ne_strlower - Man Page

convert string or characters to lower-case

Synopsis

#include <ne_string.h>

const unsigned char *ne_tolower_array(void);
#define ne_tolower(c) (...)

char *ne_strlower(char *str);

Description

The ne_strlower function modifies every character in the str parameter to lower-case equivalent in-place, and returns str.

The ne_tolower macro returns a lower-case equivalent of char c. The ne_tolower_array returns a character mapping table which is an implementation detail of this macro.

All the above operate on ASCII characters, independent of the locale.

Return Value

ne_strlower returns the str parameter.

History

The ne_strlower function is available in neon 0.37.0 and later.
