wcsncat(3)

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.
