Имя (Name)

stpncpy - copy a fixed-size string, returning a pointer to its
       end

Синопсис (Synopsis)

#include <string.h>

       char *stpncpy(char *restrict dest, const char *restrict src, size_t n);

   Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see
   feature_test_macros(7)):

       stpncpy():
           Since glibc 2.10:
               _POSIX_C_SOURCE >= 200809L
           Before glibc 2.10:
               _GNU_SOURCE

Описание (Description)

The stpncpy() function copies at most n characters from the
       string pointed to by src, including the terminating null byte
       ('\0'), to the array pointed to by dest.  Exactly n characters
       are written at dest.  If the length strlen(src) is smaller than
       n, the remaining characters in the array pointed to by dest are
       filled with null bytes ('\0'), If the length strlen(src) is
       greater than or equal to n, the string pointed to by dest will
       not be null-terminated.

       The strings may not overlap.

       The programmer must ensure that there is room for at least n
       characters at dest.

Возвращаемое значение (Return value)

stpncpy() returns a pointer to the terminating null byte in dest,
       or, if dest is not null-terminated, dest+n.
