_strnset_s, _strnset_s_l, _wcsnset_s, _wcsnset_s_l, _mbsnset_s, _mbsnset_s_l

Initialize characters of a string to a given character. These are versions of _strnset, _strnset_l, _wcsnset, _wcsnset_l, _mbsnset, _mbsnset_l with security enhancements as described in Security Enhancements in the CRT.

errno_t _strnset_s(
   char *str,
   size_t numberOfElements,
   int c,
   size_t count 
);
errno_t _strnset_s_l(
   char *str,
   size_t numberOfElements,
   int c,
   size_t count,
   locale_t locale
);
errno_t _wcsnset_s(
   wchar_t *str,
   size_t numberOfElements,
   wchar_t c,
   size_t count 
);
errno_t _wcsnset_s_l(
   wchar_t *str,
   size_t numberOfElements,
   wchar_t c,
   size_t count,
   _locale_t locale
);
errno_t _mbsnset_s(
   unsigned char *str,
   size_t numberOfElements,
   unsigned int c,
   size_t count 
);
errno_t _mbsnset_s_l(
   unsigned char *str,
   size_t numberOfElements,
   unsigned int c,
   size_t count,
   _locale_t locale
);

Parameters

  • str
    String to be altered.

  • numberOfElements
    The size of the str buffer.

  • c
    Character setting.

  • count
    Number of characters to be set.

  • locale
    Locale to use.

Return Value

Zero if successful, otherwise an error code.

These functions validate their arguments. If str is a null pointer or the size argument is less than or equal to 0, then the invalid parameter handler is invoked, as described in Parameter Validation. If execution is allowed to continue, these functions return EINVAL and set errno to EINVAL.

Remarks

These functions set, at most, the first count characters of str to c. If count is greater than the size of str (that is, numberOfElements), the size is used instead of count.

_wcsnset_s and _mbsnset_s are wide-character and multibyte-character versions of _strnset_s. The string argument of _wcsnset_s is a wide-character string; that of _mbsnset_s is amultibyte-character string. These three functions behave identically otherwise.

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.

The debug versions of these functions first fill the buffer with 0xFD. To disable this behavior, use _CrtSetDebugFillThreshold.

#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_s( string, sizeof(string), '*', 4 );
   printf( "After:  %s\n", string );
}

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