wcscpy - copy wide character string

&pagelevel(4)&pagelevel

Syntax

#include <wchar.h>

wchar_t *wcscpy(wchar_t *ws1, const wchar_t *ws2);


wcscpy() copies the wide character string ws2, including the terminating null wide
character code (\0), into the memory area pointed to by ws1. The space pointed to by ws1
must be large enough to accommodate the wide character string ws2 as well as the
terminating null wide character code (\0).

Return val.

Pointer to the resulting wide character string ws1.

Notes

Wide character strings terminated with the null wide character code (\0) are expected as
arguments.
wcscpy() does not verify whether ws1 is large enough to accommodate the result.
The behavior is undefined if memory areas overlap.

Restriction
This version of the C runtime system only supports 1-byte characters as wide character
codes. They are of type wchar_t (see stddef.h). (End)
