.Dt UNGETWC 3
.Os
.Sh NAME
.Nm ungetwc
.Nd un-get wide-character from input stream
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.In stdio.h
.In wchar.h
.Ft wint_t
.Fn ungetwc "wint_t wc" "FILE *stream"
.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Fn ungetwc
function pushes the wide-character
.Fa wc
(converted to an wchar_t)
back onto the input stream pointed to by
.Fa stream .
The pushed-backed wide-characters will be returned by subsequent reads on the
stream (in reverse order).
A successful intervening call, using the same stream, to one of the file
positioning functions
.Xr fseek 3 ,
.Xr fsetpos 3 ,
or
.Xr rewind 3
will discard the pushed back wide-characters.
.Pp
One wide-character of push-back is guaranteed,
but as long as there is
sufficient memory, an effectively infinite amount of pushback is allowed.
.Pp
If a character is successfully pushed back,
the end-of-file indicator for the stream is cleared.
.Sh RETURN VALUES
The
.Fn ungetwc
function
returns
the wide-character pushed back after the conversion, or
.Dv WEOF
if the operation fails.
If the value of the argument
.Fa c
character equals
.Dv WEOF ,
the operation will fail and the stream will remain unchanged.
.Sh SEE ALSO
.Xr fseek 3 ,
.Xr getwc 3
.Sh STANDARDS
The
.Fn ungetwc
function conforms to
.St -isoC-99 .
.Sh BUGS
The current implementation uses a fixed sized ungetwc-buffer.
