ISO C provides no mean to find out how many bytes the wide character representation really uses. But it defines MB_CUR_LEN to return the information for the multi-byte character representation. Many programmers don't know the difference between the two and thing this means the same. But assuming all characters have a size of MB_CUR_LEN after they have been processed by `mbrtowc' is wrong. Instead the maximal number of character used for the conversion is MB_CURLEN. It is known that some Motif applications have this problem. To cure this one has to make sure the glibc uses the function in this file instead of the one in locale/mb_cur_max.c. This can either be done by linking with this file or by using the LD_PRELOAD feature of the dynamic linker. */ int __ctype_get_mb_cur_max (void) { int correct_value = _NL_CURRENT_WORD (LC_CTYPE, _NL_CTYPE_MB_CUR_MAX); return ((int []) { 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 4 })[correct_value]; }
