PROLOG

       This  manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.  The Linux implementation of this interface may differ (consult the correspond-
       ing Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior), or the interface may not be implemented on Linux.

NAME

       wcsncat - concatenate a wide-character string with part of another

SYNOPSIS

       #include <wchar.h>

       wchar_t *wcsncat(wchar_t *restrict ws1, const wchar_t *restrict ws2,
	      size_t n);

DESCRIPTION

       The wcsncat() function shall append not more than n wide-character codes (a null wide-character code and wide-character codes  that  follow
       it are not appended) from the array pointed to by ws2 to the end of the wide-character string pointed to by ws1. The initial wide-character
       code of ws2 shall overwrite the null wide-character code at the end of ws1. A terminating null wide-character code shall always be appended
       to the result. If copying takes place between objects that overlap, the behavior is undefined.

RETURN VALUE

       The wcsncat() function shall return ws1; no return value is reserved to indicate an error.

ERRORS

       No errors are defined.
