XmStringNCopy(3X)             X11 SDE 5.4R3.00             XmStringNCopy(3X)


NAME
       XmStringNCopy--A compound string function that creates a copy of a
       compound string

SYNOPSIS
       #include <Xm/Xm.h>

       XmString XmStringNCopy (s1, num_bytes)      XmString  s1;
            int       num_bytes;

DESCRIPTION
       XmStringNCopy creates a copy of s1 that contains a specified number
       of bytes, including tags, directional indicators, and separators.  It
       then returns the resulting compound string.  The original strings are
       preserved.  The space for the resulting compound string is allocated
       within the function.  The application is responsible for managing the
       allocated space.  The memory can be recovered by calling
       XmStringFree.



        s1     Specifies the compound string.

        num_bytes
               Specifies the number of bytes of s1 to copy.  If this value
               is less than the length of s1, as many bytes as possible, but
               possibly fewer than this value, will be appended to s1 such
               that the resulting string is still a valid compound string.


RETURN VALUE
       Returns a new compound string.

RELATED INFORMATION
       XmStringCreate(3X) and XmStringFree(3X).
