### 6.9 `wcscoll`—locale-specific wide-character string compare

Synopsis

         #include <wchar.h>
         int wcscoll(const wchar_t *stra, const wchar_t * strb);

Description
`wcscoll` compares the wide-character string pointed to by stra to the wide-character string pointed to by strb, using an interpretation appropriate to the current `LC_COLLATE` state.

The current implementation of `wcscoll` simply uses `wcscmp` and does not support any language-specific sorting.

Returns
If the first string is greater than the second string, `wcscoll` returns a number greater than zero. If the two strings are equivalent, `wcscoll` returns zero. If the first string is less than the second string, `wcscoll` returns a number less than zero.

Portability
`wcscoll` is ISO/IEC 9899/AMD1:1995 (ISO C).
