Hello,

gcc 4.4.4 c89

I have always used strncpy to copy strings. I have never really used memmove or memcpy very much. However, I am just wondering when would you decide whether to use strncpy, memmove, or memcpy?

The code I am writing is for a client/server application. In the documentation they use bcopy. However, could I do the same with the others?

bcopy((char*)server->h_addr,
      (char*)&serv_addr.sin_addr.s_addr,
      server->h_length);

Many thanks,
