</STRONG> function initializes the location pointed to
by <EM>wcval</EM> by using:
<STRONG>o</STRONG> The character attributes in <EM>attrs</EM>
<STRONG>o</STRONG> The color pair in <EM>color</EM><STRONG>_</STRONG><EM>pair</EM>
<STRONG>o</STRONG> The wide-character string pointed to by <EM>wch</EM>. The
string must be L'\0' terminated, contain at most one
spacing character, which must be the first.
Up to <STRONG>CCHARW_MAX</STRONG>-1 nonspacing characters may follow.
Additional nonspacing characters are ignored.
The string may contain a single control character
instead. In that case, no nonspacing characters are
allowed.
</PRE>
<H2>NOTES</H2><PRE>
The <EM>opts</EM> argument is reserved for future use. Currently,
an application must provide a null pointer as <EM>opts</EM>.
The <EM>wcval</EM> argument may be a value generated by a call to
<STRONG>setcchar</STRONG> or by a function that has a <STRONG>cchar_t</STRONG> output argu-
ment. If <EM>wcval</EM> is constructed by any other means, the
effect is unspecified.
</PRE>
<H2>RETURN VALUE</H2><PRE>
When <EM>wch</EM> is a null pointer, <STRONG>getcchar</STRONG> returns the number of
wide characters referenced by <EM>wcval</EM>, including one for a
trailing null.
When <EM>wch</EM> is not a null pointer, <STRONG>getcchar</STRONG> returns <STRONG>OK</STRONG> upon
successful completion, and <STRONG>ERR</STRONG> otherwise.
Upon successful completion, <STRONG>setcchar</STRONG> returns <STRONG>OK</STRONG>. Other-
wise, it returns <STRONG>ERR</STRONG>.
