NAME

6       wcsncat - concatenate two wide-character strings
7

SYNOPSIS

9       #include <wchar.h>
10
11       wchar_t *wcsncat(wchar_t *restrict dest, const wchar_t *restrict src,
12                        size_t n);
13

DESCRIPTION

15       The  wcsncat()  function  is the wide-character equivalent of the strn‐
16       cat(3) function.  It copies at most n wide characters  from  the  wide-
17       character  string  pointed  to  by src to the end of the wide-character
18       string pointed to by dest, and adds a terminating null  wide  character
19       (L'\0').
20
21       The strings may not overlap.
22
23       The  programmer  must  ensure  that  there  is  room  for  at least wc‐
24       slen(dest)+n+1 wide characters at dest.
25

RETURN VALUE

27       wcsncat() returns dest.
