            }

        /* Concatenate s1buf with SIZE characters from s2buf, */
        /* placing the result into s1buf. Then compare s1buf  */
        /* with the expected result in test1.                 */

            wcsncat(s1buf, s2buf, SIZE);

            for (i = 0; i <= S1LENGTH + SIZE - 2; i++) {
                /* Check that each character is correct */
                if (test1[i] != s1buf[i]) {
                    printf("Error in wcsncat\n");
                    exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
                }

            }

            printf("Concatenated string: <%S>\n", s1buf);
        }

      Running the example produces the following result:

        Concatenated string: <abcmnexyz or>
