wcsncat, wcsncat_s - cppreference.com

(1) wchar_t *wcsncat( wchar_t *dest, const wchar_t *src, size_t count ); (since C95)
(until C99) wchar_t *wcsncat( wchar_t *restrict dest,
                  const wchar_t *restrict src, size_t count );
(since C99)

errno_t wcsncat_s( wchar_t *restrict dest, rsize_t destsz,
                   const wchar_t *restrict src, rsize_t count );

(2) (since C11)

1) Appends at most count wide characters from the wide string pointed to by src, stopping if the null terminator is copied, to the end of the character string pointed to by dest. The wide character src[0] replaces the null terminator at the end of dest. The null terminator is always appended in the end (so the maximum number of wide characters the function may write is count+1).

The behavior is undefined if the destination array is not large enough for the contents of both str and dest and the terminating null wide character.

The behavior is undefined if the strings overlap.

2)

Same as

(1)

, except that this function may clobber the remainder of the destination array (from the last wide character written to

destsz

) and that the following errors are detected at runtime and call the currently installed

constraint handler

function:

As with all bounds-checked functions, wcsncat_s is only guaranteed to be available if __STDC_LIB_EXT1__ is defined by the implementation and if the user defines __STDC_WANT_LIB_EXT1__ to the integer constant 1 before including <wchar.h>.
[edit] Parameters dest - pointer to the null-terminated wide string to append to src - pointer to the null-terminated wide string to copy from count - maximum number of wide characters to copy destsz - the size of the destination buffer [edit] Return value

1) returns a copy of dest

2) returns zero on success, returns non-zero on error. Also, on error, writes L'\0' to dest[0] (unless dest is a null pointer or destsz is zero or greater than RSIZE_MAX/sizeof(wchar_t)).

[edit] Notes

Although truncation to fit the destination buffer is a security risk and therefore a runtime constraints violation for wcsncat_s, it is possible to get the truncating behavior by specifying count equal to the size of the destination array minus one: it will copy the first count wide characters and append the null terminator as always: wcsncat_s(dst, sizeof dst/sizeof *dst, src, (sizeof dst/sizeof *dst)-wcsnlen_s(dst, sizeof dst/sizeof *dst)-1);

[edit] Example
#include <wchar.h> 
#include <stdio.h>
#include <locale.h>
 
int main(void) 
{
    wchar_t str[50] = L"Земля, прощай.";
    wcsncat(str, L" ", 1);
    wcsncat(str, L"В добрый путь.", 8); // only append the first 8 wide chars
    setlocale(LC_ALL, "en_US.utf8");
    printf("%ls", str);
}

Possible output:

Земля, прощай. В добрый
