size_t mbsrtowcs_l(wchar_t *dst, const char **src, size_t len, mbstate_t *ps, locale_t loc);
mbsrtowcs_l converts a sequence of multi-byte characters that begins in the conversion state described by the object pointed to by ps, from the array indirectly pointed to by src into a sequence of corresponding wide characters If dst is not a null pointer, the converted characters are stored into the array pointed to by dst. Conversion continues up to and including a terminating null character, which is also stored.
Conversion stops earlier in two cases: when a sequence of bytes is encountered that does not form a valid multi-byte character, or (if dst is not a null pointer) when len wide characters have been stored into the array pointed to by dst. Each conversion takes place as if by a call to the mbrtowc function.
If dst is not a null pointer, the pointer object pointed to by src is assigned either a null pointer (if conversion stopped due to reaching a terminating null character) or the address just past the last multi-byte character converted (if any). If conversion stopped due to reaching a terminating null character and if dst is not a null pointer, the resulting state described is the initial conversion state.
