No more than <var>len</var> bytes are written to 62<var>dst</var>>. 63 64 <p>If <var>dst</var>> is NULL, no characters are stored. 65 66 <p>If <var>dst</var>> is not NULL, the pointer pointed to by <var>src</var> is updated to point 67to the character after the one that conversion stopped at. If conversion 68stops because a null character is encountered, *<var>src</var> is set to NULL. 69 70 <p>The mbstate_t argument, <var>ps</var>, is used to keep track of the shift state. If 71it is NULL, <code>wcsrtombs</code> uses an internal, static mbstate_t object, which 72is initialized to the initial conversion state at program startup. 73 74 <p>The <code>wcsnrtombs</code> function behaves identically to <code>wcsrtombs</code>, except that 75conversion stops after reading at most <var>nwc</var> characters from the buffer 76pointed to by <var>src</var>. 77 78 <p><br> 79<strong>Returns</strong><br> 80The <code>wcsrtombs</code> and <code>wcsnrtombs</code> functions return the number of bytes 81stored in the array pointed to by <var>dst</var> (not including any terminating 82null), if successful, otherwise it returns (size_t)-1. 83 84 <p><br> 85<strong>Portability</strong><br> 86<code>wcsrtombs</code> is defined by C99 standard. 87<code>wcsnrtombs</code> is defined by the POSIX.1-2008 standard. 88 89 <p><br> 90 91 </body></html> 92 93
