bstring(3)

NAME

   bcmp,  bcopy,  bzero, memccpy, memchr, memcmp, memcpy, memfrob, memmem,
   memmove, memset - byte string operations

SYNOPSIS

   #include <string.h>

   int bcmp(const void *s1, const void *s2, size_t n);

   void bcopy(const void *src, void *dest, size_t n);

   void bzero(void *s, size_t n);

   void *memccpy(void *dest, const void *src, int c, size_t n);

   void *memchr(const void *s, int c, size_t n);

   int memcmp(const void *s1, const void *s2, size_t n);

   void *memcpy(void *dest, const void *src, size_t n);

   void *memfrob(void *s, size_t n);

   void *memmem(const void *needle, size_t needlelen,
                const void *haystack, size_t haystacklen);

   void *memmove(void *dest, const void *src, size_t n);

   void *memset(void *s, int c, size_t n);

DESCRIPTION

   The byte string functions perform operations on strings  (byte  arrays)
   that are not necessarily null-terminated.  See the individual man pages
   for descriptions of each function.

NOTES

   The functions bcmp(), bcopy() and bzero() are obsolete.  Use  memcmp(),
   memcpy() and memset() instead.
