<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2>
The
<B>mempcpy</B>()
function is nearly identical to the
<B><A HREF="/cgi-bin/man/man2html?3+memcpy">memcpy</A></B>(3)
function.
It copies
<I>n</I>
bytes from the object beginning at
<I>src</I>
into the object pointed to by
<I>dest</I>.
But instead of returning the value of
<I>dest</I>
it returns a pointer to the byte following the last written byte.
<P>
This function is useful in situations where a number of objects
shall be copied to consecutive memory positions.
<P>
The
<B>wmempcpy</B>()
function is identical but takes
<I>wchar_t</I>
type arguments and copies
<I>n</I>
wide characters.
<A NAME="lbAE">&nbsp;</A>
<H2>RETURN VALUE</H2>
<I>dest</I>
+
<I>n</I>.
<A NAME="lbAF">&nbsp;</A>

first appeared in glibc in version 2.1.
