Defined in header <locale>
|
||
template< class charT > charT tolower( charT ch, const locale& loc ); |
||
Converts the character ch
to lowercase if possible, using the conversion rules specified by the given locale's std::ctype facet.
Contents |
Parameters
ch | - | character |
loc | - | locale |
Return value
Returns the lowercase form of ch
if one is listed in the locale, otherwise return ch
unchanged.
Notes
Only 1:1 character mapping can be performed by this function, e.g. the Greek uppercase letter 'Σ' has two lowercase forms, depending on the position in a word: 'σ' and 'ς'. A call to std::tolower cannot be used to obtain the correct lowercase form in this case.
Possible implementation
template< class charT > charT tolower( charT ch, const std::locale& loc ) { return std::use_facet<std::ctype<charT>>(loc).tolower(ch); } |
