NAME

       XmStringNCopy  --  A  compound string function that creates a copy of a
       compound string


SYNOPSIS

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


DESCRIPTION

       This function is obsolete and exists for  compatibility  with  previous
       releases.  XmStringNCopy creates a copy of s1 that contains a specified
       number of bytes, including tags, directional  indicators,  and  separa-
       tors.  It  then  returns  the  resulting  compound string. The original
       strings are preserved.  The function allocates space for the  resulting
       compound string.  The application is responsible for managing the allo-
       cated space.  The application can recover the allocated space by  call-
       ing XmStringFree.

       s1        Specifies the compound string.

       num_bytes Specifies  the  number of bytes of s1 to copy.  If this value
                 is less than the length of s1, 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

       Returns a new compound string.
