wmemcpy - Man Page
copy an array of wide-characters
Library
Standard C library (libc, -lc)
Synopsis
#include <wchar.h> wchar_t *wmemcpy(wchar_t dest[restrict .n], const wchar_t src[restrict .n], size_t n);
Description
The wmemcpy() function is the wide-character equivalent of the memcpy(3) function. It copies n wide characters from the array starting at src to the array starting at dest.
The arrays may not overlap; use wmemmove(3) to copy between overlapping arrays.
The programmer must ensure that there is room for at least n wide characters at dest.
Return Value
wmemcpy() returns dest.
