Synopsis: [libc] wide character printing using swprintf(dst, n, "%ls", txt) fails depending on LC_CTYPE State-Changed-From-To: open->closed State-Changed-By: ache State-Changed-When: Sat Jul 14 17:48:21 UTC 2007 State-Changed-Why: This code works as supposed by standards. You may see errno comes from swprintf() (exactly - from wcrtomb()) and it is EILSEQ (Illegal byte sequence) It is because "C" locale is 8bit wide so does not contain wide chars outside 0 .. UCHAR_MAX range (and doesn't know how to convert them either), so any attempt to convert them fails with EILSEQ. http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=114578
