wcpcpy - copy a wide-character string, returning a pointer to its end
Standard C library (
libc,
-lc)
#include <wchar.h>
wchar_t *wcpcpy(wchar_t *restrict dest, const wchar_t *restrict src);
wcpcpy():
Since glibc 2.10:
_POSIX_C_SOURCE >= 200809L
Before glibc 2.10:
_GNU_SOURCE
The
wcpcpy() function is the wide-character equivalent of the
stpcpy(3) function. It copies the wide-character string pointed to by
src, including the terminating null wide character (L'\0'), to the
array pointed to by
dest.
The strings may not overlap.
The programmer must ensure that there is room for at least
wcslen(src)+1
wide characters at
dest.
wcpcpy() returns a pointer to the end of the wide-character string
dest, that is, a pointer to the terminating null wide character.
