Locale-Sensitive C/C++ String Operation Function
char *strcat(char *strDestination, const char *strSource);
wchar_t *wcscat(wchar_t *strDestination, const wchar_t *strSource);
unsigned char *_mbscat(unsigned char *strDestination, const unsigned char *strSource);
_TXCHAR *_tcscat(_TXCHAR *strDestination, const _TXCHAR *strSource);
_TXCHAR *_ftcscat(_TXCHAR *strDestination, const _TXCHAR *strSource);
Internationalization (I18n) Function Overview
The strcat function concatenates strSource onto the end of strDestination,
overwriting the null byte at the end of strDestination. The strSource and strDestination arrays cannot overlap.
The caller must ensure strDestination points to a region of memory that is large enough to hold
the concatenated result, including the null terminator.
wcscat is the wide version of the function; its parameters and return are wide character strings.
_mbscat is supported only on Windows platforms and is the multibyte version of the function; its parameters and return are multibyte character strings.
_tcscat and _ftcscat are Windows-only Generic versions of strcat.
I18n Issues
Use the appropriate version of the function as required for internationalization support.
Recommended Replacements*
On Windows platforms, a more secure string function should be used.
On ANSI platforms, call the safer strncat function, if possible.
These are shown as the first choices in the following table:
*If you're already using the recommended function, see I18n Issues for other reasons why Globalyzer is detecting the function.
