function
<cwchar>

wcsncat

wchar_t* wcsncat (wchar_t* destination, const wchar_t* source, size_t num);
Append characters from wide string
Appends the first num wide characters of source to destination, plus a terminating null wide character.

If the length of the C wide string in source is less than num, only the content up to the terminating null wide character is copied.

This is the wide character equivalent of strncat (<cstring>).

Parameters

destination
Pointer to the destination array, which should contain a C wide string, and be large enough to contain the concatenated resulting string, including the additional null wide character.
source
C wide string to be appended.
num
Maximum number of characters to be appended.
size_t is an unsigned integral type.

Return Value

destination is returned.

/* wcsncat example */ #include <wchar.h> int main () { wchar_t wcs1[20]; wchar_t wcs2[20]; wcscpy ( wcs1, L"To be " ); wcscpy ( wcs2, L"or not to be" ); wcsncat ( wcs1, wcs2, 6 ); wprintf ( L"%ls\n", wcs1); return 0; }

Output:
 To be or not
