NAME

12       wmemset - set wide characters in memory
13

SYNOPSIS

15       #include <wchar.h>
16
17       wchar_t *wmemset(wchar_t *ws, wchar_t wc, size_t n);
18
19

DESCRIPTION

21       The wmemset() function shall copy the value of  wc  into  each  of  the
22       first  n  wide characters of the object pointed to by ws. This function
23       shall not be affected by locale and all wchar_t values shall be treated
24       identically.   The  null  wide  character and wchar_t values not corre‐
25       sponding to valid characters shall not be treated specially.
26
27       If n is zero, the application shall ensure that ws is a valid  pointer,
28       and the function shall copy zero wide characters.
29

RETURN VALUE

31       The wmemset() functions shall return the value of ws.
