Edit

<cstring>

  • Article

Includes the Standard C library header <string.h> and adds the associated names to the std namespace.

Syntax

#include <cstring>

Remarks

Including this header ensures that the names declared using external linkage in the Standard C library header are declared in the std namespace.

Constants

namespace std {
    using size_t = see below;
}

#define NULL
