| Routine | Required Header | Compatibility |
| _memccpy | <memory.h> or <string.h> | Win 95, Win NT |
For additional compatibility information, see Compatibility in the Introduction.

Return Value
If the character c is copied, _memccpy returns a pointer to the byte in dest that immediately follows the character. If c is not copied, it returns NULL.
Parameters
dest
Pointer to destination
src
Pointer to source
c
Last character to copy
count
Number of characters
Remarks
The _memccpy function copies 0 or more bytes of src to dest, halting when the character c has been copied or when count bytes have been copied, whichever comes first.
Example
/* MEMCCPY.C */
#include <memory.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
char string1[60] = "The quick brown dog jumps over the lazy fox";
void main( void )
{
char buffer[61];
char *pdest;
printf( "Function:\t_memccpy 60 characters or to character 's'\n" );
printf( "Source:\t\t%s\n", string1 );
pdest = _memccpy( buffer, string1, 's', 60 );
*pdest = '\0';
printf( "Result:\t\t%s\n", buffer );
printf( "Length:\t\t%d characters\n\n", strlen( buffer ) );
}
Output
Function: _memccpy 60 characters or to character 's'
Source: The quick brown dog jumps over the lazy fox
Result: The quick brown dog jumps
Length: 25 characters
