NAME
wcsncat - concatenate two wide-character strings
 
SYNOPSIS
#include <wchar.h>
wchar_t *wcsncat(wchar_t *dest, const wchar_t *src, 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.
