NAME
wcsncpy - copy a fixed-size string of wide characters
SYNOPSIS
#include <wchar.h>
I wchar_t *wcsncpy(wchar_t * dest , const wchar_t * src , size_t n );
DESCRIPTION
The
R wcsncpy ()
function is the wide-character equivalent of the
strncpy(3)
function.
It copies at most
n wide characters from the wide-character
string pointed to by
src, including the terminating L'\0' character,
to the array pointed to by
dest.
Exactly
n wide characters are
written at
dest.
If the length
wcslen(src) is smaller than
n,
the remaining wide characters in the array
pointed to by
dest are filled
with L'\0' characters.
If the length
wcslen(src) is greater or equal
to
n, the string pointed to by
dest
will not be L'\0' terminated.
The strings may not overlap.
The programmer must ensure that there is room for at least n wide
characters at dest.
RETURN VALUE
R wcsncpy ()
returns dest.

C99.
