- .SH NAME
- memccpy
- \(em copy bytes in memory
- .SH SYNOPSIS
- .LP
- .nf
- #include <string.h>
- .P
- void *memccpy(void *restrict \fIs1\fP, const void *restrict \fIs2\fP,
- int \fIc\fP, size_t \fIn\fP);
- .fi
- .SH DESCRIPTION
- The
- \fImemccpy\fR()
- function shall copy bytes from memory area
- .IR s2
- into
- .IR s1 ,
- stopping after the first occurrence of byte
- .IR c
- (converted to an
- .BR "unsigned char" )
- is copied, or after
- .IR n
- bytes are copied, whichever comes first. If copying takes place
- between objects that overlap, the behavior is undefined.
- .SH "RETURN VALUE"
- The
- \fImemccpy\fR()
- function shall return a pointer to the byte after the copy of
- .IR c
- in
- .IR s1 ,
- or a null pointer if
- .IR c
- was not found in the first
- .IR n
- bytes of
- .IR s2 .
- .SH ERRORS
- No errors are defined.

- .SH EXAMPLES
- None.
- .SH "APPLICATION USAGE"
- The
- \fImemccpy\fR()
- function does not check for the overflow of the receiving memory area.
- .SH RATIONALE
- None.
