<h3>NAME
</h3>       mblen - determine the number of bytes in a character

<h3>SYNOPSIS

<h3>DESCRIPTION

       s and returns the number of bytes  in  a  character.   The
       mblen() function is equivalent to

              mbtowc((wchat_t *)0, s, n);

       except  that  the  shift state of the mbtowc() function is
       not affected.

<h3>RETURN VALUE
</h3>       The mblen() returns the number of bytes in a character  or
       -1 if the character is invalid or 0 if s is a NULL string.

<h3>CONFORMING TO
