/* * Replacement for a missing strlcpy. * * Provides the same functionality as the *BSD function strlcpy, originally * developed by Todd Miller and Theo de Raadt. strlcpy works similarly to * strncpy, except saner and simpler. The result is always nul-terminated * even if the source string is longer than the destination string, and the * total space required is returned. The destination string is not nul-filled * like strncpy does, just nul-terminated. * * Written by Russ Allbery * This work is hereby placed in the public domain by its author. */ #include #include /* * If we're running the test suite, rename strlcpy to avoid conflicts with * the system version. */ #if TESTING # define strlcpy test_strlcpy size_t test_strlcpy(char *, const char *, size_t); #endif size_t strlcpy(char *dst, const char *src, size_t size) { size_t length, copy; length = strlen(src); if (size > 0) { copy = (length >= size) ? size - 1 : length; memcpy(dst, src, copy); dst[copy] = '\0'; } return length; }
