24: .SH NAME
25: curl_strequal, curl_strnequal - case insensitive string comparisons
26: .SH SYNOPSIS
27: .B #include <curl/curl.h>
28: .sp
29: .BI "int curl_strequal(char *" str1 ", char *" str2 ");"
30: .sp
31: .BI "int curl_strnequal(char *" str1 ", char *" str2 ", size_t " len ");"
32: .SH DESCRIPTION
33: The
34: .B curl_strequal()
35: function compares the two strings \fIstr1\fP and \fIstr2\fP, ignoring the case
36: of the characters. It returns a non-zero (TRUE) integer if the strings are
37: identical.
38: .sp
39: The \fBcurl_strnequal()\fP function is similar, except it only compares the
40: first \fIlen\fP characters of \fIstr1\fP.
41: .sp
42: These functions are provided by libcurl to enable applications to compare
43: strings in a truly portable manner. There are no standard portable case
44: insensitive string comparison functions. These two work on all platforms.
45: .SH AVAILABILITY
46: These functions will be removed from the public libcurl API in a near
47: future. They will instead be made "available" by source code access only, and
48: then as curlx_strequal() and curlx_strenqual().
49: .SH RETURN VALUE
50: Non-zero if the strings are identical. Zero if they're not.
51: .SH "SEE ALSO"
52: .BR strcmp "(3), " strcasecmp "(3)"
