WSTRNCPY

The function copies the string of a variable of the data type WSTRING and checks whether the string was completely copied.
The function returns
- TRUE if it was possible to copy the complete character string (content of the source array).
- FALSE if the character string was truncated when copying. If the input string is longer than the output string, only the number of characters (including null termination) corresponding to the length of the output string will be copied.
The function stops after Parameterlist.cMaxCharacters
characters in order to avoid an infinite loop.
