|
|
|
.Nm cryb_strlcpy

|
function copies the NUL-terminated string pointed to by
|
|
|
|
|
.Va src
|
|
|
|
|
into the buffer pointed to by
|
|
|
|
|
.Va dst .
|
|
|
|
|
The
|
|
|
|
|
.Va size
|
|
|
|
|
argument specifies the total size of the buffer, including the space
|
|
|
|
|
required for the terminating NUL character.
|
|
|
|
|
If the length of the string exceeds the available space, the result is
|
|
|
|
|
truncated.
|
|
|
|
|
In all cases, the destination buffer is properly NUL-terminated.
|
|
|
|
|

function returns the length of the original string.
|
|
|
|
|
If this number is equal to or greater than the value of the
|
|
|
|
|
.Va size
|
|
|
|
|
argument, the string was too long to fit in the buffer.
