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

       wmemmove -- copy wide characters in memory with overlapping areas

       The functionality described on this reference page is aligned with the
       ISO C standard. Any conflict between the requirements described here
       and the ISO C standard is unintentional. This volume of POSIX.1-2008
       defers to the ISO C standard.

       The _w_m_e_m_m_o_v_e() function shall copy _n wide characters from the object
       pointed to by _w_s_2 to the object pointed to by _w_s_1.  Copying shall take
       place as if the _n wide characters from the object pointed to by _w_s_2 are
       first copied into a temporary array of _n wide characters that does not
       overlap the objects pointed to by _w_s_1 or _w_s_2, and then the _n wide
       characters from the temporary array are copied into the object pointed
       to by _w_s_1.

       This function shall not be affected by locale and all wwcchhaarr__tt values
       shall be treated identically. The null wide character and wwcchhaarr__tt
       values not corresponding to valid characters shall not be treated
       specially.

       If _n is zero, the application shall ensure that _w_s_1 and _w_s_2 are valid
       pointers, and the function shall copy zero wide characters.

RREETTUURRNN VVAALLUUEE
       The _w_m_e_m_m_o_v_e() function shall return the value of _w_s_1.
