STRCOLL(3) FreeBSD Library Functions Manual STRCOLL(3)
NAME
strcoll - compare strings according to current collation
LIBRARY
Standard C Library (libc, -lc)
SYNOPSIS
#include <string.h>
int
strcoll(const char *s1, const char *s2);
int
strcoll_l(const char *s1, const char *s2, locale_t loc);
DESCRIPTION
The strcoll() function lexicographically compares the null-terminated
strings s1 and s2 according to the current locale collation and returns
an integer greater than, equal to, or less than 0, depending on whether
s1 is greater than, equal to, or less than s2. If information about the
current locale collation is not available, the value of strcmp(s1, s2) is
returned. The strcoll_l() function uses an explicit locale argument
rather than the system locale.

STANDARDS
The strcoll() function conforms to ISO/IEC 9899:1990 ("ISO C90"). The
