WCPCPY(3)                  Linux Programmer's Manual                 WCPCPY(3)

NAME
       wcpcpy - copy a wide-character string, returning a pointer to its end

SYNOPSIS
       #include <wchar.h>

       wchar_t *wcpcpy(wchar_t *dest, const wchar_t *src);

   Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see feature_test_macros(7)):

       wcpcpy():
           Since glibc 2.10:
               _POSIX_C_SOURCE >= 200809L
           Before glibc 2.10:
               _GNU_SOURCE

DESCRIPTION
       The wcpcpy() function is the wide-character equivalent of the stpcpy(3)
       function.  It copies the wide-character string pointed to by  src,  in-
       cluding  the  terminating  null  wide  character  (L'\0'), to the array
       pointed to by dest.

       The strings may not overlap.

       The programmer must  ensure  that  there  is  room  for  at  least  wc-
       slen(src)+1 wide characters at dest.

RETURN VALUE
       wcpcpy()  returns  a  pointer  to  the end of the wide-character string
       dest, that is, a pointer to the terminating null wide character.
