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 strn-
       cat(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 wc-
       slen(dest)+n+1 wide characters at dest.

RETURN VALUE
       wcsncat() returns dest.
