|

|
|
+The function could not allocate memory during processing. Long argument

+allocation, as does initialization of an output stream upon first use.

+@item EILSEQ
|

|
|
+POSIX specifies this error code should be used if a wide character is
|
||
|
|
+encountered that does not have a matching valid character. @Theglibc{}
|
||
|
|
+always performs transliteration, using a replacement character if
|
||
|
|
+necessary, so this error condition cannot occur on output. However,
|
||
|
|
+@theglibc{} uses @code{EILSEQ} to indicate that an input character
|
||
|
|
+sequence (wide or multi-byte) could not be converted successfully.
