Character Manipulation Function

int fgetc(FILE *stream);

wint_t fgetwc(FILE *stream);

_TINT _fgettc(FILE *stream);

Internationalization (I18n) Function Overview

The fgetc function returns the character read from stream as an int, or it returns EOF to indicate an error or end of file.

fgetwc is the wide-character version of fgetc, returning a wide-character wint_t, or WEOF in the event of an error or end of file.

_fgettc is the Windows-only Generic version of the function; with the _MBCS or _UNICODE compiler flags determining its mapping to either fgetc or fgetwc.

I18n Issues

Use the appropriate version of the function as required for internationalization support.

See Character I/O for a discussion on non-ASCII character input/output in an internationalized application.
