std::iswblank

From cppreference.com
< cpp‎ | string‎ | wide
Defined in header <cwctype>
int iswblank( std::wint_t ch );
(since C++11)

Checks if the given wide character is classified as blank character (that is, a whitespace character used to separate words in a sentence) by the current C locale. In the default C locale, only space (0x20) and horizontal tab (0x09) are blank characters.

[edit] Parameters

ch - wide character

[edit] Return value

Non-zero value if the wide character is a blank character, zero otherwise.

[edit] Example

#include <iostream>
#include <cwctype>
#include <clocale>
 
int main()
{
    wchar_t c = L'\u3000'; // Ideographic space (' ')
 
    std::cout << std::hex << std::showbase << std::boolalpha;
    std::cout << "in the default locale, iswblank(" << (std::wint_t)c << ") = "
              << (bool)std::iswblank(c) << '\n';
    std::setlocale(LC_ALL, "en_US.utf8");
    std::cout << "in Unicode locale, iswblank(" << (std::wint_t)c << ") = "
              << (bool)std::iswblank(c) << '\n';
}

Output:

in the default locale, iswblank(0x3000) = false
in Unicode locale, iswblank(0x3000) = true
