NAME

       memccpy - copy bytes in memory

SYNOPSIS

       #include <string.h>

       void *memccpy(void *restrict s1, const void *restrict s2,
              int c, size_t n);

DESCRIPTION

       The  memccpy()  function  shall copy bytes from memory area s2 into s1, stopping after the
       first occurrence of byte c (converted to an unsigned char) is copied, or after n bytes are
       copied,  whichever  comes  first. If copying takes place between objects that overlap, the
       behavior is undefined.

RETURN VALUE

       The memccpy() function shall return a pointer to the byte after the copy of c in s1, or  a
       null pointer if c was not found in the first n bytes of s2.

ERRORS

       No errors are defined.

APPLICATION USAGE

       The memccpy() function does not check for the overflow of the receiving memory area.

RATIONALE

       None.

FUTURE DIRECTIONS
