memset()函数使用说明

Sets buffers to a specified character.

void *memset(
   void* dest,
   int c,
   size_t count
);

Example
/* MEMSET.C: This program uses memset to
 * set the first four bytes of buffer to "*".
 */

#include <memory.h>
#include <stdio.h>

void main( void )
{
   char buffer[] = "This is a test of the memset function";

   printf( "Before: %s/n", buffer );
   memset( buffer, '*', 4 );
   printf( "After:  %s/n", buffer );
}
Output
Before: This is a test of the memset function
After:  **** is a test of the memset function

In common use：

1 initialization a memory

     Example

         char str[100];
        memset(str,0,100); 

  2清空一个结构类型的变量或数组

struct sample_struct
{
char csName[16];
int iSeq;
int iType;
};
对于变量
struct sample_strcut stTest;

一般情况下，清空stTest的方法：
stTest.csName[0]='/0';
stTest.iSeq=0;
stTest.iType=0;

用memset就非常方便：
memset(&stTest,0,sizeof(struct sample_struct));
