Size-bounded C string copying function.
Copies as many characters from src as will fit in dst, given that dst has at least size bytes of storage space available. Guarantees to NUL-terminate dst if size > 0.
- src
-
the string to copy from
- dst
-
the string to copy to
- size
-
the size of dst (including the terminating NUL)
Returns the length of src. If the return value >= size, there was insufficient space in dst and truncation took place.
