bfcpy \- copies the contents of a bit array into another bit array.

.fi

A bit array is represented by a "struct bitfield". It has two elements: an array of unsigned long integers \fIfield\fR and an unsigned integer \fIsize\fR.

.sp

The \fBbfcpy()\fR function takes pointers to bitfields \fIsrc\fR and \fIdest\fR, and copies the bits from \fIsrc\fR to a properly initialized \fIdest\fR bit. The function returns 0 on success and 1 otherwise.
