Function Macro

GLibascii_isalpha

Declaration

#define g_ascii_isalpha (
  c
)

Description

Determines whether a character is alphabetic (i.e. a letter).

Unlike the standard C library isalpha() function, this only recognizes standard ASCII letters and ignores the locale, returning false for all non-ASCII characters. Also, unlike the standard library function, this takes a char, not an int, so don’t call it on EOF, but no need to cast to guchar before passing a possibly non-ASCII character in.

This function is not directly available to language bindings.

Parameters

c

Type: -

Any character.
