PROLOG
       This  manual  page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.  The Linux implementation of this interface may differ (con-
       sult the corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior), or the  interface  may  not  be  implemented  on
       Linux.

NAME
       wcscat - concatenate two wide-character strings

SYNOPSIS
       #include <wchar.h>

       wchar_t *wcscat(wchar_t *restrict ws1, const wchar_t *restrict ws2);


DESCRIPTION
       The  wcscat() function shall append a copy of the wide-character string pointed to by ws2 (including the terminating null
       wide-character code) to the end of the wide-character string pointed to by ws1. The initial wide-character  code  of  ws2
       shall  overwrite the null wide-character code at the end of ws1. If copying takes place between objects that overlap, the
       behavior is undefined.

RETURN VALUE
       The wcscat() function shall return ws1; no return value is reserved to indicate an error.

ERRORS
       No errors are defined.
