WCSCAT(3)                 Linux Programmer's Manual                WCSCAT(3)

NAME         top

       wcscat - concatenate two wide-character strings

SYNOPSIS         top

       #include <wchar.h>
       wchar_t *wcscat(wchar_t *dest, const wchar_t *src);

DESCRIPTION         top

       The wcscat() function is the wide-character equivalent of the
       strcat(3) function.  It copies the wide-character string pointed to
       by src, including the terminating null wide character (L'\0'), to the
       end of the wide-character string pointed to by dest.
       The strings may not overlap.
       The programmer must ensure that there is room for at least
       wcslen(dest)+wcslen(src)+1 wide characters at dest.

RETURN VALUE         top

       wcscat() returns dest.
