NAME
memmove -- copy byte string LIBRARY
Standard C Library (libc, -lc) SYNOPSIS
#include <string.h> void * memmove(void *dst, const void *src, size_t len); DESCRIPTION
The memmove() function copies len bytes from string src to string dst. The two strings may overlap; the copy is always done in a non- destructive manner. RETURN VALUES
The memmove() function returns the original value of dst. SEE ALSO
bcopy(3), memccpy(3), memcpy(3), strcpy(3), wmemmove(3) STANDARDS
The memmove() function conforms to ISO/IEC 9899:1990 (``ISO C90''). BSD

NAME
bcmp, bcopy, bzero, memccpy, memchr, memcmp, memcpy, memmove, memset -- byte string operations LIBRARY
Standard C Library (libc, -lc) SYNOPSIS
#include <string.h> int bcmp(const void *b1, const void *b2, size_t len); void bcopy(const void *src, void *dst, size_t len); void bzero(void *b, size_t len); void * memchr(const void *b, int c, size_t len); int memcmp(const void *b1, const void *b2, size_t len); void * memccpy(void *dst, const void *src, int c, size_t len); void * memcpy(void *dst, const void *src, size_t len); void * memmove(void *dst, const void *src, size_t len); void * memset(void *b, int c, size_t len); DESCRIPTION
These functions operate on variable length strings of bytes. They do not check for terminating null bytes as the routines listed in string(3) do. See the specific manual pages for more information. SEE ALSO
bcmp(3), bcopy(3), bzero(3), memccpy(3), memchr(3), memcmp(3), memcpy(3), memmove(3), memset(3) STANDARDS
The functions memchr(), memcmp(), memcpy(), memmove(), and memset() conform to ISO/IEC 9899:1990 (``ISO C90''). HISTORY
The functions bzero() and memccpy() appeared in 4.3BSD; the functions bcmp(), bcopy(), appeared in 4.2BSD. BSD
