# strcat

String Manipulation Functions

Concatenates two strings.

    char *strcat( char *to, const char *from );

to | The string at the end of which the from string is concatenated.
from | The string concatenated to the end of the to string.

## Return Values

Pointer to the concatenated string (null-terminated).

## Example

The following example uses strcat to append a backslash to the directory name, fullpath. It then appends filename to fullpath.

        #include <string.h>

        char fullpath[1024], * filename = "logfile.txt";
        strcpy(fullpath, "c:\\tmp");
        strcat(fullpath, "\\");
        strcat(fullpath, filename);
        lr_output_message ("Full path of file is %s", fullpath);

    Example: Output:
    Action.c(9): Full path of file is c:\tmp\logfile.txt
