NAME¶
wcsncat - concatenate two wide-character strings
LIBRARY¶
Standard C library (libc, -lc)
SYNOPSIS¶
#include <wchar.h>
wchar_t *wcsncat(wchar_t dest[restrict .n], const wchar_t src[restrict .n], size_t n);
DESCRIPTION¶
The wcsncat() function is the wide-character equivalent of the strncat(3) function. It copies at most n wide characters from the wide-character string pointed to by src to the end of the wide-character string pointed to by dest, and adds a terminating null wide character (L'\0').
The strings may not overlap.
The programmer must ensure that there is room for at least wcslen(dest)+n+1 wide characters at dest.
RETURN VALUE¶
wcsncat() returns dest.
