Copies characters of one string to another. These versions of strncpy, _strncpy_l, wcsncpy, _wcsncpy_l, _mbsncpy, _mbsncpy_l have security enhancements, as described in Security Features in the CRT.

Important

_mbsncpy_s and _mbsncpy_s_l cannot be used in applications that execute in the Windows Runtime. For more information, see CRT functions not supported with /ZW.

Parameters

strDest
Destination string.
numberOfElements
The size of the destination string, in characters.
strSource
Source string.
count
Number of characters to be copied, or _TRUNCATE.
locale
The locale to use.

Return Value

Zero if successful, STRUNCATE if truncation occurred, otherwise an error code.

Error Conditions

strDest	numberOfElements	strSource	Return value	Contents of strDest
NULL	any	any	EINVAL	not modified
any	any	NULL	EINVAL	strDest[0] set to 0
any	0	any	EINVAL	not modified
not NULL	too small	any	ERANGE	strDest[0] set to 0

Remarks

These functions try to copy the first D characters of strSource to strDest, where D is the lesser of count and the length of strSource. If those D characters will fit within strDest (whose size is given as numberOfElements) and still leave room for a null terminator, then those characters are copied and a terminating null is appended; otherwise, strDest[0] is set to the null character and the invalid parameter handler is invoked, as described in Parameter Validation.

There is an exception to the above paragraph. If count is _TRUNCATE, then as much of strSource as will fit into strDest is copied while still leaving room for the terminating null which is always appended.

For example,

char dst[5];

strncpy_s(dst, 5, "a long string", 5);

means that we are asking strncpy_s to copy five characters into a buffer five bytes long; this would leave no space for the null terminator, hence strncpy_s zeroes out the string and calls the invalid parameter handler.

If truncation behavior is needed, use _TRUNCATE or (size – 1):

strncpy_s(dst, 5, "a long string", _TRUNCATE);

strncpy_s(dst, 5, "a long string", 4);

Note that unlike strncpy, if count is greater than the length of strSource, the destination string is NOT padded with null characters up to length count.

The behavior of strncpy_s is undefined if the source and destination strings overlap.

If strDest or strSource is NULL, or numberOfElements is 0, the invalid parameter handler is invoked. If execution is allowed to continue, the function returns EINVAL and sets errno to EINVAL.

wcsncpy_s and _mbsncpy_s are wide-character and multibyte-character versions of strncpy_s. The arguments and return value of wcsncpy_s and mbsncpy_sdo vary accordingly. These six functions behave identically otherwise.

The output value is affected by the setting of the LC_CTYPE category setting of the locale; see setlocale for more information. The versions of these functions without the _l suffix use the current locale for this locale-dependent behavior; the versions with the _l suffix are identical except that they use the locale parameter passed in instead. For more information, see Locale.

In C++, using these functions is simplified by template overloads; the overloads can infer buffer length automatically (eliminating the need to specify a size argument) and they can automatically replace older, non-secure functions with their newer, secure counterparts. For more information, see Secure Template Overloads.

The debug versions of these functions first fill the buffer with 0xFD. To disable this behavior, use _CrtSetDebugFillThreshold.

Generic-Text Routine Mappings

Note

_strncpy_s_l, _wcsncpy_s_l and _mbsncpy_s_l have no locale dependence and are provided just for _tcsncpy_s_l and are not intended to be called directly.

}

Copying 4 chars of 'howdy' to 10-byte buffer dest
    new contents of dest: 'howd'

Copying 5 chars of 'howdy' to 10-byte buffer dest
    new contents of dest: 'howdy'

Copying 6 chars of 'howdy' to 10-byte buffer dest
    new contents of dest: 'howdy'

Destination buffer too small:

Copying 10 chars of 'Hi there!!' to 10-byte buffer dest
Invalid parameter handler invoked: (L"Buffer is too small" && 0)
    new contents of dest: ''

Truncation examples:

Copying 'How do you do?' to 10-byte buffer dest with truncation semantics
    new contents of dest: 'How do yo'
    truncation did occur

Copying 'Howdy.' to 10-byte buffer dest with truncation semantics
    new contents of dest: 'Howdy.'
    truncation did not occur

Secure template overload example:
Invalid parameter handler invoked: (L"Buffer is too small" && 0)
    new contents of dest: ''

// crt_strncpy_s_2.c

   char a[20] = "test";
   char s[20];

   // simple strncpy usage:

   strcpy_s( s, 20, "dogs like cats" );
   printf( "Original string:\n   '%s'\n", s );

   // Here we can't use strncpy_s since we don't 
   // want null termination
   strncpy( s, "mice", 4 );
   printf( "After strncpy (no null-termination):\n   '%s'\n", s );
   strncpy( s+5, "love", 4 );
   printf( "After strncpy into middle of string:\n   '%s'\n", s );

   // If we use strncpy_s, the string is terminated 
   strncpy_s( s, _countof(s), "mice", 4 );
   printf( "After strncpy_s (with null-termination):\n   '%s'\n", s );

}

Original string:
   'dogs like cats'
After strncpy (no null-termination):
   'mice like cats'
After strncpy into middle of string:
   'mice love cats'
After strncpy_s (with null-termination):
   'mice'
