ustrzcat(3alleg4) Allegro manual ustrzcat(3alleg4)

ustrzcat - Concatenates a string to another one, specifying size. Allegro game programming library.

#include <allegro.h>

char *ustrzcat(char *dest, int size, const char *src);

This function concatenates `src' to the end of `dest', whose length in bytes is specified by `size' and which is guaranteed to be null-terminated even when `src' is bigger than `size'.

Note that, even for empty strings, your destination string must have at least enough bytes to store the terminating null character of the string, and your parameter `size' must reflect this. Otherwise, the debug version of Allegro will abort at an assertion, and the release version of Allegro will overrun the destination buffer.

Returns the value of `dest'.
