NAME

       memccpy - copy memory area

LIBRARY

       Standard C library (libc, -lc)

SYNOPSIS

       #include <string.h>

       void *memccpy(void dest[restrict .n], const void src[restrict .n],
                     int c, size_t n);

DESCRIPTION

       The  memccpy()  function  copies  no more than n bytes from memory area src to memory area dest, stopping
       when the character c is found.

       If the memory areas overlap, the results are undefined.

RETURN VALUE

       The memccpy() function returns a pointer to the next character in dest after c, or  NULL  if  c  was  not
       found in the first n characters of src.
