NAME

       wmemset - set wide characters in memory

SYNOPSIS

       #include <wchar.h>

       wchar_t *wmemset(wchar_t *ws, wchar_t wc, size_t n);

DESCRIPTION

       The  wmemset()  function  shall  copy  the value of wc into each of the
       first n wide characters of the object pointed to by ws.  This  function
       shall not be affected by locale and all wchar_t values shall be treated
       identically.   The  null  wide  character  and   wchar_t   values   not
       corresponding to valid characters shall not be treated specially.

       If  n is zero, the application shall ensure that ws is a valid pointer,
       and the function shall copy zero wide characters.

RETURN VALUE

       The wmemset() functions shall return the value of ws.
