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 works on all platforms. +.SH RETURN VALUE +A pointer to a zero terminated string. +.SH "SEE ALSO" +.BR strcmp "(3), " strcasecmp "(3)" |
