<string.h>(P)		   POSIX Programmer's Manual		 <string.h>(P)

PROLOG
       This  manual  page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.  The Linux
       implementation of this interface may differ (consult the	 corresponding
       Linux  manual page for details of Linux behavior), or the interface may
       not be implemented on Linux.

NAME
       string.h - string operations

SYNOPSIS
       #include <string.h>

DESCRIPTION
       Some of the functionality described on this reference page extends  the
       ISO C  standard. Applications shall define the appropriate feature test
       macro (see the System Interfaces volume of  IEEE Std 1003.1-2001,  Sec‐
       tion  2.2,  The	Compilation  Environment)  to enable the visibility of
       these symbols in this header.

       The <string.h> header shall define the following:

       NULL   Null pointer constant.

       size_t As described in <stddef.h> .

       The following shall be declared as functions and may also be defined as
       macros. Function prototypes shall be provided.

	      void    *memccpy(void *restrict, const void *restrict, int, size_t);

	      void    *memchr(const void *, int, size_t);
	      int      memcmp(const void *, const void *, size_t);
	      void    *memcpy(void *restrict, const void *restrict, size_t);
	      void    *memmove(void *, const void *, size_t);
	      void    *memset(void *, int, size_t);
	      char    *strcat(char *restrict, const char *restrict);
	      char    *strchr(const char *, int);
	      int      strcmp(const char *, const char *);
	      int      strcoll(const char *, const char *);
	      char    *strcpy(char *restrict, const char *restrict);
	      size_t   strcspn(const char *, const char *);

	      char    *strdup(const char *);

	      char    *strerror(int);

	      int     *strerror_r(int, char *, size_t);

	      size_t   strlen(const char *);
	      char    *strncat(char *restrict, const char *restrict, size_t);
	      int      strncmp(const char *, const char *, size_t);
	      char    *strncpy(char *restrict, const char *restrict, size_t);
	      char    *strpbrk(const char *, const char *);
	      char    *strrchr(const char *, int);
	      size_t   strspn(const char *, const char *);
	      char    *strstr(const char *, const char *);
	      char    *strtok(char *restrict, const char *restrict);

	      char    *strtok_r(char *, const char *, char **);

	      size_t   strxfrm(char *restrict, const char *restrict, size_t);

       Inclusion  of  the  <string.h> header may also make visible all symbols
       from <stddef.h>.

       The following sections are informative.

APPLICATION USAGE
       None.

RATIONALE
       None.

FUTURE DIRECTIONS
       None.
