wcsncat(3)                 Library Functions Manual                 wcsncat(3)

NAME
       wcsncat - concatenate two wide-character strings

LIBRARY
       Standard C library (libc, -lc)

SYNOPSIS
       #include <wchar.h>

       wchar_t *wcsncat(wchar_t dest[restrict .n],
                        const wchar_t src[restrict .n],
                        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.
