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.
