 **_mbsrchr** validates its parameters. If *str* is **NULL**, the invalid parameter handler is invoked, as described in [Parameter Validation](../../c-runtime-library/parameter-validation.md). If execution is allowed to continue, **errno** is set to **EINVAL** and **_mbsrchr** returns 0. **strrchr** and **wcsrchr** do not validate their parameters. These three functions behave identically otherwise.
