NAME 🖥️ mempcpy 🖥️

copy memory area

LIBRARY

Standard C library (libc, -lc)

SYNOPSIS

#define _GNU_SOURCE /* See feature_test_macros(7) */
#include <string.h>
void *mempcpy(void dest[restrict .n], const void src[restrict .n],
 size_t n);
#define _GNU_SOURCE /* See feature_test_macros(7) */
#include <wchar.h>
wchar_t *wmempcpy(wchar_t dest[restrict .n],
 const wchar_t src[restrict .n],
 size_t n);

DESCRIPTION

The mempcpy() function is nearly identical to the memcpy(3) function. It copies n bytes from the object beginning at src into the object pointed to by dest. But instead of returning the value of dest it returns a pointer to the byte following the last written byte.

This function is useful in situations where a number of objects shall be copied to consecutive memory positions.

The wmempcpy() function is identical but takes wchar_t type arguments and copies n wide characters.

RETURN VALUE

dest + n.

        mempcpy(mempcpy(result, o1, s1), o2, s2);
