.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Fn mbsrtowcs
function converts a sequence of multibyte characters pointed to indirectly by
.Fa src
into a sequence of corresponding wide characters and stores at most
.Fa len
of them in the
.Vt wchar_t
array pointed to by
.Fa dst ,
until it encounters a terminating null character
.Pq Li '\e0' .
.Pp
If
.Fa dst
is
.Dv NULL ,
no characters are stored.
.Pp
If
.Fa dst
is not
.Dv NULL ,
the pointer pointed to by
.Fa src
is updated to point to the character after the one that conversion stopped at.
If conversion stops because a null character is encountered,
.Fa *src
is set to
.Dv NULL .
.Pp
The
.Vt mbstate_t
argument,
.Fa ps ,
is used to keep track of the shift state.
If it is
.Dv NULL ,
.Fn mbsrtowcs
uses an internal, static
.Vt mbstate_t
object, which is initialized to the initial conversion state
at program startup.
.Pp
The
.Fn mbsnrtowcs
function behaves identically to
.Fn mbsrtowcs ,
except that conversion stops after reading at most
.Fa nms
bytes from the buffer pointed to by
.Fa src .
.Sh RETURN VALUES
The
.Fn mbsrtowcs
and
.Fn mbsnrtowcs
functions return the number of wide characters stored in
the array pointed to by
.Fa dst
if successful, otherwise it returns
.Po Vt size_t Pc Ns \-1 .
.Sh ERRORS
The
.Fn mbsrtowcs
and
.Fn mbsnrtowcs
functions will fail if:
.Bl -tag -width Er
.It Bq Er EILSEQ
An invalid multibyte character sequence was encountered.
.It Bq Er EINVAL
The conversion state is invalid.

.Sh STANDARDS
The
.Fn mbsrtowcs
function conforms to
.St -isoC-99 .
.Pp
The
.Fn mbsnrtowcs
function is an extension to the standard.
