Initializes characters of a string to a given character. More secure versions of these functions exist; see _strnset_s, _strnset_s_l, _wcsnset_s, _wcsnset_s_l, _mbsnset_s, _mbsnset_s_l.

Important

_mbsnset and _mbsnset_l cannot be used in applications that execute in the Windows Runtime. For more information, see CRT functions not supported with /ZW.

char *_strnset(
   char *str,
   int c,
   size_t count 
);
char *_strnset_l(
   char *str,
   int c,
   size_t count,
   locale_t locale
);
wchar_t *_wcsnset(
   wchar_t *str,
   wchar_t c,
   size_t count 
);
wchar_t *_wcsnset_l(
   wchar_t *str,
   wchar_t c,
   size_t count,
   _locale_t locale
);
unsigned char *_mbsnset(
   unsigned char *str,
   unsigned int c,
   size_t count 
);
unsigned char *_mbsnset_l(
   unsigned char *str,
   unsigned int c,
   size_t count,
   _locale_t locale
);

Parameters

str
String to be altered.
c
Character setting.
count
Number of characters to be set.
locale
Locale to use.

Return Value

Returns a pointer to the altered string.

Remarks

The _strnset function sets, at most, the first count characters of str to c (converted to char). If count is greater than the length of str, the length of str is used instead of count.

_wcsnset and _mbsnset are wide-character and multibyte-character versions of _strnset. The string arguments and return value of _wcsnset are wide-character strings; those of _mbsnset are multibyte-character strings. These three functions behave identically otherwise.

_mbsnset validates its parameters; if str is a null pointer, the invalid parameter handler is invoked, as described in Parameter Validation . If execution is allowed to continue, _mbsnset returns NULL and sets errno to EINVAL. _strnset and _wcsnset do not validate their parameters.

The output value is affected by the setting of the LC_CTYPE category setting of the locale; see setlocale for more information. The versions of these functions without the _l suffix use the current locale for this locale-dependent behavior; the versions with the_l suffix are identical except that they use the locale parameter passed in instead. For more information, see Locale.

Example

// crt_strnset.c
// compile with: /W3
#include <string.h>
#include <stdio.h>

int main( void )
{
   char string[15] = "This is a test";
   /* Set not more than 4 characters of string to be *'s */
   printf( "Before: %s\n", string );
   _strnset( string, '*', 4 ); // C4996
   // Note: _strnset is deprecated; consider using _strnset_s
   printf( "After:  %s\n", string );
}

Before: This is a test
After:  **** is a test
