STcopyNMax


Routine

int STcopyNMax (const char Si[], char So[], int N, int Maxchar)

Purpose

Copy N characters characters to a string

Description

This routine is used to copy min(N, strlen(Si)) characters from the input input string to the output string. If min(N, strlen(Si) is greater than Maxchar, a string is truncated at that point and a warning message is printed.

Parameters

    Number of characters in the output string
-> const char Si[]
Input character string
<- char So[]
Output character string. This string is always null terminated, with at most Maxchar characters not including the terminating null character.
-> int N
Number of characters to be transferred
-> int Maxchar
