## Name

XmStringNConcat(3X) — XmStringNConcat--A compound string function that appends a specified number of bytes to a compound string XmStringNConcatcompound string functions

## Synopsis

#include <Xm/Xm.h>
XmString XmStringNConcat (`s1, s2, num_bytes`)
XmString `s1`;
XmString `s2`;
int `num_bytes`;

## DESCRIPTION

XmStringNConcat appends a specified number of bytes from `s2` to the end of `s1`, including tags, directional indicators, and separators. It then returns the resulting compound string. The original strings are preserved. The space for the resulting compound string is allocated within the function. The application is responsible for managing the allocated space. The memory can be recovered by calling XmStringFree.

`s1` |  | Specifies the compound string to which a copy of `s2` is appended.
`s2` |  | Specifies the compound string that is appended to the end of `s1`.
`num_bytes` |  | Specifies the number of bytes of `s2` to append to `s1`. If this value is less than the length of `s2`, as many bytes as possible, but possibly fewer than this value, will be appended to `s1` such that the resulting string is still a valid compound string.

## RETURN VALUE

Returns a new compound string.
