This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.
The Linux implementation of this interface may differ (consult
the corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior),
or the interface may not be implemented on Linux.
.SH NAME
wcsncat \- concatenate a wide-character string with part of another
.SH SYNOPSIS
.LP
\fB#include <wchar.h>
.br
.sp
wchar_t *wcsncat(wchar_t *restrict\fP \fIws1\fP\fB, const wchar_t
*restrict\fP \fIws2\fP\fB,
.br
\ \ \ \ \ \  size_t\fP \fIn\fP\fB);

.SH DESCRIPTION
.LP
The \fIwcsncat\fP() function shall append not more than \fIn\fP wide-character
codes (a null wide-character code and
wide-character codes that follow it are not appended) from the array
pointed to by \fIws2\fP to the end of the wide-character
string pointed to by \fIws1\fP. The initial wide-character code of
\fIws2\fP shall overwrite the null wide-character code at the
end of \fIws1\fP. A terminating null wide-character code shall always
be appended to the result. If copying takes place between
objects that overlap, the behavior is undefined.
.SH RETURN VALUE
.LP
The \fIwcsncat\fP() function shall return \fIws1\fP; no return value
is reserved to indicate an error.
.SH ERRORS
.LP
No errors are defined.
