.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Fn wcsxfrm
function transforms a null-terminated wide character string pointed to by
-.Fa src
-according to the current locale collation order
-then copies the transformed string
-into
-.Fa dst .
+.Fa ws2 ,
+according to the current locale's collation order,
+then copies the transformed string into
+.Fa ws1 .
No more than
.Fa n
wide characters are copied into
-.Fa dst ,
-including the terminating null character added.
+.Fa ws1 ,
+including the terminating null character.
If
.Fa n
is set to 0
(it helps to determine an actual size needed
for transformation),
-.Fa dst
+.Fa ws1
is permitted to be a
.Dv NULL
pointer.
is equivalent to comparing
two original strings with
.Fn wcscoll .
+.Pp
+Although the
+.Fn wcsxfrm
+function uses the current locale, the
+.Fn wcsxfrm_l
+function may be passed a locale directly. See
+.Xr xlocale 3
+for more information.
.Sh RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion,
.Fn wcsxfrm
If this value is
.Fa n
or more, the contents of
-.Fa dst
+.Fa ws1
are indeterminate.

.Sh STANDARDS
The
.Fn wcsxfrm
.Fn wcscoll ;
.Fn wcsxfrm
only stores information about primary collation weights into
-.Fa dst ,
+.Fa ws1 ,
whereas
.Fn wcscoll
compares characters using both primary and secondary weights.
