<h3 class="section">6.17 <code>wcsncat</code>&mdash;concatenate part of two wide-character strings</h3>
<p><strong>Synopsis</strong>
<pre class="example"> #include &lt;wchar.h&gt;
wchar_t *wcsncat(wchar_t *<var>s1</var>, const wchar_t *<var>s2</var>, size_t <var>n</var>);
</pre>
<p><strong>Description</strong><br>
The <code>wcsncat</code> function appends not more than <var>n</var> wide-character
codes (a null wide-character code and wide-character codes that follow
it are not appended) from the array pointed to by <var>s2</var> to the end of
the wide-character string pointed to by <var>s1</var>. The initial
wide-character code of <var>s2</var> overwrites the null wide-character code
at the end of <var>s1</var>.
A terminating null wide-character code is always appended to the result.
If copying takes place between objects that overlap, the behaviour is
undefined.
<p><br>
<strong>Returns</strong><br>
The <code>wcsncat</code> function returns <var>s1</var>; no return value is reserved to
indicate an error.
<p><br>
<strong>Portability</strong><br>
<code>wcsncat</code> is ISO/IEC 9899/AMD1:1995 (ISO C).
<p>No supporting OS subroutines are required.
