38 | .Nm strcasecmp , | ||
39 | .Nm strncasecmp | ||
40 | .Nd compare strings, ignoring case | ||
41 | .Sh SYNOPSIS | ||
42 | .Fd #include <string.h> | ||
43 | .Ft int | ||
44 | .Fn strcasecmp "const char *s1" "const char *s2" | ||
45 | .Ft int | ||
46 | .Fn strncasecmp "const char *s1" "const char *s2" "size_t len" | ||
47 | .Sh DESCRIPTION | ||
48 | The | ||
49 | .Fn strcasecmp | ||
50 | and | ||
51 | .Fn strncasecmp | ||
52 | functions compare the null-terminated strings | ||
53 | .Fa s1 | ||
54 | and | ||
55 | .Fa s2 | ||
56 | and return an integer greater than, equal to, or less than 0, | ||
57 | according to whether | ||
58 | .Fa s1 | ||
59 | is lexicographically greater than, equal to, or less than | ||
60 | .Fa s2 | ||
61 | after translation of each corresponding character to lower-case. | ||
62 | The strings themselves are not modified. | ||
63 | The comparison is done using unsigned characters, so that | ||
64 | .Sq Li \e200 | ||
65 | is greater than | ||
66 | .Ql \e0 . | ||
67 | .Pp | ||
68 | .Fn strncasecmp | ||
69 | compares at most | ||
70 | .Fa len | ||
71 | characters. | ||
