It returns a non-zero (TRUE) integer if the strings are +identical. +.sp +The \fBcurl_strnequal()\fP function is similar, except it only compares the +first \fIlen\fP characters of \fIstr1\fP. +.sp +These functions are provided by libcurl to enable applications to compare +strings in a truly portable manner. There are no standard portable case +insensitive string comparison functions. These two work on all platforms. +.SH AVAILABILITY +These functions will be removed from the public libcurl API in a near +future. They will instead be made "available" by source code access only, and +then as curlx_strequal() and curlx_strenqual(). +.SH RETURN VALUE +Non-zero if the strings are identical. Zero if they're not. +.SH "SEE ALSO" +.BR strcmp "(3), " strcasecmp "(3)" |
