wmemcpy(3)                 Library Functions Manual                 wmemcpy(3)

NAME
       wmemcpy - copy an array of wide-characters

LIBRARY
       Standard C library (libc, -lc)

SYNOPSIS
       #include <wchar.h>

       wchar_t *wmemcpy(wchar_t dest[restrict .n],
                        const wchar_t src[restrict .n],
                        size_t n);

DESCRIPTION
       The  wmemcpy()  function  is  the wide-character equivalent of the mem-
       cpy(3) function.  It copies n wide characters from the  array  starting
       at src to the array starting at dest.

       The arrays may not overlap; use wmemmove(3) to copy between overlapping
       arrays.

       The programmer must ensure that there is room for at least n wide char-
       acters at dest.

RETURN VALUE
       wmemcpy() returns dest.
