DESCRIPTION

22       The wcpcpy() function is the wide-character equivalent of the stpcpy(3)
23       function.  It copies the wide-character string pointed to by  src,  in‐
24       cluding  the  terminating  null  wide  character  (L'\0'), to the array
25       pointed to by dest.
26
27       The strings may not overlap.
28
29       The programmer must  ensure  that  there  is  room  for  at  least  wc‐
30       slen(src)+1 wide characters at dest.
31

RETURN VALUE

33       wcpcpy()  returns  a  pointer  to  the end of the wide-character string
34       dest, that is, a pointer to the terminating null wide character.
